I don't think the government has ever weaponized the Justice Department to use lawfare the way the Biden administration used it to punish Trump and his allies after he lost power. I think Biden's handlers feared this set a new precedent in the way outgoing administrations may expect to be treated. I hope we haven't reached the Banana Republic level where former leaders must flee their country to avoid imprisonment by the new regime.

A legally-immune upper class. Well said, Sarah. How rare is it that any member of congress gets formally investigated, much less charged, with anything? Makes one wonder if, indeed, we have somehow managed to place into office the most upstanding, impeccable group of individuals imaginable.
