John Schneider is just a good ole boy, never meanin’ no harm, but Joe Biden is sending Boss Hogg an Roscoe P. Coltrane after him. The actor, who portrayed Bo Duke on the classic The Dukes of Hazzard TV series recently opined that Joe is guilty of treason and should face the Constitutional punishment for that crime. It was not a threat, but the Secret Service is now coming for him.
Moments after his appearance on The Masked Singer, Schneider tweeted, and eventually deleted this:
“Mr. President, I believe you are guilty of treason and should be publicly hung. Your son too. Your response is..? Sincerely, John Schneider,” he tweeted.
Apparently Biden’s response was to sic the Secret Service on him, as Deadline reports:
John Schneider may now be insisting he never threatened the life of President Joe Biden, but the Secret Service beg to differ.
The federal agency charged with protecting POTUS, the Vice President and their immediate families, as well as major political candidates and high level government officials, have opened a probe into statements the former Dukes of Hazzard star made online against the President and his son Hunter Biden earlier today, Deadline has learned.
Schneider offered this comment to Deadline:
“Seriously, folks? This is my final comment on this. I neither said nor implied any such thing. Despite headlines claiming otherwise, in my post, I absolutely did not call for an act of violence or threaten a U.S. president as many other celebrities have done in the past. I suggest you re-read my actual post and pay attention to the words before believing this nonsense,” said Schneider.
“It’s my position, which I am entitled to have, that some of our nations [sic.] leaders in Washington have lost their way, and corruption runs rampant, both on our nation’s borders and abroad. Transparency and accountability must happen in order for our constitutional republic to survive. There is no threat implied or otherwise in that statement,” he concluded.
He’s right. This was in no way a threat, just a Constitutionally-protected opinion. Schneider believes that Joe Biden is guilty of treason, which he is, and the prescribed punishment for that crime is death, as laid out in that same Constitution. At the time the Constitution was written, the preferred method of punishment for treason was death by hanging.
Had Schneider said that he was going to lynch the illegitimate president, that would be a threat, but this is simply an opinion.
Joe Biden has been known to send his corrupt Justice Department after his political enemies and it looks like Bo Duke is now on his long list. Technically, the Secret Service is part of the Treasury Department, but you get the idea.
This is also part of Biden’s two-tier law enforcement scheme. Any liberal can threaten to literally assassinate President Trump, and it never rises to even the level of an inquiry. When a conservative, like Schneider, however, expresses a non-threatening opinion, Joe’s iron boot comes crashing down.
The law never could catch up to them Duke boys, and Joe Biden is more inept than Deputy Enos, wearing a pair of Daisy Dukes, so good luck with this.
