'Straight Shooter' Justice Dept. Watchdog Has Held His Fire on Powerful People (Letdown coming)
Real Clear Investigations ^ | September 30, 2019 | By Paul Sperry,

Posted on 09/30/2019 11:26:03 PM PDT by Hostage

As Justice Department Inspector General Michael E. Horowitz finalizes his probe of allegations of abuses surrounding the surveillance of a Trump campaign aide, some colleagues and Republican lawmakers say they have no doubt he's conducted a tough, impartial investigation. They expect him to deliver a hard-hitting report, due for release next month.

Others are more skeptical. While acknowledging that Horowitz is widely respected, these critics say his work has long been hampered by biases, conflicts and a tendency to play favorites, as in past probes of former FBI Director James Comey, whom Horowitz worked under in New York.

What else does one expect when the government investigates itself?

Whenever the government is involved in suspected crimes, it should not be allowed to investigate itself.

A commission of selected citizens who do not draw a .gov paycheck should do the investigation.

None of them should be Attorney General.

These people and this corrupt machinery needs to go.

Yes, now that you mention it, rest assured that Horowitz will find a way to have it both ways.

Meanwhile... "Free Beer Tomorrow!!"

You can put your faith and trust in a politician if you want to.

I have no use or need for this person. He’s never done a single thing that I know of.

I don’t have any use or need for any of them, and I don’t trust any of them. They are all liars.

People did nothing to help her and her husband, they just took pictures. So the chances of a Civil War are non existent.


Yep. Can’t have a civil war when only one side is fighting.

So we eject all 2 million federal workers and replace them with? And then start the purge all over again ad-infinitum until you become the beneficent dictator? Is that the thought process here. Logic unbounded.

Replace them with nothing.

Like I said, the machinery needs to go.

If the machinery remains, these people will always return to it. They are never going to stop.

The machinery that allows control over others is an electromagnet to these evil bastards.

I don’t want to give anyone power over me anymore, because as is readily apparent, people have gone mad.

No government=Anarchy. I have nihilistic tendencies too but no construct leaves a vacuum that will be filled. What it’s filled with you won’t like, I promise. You will have power imposed on you.

The only way forward is as the founders diagrammed in the Constitution of the United States. We have the power over them. We need to exert that power. This take time.

What it is filled with now, I do not like.

Governments have killed more people in this world than any other thing.

We have a very dangerous beast growing in this country. It is not going to be trained.

I understand what you are saying about anarchy, but we are headed in the direction of total control right now, and they are using the machinery of the federal government to assert that control.

If their toys aren’t taken away from them, they will kill us with them. It’s as simple as that.

Yes.

I view them collectively as a stalker personality. They know what’s best for us, but we rejected them, so now they will impose it upon us whether we like it or not.

And if they can’t have us, no one can.

I think this behavior, when seen in relationships, but also as seen in liberals in this country, is a result of a psychopathic personality. There seem to be a lot of these today.

This type of thing ends badly often. This one, I think, is going to come to a head next year.

If they can’t defeat him, they are going to go nuts.

If they can defeat him, they are going to take revenge on us.

Did anyone happen to see, on Fox yesterday, the video of an elderly lady with a walker crossing the street, who was stopped and verbally attacked by ANTIFA? They had surrounded her and would not let her pass, screaming. People did nothing to help her and her husband, they just took pictures. So the chances of a Civil War are non existent.

The incident was in Canada.

Exactly what do you want President Trump to do?

Wasn't Horowitz another one we were supposed to trust?

What a joke.

My comment had nothing to do with Trump. He is doing all he can with this lawless nation, in fact he is being assaulted by legitimately elected TERRORISTS who are posing as lawmakers. My point was, that a clearly handicapped elderly woman, probably in her eighties along with her husband were verbally attacked and surrounded by ANTIFA terrorists. Instead of someone defending them and challenging the thugs, they stood by and took pictures/ videos.
