I liked Edwin Meese and heard good things about him. An American.

A study of DOJ/FBI history shows an obvious trend of this agency being a political power unto itself. It has morphed into America’s KGB - a central government political vetting agency and ideological bureaucracy, operating under the guise of “law” and “domestic security.” Its getting worse every day

What Trump’s experience showed is what absolute power the DOJ have, and without a real loyalist at AG, a Presidency is finished before its begun.

Kennedy appointed his own brother. Reagan has his old friend Ed Meese, Obama had fellow travellers Holder and Lynch. He even made sure they were black for extra safety.

Who did Trump have? The wretched deep-state mole Jeff Sessions, who nearly destroyed Trump, and then a compromise-candidate and DOJ insider, William Barr.

I simply can’t see how any non-establishment, non-RINO President will ever control the DOJ again.

A blast from the past!
Ed Meese is someone I hadnt heard or thought about in decades.
Similar to Bob Dole.

“Ed Meese is someone I hadnt heard or thought about in decades.”

If I remember correctly the left attempted to destroy him and President Reagan with some accusation about a pair of $100 cuff links. The story was in the news for months with demands for investigation, investigation, investigation.

Now billions of corrupt dollars passes through the hands of the first family and barely a peep.

Both of whom that fraudster Q said to trust.

I had the chance to converse with Gen. Meese at a dinner a couple years ago. My impression was that he is a very humble, very thoughtful and considerate gentleman.
