A cynical public now expects any accused prominent leftist to remain unindicted, while any non-leftwing target will be indicted, convicted, and jailed—for the same alleged offenses.
In 2011, then Homeland Security Advisor to President Obama, John Brennan, swore before Congress that drone-targeted assassination missions near the Pakistani border had not led to “a single collateral death.”
That was an obvious lie with grave consequences, given that Brennan was sworn under oath and was one of the top officials in the US national security community. Yet there were no subsequent repercussions.
In fact, the opposite occurred. Brennan was subsequently rewarded with a 2013 appointment as CIA Director.
But the next year, once again, Brennan lied to Congress, assuring the Senate Intelligence Committee that his CIA had not secretly accessed senate staffers’ computers. Again, there were no consequences for his repeated lies. Instead, Brennan, upon retirement, went on to be an MSNBC/NBC analyst who helped to promulgate the Russian collusion/laptop disinformation hoaxes.
In 2013, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper also lied under oath to Congress when he laughably stated that the National Security Agency did not spy on American citizens. Later, when called out by senators, Clapper fudged in a televised interview. “I responded in what I thought was the most truthful, or least untruthful, manner by saying no.” Try that contortion with the IRS.
Some members of Congress referred a criminal complaint of perjury against Brennan to then Attorney General Eric Holder. Nothing happened. Again, one of the chiefs of the American national security community was exempted after lying to members of Congress.
Clapper went on to a lucrative position as a CNN national security analyst, and at one point he claimed that Trump was a Putin “asset.”
As far as Eric Holder, he had earlier defied a congressional subpoena...

Brennan, Clapper, Holder, and many others should be indicted by President Trump’s attorney general.
BTTT
Prosecute them all. And if the Statute of Limitations ha s run out, a Republican Congress can follow the precedent set in New York in the E Jean Carroll case by doing a temporary waive of the statute so the case can be filed. All’s fair in lawfare.
Most certainly, however, pounding home that fact will motivate them to use even more means to corrupt upcoming elections. The "them" in this instance, of course, is all of the individuals and entities that have liability for involvement in the steal of the last election.
So the question is whether publishing the intent to address such criminal action will garner more votes than will increase the level of corruption.
There won’t be any indictments, because they have weaponized the intelligence agencies and turned them inward, to become the secret police. So now they have blackmail on every politician, prosecutor, and judge in the country.
“ The REAL criminals go free.”
And become shills for libtards on fake news day after day. The more crooked the libtard the more fake news wants to hire them to smear their political opponents

“Brennan, Clapper, Holder, and many others should be indicted by President Trump’s attorney general.”
This is exactly why they will cheat at all costs to not lose this election. They cannot have this happen. If you thought the last steal was unbelievable, this next one will be so obvious and blatant, and they won’t give a sh*t.
There WILL be payback!
It all begins on Jan 20, 2025!
Don’t get your hopes up.
All we have is time, talent and treasure.
I intend to devote as much of all three to ensure that Donald J. Trump becomes POTUS 47!
If enough of us do that, he will!
Pray that God will expose the corruption of our government “leaders” and will remove the unrighteous and those who pervert justice in this nation. He can either give them a Damascus Road experience, or He can remove and replace them with righteous leaders.
