I just looked up the “consequences” that Sandy Berger had for stealing incriminating documents from the national archives.
Again, he knew that the information he was destroying had far greater consequences than he would receive for destroying it.
$50,000 fine, community service and probation.
You know for a fact that he got 10 or 100 times that in compensation for destroying evidence linking Bill Clinton’s malfeasance to 9/11.
$50K is mere pocket change for him and his masters. He should have done serious time for theft of the nation’s records.
Had he been a Republican he wouldn’t be walking the streets today.
