The Biden regime really put law-fare on the map. Americans have watched one political prosecution after another unfold in the name of “protecting precious democracy.” But we all know those phony slogans and fake news spins aren’t noble at all. It’s a cover for raw political lawfare.
That’s exactly what happened in the case of Tina Peters.
Peters, the former Mesa County clerk in Colorado, became a regime target after she raised concerns about the handling of the 2020 election and pushed for more transparency around voting systems. But instead of listening to those widespread concerns, the left-wing political machine in Colorado did what it’s done so many times before: it crushed the messenger.
Peters was prosecuted and convicted on multiple charges related to election system data access. The most jaw-dropping part of this case was the sentence. Nine years in prison for a non-violent, first-time offender whose underlying “crime” was pushing too aggressively to investigate an election that millions of Americans already believed was riddled with fraud.
Nine long years.
Tina’s punishment was a warning shot. If you challenge the system, you’ll pay dearly for it.
Which is why what just happened in Colorado seems very strange.
The Democrat governor himself has suddenly stepped forward, singing a totally different tune, and publicly pointed out that the sentence against Peters doesn’t pass the smell test.
His post came out of left field (literally), and had many people wondering if someone very high-up made a phone call.
Whatever the reason, Governor Jared Polis just admitted something that millions of Americans have been saying for a long time… the US justice system doesn’t operate fairly.
Jared Polis said on X:
Last week, former State Senator Sonya Jaquez Lewis was sentenced to probation and community service after being convicted of four felonies including Attempt to Influence a Public Official. She made a horrible mistake, and she was wrong. I hope she learns from this and can rebuild her life. As someone who has known Sonya as a friend for many years, on a personal level I was glad to hear she isn’t going to prison which is a hard place for anyone, no less a retired 68-year old pharmacist. But it is not lost on me that she was convicted of the exact same felony charge as Tina Peters — attempting to influence a public official — and yet Tina Peters, as a non-violent first time offender got a nine year sentence. Justice in Colorado and America needs to be applied evenly, you never know when you might need to depend on the rule of law. This is the context I am using as I consider cases like this that have sentencing disparities, which is why I have extended the deadline for clemency applications until April 3rd. I will be making decisions on these cases throughout the remainder of my governorship.

A Democrat governor just publicly admitted that two people were convicted of the same felony charge, yet the left-winger walked away with probation while the conservative is rotting in prison for nearly a decade.
You just can’t square that, can you?
Of course, the left can “square it.” They love a good old-fashioned two-tier justice system, as long as it works in their favor. So, once the governor’s comments started circulating, liberals in Colorado and beyond immediately went into rage mode.
Colorado’s Democratic governor, facing a pressure campaign from President Donald Trump, is signaling his openness to granting clemency to a former county clerk who was convicted in a scheme that attempted to find proof of fraud in the 2020 presidential election.
A social post by Gov. Jared Polis brought swift rebuke Wednesday from the state’s attorney general, secretary of state and the association representing local election officials, who said such an action by the governor would send the wrong message to anyone seeking to interfere with elections ahead of this year’s midterms.
In his post on Tuesday, the governor compared the case of former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters, who is serving a nine-year prison sentence, to that of a former state lawmaker who was recently sentenced to probation and community service after being convicted of one of the same crimes. Polis was echoing a concern he raised in January that the sentence for Peters, who didn’t have a criminal history, was “harsh.”
Notice how the media immediately tries to turn the entire issue into a “political pressure” story.
That’s typical from the propaganda press. But here’s the thing: the problem isn’t who is pressuring whom. It’s the glaring sentencing disparity sitting right in front of our faces. One person commits the same crime and goes home with probation. Another person commits the same crime and gets nine years in prison.
Americans don’t need a law degree to see that’s flat-out wrong.
Governor Jared Polis doesn’t get to play the hero in this story.
He’s been running the same political machine that allowed this lawfare circus to happen in the first place. Colorado’s leadership helped create the environment where prosecutors could throw the book at a political opponent and call it “justice.”
So yes, it’s curious that the governor is suddenly admitting the obvious. But until Tina Peters is actually freed, this is just clickbait and talk.
Colorado doesn’t need another statement. It needs action. Free Tina Peters now.
