Newt Gingrich: “This is without precedent in American history. It had never occurred to President John Adams that he could jail his primary competitor Vice President Thomas Jefferson – even though Jefferson would defeat him in the election of 1800. It never occurred to Adams’ son, President John Quincy Adams, that he could imprison Andrew Jackson – even though the latter spent four years attacking John Quincy Adams in often vicious and hostile ways. Only with the desperation of President Joe Biden and his fanatic leftwing enforcers did it become possible to think about arresting and jailing their major political competitor. This case must be taken out of Judge Merchan’s hands.”
