They say justice delayed is justice denied. Similarly, the law applied selectively is also justice denied. For any given action that is considered to be a violation of the law, the punishment should be equal, irrespective of who the perpetrator is.
The only countries
where laws are applied selectively are totalitarian dictatorships – there you
get away with murder if you are an ally of the regime and you could be sent to
prison for a prolonged period not returning a book from a public library before
the due date.
Last week’s raid on
President Trump’s Mar-A-Lago home made it amply clear that there is a two-tier
justice system.
Back in 2015,
presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, as Secretary of state, had emailed
classified government materials using her personal email address.
Did the FBI raid her
home to confiscate the server?
Emphatically not
Back in 2016, when
the presidential campaign was at its crucial stage, then FBI Director James
Comey reported that Clinton had broken the law. However, he added that
Clinton’s violations weren’t intentional hence it would be no indictments.
Comey was the FBI
director, yet he assumed the role of
investigator and prosecutor. Obama’s Attorney General
Loretta Lynch's silence proved that approved of Comey's actions. It was also
revealed had secretly met with Bill Clinton on an airport tarmac.
Has Comey always been
this lenient?
The very
same Comey revealed he sent agent Peter Strzok on a preplanned mission to trap
National Security Advisor Michael Flynn in hopes of finding Flynn in violation
of the Logan Act, a 1799 law that has never been prosecuted successfully. Flynn
was fired for lying to the vice president and the FBI. He was subjected
to a prolonged legal nightmare
In the end, Flynn,
who is a patriot was vilified and bankrupted by legal fees. His crime?
Challenging the status quo and attempting to drain the swamp. Flynn’s
lawyer Sidney Powell revealed that Flynn had intended to audit the intelligence
agencies as Trump’s National Security Advisor. Hence he was stopped.
The Mar-a-Lago raid
was a coup de grâce that cemented the FBI's reputation as a rogue and deeply politicized
agency.
The FBI’s reputation
desperately needed to be salvaged.
So whom do they get
to mend the FBI’s reputation?
Former FBI
Counterintelligence Deputy Assistant Director Peter Strzok.
The same Strzok who
was the FBI’s head investigator into alleged Russian meddling in the
2016 elections and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton‘s private
email server. Both of which were driven by political bias.
Strzok had no
compunction trapping General Flynn which led to his myriad hardships. Strzok bragged to
his mistress FBI lawyer Lisa Page via text that they “won't
allow" Trump to get elected and if Trump did win in 2016, they had an
‘insurance policy’.
By ‘insurance policy’
Strzok was referring to the myriad Kafkaesque investigations that would be
launched to force Trump out of office, to prevent him from implementing his
agenda, and destroy his reputation. They numerous gratuitous investigations
on myriad fronts and the raid is part of the insurance policy.
Strzok unwittingly
revealed the mindset of the FBI leadership. Anybody who dares to contemplate
challenging or reforming the nation's primary law enforcement agency will be
tormented for life. Even if nothing is found, the process becomes the
equivalent of a punishment.
Strzok was
ultimately fired from the agency, not for going rogue or being partisan
but because his mentality became public. There must be many rogue agents who
have engaged in similar exchanges or have done worse but they do it discretely without
being recorded.
Yes, Strzok is the
man MSNBC summoned in an attempt to restore the reputation of the FBI.
Strzok told Joe
Scarborough that Trump “has spent his entire adult life living on the margins of the law, pushing up to the edge, seeing what he
can get away with and then pushing a step or two beyond that”
and “here comes a point where no man is above the law.”
Strzok was a rogue
agent who operated margins of the law, pushing up to the edge, seeing what he
can get away with. Yet he had no hesitation accusing Trump of doing the very
same.
Strzok added the
following:
“There comes a point
that there are things that you do if you are holding these highly,
highly classified documents… that if they fell into the hands of an
unauthorized party, let alone a Russian intelligence officer, a Chinese
intelligence officer, would cause massive damage to the national security.”
Did Strzok forget
that Mar-a-Lago is guarded by the secret service and that it isn't Eric
Swalwell's bedroom that agents of adversarial foreign powers frequent.
“Absolutely the
American public should trust what the FBI is doing, It’s not that the FBI is
targeting any one side or the other. What you see is the FBI going out on a
day-in, day-out basis objectively investigating allegations of law."
Strzok told co-host
Joe Scarborough that it was "funny" there was "no outrage"
from Republicans when he was working at the agency as he and his colleagues
used search warrants and combed through former Secretary of State Hillary
Clinton's emails.
Strzok complained
that there is “a one-sided narrative that has been developed and
amplified, particularly by President Trump, going back to 2015 and 2016."
Did Strzok forget
that Comey cleared Hillary despite ample proof of violations while the
tormented Trump without any reason?
They say the
self-righteous seldom have self-awareness. It is funny that neither MSNBC nor
bookers of Morning Joe or Strzok had any comprehension of how ironic his
presence was.
Strzok presence on
MSNBC to defend the FBI’s reputation provides a fascinating insight into the
Democrat Eco-system and their ties to the deep state.
The only
qualification to be a part of this ecosystem is that you have to be a vicious
far-left partisan. You can go to any extent to go after those who do not
subscribe to your groupthink.
If you go too far and
if you are sacked, there is no need to worry. The ecosystem will facilitate
another lucrative assignment.
The very same
happened to Andrew McCabe who became acting FBI director after Comey was fired by Trump
McCabe oversaw the
email investigation that exonerated Hillary Clinton—at the very time his wife
was running for office in Virginia, aided by funding from a political action
committee with ties to the Clintons. McCabe purportedly discussed wearing a
wire while meeting Trump, in hopes of recording embarrassing private
conversations that would help convince the cabinet to remove him under the 25th
Amendment. McCabe was fired by Trump.
Yet, McCabe is a
pundit on CNN.
Irrespective if one
is a true believer or not, being liberal is certainly a lucrative career
choice, it is also a safe choice, and there is seldom any punishment or
accountability. You can do as you please as long as it is for the 'greater good'
