The circus

Trump got indicted; Kevin McCarthy ripped Biden for turning the Justice Department into a ‘weapon’ to sink the man running against him; Trump, sheepishly, said in an ad, “I’m an innocent man.”

Biden fired back, denied he ever told the Justice Department what to do when it came to indicting Trump then, raising his eyebrows, grinning, boasted, “I’m honest.”

Both Mike Pence and Joe Biden got caught with top-secret documents in boxes in their homes – both admitted they’d made a mistake, returned the documents. Trump marched down a different road, compounded a mistake – and got indicted.

The same day Marjorie Taylor Greene and Anna Paulina Luna walked out of a briefing in Congress – about a paid informant who’d told the FBI Biden took a $5 million bribe from a Ukrainian oligarch.

Luna said Biden was “100% guilty.”

Mocking her, an hour later Biden said at a press conference: “Where’s the money? It’s a bunch of malarky.” 

FBI informants, bribes, indictments, malarky, all on the same day – the circus is back in town.
