I'm not referring to the institutional norm of giving a pass to DOJ and FBI and other people in the privileged class. That's bad enough, but it isn't the only barrier.
The prosecutor has to find a criminal statute that fits the offense. The is no statute against the government planting a hoax with the press. The actors get a legal defense on any illegal snooping crime because they got a court to grant a warrant. Maybe that can be undone, if the court certifies the warrant was void ab initio. Some can be charged with perjury of false statements, the process crimes associated with the investigations into the investigators.
Off the top of my head, that's all the criminal punishment that is potentially on the table.
Congress never wrote a law against mass deception instigated by the government for the purpose of throwing an election. It never wrote a statute against conspiracy to depose a president by government process (Special Prosecutor plus leaks to the press) knowingly based on lies and deceit.
Those actions represent complete breach of trust by pretty much the whole government against its people. Member of Congress are in on it, State Dept, DoD, DOJ (including FBI), large swaths of the intelligence community, courts, foreign governments -- all acting in concert with the same purpose. Deny the people their choice for president by first misleading them, and if that don't work, process crime, impeachment, and the usual noise from a fundamentally dishonest press.
If the government was honest now, it would not be working so diligently to cover up what it did.
There is no remorse or contrition. Rather the reverse. Smug self-righteousness.
And when the public comes to realize what their government has done to them, we will get the usual promises that "this will never happen again." For the 30th time.
“The prosecutor has to find a criminal statute that fits the offense.”
Treason?, Sedition?
I am not a legal beagle enough to argue the point with you. Many respected pundits have expressed confidence that many felonies have been committed. I can only accept their word for now.
Of course there is the Hatch Act and the Logan Act, but I do not know how much weight that they carry. What I can say is that - if there are no laws to prohibit government employees to conspire together and with foreign powers to overthrow a Constitutionally legally executed popular election in order to seize supreme power away from the people in favor of residing with unelected government bureaucrats, then the Republic is finished right now!
Could you please petition the ruling bureaucracy to assign me to the re-education camp that is appropriate for my incarceration and correction. Of course they can choose to send in a SWAT team and Hostage Rescue Team {a la Ruby Ridge} to simply kill me and simplify the whole matter.
I am completely prepared to accept the consequences.
