Dear Editor,

Numerous “progressives,” in print or speech, continue dedication to hypocrisy. It”s obvious as they label President Trump an “oligarch” or a “pathological liar.”

Bernie Sanders,accompanied by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) has regularly urged his “fans” to oppose the Trump “oligarchy.”

“Oligarchy” refers to a government run by a small group of “power players” with little regard for those outside of their circle. Consider the following.

No “red state” ever tried to remove Biden or Harris from a ballot. But numerous “blue” states tried to remove Trump.

In 2021, Biden’s “DOJ” and FBI raided Trump’s home. Of the 14,000 documents found, only 102 were classified.

As president, Trump never ordered a raid on Biden’s home. Biden illegally removed classified documents as a senator and as vice president. Only a president has powers to declassify. Special counsel Robert Hur declared Biden culpable but would not prosecute a “well-meaning elderly man with a poor memory.” Was he elderly all those years as a senator?

In the 2020 campaign, Biden”s surrogates rounded up 51 “intelligence authorities” to falsely claim that son Hunter’s incriminating laptop was a “set-up” by Russia.

As a former and current president,Trump issued roughly 1,700 pardons. In only four years, Biden issued about 4,245 pardons,many by autopen. It’s debatable whether Biden had full knowledge of these pardons. Trump never sicked his DOJ on political opponents. But Biden”s sycophants conducted “lawfare” against Trump including sham trials.

The previous items are only a partial list. They suggest that Biden and associates are the actual oligarchs regardless of Bernie”s sophomoric rants.

The “No Kings” protests were simply anti-Trump. Most protesters should know that a president can never be a monarch due to “checks and balances” with congress and the supreme court. Many likely miss the Biden years. Even incompetency seems to have fans.

Who’s really the pathological liar?

Biden falsely claimed to have inherited a 9% inflation rate. He told us he’d never pardon son, Hunter. He claimed to know nothing about Hunter’s businesses, then had to change his story to merely being uninvolved in those businesses. The book “All the President’s Money,” by James Comer (House Oversight Committee) damaged those claims, complete with copies of subpoenaed bank statements.

Biden’s “border czar” Alejandro Mayorkas, denied the border was open. But daily news videos showed hordes of illegal migrants crossing with no effective vetting. In one late term speech, Biden claimed credit for 500,000 EV charging stations. Again, partial list.

Aside from Biden, never forget the “Russian Collusion” hoax, a package of lies enabled by John Brennan, James Comey, the Hillary Clinton campaign and others.

Those living in glass houses shouldn’t throw rocks.
