Letters: Justice exposed

For centuries American justice was deemed to be an objective exercise in legitimacy, righteousness, impartiality, fairness and reasonableness. On June 24, Lady Justice’s blindfold was ripped off, exposing a dazed, open-eyed and shortsighted renegade arbiter of vigilante justice.

Lady Justice has always worn a blindfold to ensure objectivity. Any justice, especially supreme justice, is supposed to be objective, not subjective, biased or prejudiced by politics, religion, or money. On June 24, Lady Justice sold out America to all three nemeses of America’s long-standing legacy of established precedent and precedence.

America lost, and Lady Justice no longer the objective arbiter, but a partisan political and religious puppet of extremism and fanaticism.

Lady Justice — open-eyed and shortsighted. And America’s voice gagged and bound.

A new and darkening chapter in American history. A precedent of betrayal.

Obsessed

with Trump

Never have we seen anything like the Democrats’ obsession with Donald Trump. He broke them. Trump has been out of office for 18 months and the entire country has taken a definite turn for the worse with Joe Biden in office and the Democrats controlling the House of Representatives and Senate. Yet, it’s still all Trump. Crazy, huh?

It’s just amazing how well our country was run by a businessman (Trump) and how quickly a career politician (Biden) destroyed it.

If you hated America and wanted to see it devastated, you would do exactly what Biden is doing. You would wreck the economy, leave our borders wide open, sell U.S. strategic oil reserves to China, and you would demoralize its citizens. The United Nations just declared that the U.S.-Mexico border is the deadliest in the world. How far we have fallen.

Biden has kept the border open for more than a year and has no plans or desire to secure it. It looks like an intentional destruction of the U.S., not merely incompetence.

Whose fault is it? As a reminder, the states that turned “blue” during the 2020 election are Arizona, Pennsylvania, Georgia and Wisconsin. And the states that violated their own established election laws: Arizona, Pennsylvania, Georgia and Wisconsin. Go figure. If you still hate Trump after this 18-month Biden circus, your commitment to absurdity is impressive.

Burning

money

The Monitor’s article of July 29 on page 7A, “Deal on Capitol Hill could ease seniors’ health costs,” is a reminder to “we the people” by the liberal left, that their age-old false promises never come to fruition.

The word “could” bears witness to their centuries-old classic ploy of enticing voters with false promises, in the name of just getting the votes.

These wolves’ (in sheep clothes) real objective is to obtain the workers’ tax money before elections, to advance their own “God” (“climate change”), open borders and no fossil fuels to advance and preserve their personal elitist agenda for them and their immediate families for generations to come. This is what keeps the Washington swamp alive and well.

Through generations after generations, they have historically burned the people’s trillions of dollars on themselves and their continued power. It’s never gone to the working people. Voters beware!
