Read it! America hangs in the balance.

It has taken a long time, but finally the Justice Department is training its guns on what heretofore was unthinkable, unless you are a career civil libertarian. For years the civil libertarians have been warning us that the intelligence community posed a threat to democracy, as we know it in these United States. Every so often they would point to some excess of the FBI or the CIA and tell us that the lights were going out in democratic America. Does not the Washington Post run atop its front page the maudlin line, “Democracy Dies in Darkness”?
Well, the darkness descended upon Donald Trump the moment he decided to run for president. The FBI and CIA, in cahoots with Mrs. Hillary Clinton and those popularizing the infamous “dossier” she financed, threw a blanket of darkness over his campaign.
Late last week we learned that what had been a Justice Department administrative review had suddenly become much more serious. It has become a criminal inquiry. That means the Justice Department believes there is sufficient evidence that a crime has been committed. Now the prosecutor in charge, John H. Durham, will have the power to subpoena witnesses’ testimony and documents. He can convene a grand jury and file criminal charges. My guess is that he has already convened a grand jury. Mr. Durham and Attorney General William Barr have been looking into the origins of the Obama administration’s spying on Trump. Just how did it begin? And who exactly started it? They are clearly unsettled by the answers they have found so far.

The FBI and particularly the CIA are rotten to the core and should be disbanded.
It’s not going to happen, so enjoy your serfdom.
Just how did it begin? And who exactly started it?

Everything leads back to Usurpation Day.
It’s nothing less than treason.
I’m still no holding my breath.
Read it! America hangs in the balance.
For the FBI it began with J. Edgar Hoover; for the CIA it began with Stansfield Turner.
“Everything leads back to Usurpation Day.”
Go read Eisenhower’s farewell address.
I look for glaring omission in the MSM. It is happening, and the networks will not report it, and the newspapers will not print it, and the Sunday morning talking heads will note its passing with disdain, and dismissal.
Did we really expect more???
Think What Drives The Trump Haters, to understand the neurotic mindset, which drives the sheep promoting today's absurdity.
Read Police State by Gerry Spence....
The DOJ and FBI plus others have been corrupt for forty years..
Randy Weaver... is an example...entraptment ..and out of control prosecutors
they committed murder and no one ever went to jail
So then Richard Helms, Allen Dulles, James Jesus Angleton and William J Casey were probably the last of the “good guys” at CIA.
I’m dreaming of a Morning Roundup. Herding all the perps into local jails all over DC.
OK, Jr. Use the platform to echo the call to, “LOCK THEM UP”.
Go read Eisenhower’s farewell address.“Everything leads back to Usurpation Day.” - Lurkinanloomin
In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex . . Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together.Akin to, and largely responsible for the sweeping changes in our industrial-military posture, has been the technological revolution during recent decades. In this revolution, research has become central; it also becomes more formalized, complex, and costly. A steadily increasing share is conducted for, by, or at the direction of, the Federal government.
. . . the free university . . . has experienced a revolution in the conduct of research. Partly because of the huge costs involved, a government contract becomes virtually a substitute for intellectual curiosity . . . The prospect of domination of the nation's scholars by Federal employment, project allocations, and the power of money . . . is gravely to be regarded.
Yet . . . we must also be alert to the equal and opposite danger that public policy could itself become the captive of a scientific-technological elite. Eisenhower’s Farewell Address
Reforming the FBI with key criminal convictions and proper leadership is possible and vital, as the FBI conducts domestic counterintelligence activities that the military constitutionally cannot perform. President Trump's real target is the unaccountable and irredeemable entity at Langley, which must be disbanded and returned to its pre-1947 status under military jurisdiction.
Removing the former Office of Strategic Services from military control was a mistake that President Truman quickly regretted. I believe that President Trump recognizes this and wants all of our foreign intelligence activities within the Department of Defense - where the non-political Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), National Security Agency (NSA), National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) and National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) already rightfully reside. Time will tell, but that's how it looks to this observer.
“Richard Helms, Allen Dulles, James Jesus Angleton and William J Casey”
Reminds me of the old Johnny Carson routine: “Which doesn’t belong, and why?”

It’s impossible for me to believe any of those agencies are non-political after being stuffed full of true believers by the Kenyanesian Usurper.

Question is, who all replaced them.
“Democracy dies in the darkness” is no longer their warning; it is their Mission Statement.
