How the current impeachment “trial” turns out is anybody’s guess but hardly the only unknown in theongoing coup against President Trump. As many believe, if nobody in the FBI or DOJ winds up doing prison time, the Deep State wins and future presidents will face similar coup attempts. Some clues on what might or might not happen to FBI bosses emerged Sunday in “Government on Trial,” a Fox News documentary on the FBI siege at Ruby Ridge, Idaho, in 1992.
That operation targeted the family of Randy Weaver, whom the establishment media relentlessly smeared as a “white separatist” and “white supremacist” with possible links to the Aryan Nations. As the FBI knew, Weaver was not a member of the group, and as Weaver testified to the Senate in 1995, “I don’t hate people because of being a different race. I don’t hate anybody. I believe there are good and bad in every race, and I have always taught that.”
On the other hand, Weaver could be accurately described as a biblical survivalist. He moved his family from Iowa to northern Idaho to prepare for bad times and the possible breakdown of society. Such survivalism had been on the rise since the latter days of the Carter administration, when the end did seem to be at hand.
Like many in rural Idaho, Weaver and his family were fully armed. On the other hand, they lived peacefully and perpetrated no attacks against neighbors. The ATF tried to entrap Weaver on a gun charge and an exchange of fire claimed the lives of a U.S. Marshall and Weaver’s 14-year-old son, Samuel. That brought in the FBI, which deployed 400 heavily armed agents, helicopters, armored personnel carriers, and trained snipers all against a single family.

Subsequently, the police state knew they could depend on the expression related the the tent and the camel's nose... Absolutely nothing and no one has attempted to either stop them or slow them down...
And speaking of Ruby Ridge, one wonders where Lon Horiuchi is, still, to this day.
I guess he never resurfaced after he murdered Vicki Weaver and went into state-protected hiding...
You can’t be a “good “ FBI agent anymore. It’s not career enhancing.
I hear ya...
I have no idea either. What you said sounds reasoned.
I start counting at May 14, 1948.
When do you count from?
The Coup Klutz Clan?
You beat me to it—still a great name for them,
You left burning babies alive and murdering innocent people.
Don’t forget how the FBI and CIA totally screwed the pooch on 9/11 totally incompetent beyond incompetent both organizations NEED to be cleaned out entirely!!!
Bringing up Barr in an article about Ruby Ridge is apropos. Barr gave pro-bono legal assistance to Lon Hourchi. That should tell you everything you need to know about where he stands.
Here's an article about Bill Barr's relationship with Lon Horiuchi
Read it and weep for our republic.
I’ve had concerns about that also.
I hear ya. Good grief.
Sadly, how does a president protect himself from people like this? The get embedded in the system, and sooner or later they can bubble to the surface.
It’s infuriating actually.
At this point, I don't think there is anything we can do short of spilling buckets of blood. It doesn't appear we, as a people, have a stomach for that. I think our republic is lost.
I’d say over 90% of the populace wouldn’t even grasp the reason for it with regard to Horiuchi or Barr.
Trying to get blanker immunity for all agents, to kill anyone they don’t like.
Seriously!
Shameful.
We are compromised on so many levels.
