GARLAND NIXON—The judicial and political persecution of Donald Trump, violating prosecutorial discretion, and culminating recently with his indictment for a ridiculously insignificant offense yet to be proved, certifies the politicization of the courts to suit the secret agenda of the deep state and its establishment organs, chiefly the Democratic party, FBI, mass media, and CIA.

The people are done with the “neoliberal” model of governance and its repugnant hypocrisy and sociopathy.
