22 IV 2023: Immunity of the rich and notorious from prosecution

News came today of a number of “irregularities” in the financial disclosures of Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk, the abortion pill nazi. These irregularities, if not mendacious, are at least misleading, but what else can we expect from a MAGA appointment. MAGA sectaries feel that they, like their Führer Trump or Justice Silent Clarence, are above the law, or, perhaps more correctly, outside the law.

We’ve had so many shocking disclosures about the ruthlessness and the extent of the Jan 6 insurrection, and yet none of the really big bugs has been prosecuted. One of them, the quondam wrestler Rep. Gym Jordan, is chair of the House Judiciary Committee where is doing his best to cover up his crimes.

Trump and the Trumpettes show that Americans’ “equality before the law” is just so much window dressing. The rich, those whose crimes are too embarrassing politically, super-sleazes of all kinds can evade prosecution indefinitely by exploiting a legal system that, in fact, favors criminals more than their victims. If I were as guilty as these Jan 6th conspirators I would be in prison now.
