WorldNetDaily managing editor David Kupelian begins his promotion for the latest issue of hiss sparsely read Whistleblower magazine with a tirade against Democrats:
“Show me the man, I’ll find you the crime!” So said Lavrenty Beria, the notorious chief of the secret police under the Soviet Union’s long-time and epically ruthless leader, Josef Stalin.
What that meant, of course, was that any person regarded as a genuine threat to the communist dictatorship would be tried in a kangaroo court on serious but totally made-up crimes. As the Encyclopedia Britannica puts it: “In high-profile, carefully scripted purge trials, perceived political opponents of the government were convicted of heinous offenses that they had not committed.”
In today’s America, the parallels are both eerie and inescapable.
Remember, after all, that the Democratic Party has embraced not only socialism and the bizarre neo-Marxist religion of “wokeism,” but straight-up pathological delusion – everything from championing “transgender” men destroying women’s athletics and invading their locker rooms, to intentionally engineering a full-scale invasion of America by foreign gangbangers, sex traffickers and criminals, including thousands of convicted murderers and rapists.
So corrupt and delusional has today’s Democratic Party become that, for the first time in history, a major political party pushed a man with obvious dementia (who also happened to be head of a de facto crime family) into the White House as a puppet president, all the while secretly controlling him – and therefore the country – via a hidden “politburo” of puppet-string pullers.
It is this deranged and shockingly corrupt political party that in recent times has been using the judiciary to advance an unholy and catastrophic agenda – first, by following Beria’s example of “finding the crime” to fit “the man,” in this case President Donald J. Trump.
Kupelian offers no evidence to back up any of this — remember that he couldn’t even define “woke” in an edition of the magazine devoted to it. Instead, he whined that Trump was being held to judicial standards:
But then, after Trump’s stunning electoral-landslide reelection victory in November 2024 and the breathtakingly rapid rollout of his promised and much-needed reforms starting on Inauguration Day, the judicial attacks on Trump assumed a new and different form: Now left-leaning judges across the land would ignore their oaths of office, the clear intent of the law and the constitutional separation of powers, and instead fixate on undermining and blocking at every turn the pro-America agenda of the democratically elected president of the United States.
Indeed, many top legal analysts say what is happening in America right now constitutes nothing short of an attempted judicial coup d’etat.
[…]What if the judiciary, the remaining constitutional branch of America’s unique tripartite government, took on a new role – of undermining and overruling the president?
As it turned out, the same judiciary that disgraced itself with all the idiotically corrupt, wall-to-wall lawfare attacks against Donald Trump throughout the Biden administration has been only too willing to do its part to stop Trump at any cost now, be it legal or illegal, moral or immoral, sane or completely insane.
To describe the game plan simply: If you don’t like something President Trump is doing, just file a lawsuit with any one of thousands of judges, making sure to pick one who dislikes Trump and his policies. And then suddenly, one local judge – deliberating in his or her little jurisdiction in one of 50 sovereign states – writes something on a piece of paper and magically overrules the overwhelmingly elected and constitutionally empowered president of the United States.
Kupelian is confusing popularity with legal authority — he would never have demanded that, say, President Obama be allowed to do whatever he wanted without judicial interference because he was “constitutionally empowered” to do so. (And a guy who didn’t even win half the popular vote in 2024 was not “overwhelmingly elected.”) As far as judge-shopping goes, we don’t recall Kupelian or anyone else at WND being upset that the right-wing legal effort against abortion pills was specifically crafted to go before a certain right-wing-friendly judge in Texas.
Kupelian’s cognitive dissonance carries through to the magazine’s cover, which features a judge in a royal robe and crown (and in front of a rainbow flag, for some reason) even though he would much rather see Trump wearing that robe and crown, acting with royal impunity.
WND has been doing its Trump Regime Media duty this year by attacking judges who try to rein in Trump’s ideological overreach, and this magazine issue is a continuation of that.
