Report: 97% Of Donations From Department of Justice Employees Went To Hillary Clinton
YoungConservatives ^ | 27 Oct 16 | Andrew Mark Miller

Think the government has your back?

Nah.

But they sure do have Hillary’s.

You know how the DOJ was involved in a “nonpartisan” investigation of Hillary’s emails?

Well it turns out that 97% of the donations from DOJ employees went to…guess who?

Hillary Clinton.

From The Hill:

Federal government employees are opening their wallets to help Hillary Clinton beat Donald Trump on Nov. 8.

Of the roughly $2 million that federal workers from 14 agencies spent on presidential politics by the end of September, about $1.9 million, or 95 percent, went to the Democratic nominee’s campaign, according to an analysis by The Hill.

Employees at all the agencies analyzed, without exception, are sending their campaign contributions overwhelmingly to Clinton over her Republican counterpart. Several agencies, such as the State Department, which Clinton once led, saw more than 99 percent of contributions going to Clinton.

Employees of the Department of Justice, which investigated Clinton’s use of a private email server while she was secretary of State, gave Clinton 97 percent of their donations. Trump received $8,756 from DOJ employees compared with $286,797 for Clinton. From IRS employees, Clinton received 94 percent of donations.

Federal government employees overwhelmingly backed Clinton’s presidential campaign no matter which agency The Hill analyzed using Federal Election Commission data covering donors giving more than $200.

Yeah, I’m sure everything was done on the up and up over at the DOJ.

The undeniable reality is that Hillary was never going down for this crime.

And make no mistake, she absolutely committed a crime.

Democrat voters have abandoned any respect for rule of law during this election season and its been troubling to watch.

I’d love to see a breakdown of FBI donations.

Well, if your employer is the government, and your contributions are public, there is some pressure on you to donate the party ticket.

Why donate at all? It’s not an expectation anyplace I’ve ever worked.

Maybe you weren’t high enough up, or in a political enough area, to be visible?

These "government" employee/bureaucrats fit the description of Thomas Jefferson who, like other Founders, understood future dangers to the Constitution's strict limitations on political hacks like the Clintons who would endanger liberty for "the People" in order to enrich themselves and become "rulers," while billing themselves as "serving" those whom they would enslave.

We now must recognize that, since their beginning in the late-1800's, the liberal/progressive movement's ambition to supplant the ideas and principles underlying the U. S. Constitution with counterfeit ideas has been progressing at break-neck speed.

Correct, too, is the observance that the multitudinous bureaucracies already in place against "We, the People," must be displaced, for they are the very accomplices described by Jefferson as 'hiring' themselves to rivet the chains upon the necks" of their fellow citizens."

"I am not among those who fear the people. They...are our dependence for continued freedom. And to preserve their independence, we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our election between economy and liberty, or profusion and servitude. If we run into such debts, as that we must be taxed in our meat and in our drink, in our necessaries and our comforts, in our labors and our amusements, for our callings and our creeds...our people...must come to labor sixteen hours in the twenty-four, give the earnings of fifteen of these to the government for their debts and daily expenses; and the sixteenth being insufficient to afford us bread, we must live, as they (the British) now do, on oatmeal and potatoes; have no time to think, no means of calling the mismanagers to account; but be glad to obtain subsistence by hiring ourselves to rivet their chains on the necks of our fellow-sufferers.... This example reads to us the salutary lesson that private fortunes are destroyed by public, as well as by private extravagance. And this is the tendency of all human governments. A departure from the principle in one instance, becomes a precedent for a second; that second for a third; and so on, till the bulk of society is reduced to be mere automatons of misery, to have no sensibilities left but for sinning and suffering. Then begins, indeed, the 'bellum omnium in omnia,' which some philosophers...have mistaken for the natural, instead of the abusive, state of man. And the fore-horse of this frightful team is public debt. Taxation follows that, and in its train wretchedness and oppression." - Thomas Jefferson

Government employees support big government. It’s their livelihood.

Solution: Turn most of the DOJ functions back to the states. Lay off those affected.

Trump needs to aggressively begin cleaning house of these rat vermin on Day One of his first term. He won’t get a damn thing done, otherwise.
