As Joe Biden’s disastrous presidency wound down, he searched for methods to show his center finger on the individuals dwelling in Flyover Nation—notably those that voted for Donald Trump. Handing out prestigious honors to his political cronies was the right technique.
Thus, President Joe Biden awarded George Soros and Hillary Clinton the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian award.
Let’s begin with George Soros, one of many wealthiest males in America and a megadonor to the Democratic Get together. Soros bankrolled so-called progressive candidates for numerous district lawyer positions in lots of the nation’s cities.
As reported by Thomas Hogan, Soros-backed candidates gained D.A. races in “Manhattan, Los Angeles, Chicago,
Philadelphia, Boston, Portland, San Francisco, . . . and different inhabitants hubs.” Hogan quoted an estimate that 20 % of Individuals lived in districts served by prosecutors that Soros supported.
These prosecutors promised to give attention to critical crimes relatively than divert sources to prosecute non-violent offenders accused of petty offenses. However, as a Heritage Basis article noticed:
[O]nce these candidates get elected, they rapidly flip their anodyne statements into one thing totally different and have interaction in prosecutorial nullification by refusing to prosecute complete classes of crimes, watering down felonies, refusing to ask for bail, and refusing to prosecute violent juveniles as adults.
The results of this tragically flawed technique was that crime charges went up in lots of the cities the place Soros-assisted prosecutors held workplace.
After which there’s Hillary, who additionally obtained a Presidential Medal of Freedom. It’s now well-known that Hillary and her presidential marketing campaign created and circulated the false story that Trump was in collusion with the Russians in the course of the 2016 presidential marketing campaign.
The Wall Avenue Journal summarized this tawdry story in a 2022 editorial:
[T]he Clinton marketing campaign created the [Trump-Russia collusion] allegation, fed it to a credulous press that failed to substantiate the allegations however ran with them anyway, then promoted the story as if it was respectable information. The marketing campaign additionally delivered the claims to the FBI, giving journalists one other excuse to painting the accusations as critical and maybe true.
Because the Wall Avenue Journal accurately famous:
[T]he Russia-Trump narrative that Mrs. Clinton sanctioned did huge hurt to the nation. It disgraced the FBI, humiliated the press, and despatched the nation on a three-year investigation to nowhere. Vladimir Putin by no means got here near doing as a lot disinformation injury.
Biden’s award to those two disreputable public figures was his approach of displaying his full contempt for the American individuals. However perhaps this disgraceful episode may have an epilogue. If there’s any justice on this planet, maybe Hillary will change into the primary Medal of Freedom winner to be disbarred.
