What Jonah Goldberg gets wrong on the Mar-a-Lago raid
American Thinker ^ | 8/31/2022 | Peter Nichols

It once again has become necessary that Mr. Jonah Goldberg, scholar, humorist, rationalist, and exemplar of moral consistency, bring to heel a rabidly partisan right-winger (Yearning for a Banana Republic). The burden is thrust upon him by a benighted epoch. "What an amazingly stupid time this is," laments Jonah.

The immediate evidence of the era's stupidity is the enhanced partisanship for Donald Trump voiced by conservatives, after the FBI's raid on his estate at Mar-a-Lago. Apparently in reaction to the search, former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee, along with others, renewed his support for Trump's candidacy in 2024. He identified the former president as the only Republican "who'll have the guts to take on this incredibly corrupt machine."

Goldberg hasn’t been right since he wrote Happy Fascism or whatever the title of the book is.

This is not a criticism of the poster, but the author wastes our time with that introductory drive.

Jonah Goldberg? Isn’t that what I have to scrape off the bottom of my shoe if I make the mistake of walking through the grass at the local park?

Someone working on a project that interfaced with Hillary went to the FBi with information that Hilary had. The FBi and the DoJ quickly formed a Posse and raided the guys house.

Then the went to a DC Judge and got everything about the Raid and what the whistleblower told them SEALED. Sealed to this day.

Funny how that works.

How about a Federal Raid to get a diary?

How about a raid of someone that had a copy of Hunter’s hard drive that he abandoned by legal contract?

Funny how that works.

Goldberger is a weak, pathetic, money-grubbing gutless spoogechimney.

The creep is a dense dunce.

He doesn’t get much right about much.

But his intel agency dad got him his career in propaganda—and now he’s convinced there is something clever or charming about him.

I got banned after making my only article post about a guy who survive trapped in a air bubble when his ship sank and he was rescued. It was something about the number of lines I used to post, too few. I wrote to the admin and asked why and they reinstated my account but I never went there again.
I instead found Free Republic.

There is Corruption so deep around Biden for 20 yrs!

The guy was living so far above his bank account and salary - 2 Corvettes, Porsches for the kids, and three Mansions that had crews adding luxury upgrades 52 weeks a year.

There hasn’t been a single investigation of Joe - None.

One must wonder why Jonah Goldberg and Liz Cheney are fine with Corruption like that at the top level of Govt.

Jonah Goldberg Syndrome : )

Nolte: Far-Left Washington Post in Serious Financial Trouble
Why read the Washington Post when you know exactly what you’ll get every time? Their columnists write the same three or four columns over and over again every week (this is called the Jonah Goldberg Syndrome and is incurable).

Jonah Goldberg has always been a Trump hater. How he was best friends with Andrew Breitbart is beyond me.
