Legal and Judicial Rot

It's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
--Buffalo Springfield

If one believes in divine providence, then one way to make sense of the improbable election of Donald Trump, a Washington outsider and renegade, to the office of President of the United States was that it was supposed to wake people up to the corruption of the federal government that has been robbing people of their liberty--a God-given gift--while they sleep.

The desperate pursuit of Trump by the deep state and its media lackeys via the 'Russian collusion' folly provides no better example of the rot that impairs our legal and judicial system. People are able to view tactics by government agents, lawyers, and even judges that, if you or I sought to do them, would land us in jail for a long time. Lies, blackmail, selective investigation, use of government deep pockets (read taxpayer funds) to threaten people with financial ruin. Freedom can be snatched with a blink of an eye.

This rot is being exposed before our eyes. We are being urged to open them and see.
