From our trusted source in South Korea–

The radical pro-Chinese administration in South Korea sentenced the former duly elected president, Yoon Suk-yeol, to life in prison on charges of leading an “insurrection” related to the December 3 emergency martial law declaration.

President Yoon Suk Yeol was removed from office by the pro-Chinese opposition.

The Special Prosecution had sought the death penalty. The court instead imposed life imprisonment, describing the case as a “serious destruction of constitutional order.”

The scale of the punishment is historic.

However, what deeply concerns many citizens is not only the severity of the sentences, but the legal reasoning behind them.

The court effectively recognized investigative authority for the Corruption Investigation Office (CIO) in an insurrection case, despite the lack of a clear constitutional basis granting the CIO jurisdiction over such charges.

At the same time, contested evidence collection procedures by the prosecution were accepted as lawful.

This was not simply an application of settled law.

It was a reshaping of constitutional limits through judicial interpretation.

When the judiciary validates expanded state power in a politically decisive case, the balance of constitutional government shifts.

South Korea now appears to be reaching a point where internal institutional safeguards alone may no longer be sufficient to restore equilibrium.

Many citizens in South Korea earnestly hope that the United States will closely observe what is unfolding in South Korea.

Any honest American can see this is the same tactics used by Democrats here at home to rid themselves of Donald Trump. Fortunately, Trump and America were saved from these tyrannical forces on the left. Thank you, God.

South Korea and Brazil have not been as fortunate.

Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro is suffering in prison today thanks to a wicked judicial system.

And, now the former pro-US President Yoon Suk Yeol is condemned to life in prison in South Korea.
