I realize much of political commentary flying around this week is of the ‘all Trump, all the time’ variety — and I’ve offered a few of my own baseline thoughts about the latest indictment, while deferring to legal experts I trust on the matter. The ‘news’ media spent approximately one day in damage control mode for the Bidens on Monday into…
It’s time to impeach Joe Biden.
