How about the Dijon mustard scandal? Remember that one, libbies?

Arugula. Never forget.

Oh, the horror of the arugula! I completely forgot about that.

The president’s dog also growled at someone.

That was another major Democratic scandal.

If you are talking about Biden's dog, he did a hell of a lot more than growl.

Good. Maybe St. Louis can finally take some control of their crime by actually punishing offenders.

Hopefully, there are a few other cities who can rid themselves of prosecutors who play the role of defense attorneys.

Yes, very weird. Apparently, this is a pattern for him. What is his problem? In addition to claiming credits he's not entitled to, he is consistently late paying his taxes.

As for their late payments, publicly available copies of property tax bills for Brown and Schultz’s Cleveland home show fees for missing deadlines on their 2022, 2021, 2019, 2018, 2015 and 2014 taxes. Two penalties related to their 2014 tax bill triggered the delinquency.

Denver Democrat socialist councilwoman Candi CdeBaca wants white owned businesses taxed more than black owned businesses. A racial tax.

Violates the Equal Protection Clause of the U.S. Constitution.

I read an article about him that said the average sentence for this was 6 months. I get that it’s only possession, not creation of it and not committing the rapes themselves, but damn, how is that the standard?

This is a glaring example of the double standards in our justice system. Shame on Garland.

Last week, the Justice Department announced that it would not charge Rachael Rollins, the U.S. Attorney for the District of Massachusetts, despite a referral from the DOJ’s Office of the Inspector General (OIG), which found evidence that she lied to investigators and may have improperly sought to influence an election. Rollins resigned from office on Friday.

The OIG released detailed findings against Rollins for allegedly seeking to influence a Suffolk County, Mass., district attorney election last year. She also was accused by the OIG of lying under oath during an investigation into the matter. The report states that "on December 16, 2022, pursuant to the Inspector General Act, 5 U.S.C. § 404(d), the OIG referred the false statements allegation to the Department for a prosecutive decision. On January 6, 2023, the Department informed the OIG that it declined prosecution.”

According to the OIG, Rollins sought to help Boston City Councilman Ricardo Arroyo in the Democratic primary for Suffolk’s district attorney by providing derogatory information to the Boston Globe and Boston Herald regarding his opponent, then-interim D.A. Kevin Hayden. The OIG said the information included “non-public, sensitive” DOJ material that Rollins acquired as a result of her federal position. The material suggested that Hayden was being investigated for public corruption.

The OIG further found that Rollins leaked more material after Arroyo lost to Hayden.

The OIG accused Rollins of violating a host of Standards of Ethical Conduct for Employees of the Executive Branch, including Section 2635.702 (the use “of public office for private gain”) and Section 2635.703 (the use “of nonpublic information”).

The most serious charge was that Rollins “falsely testified under oath … when she denied” providing the non-public information to the Herald reporter.

The investigation also found an array of other violations, including disregarding ethical warnings on political activities and soliciting expensive sports tickets.

What is most striking about the OIG report is that Rollins took some of these steps after barely being confirmed by the U.S. Senate because questions were raised over her judgment and partisanship. Rollins was confirmed in 2021 after Vice President Kamala Harris cast a tie-breaking vote due to all 50 Republican senators opposing her nomination. Every Democratic senator voted for her despite the concerns, including a video from January 2021 in which she threatened the arrest of reporters.

The DOJ’s declination of charges follows a similar pattern that suggests a higher threshold standard applied by prosecutors in charging one of their own.
