The FBI investigated Trump and his campaign staff in 2016 because they presumed that he was guilty of coordination with Russia. They will tell you that it was merely a "Counterintelligence Investigation" and that it was necessary for national security but there was literally NOTHING on which to base the assumption that there was coordination.
Adam Schiff and the Democrats in congress pursued impeachment of Trump because they presumed he had committed an act of campaign fraud through his discussion with the Ukranian president. Schiff LITERALLY substituted his own words for Trump's words, pronounced the presumption of guilt based on those words and prosecuted the case against Trump.
In several police incidents we have seen the presumption that cops are guilty of racially motivated violence against black suspects. Local District Attorneys have levied charges even before investigations are complete and in many cases the charging statements include the presumption of guilt.
We have a militia in Michigan that is accused of attempting to kidnap governor Whitmer. On this site right now we have users calling to investigate all militias, if not all white, male gun owners, because, as far as they are concerned, it's reasonable to presume that anyone associated with any militia or Constitutional preservation type movement is likely guilty of a similar type crime.
If Democrats take power in November can we expect more of this type of "justice"? Is this kind of thing Constitutional? How far removed from "thought crime" or a "police state" is this kind of justice? Is it even justice?
