So, is this like the FBI? “Most of ‘em are swell guys”? There are just “a few” that give the rest a bad name? Is that what we’re going with? Because we are afraid to admit that the whole team is rotten to the core?
I don’t see people coming forward to do the right thing. That tells me something.
One of more surprising things I've learned growing up is how cheaply most people's honor can be bought.
Everyone who works for anyone in DC knows that Fort Marcy Park is calling for anyone who does the right thing.
Evil thrives when good people do nothing

At least in the Hunter Biden affair, there are some IRS Agents who are doing the right thing and coming forward. There may be hope for the IRS.
According to Machiavelli’s the Prince, when the Prince conquers a kingdom, he needs to do certain things to change it. First he needs very quickly and very publicly to slay, imprison, or enslave all those who his military feels resisted his authority. Next he needs to appoint new civilian leadership that swears they will be loyal to the Prince. Then he needs to stop any further persecution of those who opposed him in the past.
Those who were initially afraid for their lives, will believe that they escaped justice and behave themselves. Those who are appointed will know what will happen to them if they are not loyal to the Prince.
Yes, someone needs to go in and remove all Secret Service and FBI management, not just the top levels. Yes, some good people will be sacked and their careers ruined, but those few could have turned whistle-blowers, so in a sense they brought this on themselves. New management loyal to the Constitution (since we are not a monarchy) needs to be brought in to run those organizations.
The best way to do this is through the budget power of the House of Representatives in totally changing the powers and missions of the Secret Service and FBI. There needs to be hearings, leaders need to resign, people in management need to be held accountable and object lessons need to be provided to the rest of the medieval village residents.
What it tells me is this is just ANOTHER KABUKI Theater Production.
