Sadly, no.
We are all used to the corruption of the justice system by the Clintons and the Dems, as well as cowardly Republicans afraid to rock the boat, or getting a cut of the graft.
But I am encouraged by what I see. If honor and integrity were restored to the DoJ, I believe that it would play out like this - careful investigations done without publicity.
I also don't believe that the political impact of these scandalous crimes could possibly have been missed, or the importance of these midterm elections. That is why I would anticipate that the public rollout would naturally be laid out in a media campaign, during the election season - which happens to kick off around now, after the primaries, and into the general.
Everything is showing up right on cue (IG Report, witnesses, document releases) for a string of blockbuster Congressional hearings, every week in June.
I anticipate criminal charges, so that when we get into the height of the campaign (Sep/Oct), the really big developments can hit. I don't know what they will be, but a competent strategist would save some big ones for then.
I think it is very necessary to preserve the rule of law, and our constitutional liberties from being surreptitiously undermined, that the abusers of office from the Obama Administration be punished - or we might never have the chance again. So I don't mind at all a bit of strategic timing.
It really looks to me that they know the big picture in the White House, the AG's office, and the Oversight Committees; and that they have the goods on the wrongdoers - and they have the balls to follow through.
That is probably the key question that you are getting at - do they have the backbone to prosecute and convict? If I am right, I anticipate that this scandal should move into open criminal investigation or charges in June, and snowball from there.
