Justice is coming?

Only when justice is served will we know that it was a sure thing.

It’s not an inability; it’s an unwillingness. One of the problems is that all these bad actors have so much dirt on their bosses, prosecutors, and those around them, they would take a lot of others down with them if they were prosecuted.

I’m on the inside too, for different basis from “working in uniform.” All the judgment calls are personal. They have some basis in law, to be sure, but discretion is an awesome power.

-- ... when they go look for our guns or land like the Ranchers in Nevada, it is the government which makes the riot and subversion, not us. --

Yep. And that is self evident. Who "goes looking?"

As you say, it is what it is.

Re: Trump watches. Now we wait.

By my count, Trump has been watching for 29 months.

Maybe we should elect someone who knows how to enforce existing laws instead of reelecting someone who is completely helpless against the Democrats, the MSM, the federal judiciary, and the Deep State.

Yeah, I do get tired of hearing the radio commentators say that meaningless phrase over and over again. And the “rank and file” never DO anything about it.

Saying the DOJ is just a little corrupt at the top is like telling us that there is just a little tiny bit of raw sewage in our drinking water.

Basically the FedGov is incapable of prosecuting itself.

Let’s say for sake of argument that the unlikely occurs and someone like Comey or Brennan is indicted. They go to trial before a jury of DC residents. Do you REALLY think that in that company town they are ever going to get convicted?

Somehow the power to investigate and prosecute FedGov crimes needs to be turned back to the states.
