You know, the Left never misses a chance to remind America that “the cover-up is worse than the crime.” But as Michael Goodwin of the New York Post perfectly put it — that sermon only applies when a Republican is in the crosshairs. When it’s Joe Biden’s DOJ caught red-handed abusing power? The New York Times suddenly develops amnesia.
This week, we learned that Special Counsel Jack Smith, the Biden-appointed hitman targeting President Trump, wasn’t just going after Trump — he was also spying on sitting Republican senators. Yes, you read that right: the same Jack Smith who turned the Department of Justice into Biden’s personal campaign arm teamed up with the FBI to monitor the communications and phone records of GOP lawmakers.
According to FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino, agents under Smith’s direction tracked the calls and communications of Senators Lindsey Graham, Marsha Blackburn, Ron Johnson, Josh Hawley, Cynthia Lummis, and Tommy Tuberville, among others. The surveillance came under the pretext of the January 6 investigation — but funny enough, only Republicans were targeted.
Let that sink in: unelected bureaucrats in Biden’s DOJ were snooping on elected senators from the opposing party. That’s not law enforcement — that’s political espionage. And if Trump had done it, you’d already be seeing impeachment hearings live on CNN.
But the New York Times? Not a word. Not a headline. Not a whisper. The so-called “paper of record” that spent four years obsessing over Russia hoaxes and “democracy dying in darkness” couldn’t muster a single sentence about the FBI spying on lawmakers. Why? Because the truth would expose their entire narrative: that it’s the Biden administration — not Trump — that’s been weaponizing the justice system.
Instead, the Times ran interference, pumping out another distraction headline:
“As Trump’s Justice Dept. Pursues His Enemies, an Ally Goes on Trial.”
Seriously? While the Biden DOJ is caught surveilling senators, the Times decides to write about a minor campaign donor? You can’t make this up.
Goodwin nailed it: this is just the latest chapter in a decade-long partnership between the Left-wing media and the Deep State. During the Russia hoax, the FBI leaked to the Times nonstop — feeding them lie after lie about Trump’s supposed collusion. The Times gladly printed it all, acting as James Comey’s personal propaganda arm. But now that Biden’s people are the ones abusing power, the Times looks the other way.
Even worse, the paper knows the truth — because they’ve reported parts of it before. Back in April 2022, the Times quietly admitted that Biden wanted Trump prosecuted and was frustrated that Attorney General Merrick Garland wasn’t moving fast enough. They buried it deep in the article, of course, quoting anonymous sources who said Biden believed Trump was “a threat to democracy and should be prosecuted.”
Translation: Biden wanted his political opponent jailed — and he got his wish. Within months, Garland appointed Jack Smith, and the witch hunts began. The classified documents case. The January 6 case. The unprecedented FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago, complete with agents rifling through Melania Trump’s closets. And through it all, the Times cheered from the sidelines like obedient campaign staffers.
Meanwhile, the paper never connected the obvious dots between Biden’s DOJ and the two state-level prosecutions conveniently aligned against Trump — one in Georgia, where Fani Willis’s team met repeatedly with Garland’s DOJ, and another in New York, where prosecutor Matthew Colangelo left a top DOJ post to join Alvin Bragg’s clown show of a case.
But to the Times, that’s not coordination — it’s coincidence. Sure.
Here’s the truth the Left and their media echo chamber can’t afford to admit:
The Biden administration has turned the Department of Justice into a political weapon, and Jack Smith is its blade. The New York Times isn’t just ignoring the corruption — it’s complicit in it.
The same paper that once prided itself on exposing Watergate now hides the modern equivalent — because this time, it’s their guy doing the spying.
So yes, Michael Goodwin’s right. The New York Times should be ashamed — not just for what it’s covered up, but for what it’s become: a PR firm for a corrupt administration that fears only one man — Donald J. Trump. ??
