Democrats Are Using the FEC as a Partisan Weapon | RealClearPolitics
Imagine you are accused of a crime. Fortunately for you, the jury rejects the prosecution s case. But the judge disagrees with the verdict. He pretends the jury has not reached a decision, and announces that the trial will continue, but no sign of when. Sound fair?
Incredibly, something like this is happening at the Federal Election Commission. The FEC s Democrats are regularly refusing to dismiss complaints and notify respondents that they are in the clear when the commission has voted not to prosecute. This is a violation of due process norms and suppresses lawful free speech about politics and issues.
