And where does that “honest agent” turn once Hillary is sworn in? We have seen for eight years what happens when you think you can just wait them out. That was our mistake with Zero. Last chance. No more mistakes to make.
Corruption is that way. It is sort of like pregnant. No such thing as a little and it just gets worse and worse.
I am not trying to excuse anyone, just put it into perspective. There’s a reason Armies are composed of young men.
I had a boss who always said, “old age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill.” Now, I think he was wrong, but it does illustrate the different tactics than man engages throughout his life. A man will kill if he has to when he’s young, but an old man will kill you simply because you may be a threat.
All of the players in this plot are old. Their very name indicates their place—the establishment. They will do whatever it takes to protect themselves. The Kabuki theater of partisanship politics is only played for an external audience. Their only loyalty is to their own power.
The honest agents have already been reassigned. They are off the grid in small towns across the country. There will be miscommunication, irregular hours, minor incidents that result in tardiness, poor judgment, and documentation. The stress of such environments could lead anyone to substance abuse.
It’s been the downfall of many truly good men.

I spent years in civil court fighting the government, and I “won.” unfortunately, that won’t get me my house or my life savings back.
