MSNOW is once again pretending that political weaponization only becomes a problem when President Donald Trump tries to fix it.

On Saturday, MSNOW attacked Trump’s proposed $1.776 billion anti-weaponization fund, framing it as a corrupt taxpayer-funded payout to “insurrectionists.”

The fund was reportedly created as part of a settlement connected to Trump’s lawsuit against the IRS and is intended to compensate Americans who say they were unfairly targeted by the Biden administration’s justice system.

That is exactly why the left hates it.

For years, the Biden administration, Democrat prosecutors, and their allies in the media treated political prosecution as normal. The January 6 defendants were held up as examples, not merely prosecuted under the law. Many were used as political symbols.

Some committed crimes and deserved legal consequences. That point should not be ignored. But the issue is not whether every person at the Capitol on January 6 behaved properly. Rather, it is whether the American justice system handed out fair, equal, and proportionate punishment.

In many cases, the answer is obviously no.

The left wants every January 6 defendant placed into the same category. Violent offenders, nonviolent protesters, people who entered the Capitol, people who were swept into massive investigations, and people pressured into plea deals are all treated as part of one giant “insurrection.”

That framing allows the media to avoid the real question: Were these defendants treated the same way other Americans would have been treated for comparable conduct?

MSNOW does not want to answer that question because the answer destroys the narrative.

The same media outlet that calls January 6 an insurrection has defended and celebrated left-wing disruptions when they serve progressive causes.

When Democrat state lawmakers disrupt legislative proceedings, scream about racism, or stage political spectacles, the media calls it activism. When conservatives protest, the same media suddenly discovers law and order.

That double standard is the whole problem.

MSNOW also argued that the Department of Justice under Trump cannot be trusted because Trump now controls the executive branch.

But if the president’s control over the Justice Department automatically creates a conflict, then Democrats must explain why the Biden Justice Department’s actions against Trump and his supporters were supposedly beyond political influence.

New York State Attorney General Letitia James campaigned on going after Trump before bringing a case against him. Alvin Bragg revived a politically charged prosecution against Trump after years of pressure from the left.

Merrick Garland’s Justice Department pursued Trump while Biden was preparing to run against him. The left cannot claim political prosecution is impossible under Democrats and then call it obvious under Trump.

The anti-weaponization fund does not mean every January 6 defendant is innocent. It does not mean every applicant deserves compensation. It simply means the federal government should recognize that political targeting happened and that Americans who were denied fair treatment deserve a remedy.

One officer interviewed by MSNOW argued that taxpayers should not pay people connected to January 6. But the fund is broader than January 6.

The point is to compensate Americans who were targeted by a weaponized justice system, including people across the political spectrum who may have been abused by federal power.

Democrats spent years saying nobody is above the law. Conservatives should answer with a better principle: nobody should be beneath equal justice under the law.

MSNOW can call it a slush fund. The left can call every Trump supporter an extremist. RINOs can run to cable news and pretend outrage.

But the truth remains simple. A justice system that punishes people based on politics is not justice.
