If a few convictions do not dislodge the Deep State, maybe a few public hangings would.

“Yet, the conspirators go unpunished.”

That’s the money statement.

Trump MUST restore the rule of law or else these the liberals will continue their temper tantrum by getting worse.

Hannity will be one of the collateral damages if this is never prosecuted. His credibility is near exhaustion. I like the guy but his “sources” are not that reliable.

Excellent link.

A government of the bureaucrat, by the bureaucrat, for the bureaucrat. A stellar health care plan and retirement plan plus an added bonus of a dual track justice system to boot with a lifetime get out of jail free card. Who wouldn’t want to join the cadre of bureaucrats running the country, telling the peasants, ah, people we are just here to help you...

Either these coup plotters and criminals are arrested, tried, convicted, and sentenced soon, or the wheels fall off the Constitution itself and our country. Are you listening Bagpipes?

Trump says he's not directly involved. Barr says it's all up to Durham.

I say that that hands off approach is not how the executive branch is supposed to work and that's not how you dislodge the Deep State.

What are the odds that Durham gets the job done.

It’s an army. They’re going to have to be driven out en masse. I know you’re a big booster for going back to appointed-by-state-leg Senators, but a more pressing issue is getting rid of the armies of bureaucrats by abolishing civil service and going back to patronage. 4 or 8 years in and then you’re out with the administration. No lifetime gubmint sinecures and bennies galore. Serving as a bureaucrat for a single term or two should be a personal sacrifice financially before you return to the private sector. This is the only way to begin to disentangle the Derp State from absolute control of our government.

And that also means abolishing ALL government unions, too.

Agree. The Civil Service has evolved into a power unto its own, an imperium in imperio, and must go. Patronage is better than the civil service threat to our republic. No permanent jobs. Eight or so years is enough.

The Sunday show’ mandatory talking point was “conspiracy theory”. Of course, that doesn’t apply to Deep State Democrat tools or their Fifth Column, just Republicans and conservatives.

The media is the propaganda arm of the Derp State.
