The Ben Shapiro Show – Ep. 1776 – MORE Trump Charges?!

Intro

In this episode of “The Ben Shapiro Show,” Ben discusses the latest charges against former President Donald Trump, the collapsing plea deals of Hunter Biden, and the alleged censorship of Facebook by the Biden White House. He also explores the double standards of justice and the ongoing political prosecutions in America.

Main Takeaways

Trump Charges

• Jack Smith launches four new charges against Trump, including the tunnel Trump case and two more cases related to electoral pressure and classified documents.
• Prosecutors know that Trump’s claim that he was waving around maps of a golf course was false, and that the document was actually attack plans for Iran.
• Trump allegedly told an aide to have surveillance footage from his Mar-a-Lago club deleted to avoid turning it over to a grand jury, and a maintenance worker named Carlos de Olaviera was charged as the third defendant in the case.
• The collapsing Hunter Biden plea deals could spell vulnerability for Joe Biden.

Biden White House and Facebook Censorship

• House Republicans reveal how the Biden White House pushed censorship on Facebook.
• Facebook removed COVID-19 related content in response to pressure from the Biden administration, including posts about the virus being man-made.
• The Biden administration pressured social media companies to censor COVID-related content, including jokes about the vaccine, which is a violation of the First Amendment.

Double Standards of Justice

• Trump mishandled classified documents, but he was not actively spying for China or Russia.
• Hillary Clinton did the same thing as Trump but wasn’t prosecuted, which raises questions about the prosecution of Trump.
• Although evidence suggests Trump committed a crime, the question of whether he should be prosecuted is separate from whether he fulfilled the elements of the crime.

Political Prosecutions and Indictments

• This is the most perilous political prosecution in American history, with the current president’s DOJ prosecuting the guy he just ran against and his probable future opponent in the 2024 race.
• Fulton County District Attorney Fanny Wallace plans to charge Trump with crimes, including witness tampering, in connection to attempts to overturn the electoral loss.
• Lawyers for Trump met with members of Jack Smith’s team in anticipation of a potential indictment over his efforts to overturn the 2020 election results.

Summary

Trump Charges and Hunter Biden Plea Deals

Former President Donald Trump is facing four new charges, including mishandling classified documents and alleged attempts to obstruct justice. These charges come in the midst of collapsing plea deals for Hunter Biden, which may pose a vulnerability for President Joe Biden. The question of double standards of justice arises as Hillary Clinton, who also mishandled classified documents, was not prosecuted. The ongoing political prosecutions and indictments raise concerns about the impartiality and fairness of the justice system.

Biden White House and Facebook Censorship

House Republicans reveal how the Biden White House pressured Facebook to censor content related to COVID-19, including posts about the virus’s origins and vaccine jokes. This raises concerns about the violation of the First Amendment and the influence of the government on social media platforms. The alleged censorship highlights the power dynamics between the government and technology companies.

Political Prosecutions and Indictments

The ongoing political prosecutions, such as the charges against Trump by Fulton County District Attorney Fanny Wallace, raise questions about the impartiality of the justice system. The intent necessary to convict Trump of a crime may be difficult to prove, leading to concerns about politically motivated prosecutions. These indictments have the potential to impact Trump’s political career, but they do not seem to be hurting him with Republican voters.

Conclusion

The latest charges against Trump, the collapsing plea deals of Hunter Biden, and the alleged Facebook censorship by the Biden White House highlight the complex dynamics of politics and justice in America. The double standards of justice and the ongoing political prosecutions raise concerns about the fairness and impartiality of the legal system. These developments have significant implications for the future of American politics and the public’s trust in the justice system.
