White House Counsel's Office Assures Us the Biden Administration Respects the Rule of Law

We were assured that President Joe Biden was going to have some comment on the verdict in Donald Trump's so-called "hush money" trial. We're sure Biden will have something to say, but as for now, the White House Counsel's Office is keeping quiet:

Statement from White House Counsel’s Office: “We respect the rule of law, and have no additional comment.”

Unless it’s the Supreme Court or weaponizing the judicial as needed to keep from losing an election.

President Joe Biden was bragging — bragging — again Wednesday about how he didn't let a Supreme Court ruling stop him. He even posted the clip to his own X account:

The Supreme Court tried to block me from relieving student debt. But they didn’t stop me.

I’ve relieved student debt for over 5 million Americans. I’m going to keep going. pic.twitter.com/m1yh6lYGph
