What Rule of Law?
by Karl Denninger Market-Ticker.org
The “hearing” yesterday was one of the more-infuriating things I’ve seen on CSPAN….. ever.
The Democrats on the committee kept trying to deflect. It was all they had; any sort of question about the actual subject matter, that is Hunter Biden getting special treatment, was nuclear and they knew it. So they played the race card (how, exactly, do you do that when Hunter is white?) They tried to claim there were no receipts — which blew up in their face when MTG showed a literal receipt for an airline ticket and a picture of the woman it was bought for obviously giving Hunter a hummer while on said trip; yes, the actual human body part was blacked out but there was utterly no doubt what was going on.
That act, by the way, is federally illegal: The Mann Act dating back to 1910 makes it a federal crime to transport someone across state lines for the purpose of prostitution and carries up to a 10 year prison term upon conviction. That alone is enough for an indictment; it was passed to give the federal government tools to stop sex trafficking. Facially-sufficient evidence of said violation, demonstrating probable cause for all to see, was produced in public during the hearing so where is the indictment?
