“I’m generally 100% for law enforcement. This is different.”
Me too, but they have to be men and women of integrity. Problem is, there are too many “this is different” situations today, and I think the problem is that all too often LEO higher-ups are appointed by “civilian” administrations, not elected by those they serve. And you have to add to the problem Cop Unions that will always “stand up” for an accused cop, even when the evidence of criminal behavior is obvious.
Just think, if James Comey, the FBI Director, served at the pleasure of the President, Hillary would be completely out of danger. But he has a ten-year term of office, thus the President has no direct control over him
I believe it is more complicated than that. There is plenty of evidence that Comey is a straight arrow, but his autonomy from the DOJ is not complete. The DOJ under Holder and now under Lynch is simply a puppet to Obozo and the law be damned. And Congress has not acted in their capacity, instead has bowed to Obama’s every wish.
Is that because they are all compromised in some form? Likely.
The Threat of an Article V Convention? It grows. Governor Abbot is now on board. There are others who know how serious this is. The blind peacocks who have government jobs and will protect that interest at all costs are an element in our current “deer in the headlight” Fed Gov.
