The "issue" behind the recent indictment of Donald Trump is not his innocence or guilt; nope. Not at all. If fact, throughout U.S. history, "innocence" has never been the cornerstone of U.S. jurisprudence. For example, Nebraska law enforcement, and especially the Courts, typically and intentionally act as an advocate for the victim, which demonstrates bias and failure to comply with its responsibility to act as an "objective" minister of justice: Neb. Rev. Stat. § 3-503.8. Special responsibilities of a prosecutor. As prosecutor, the Court shall: (a) refrain from prosecuting a charge that the prosecutor knows is not supported by probable cause; [1] A prosecutor has the responsibility of a minister of justice and not simply that of an advocate.
Pay attention: The Court is supposed to be "objective," and not an "advocate for the defense or prosecution.
Donald Trump has been indicted for a "business expense" payment of $130,000 to porn star Stormy Daniels in 2016. The payment was legal - but supposedly recording it as a business expense was not. Falsifying business records is illegal in New York. Oh, really? So, let's connect the dots:
1. If payment is illegal, isn't receipt of such equally illegal; if not why not? Plus, non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) are mutually bidding; therefore, why isn't Stormy Daniels being charged for complicity for receipt of funds as a . . . prostitute? Did Daniels make a "deal" with the prosecutor to redefine her "services" as not "business" related? By the way, when did the world's oldest profession stop being a "business?"
2. Without regard to where Trump and Daniels "consummated" their sexual dalliance, as reported by Matt katz on December 27, 2022 in his gothamist.com article, "There used to be tens of thousands of prostitution arrests annually in NYC. Now? About 100," as New York City reversed how it polices prostitution, going from 20,000 annual arrests in 1985 to barely more than 100 in 2022! As reported by the U.S. Census, the population of New York City as of April 1, 2020 was 8,804,190. So, although the "issue" of the indictment supposedly has nothing to do with prostitution, do the math, Donald Trump is one of the lucky 100 men and women who recorded payment for sexual activity as a business expense. Will a Freedom of Information request of the New York City prosecutor reveal a robust listing of men and women similarly indicted for a "business expense" payment to porn stars or prostitutes; and if not, why not?
3. As established in both public and private sector environments, excluding criminal acts, "confidentiality" is a legitimate "business expense," and without regard to the specific nature of the confidentiality. Trump legally sought to secure confidentiality of the "dalliance" leading into his 2016 presidential campaign; thereby beyond the jurisdiction of the New York City prosecutor.
4. When a politically-bias prosecutor exercises his "discretion" to go back seven-(7) years and indict Donald Trump, why didn't or hasn't some politically-bias prosecutor(s) exercised their "discretion" to indict former president William Clinton? No, "Statute of Limitations" does not apply nor does jurisdiction, because its a common practice for law enforcement, prosecutors, judges, and legislatures to "selectively pick," or create, or amend laws to achieve their religious (only non-Christian lands could be colonized), racial (only White men were allowed to vote), sexist (abortion), and plethora of other interests, especially financial. Here's an overview of some of the "known" sexual payments and dalliances made by former "Democratic" President William Clinton:
PAULA JONES
Paula Corbin Jones (born Paula Rosalee Corbin; September 17, 1966) is a former Arkansas state employee who sued U.S. President Bill Clinton for sexual harassment. The Paula Jones case precipitated Clinton's impeachment and acquittal by the Senate on February 12, 1999. Charges of perjury and obstruction of justice were brought against Clinton. Eventually, the court dismissed the Paula Jones harassment lawsuit, before trial, on the grounds that Jones failed to demonstrate any damages. However, while the dismissal was on appeal, Clinton entered into an out-of-court settlement by agreeing to pay Jones $850,000.
GENNIFER FLOWERS
Gennifer Flowers (born January 24, 1950) is an American model and actress who obtained notoriety after revealing a sexual relationship with former U.S. President Bill Clinton. In January 1998, Bill Clinton testified under oath that he had sexual relations with Ms. Flowers. Prior to Bill Clinton's presidency, she also posed nude for Penthouse magazine and was an actress in two films and one TV show.
JUANITA BROADDRICK
Juanita Broaddrick is a former nursing home administrator from Arkansas. She alleged in 1999 that United States President Bill Clinton had raped her two decades earlier. President Clinton's attorney, David Kendall, denied the allegations on his client's behalf. Clinton refused to comment further on the issue.
LESLIE MILLWEE
In October 2016, Leslie Millwee accused Bill Clinton of sexually assaulting her three times in 1980. Millwee was then an employee at a now-defunct Arkansas based television station, and Clinton was then governor of Arkansas. Millwee told Breitbart News that on each of the three occasions, Clinton came up behind her and fondled her breasts, and on the second occasion, he rubbed his crotch against her and came to orgasm.
KATHLEEN WILLEY
In 1998, Kathleen Willey alleged Clinton groped her without consent in the White House Oval Office in 1993. Kenneth Starr granted her immunity for her testimony in his separate inquiry. Linda Tripp, the Clinton Administration staffer who secretly taped her phone conversations with Monica Lewinsky in order to expose the latter's affair with the president, testified under oath that Willey's sexual contact with President Clinton in 1993 was consensual, that Willey had been flirting with the president, and that Willey was happy and excited following her 1993 encounter with Clinton. Six other friends of Willey confirmed Tripp's account in sworn testimony, stating that Willey had sought a sexual relationship with the president. Ken Starr, who had deposed Willey in the course of investigating Clinton's sexual history, determined that she had lied under oath repeatedly to his investigators. Starr and his team therefore concluded that there was insufficient evidence to pursue her allegations further.[citation needed] In 2007, Willey published a book about her experiences with the Clintons.
MONICA LEWINSKY
Monica Samille Lewinsky (born July 23, 1973) is a former White House intern with whom President Bill Clinton admitted to having had what he called an "inappropriate relationship" while she worked at the White House in 1995 and 1996. The affair and its repercussions, which included Clinton's impeachment, became known as the Lewinsky scandal.
Pay attention, Pay attention: The Court is supposed to be "objective," and not an "advocate for the defense or prosecution; so why is it "okay" to prosecute President Trump for his "sexual payments and dalliances," but it's not "okay" to prosecute President Clinton for his extremely robust history of "sexual payments and dalliances"? Well??
Keep in mind, Hillary Rodham Clinton served as U.S. Senator from New York from January 3, 2001 to January 21, 2009, and and she and her husband shared a residence in New York during this time, and also operated the Clinton Foundation located at 1633 Broadway 5th Floor New York, NY 10019 since 2001. Why hasn't a zealous New York-based prosecutor RETROACTIVELY pursued "legacy" criminal action against President Clinton, and Hillary Clinton as a co-conspirator, for his "sexual" business expenses? Well? Well?Is someone going to dig up JFK and prosecute him for his sex-based "business" dalliances?
We should expect a zealous Republican prosecutor, or Republican controlled state legislature, or Republican controlled Congress to "selectively pick," or create, or amend laws to prosecute Bill Clinton for his past sexual dalliances, right? Why not? Or, will Democrats continue to apply Teflon so that:
>> criminal charges don't stick to President Clinton;
>> criminal charges didn't stick to Hillary's trading of cattle futures contracts that turned her $1,000 investment
into nearly $100,000 when she stopped trading after ten months;
>> criminal charges didn't stick to Hillary's handling of the missing 33,000 emails;
>> criminal charges didn't stick to Hillary for the deaths of two of the Americans killed in the 2012 attack on the U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya; and
>> criminal charges have yet to stick to Joe Biden's son, Hunter, for his nefarious financial dealings.
Nebraska's Revised Statute § 5-301.0. Canon 1. establishes, "A judge shall uphold and promote the independence, integrity, and impartiality of the judiciary, and shall avoid impropriety and the appearance of impropriety. Nebraska's Revised Statute 25-824 establishes an objective judge would objectively assess Trump's prosecution as a frivolous pleading, bias, and total nonsense.Justice is supposed to be fair, and objective? Plus, don't forget, Neb. Rev. Stat. § 3-503.8. "a prosecutor has the responsibility of a minister of justice and not simply that of an advocate." You got that?
Pay attention: So, if prosecutors, judges, and legislatures can unilaterally go back and "selectively pick," or create, or amend laws to achieve their own malicious objectives, why haven't Nebraska's lily-White prosecutors and judiciary gone back and prosecuted persons responsible for the murder of Will Brown? Keep in mind, a bunch of people, and their descendants, financially benefited from the murder of Will Brown, including the Omaha World-Herald that sold a lot of newspapers with the front page photo below. Click the image below for a closer look at the map detailing where White citizens of Omaha literally dragged Brown's body all over downtown Omaha as they beat, stabbed, shot, hung, burned - murdered Will Brown.

Again, more than 120 White people were indicted for involvement in the beating, stabbing, shooting, hanging, burning and murder of Will Brown, but not one person was successfully prosecuted, and all White people were eventually released after serving no term of imprisonment. Such is the character and scope of malicious prosecution in Nebraska's lily-White law enforcement and judiciary.
Is the denial of justice to Will Brown comparable to the malicious prosecution constantly being targeted at Donald Trump? Yes, absolutely, because race is not the "issue," and neither is the extent of atrocities that represent the miscarriage of justice upon Will Brown. The "issue" is justice is supposed to consistently be fair, and objective.
The criminal trial of O.J. Simpson proved when a person, who just happened to be Black, has the "privilege" of money, power, and the "right" connections to purchase "high quality" legal counsel it's much easier to "prove" one's innocence. Unfortunately, without regard to race, sex, age or other factors, a lot of people never got a fair shake, like:
Sheldon Thomas, 35, had listened as a prosecutor with the district attorney’s office outlined the lies, misdirections and dismissals by those in power that persuaded a jury to put him behind bars for the past 18 years! He had been charged and sentenced to 25 years to life for a murder of a 14-year-old boy that prosecutors now say he did not commit. New York Times, March 9, 2023

Ronnie Long, sentenced to 80 years in prison for rape and burglary, was released last week after spending 44 years behind bars. A federal appeals court determined that Ronnie Long, who has always maintained his innocence, had been a victim of "extreme and continuous police misconduct." August 31, 2020 / 10:13 AM / CBS News
In 1931, Alexander McClay Williams became the youngest person to be executed in Pennsylvania, when his death sentence was carried out by electric chair at the age of 16.
In October 2022 – more than 90 years after he was sentenced to death – Alexander was exonerated by then-Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf, as reported in the Philadelphia Inquirer as, “an acknowledgement that the charges against him should never have been brought,” according to a statement from the Delaware County District Attorney’s office in 2022.
More than 150 people were exonerated in the US in 2023. Of those, nearly 84% were people of color, nearly 61% of the exonerees were Black and the most frequent factor in the exonerations was official misconduct, according to data from The National Registry of Exonerations.

Pay attention: Compared to the rest of the world, this is what "justice" looks like in the United States of America.
Pay attention: We live in a country where law enforcement and the judiciary has always been highly subjective and routinely inconsistent; where sentencing is typically arbitrary and varies from city-to-city, county-to-county, state-to-state, and sentencing for federal crimes typically do not align with sentencing for the exact same crime within individual states. For example, consider how Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas "interprets" the receipt of . . . gifts.
Given the aforementioned, before committing a crime and the likelihood of being caught, a "smart" criminal should "look before leaping" and shop around to discover which cities, counties, states, and federal jurisdictions "offer the best deal" for:
>> Most lenient prosecution;
>> Most lenient sentencing;
>> Most luxurious incarceration facilities and amenities; and
>> Most liberal release programs.
We live in a country where law enforcement and the judiciary is comparable to buying a car, where you can shop around for a better deal; or as with health care, shop around and get a second opinion. Think about it, there's as much inconsistency in law enforcement and the judiciary as there is in new and used car sales, health care and medical treatment, real estate sales and property values, etc. We live in a country where . . .
That's right, White men, who represent a
constantly shrinking population of 30% or less,
have always dictated every law, every rule,
every policy. This "systemic privilege" is not
evidence of a democratic republic, but validates
the perpetual existence of crony capitalism.
Given the "push" to privatize Medicare, social security, and other "government-based" programs, where's the "push" to privatize the judiciary and law enforcement? Would not doing so be equally as cost efficient and place control with "the people" to competitively shop around for the best products and services.Well?
Again, the "issue" behind the recent indictment of Donald Trump is not his innocence or guilt; nope. Note the following graphic:
It's extremely foolish to believe the indictment of Donald Trump has no impact on Black people; oh, it certanly does! You do know the "rule" don't you? If not, click here.
Pay attention: You do remember, don't you, what Obama said about "people in power," right?
The "malicious prosecution" of Donald Trump, or of anyone, is an insult to the intelligence of reasonable, fair minded people;
and historically, eventually, it will backfire.
By the way, just in case you still don't comprehend the overt subjectively, racism, and sexism of malicious prosecution . . .
