So, you know Larry Krasner, right? The District Attorney known for his soft-on-crime policies and cozy relationship with the leftist protest crowd? Well, he’s back in the headlines, and not for good reasons.
Picture this: Krasner is now digging into ways to prosecute Pennsylvania residents who were pardoned by President Trump for their involvement in the January 6 Capitol protests. Yup, you heard that right. While he seems to think it’s perfectly fine to turn a blind eye to looting and rioting—so long as it fits a social justice narrative—stepping foot into the Capitol? That’s where he draws the line. Talk about twisted logic!
According to CNN’s Marshall Cohen, Krasner is sifting through federal charging documents like a kid searching for candy on Halloween. He’s looking for any loophole that might let him charge these individuals under Pennsylvania law. He claims there could be grounds since their conduct wasn’t “fully encompassed” in federal proceedings. But hold up—a lot of legal experts are raising eyebrows here because this whole plan might just crash against constitutional protections against double jeopardy.
History isn’t on Krasner’s side either. Remember when they tried similar tactics with Paul Manafort? Those efforts flopped thanks to legal safeguards that prevent rehashing old charges. But hey, why let facts get in the way of a good political show?
And let’s talk about irony for a second—Krasner is all fired up about prosecuting Trump supporters while ignoring the chaos from 2020 riots that tore Philly apart! During those riots, 80% of commercial burglary charges were dropped like yesterday’s news. A staggering 95% of those arrested got off scot-free—even though many were repeat offenders! So what do we have now? Businesses shutting down left and right, retail theft skyrocketing—it’s getting outta control!
Now here comes the kicker: Krasner’s latest crusade pops up just days after he faced off against former Philadelphia Judge Pat Dugan in a primary challenge! Dugan is really hammering home how Krasner has failed to tackle rising crime rates. Seriously, even beloved Wawa stores are closing locations because they can’t deal with rampant theft anymore!
At the end of the day, let’s call this what it really is—a desperate political stunt disguised as justice. Instead of focusing on cleaning up his own backyard, Krasner would rather keep chasing after Trump supporters like it’s some kind of vendetta. Meanwhile, folks in Philadelphia are stuck wondering when someone will finally prioritize their safety over political theatrics.
So yeah, grab another cup of coffee and keep an eye on this saga—it looks like it’s going to get even messier before it gets better!
