That's the way it is. No different from the crooked police department in any po-dunk town or village, except for the size. This corruption is not new. It gets uncovered and exposed from time to time (Church hearings being one example, "Keith" case being another), but the corruption never stops, it just learns to hide better.

All three branches are in on the scam. Checks and balances all run in favor of the government. None of the institutions is honest, and what are you going to do, fight city hall? That's insanity.

An anon had some thoughts about "[CHINA-CHINA-CHINA]" in earlier drop re: FB is always listening. Wouldn't be surprised if this is the end goal. If you recall, FB launched same day Pentagon killed their LIFELOG project to collect info on everything everyone says sees or does.

****and what are you going to do, fight city hall****

Nope, never gonna try that again.

I would LIKE to think that part of draining the swamp would involve breaking up the whole 5 Eyes nastiness but I guess that is wishful thinking.
