Witch hunts at the Justice Department
American Thinker ^ | 26 Aug, 2022 | Jack Hellner

Political beliefs warrant varying degrees in the applications of “justice.”

In 2019, after years of Mueller and his team of partisan hacks searching for a crime, the Justice Department decided not to charge Trump. However, that did not put to bed the false narrative that Trump skirted justice and committed criminal acts — in fact it fueled the rumors. The American Constitution society released a “Key Findings” report, which said:

The Special Counsel investigation uncovered extensive criminal activity[.]

And

The Mueller report details multiple episodes in which there is evidence that the President obstructed justice.

And

A statement signed by over 1,000 former federal prosecutors concluded that if any other American engaged in the same efforts to impede federal proceedings the way Trump did, they would likely be indicted for multiple charges of obstruction of justice.

The Justice Department blocked the release of a memo that explained their decision to forgo prosecution for years, not to protect any confidential information, but rather to intentionally censor the truth from the public that Trump not only did not commit crimes, but he also did not obstruct justice at all.

On Wednesday, Politico published an article detailing the release of an important Mueller-era memo. According to the piece:

Two top aides to then-Attorney General William Barr said Trump’s acts wouldn’t have merited obstruction charges even if he were not immune as president.

The authors of the memo stated:

Having reviewed the Report in light of governing legal principles, and the Principles of Federal Prosecution, we conclude that none of those instances would warrant a prosecution for obstruction of justice, without regard to the constitutional constraint on bringing such an action against a sitting president[.]

Meanwhile, the media, Justice Department, and other Democrats are fully aware of Biden’s deep-rooted corruption

I don’t see how the leftist corruption has been ignored for so long.

Trump was the president of the United States. He's not Don from accounting or Mike from IT. He was the president. That carries some weight. I'm not saying he should get special treatment, but the gaslighting by the Feds is getting dangerously close to an inflection point.

It hasn’t been ignored.

Deep State couldn’t cover it up so efficiently if they ignored it.

Mostly because the typical American is too to busy pay attention. “Is it ignorance or apathy? I don’t know and I don’t care” applies here. No one noticed the snakes slithering into comfy political positions of authority while it was happening because the snakes disguised themselves as chameleons. When Trump came along and made them reveal that they ARE snakes, they became venomous snakes. Ask prairie folks how THEY deal with venomous snakes. Prairie fires work! And that is what D.Trump started. “If we don’t let it burn the snakes will return” would be a great campaign slogan for somebody willing to go after the venomous snakes in high places. Just a thought.

It took a Freedom of Information Act suit to pry open this file from the grasp of Mordor on the Potomac.

So they have run out the extension cord of obstruction. Any time they want they can plug a new allegation to it and immediately have an investigation.

Trump is Palin, with more money.

The deepstate, virtually unknown six years ago, is shouting loud and proud that yes, it is deepstate, and there’s nothing anyone can do about it.

Mueller was a partisan hack when he worked out this way in CaCaLand. Having him take over as head FBI turd guaranteed the ensuing corruption.

Yes, I called FBI turds. Keep the lab, liquidate the rest. Or, at least everyone above 1st level supervisor. 1st level get there on merit. Above that you have to be a professional butt kisser.
