https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/poli...e12c3f1f7246cbba1fb9df204b9c18&ei=11From the LA Times. THIS IS the mindset of the political left. They will willfullly ignore all of the evidence of voter fraud and ballot harvesting because it's convenient for them AND they have the mainstream media on their side. (my opinion is they have the law schools and the court rooms on their side as well) Read and take head. These people are not right in the head. Yesterday, today and tomorrow, they are blinded by their leftist politics of everything conventional, traditional and conservative.

Column: Justice is finally coming to some of the liars and cheats who enabled Trump Opinion
by Mark Z. Barabak • 18h • 4 min read
The arc of the moral universe — the one that is supposedly long and bending toward justice — seems finally to be edging closer to its mark.
A series of events in recent days — the defenestration of Ronna McDaniel, threatened disbarment of John Eastman, capitulation of Kari Lake in a defamation lawsuit — suggests a reckoning is upon us.
It’s taken a while. Too long to satisfy those who would rather justice be swift than sure.
But the humiliation visited on McDaniel, the sanctioning of Eastman and Lake, as well as the jailing of Peter Navarro, the Clinton-Democrat-turned-Trump-flunky, all bring a welcome and much-needed measure of accountability.
Perhaps their punishment will deter others who might similarly endeavor to overthrow a free and fairly conducted election, affronting the country's values and assaulting our democracy with their deceit.
The four differ in their deeds. But all are sprung from the same poisoned seed: Donald Trump's lie about the 2020 election, which he lost, clearly and indisputably, to Joe Biden.
McDaniel, while she was head of the Republican National Committee, not only helped spread Trump's lie but sought to pressure officials in Michigan — her home state — to withhold certification of Biden's victory there.Her reward was a $300,000-a-year contract to serve as a political commentator for NBC, which soiled itself in a misguided attempt to bring political diversity to its election coverage.
The network backed off and dumped McDaniel only after a remarkable on-air revolt by several of its marquee personalities, who rightly questioned the platforming of a fabulist and accessory to attempted election sabotage.
As MSNBC host Rachel Maddow aptly put it, "You wouldn’t hire ... a mobster to work at a DA’s office, right?”
The swift dispatch of McDaniel was not a matter of silencing a conservative voice, as some would have it. Rather, it was taking back a megaphone from a known liar whose every utterance would — and should — have been called into question.(A whole other issue is the amount of money that was shelled out to McDaniel not long after NBC made cuts to its news division — a reflection of an industry preference for elevating partisans, Democratic and Republican, over journalists.)
Eastman's comeuppance came a day after McDaniel's unceremonious exit, when a California State Bar judge recommended the attorney lose his law license for helping devise a cockamamie scheme to keep Trump in office despite his election defeat.
It's one thing to provide zealous counsel, said the judge, Yvette Roland, whose recommendation of disbarment goes to the state Supreme Court. “However, Eastman’s inaccurate assertions were lies that cannot be justified as zealous advocacy,” she concluded.
Indeed, though it would have been nice had the judge gone beyond the $10,000 fine imposed on Eastman, which seems a pittance considering the damage wrought by the former Orange County law school dean.
It's not as though he were testing some novel theory in moot court, or practicing "creative" lawyering, as he claimed in a self-pitying podcast interview.
Eastman set out to override and invalidate the judgment of more than 80 million Americans who voted for Biden and cast their ballots with full faith the results would be honored, just as they had been for the previous 200-plus years in America.
(For those members of the what-about chorus, yawping that Hillary Clinton and Stacey Abrams questioned the legitimacy of their defeats, there is no comparison between griping on the lecture circuit and mounting a spurious, full-frontal legal attack. Not to mention inciting a violent mob to storm the Capitol and prevent lawmakers from certifying the election.)
Happily, one of Eastman's fellow henchman, Navarro, is stewing in prison after refusing to testify about the Jan. 6 insurrection and his plan to keep Congress from tallying Biden's electoral college victory.
The four-month jail hitch is just the latest adornment on Navarro's unusual career path from environmentalist San Diego mayoral candidate and Democratic congressional hopeful to fall-on-his-sword MAGA loyalist.
