The U.S. has a two-tiered justice system — one for the left and a stricter one for conservatives, John Eastman, a former attorney for President-elect Donald Trump, told Newsmax on Tuesday.
"Just look at some recent examples," Eastman told "Rob Schmitt Tonight" guest host David Harris Jr. "[Democrat Reps.] Eric Swalwell and Adam Schiff lied to the American public.
"Hillary Clinton and her crew laundered money through her law firm to hire a former military intelligence agent — a foreign intelligence agent — to create this phony Russia dossier that they used to then spy on a candidate for president. They continued to spy on Trump after he was elected in 2016, and even after he was inaugurated."
"This is the biggest political scandal in our nation's history. And nobody had any accountability or been held to account for that at all, except one guy who actually doctored a document, and he got a little slap on the wrist," he said.
He pointed out that Swalwell and Schiff are members of the California Bar, but Eastman himself has gone through "the longest and most expensive bar disciplinary proceeding in history" for challenging the 2020 election.
"Double standard doesn't even begin to cover it," Eastman said.
