Ari Fleischer Can’t Help But Notice How WaPo and NYT Did NOT Frame Biden-Era Indictments of Trump Aides – Twitchy

But now, it’s all about Trump getting his enemies. pic.twitter.com/ggrR9jAm4U

Now we’re to believe the Comey indictment (not to mention the FBI raid of John Bolton’s house where reportedly classified documents were found) are some sort of unprecedented events. Please.
