Joe Biden blatantly lied to the American people about Hunter’s dealings

Reduced to its essentials, Biden’s DOJ indicted Donald Trump because he allegedly lied to the American people. The “lie” is that he disagreed with the Democrat and Uniparty narrative regarding the fraud (or lack thereof) in the 2020 election. Meanwhile, it’s emerged that, rather than having a difference of opinion with someone, Joe Biden blatantly lied to the American people about an incontrovertible fact: namely, the money his son raked in from foreign governments. This was a purely factual lie and a true fraud.

Political speech is protected speech, even when it’s dishonest. That’s why the indictment against Trump is a fundamental denial of his First Amendment rights, and that’s true whether Trump lied (as Democrats allege) or truly believed that the election was rife with fraud (as his supporters believe). It’s not actionable and cannot be actionable because any other standard means that the government gets to determine what constitutes “the truth.”

However, as another president once said,

Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passion, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.

In Trump’s case, the “truth” is definitely a matter of opinion, and Trump’s main “crime” is that he refused to listen to advisors who manifestly despised him.
