John Durham ended his investigation of the FBI lying and spying on Donald Trump at the behest of Obama. Instead of sending anyone to prison for this sedition and treachery, Durham placed a 316-page letter in their permanent record. The deep state broke the law and used Durham to rub our noses in it. What are we going to do?
40% of the brain dead public will believe the AP, CNN, WAPO, NYDN, NYTimes, etc.
We no longer live under the rule of law. We’ve known this for a while. This seals the deal.
The FBI is more corrupt than ever, joined by many other agencies such as the CIA and the IRS.
The poll was a lay-up. Pray to God. Take his advice on what we can do to take our country back. Pray for my kids and grandkids futures. I don’t want them growing up in post WWII Poland-like conditions, but in 2023 Poland-like conditions.
I have no interest in Mr. Durham since any time someone in Washington DC "investigates" something five years after the fact, you know it is a lie. You brought up former MA senate president Billy Bulger. Just how corrupt was he and is he. Let's bring up his UMass presidency because this is bad enough. Bulger was appointed as President of the entire UMass system about 30 years ago. Under his guiding hand (...in the cookie jar), he gave himself all sorts of additional titles that, in effect, doubled his salary, much as he did with all those former MA politicians that joined him at UMass. During Bulger's tenure at UMass, the average class size went from about 35% to 19%, yet when the Covid crises hit and there were no students on campus, the entire UMass system kept all faculty and maintenance personnel at full-time status and I left the state it was so corrupt. For those who think democrat graft and corruption is only in DC, it is disgraceful everywhere. So, as far as todays poll goes, only an Act Of God can destroy this horror story.

The only option that offers even the slightest hope is #2 - hence, it's the one I selected. Despite the fact that one of a righteous man is powerful and effective (James 5:16), I'm not sure it will hasten what the Almighty already has in store for ALL who are wicked. Not to suggest that doing so is futile, or without value, it is, if only to keep our focus Heavenward.
"And they got away with it because no one in Washington will hold anyone in Washington accountable. It is the code of the totalitarians."
That isn't entirely true - Republicans are frquently held to account for Democrats' crimes. See Scooter Libby, Gen. Mike Flynn, et al. Rather, no Democrats in Washington will hold any Democrat accountable.
I do believe the day is coming when, in the immortal words of Popeye, the sailor man, "I've had all I can stand 'til I can stands no more!", then watch out.
There is nothing more dangerous than a man with nothing left to lose.
There is going to be some privately administered justice before the real Judgement Day arrives.
The Marxist cancer in America has metastasized so severely across our institutions that it will take a miracle from our God to restore our nation.
“If my people which are called by my name, shall humble themselves and pray, then I will hear from heaven, forgive their sins, and heal their land”. 2 Chronicles 7-14.
Sundance writes:"The bottom line is that everything the Obama justice department, IC and FBI did, to include support from Republicans in congress during the 2016 election and aftermath, was a coup d’état against U.S. President Donald Trump and his administration. This is the truth of the thing.
"The U.S. media participation and subsequent denial of their culpability looks increasingly pathetic in the aftermath of the report outlined by Special Counsel John Durham. However, it doesn’t take a media admission of the coup effort for the demonstrable actions and evidence of the coup to be factual."
Mueller investigation was purely a means of obscuring the coup d'etat: the treason of the Obama team.
We all know Obama engineered a coup d'etat. He promised to "fundamentally transform America." What are we going to do about it?
There are two main approaches, one is to support Donald Trump for 2024.
The second approach calls for a Civil Dissolution from the Marxist States of America and the founding of a new democratic republic, with a new constitution.
The civil dissolution approach states that there is no possible compromise with Marxists or globalist totalitarians. The rule of law is dead in the US. The civil dissolution approach states that Donald Trump will not be able to save the country since every federal agency is filled with deep state employees whose allegiance is not to American citizens but to globalist totalitarian Marxists. In addition, the last election showed that honest candidates cannot get elected when the vote counters are dishonest criminals. We also know that no court will take an election fraud case on its merits once the election is over.
In addition, around the world CBDCs are being instituted, and in the US this is well on its way. Krysten Sinema has a bill before Congress that would require all Americans to have a digital ID which will enable complete and total tracking of everything every citizen does. Once there are CBDCs instituted, that will be it, game over.
I am too old to see it bear fruit but I fear the left has sown the seeds of a revolution that they will not see coming and they will have no way of stopping and they will be finally and totally destroyed because of it. It may take a generation but trying to silence and disarm a free people may not be quite as easy as they imagine and the blowback will be devastating when it arrives.
And the truly interesting outcome may come as a result of their trust in technology which if it follows logic and reason will see the evil that has been wrought and may just be the tree that ultimately bears the fruit of freedom, if not then mankind will be doomed to live under the yoke of these liars and thieves and their progeny.
I have said I favor disbanding the FBI. The WSJ has a good editorial this morning that parses the Durham conclusions a little differently than this column and that avoids calling for getting rid of the agency. They conclude that Durham does not recommend changing the FBI, rather that the Fibbbies should be challenged to live up to their own standards, which they clearly abandoned under people like Comey, Strzok, et al.
While I have little hope this will actually happen, we can put it out there as a goal and tell Christopher Wray we expect him to respond and to get away from the corrupt way his bureau acted over the past half decade.
I would still like to see the most blatant offenders wearing orange jump suits (I'm looking at you, Strzok), but we can't expect to see that in the company town that D.C. has become. More important than reforming the FBI, the American press needs to stop acting like a cheering gallery for everything the left endorses.
In the year 330, 300 years after the resurrection of Christ, Constantinople replaced Rome as the world’s new superpower, recognizing Christianity as the official religion, and lasting over 1000 years.
In 1783, the United States of America became a Constitutional Republic, its Constitution composed and based upon Judeo-Christian principles and tenets. That was about 240 years ago.
In both cases, these 2 super-powers with Christianity as their basis and guiding light, brought forth nations that benefitted all the world.
The French Revolution, by contrast, was a social-political, secular-based Revolution which resulted in the Reign of Terror, wars with other European countries, and finally Napoleon as dictator.
I chose PRAY in the poll, because, should Revolution be that which is set before us, it is Critical to its success that it be inspired, led and guided by Christ. History has taught us this, and not just by those three examples.
I have no idea where we are to go from here, or what will happen in the face of such pronounced evil being foisted upon us at such an alarming rate and in such a flagrant manner. But one thing I do know, is that those of us who believe in the One, True God, Jesus Christ, must remain faithful and willing, and open to His Will for each one of us. This world is not our ultimate destination but we each are here for a purpose, to fulfill God’s will in our lives. It is incumbent upon each of us to pray to be obedient to that still, small voice of God within us to know what He wills for us in the face of the darkness that is descending upon us all. Thy will be done, O Lord, not mine.
Durham, threw enough chum in the water so the sharks would eat the smaller fish while the bigger ones got away. He pointed out the obvious that all the agencies were corrupt and had their hands on the scale of justice. Yet by design, he left out evidence of the biggest culprits, Mr. Obama, and the puppeteer’s who are running him. In addition, he waited until the statute of limitation has run out so once again, nothing will be done.

It seems that everything is moving in 1 direction that condemns the right and protects the left. I honestly don't see how we can go back to a middle road course. If the bureaucrats can get away with all of this and more, one individual won't be able to fix it. We vote, they cheat, courts don't accept the cases. Kids want to go to school as "furries". BLM and Antifa are paid off after committing murder and J6 trespassers rot in a DC jail. Young kids are being brainwashed instead of educated. We waste trillions of taxpayer money. We have no borders. We will be going bankrupt because of the overload of illegal aliens. Our military instills fear when the Trans special ops units face off with the Chinese, Russians, Iranians, and N Korean testosterone infused troops {sarc}. I could go on but enough. Most of the people running this country are apparently on the dole because they are not upholding their oath of office.
I've written a dozen responses that would challenge "War and Peace" in length.
My experiences in the world of politics made me realize the cronyism infects the entire political system from dog catcher all the way up the POTUS. It has to be fixed at the bottom. Towns, city precincts, county supervisor. As soon as you put a human being into a position where they can manipulate the laws to benefit their pocketbooks it will happen. It is easier to monitor and correct on the local level. All municipalities look for Federal and state dollars to accomplish projects however all those dollars come with strings attachrf and that is where the trouble starts. I've seen it up close and personal.
I can't think of one example of proper justice of corrupt politicians in recent history. Yet the persecution of the right is a crime in itself.
I think the first order of civil disobedience is a million man armed March to the DC gullags to physically free the J6 protesters. That would be a good first step and show we conservatives actually do have a backbone.
Lord Acton said, "Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely." And the power corrupts not just our "leaders" (Obama, Hillary, Biden, etc.) but nearly everyone working for them down to the greenest FBI agent and DOJ apparatchik. This power has also corrupted the mainstream media (ABCBSNBC, MSNBC, CNN, WaPo, NYT, and the others) along with George Stephanopolis, Chuck Todd, "Moscow" Maddow, Brian "Tater" Stelter, and the rest of the "talking heads". So - as The Clash asked in their song, "Clampdown", "Whadda we gonna do now?"
That's a different take on John Durham, though I understand it and see it, and I didn't know the history.
What gets buried in all this is that not only did the FBI and CIA and the Obama administration create this fake narrative about Donald Trump, but agents were *forced* to drop investigations into the Clinton Foundation and the Clinton campaign, the latter for taking illegal foreign campaign contributions. The investigation into the Clinton Foundation was effectively dropped in February 2016, which was even before the first primary, so it would have had no effect on the general election. The Democrats could have just chosen someone else. So basically, the Deep State, the entrenched bureaucracy, the Elephant and Ass Show (whatever you want to call it), had already decided Clinton was going to be their next figure head and the people could just shut up and like it.
Once again you're over the target. I actually enjoy your musings. But once again you're stating the obvious, thank you. This is an exercise in futility, like mental masturbation, feels good yet no one notices. They will rule over the ashes! They don't care about nothing but POWER, look at he likes of these octogenarians running this shit show, most look as though they all should be strapped into a geriatrics chair and pushed either out in the sun room or off a fucking cliff, yeah still with egg around their stubble. Schumer, Piglosi, McConnel, Feinstein, Fetterman, you cannot make this shit up, one is as dumb as they are incompetent, None of them could find their asshole with a funnel and one hand tied behind their back in a dark room! They were all crying what will happen when title 42 ends, absolutely nothing because the border has been open by Xiden since this assclown was installed as emperor. I suppose this is all Obama's doing, the great transformation of a once powerful republic into a heaping, steaming pile of BULL SHIT. I hope you're all proud, sit and let this all go on, it's been proven that you cannot vote 'em out, look at 2020, 2022, and 2024 will be yeah you got it, more of the same. In order to change it, you are gonna have to kill 'em all. We no longer have a DOJ, CIA, FBI, or even a government that represents the people! It's just one big cluster fuck, one piece of shit investigation after the other and NOTHING or NO ONE is ever arrested except those peaceful protesters that were let in with open arms and doors held wide open by the crapitol hill police. I'll say it again as sad as it may be, I wish that plane had made it to crapitol hill? In my working years prior to retirement, one was yeah working and didn't have time to really pay attention to politics, these sleazeballs were doing this shit then didn't pay attention, but I am now, so sad to bad and to late. They have had that laptop over three years refuse to look at it, congressional requests to examine documents and the alphabet agencies tell the government oversight to go pound sand........it is done
This post made me sad.
