Wouldn’t it be nice if Civil Asset Forfeiture laws were instead (instead, not also) applied to corrupt politicians? Just think how much money could be seized from the Clinton Foundation to recover what they received as bribes, what they misappropriated from Haiti and other so-called charitable and aid programs, what they were paid for selling our uranium to Russia, the list goes on nearly ad infinitum — billions of dollars that could be used for the benefit of taxpayers (e.g., to reduce the deficit or to rebuild infrastructure). Equally enormous sums could be recovered from Obama’s unaccountably huge assets — just think what we could do with the money he sneaked into Iran’s hands, if only we could seize up to an equal sum from his and his family’s personal assets as well as from his co-conspirators. Thousands of politicians and high-ranking bureaucrats at all levels of government deserve to lose their ill-gotten gains, and CAF is a quick and easy weapon.
With Zero/Holder practically de-criminalizing everything but being a conservative for nearly a decade, his and HRC’s minions are diversified in their criminal investments: drugs, sex trafficking, weapons-running, illegal minerals mining.... all kinds of ways to skin those cats now.
