Pardon ‘Arctic Frost’ Scapegoats
Cleta Mitchell at The Federalist states, “The Biden administration presided over an unimaginably aggressive political witch hunt” and transformed the FBI into “the Stasi of the Democratic Party” aimed at defeating political foes “not at the ballot box, but through lawyers, courts, and jail cells.”
Operation Arctic Frost targeted criminalizing the actions of Trump’s 2020 presidential electors who signed certificates for President Trump at the state level. However, these state cases serve as stand-ins for federal actions.
Mitchell adds that the alleged “state law violations” are entirely “fabricated by the Biden administration” to penalize President Trump, his electors, lawyers, and supporters. She argues, “President Trump should immediately pardon every person indicted” in this case that seeks to “criminally charge” loyalists for their political actions.
Libertarian: Cuomo Deserved Humiliation
Christian Britschgi from Reason critiques Andrew Cuomo, observing he was never able to move past relying on attacks against other candidates. Cuomo “never got beyond the idea that all he had to do to win was point at the other candidates and say, ‘you’re really going to vote for them?’”
His failure to highlight his “own record of achievement and administrative acumen” was a key issue, especially as his governorship ended amid a series of scandals fueled by incompetence.
