Joe Biden Began Rounding Up Trump Supporters With This FBI Arrest<\/h1>\n

Black Eye Politics<\/p>\n

Thousands of troops patrol the Capitol while Democrats prepare to put the opposition party leader on political trial.<\/p>\n

In his inaugural address, Joe Biden declared 75,000,000 Americans are white supremacists and domestic terrorists.<\/p>\n

And now Joe Biden began rounding up Trump supporters with this FBI arrest.<\/p>\n

Acting U.S. attorney in Brooklyn, Seth DuCharme, announced the\u00a0FBI<\/a>\u00a0arrested 31-year-old Trump supporter Doug Mackey who was known as the prominent pro-Trump Twitter account posting under the alias \u201cRicky Vaughn\u201d\u2014a nod to Charlie Sheen\u2019s character from the popular \u201880s movie \u201cMajor League\u201d\u2014during the 2016 election.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors claimed Vaughn\u2019s crime was posting memes online that the feds alleged tried to trick Democrat voters into casting ballots by text message.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith Mackey\u2019s arrest, we serve notice that those who would subvert the democratic process in this manner cannot rely on the cloak of Internet anonymity to evade responsibility for their crimes,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0DuCharme declared.<\/p>\n

Mackey now faces 10 years in prison, but his arrest just one week after\u00a0Joe Biden<\/a>\u00a0and his cadre of loyalists assumed control of the Department of Justice struck many Americans as the Biden administration unleashing the full force and power of federal law enforcement on their political opponents.<\/p>\n

Murtaza M. Hussain of the left-wing Intercept worried that this\u00a0\u201cArrest for social media posts from 2016 suggests that there was a file sitting around on this person that could be activated if political circumstances called for it. U.S. Capitol attack perhaps a precipitating event like September 11th for dusting off things to show action.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

MSNBC\u2019s far-left primetime host Chris Hayes agreed that the suspicious timing of the arrest suggested the Biden administration engaged in retaliation against their political opponents.<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah I\u2019ve got some questions about why this case wasn\u2019t brought sooner,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0Hayes wrote in response to Hussain on social media.<\/p>\n

In an article announcing the charges, the Washington Post all but admitted the Justice Department and the FBI waited for Donald Trump to be out of office to begin arresting his supporters.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Justice Department under President Donald Trump faced extensive criticism from the president and other Republicans for pursuing criminal cases connected to the 2016 election \u2014 most notably the investigation led by Robert S. Mueller III, who spent two years examining Russia\u2019s interference in that presidential contest and whether anyone in Trump\u2019s campaign conspired with those efforts,\u201d<\/em> the Washington Post reported.<\/p>\n

In the complaint, the Justice Department presented no actual evidence anyone supposedly duped by Mackey\u2019s meme didn\u2019t end up casting a real ballot.<\/p>\n

The statute prosecutors cited to arrest Mackey was originally intended to prevent the Klan and other violent groups from forcibly preventing black Americans from voting.<\/p>\n

But the timing and nature of the arrest\u2014Mackey was best known for posting goofy memes such as photoshopping a red MAGA hat on pop star Taylor Swift\u2019s head\u2014suggested to both liberals and conservatives that in Joe Biden\u2019s America, the First Amendment was suspended for anyone that disagreed with the Democrat Party and that there would be a government crackdown on Joe Biden\u2019s political opponents.<\/p>\n
