Is running for president a get-out-of-jail-free card?
Some experts are accusing the system of being unfair after one of the 19 co-defendants in the racketeering case that includes former president Donald Trump out of Fulton County, Georgia, may have his bail revoked.
A motion filed by District Attorney Fani Willis on Wednesday accuses Harrison Floyd of intimidating witnesses and co-defendants.
One of the people in Floyd's alleged path was election worker Ruby Freeman who on Jan. 4, 2021, who was told by Floyd that she “needed protection.” He leaned on her to make false statements about election fraud, according to the indictment.
The notion that Floyd might be incarcerated while Trump gets to stump around the country has some experts crying foul.
"Equal Treatment," asks former federal prosecutor Andrew Weissmann in a tweet. "Let's say you agree with the below motion to revoke Floyd's bail, how is it that the same motion has not been made as to defendant Donald J. Trump, who has engaged in at least as threatening conduct and indirect communications as that alleged against Floyd?"
Former Deputy Assistant Attorney General Harry Litman also pointed to the ginger handling of Trump compared to Floyd. "There's a secondary audience for this motion, and he's running to be President of the United States," he tweeted.

Trump has been indicted in four different venues for a total of 91 crimes, of which there appears to be overwhelming evidence of guilt; there has yet to be any evidence presented for a crime committed by Biden and he has not been indicted. Until that happens, Biden won't go to trial, while Trump will.

Capt Gregory Prickett there’s mountain of evidence against the biden crime family which the FBI/DOJ actively shall/hide. Going after political opponents is akin to socialism/communism which the Dems want, not free/fair elections

Sgt Tim Kretzschmar - OK, show us the evidence. As to the socialism BS, there's only one candidate who has suggested suspending the Constitution and who is using fascist language.
