Welcome to the Job FBI Director James Comey, you will be bent over on a regular basis, get use to it, or stand up for your country.

I predict there will come a day when we will see the rise of ‘Citizen Tribunals’ which will track down, apprehend those who have managed to skate, and then redress these gross miscarriages of justice.

And those officials who have enabled and empowered this corruption of our justice system?

They won’t be happy campers either.

Thank the lesser evil voters and their KAPOs here on /fr and elsewhere that DEMANDED we elect the lesser evil Republicans.

They gave us this, Planned Parenthood funding, useless dog and pony show investigations, armed terrorists and a whole lot more.

Somebody elected the republicans that washed their hands of this. Perhaps some of you know one who did.

"Well then they can expect it to happen again."

What is to prevent them from openly rigging the next Federal election now? They can do anything and a corrupt DOJ, FBI, etc will simply sweep it all away and then those who raised their voices will be persecuted and locked up.

“Justice” Department?

Gimme a break.

The good news is when we take over we'll target liberal groups... now we have a precedent. Seems it's ‘no big deal’ to target American citizens for their political beliefs... that leaves liberal groups open the to type of harassment they dealt out... Maybe they'll learn empathy... or fair play or something....

It's a goose and gander thing...
