Biden’s Attorney General approved an unprecedented raid on a former president’s home, and we still don’t know why. The newscasts are mostly calm, but not so for the Colberts and Scarboroughs. Colbert thinks it’s Christmas, and Scarborough thinks the Fascists are having a Fascist fit.
Some on the Left smelled hypocrisy from the “Lock Her Up” folks on Hillary’s deleted government emails. A truly objective media would apply a single standard to these issues of government documents.
