Well, it is nice to not be sitting on a short burning fuse alone.

I'd been quietly going berserk over the lack of apparent progress against the DS until I considered....

Just exactly who is going to announce that, say Podesta got run down to Gitmo and has been sitting in a cell there since last December?

The MSM?

Would Podesta have his legal team throw a presser to break the news? Or would someone at the FBI leak to the NYSlime and they'd print it?

.

.

JMHO there could be lots of black hats in jail or on their way there right now and the only way the public's going to know about it is when some amateur internet sleuth posts a picture of Black Hat Number 187's luxury penthouse apartment with a Foreclosed notice on the front door.

Besides, if the MSM actually began announcing anything like that most of us would run by the perp's digs to double check anyway, right?

The number of inmates at Gitmo has not changed since POTUS took office.

Yes, and HANNITY has tonight blown up my foul mood with loads of Breaking News, with name taking and butt bruising.

I’m not on board with the idea of anyone being secretly detained (in Gitmo or anywhere). That just flies in the face of Constitutional protections for due process and Habeas Corpus. More importantly, I don’t believe President Trump would condone secret courts or tribunals. That is the stuff of tyranny and I’ll never accept that our President is capable of it.

I’m inclined to believe that the DOJ is slow-walking indictments and prosecution in the hopes that they can convince these bad actors to rat one another out and take a plea so they don’t have to actually prosecute anyone. This is ultimate goal of every prosecutor, no matter if it’s at the local, state or federal level. It always ends up looking like justice wasn’t served in the end. On the other hand, it would save our country years of court proceedings and appeals that could easily outlive President Trump’s 2 terms in office - not to mention billions of dollars and years of civil turmoil as citizens take a side in the fight.

This is just my rationalization of what seems like paralysis in the DOJ. I hope that I’m wrong. There’s nothing I want more than to see these seditious traitors utterly ruined and slapped behind bars for a good long time. I’m a true believer in the deterrent effect of severe punishment for severe crimes. The rational side of me is doubtful that will happen.
