When Chuck Schumer said - with an approving smirk - that the intelligence agencies have “six ways from Sunday to get back at their critics,” he told us that we no longer live in a free country under the rule of law. He told us that the FBI now exists to serve the left, that people like Schumer have little to fear no matter what they do, and that conservatives better watch their backs. Nothing since then has changed that impression, only reinforced it.
I keep thinking that using the FBI, CIA, BLM, IRS in punitive ways has gone on for many years, albeit far more discreetly compared to now. The ramping up of this usage happened under Obama’s two terms. They put a spiked DEMOCRAT collar and leash on these powerful dogs of the government.
The muzzle and leash are applied when the offender is a Democrat or Socialist.
