There are still occasional examples of fair and balanced justice in the US, after enduring so many reports of a bent two-tiered justice system. Modern leftist biased prosecutors have been jailing right-wing activists for the same types of crimes committed by leftist activists who are not charged.

Federal prosecutors who opted not to pursue charges against “Antifa” members cannot prosecute a Huntington Beach man accused of helping establish a Southern California-based militant, white supremacist group whose members attacked rivals at Southern California political rallies, a judge ruled Wednesday.
Criminal charges against Robert Paul Rundo for allegedly recruiting and training others to commit violence at rallies in Huntington Beach, San Bernardino and Berkeley were dismissed by U.S. District Judge Cormac J. Carney, who accused the U.S. Attorney’s Office of selective prosecution for pursuing suspected “far-right, white supremacist nationalists” but not “Antifa and other extremist, far-left groups.”
Previous efforts by the same judge to throw out the same charges for different reasons have been overruled by appellate judges. Judge Carney also came under scrutiny several years ago over a “racially insensitive” comment that led to his stepping down as chief judge of the federal Central District Court of California.
