Happy Sunday, friends. It’s another crazy day in the neighborhood.
Yesterday, along with the blatant attempt to dismantle the First Amendment, came the revelation by MSNBC that Border Czar and head of the ICE gestapo, Tom Homan, was caught on video last year taking $50,000 from FBI agents to help them win contracts in the Trump administration—a flat-out bribe. Unsurprisingly, Kash “Valhalla” Patel shut down the investigation at FBI for lack of “credible evidence.”
This story, it appears, led to a lawless, impeachable post by Donald Trump, in which he demands that Pam Bondi prosecute his political enemies, evidence be damned.
In his eruption, Trump openly admits to firing the U.S. Attorney in the Eastern District of Virginia because, after engaging in multiple politically-motivated investigations, he wouldn’t manufacture charges against NY AG Leticia James or Fed Commissioner Lisa Cook.
Trump’s threat to Pam Bondi’s job is obvious, as is his illegal attempt to force her to prosecute people for openly stated political purposes.
“They’re all guilty as hell… We can’t delay any longer, it’s killing our reputation and credibility. They impeached me twice… JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED, NOW!!!”
As Hillary Clinton tweeted this morning: “Imagine if Richard Nixon had just tweeted out the Watergate scandal rather than putting it on secret tapes. That’s what this is.”
Next week will be a demonstration of whether the United States even pretends to be a constitutional democracy any longer—the Big Stupid Test. Here is one formerly prominent person who failed the Big Stupid Test. This is what it looks like to lose the rule of law—elites begin to treat the words of the leader as superior to the Constitution.
Bribes? “WE DO NOT CARE.”
Unfortunately this is increasingly the attitude of the regime and its followers: “We do not care if they break the law—as long as it satisfies our thirst for blood.”
The question remains, however, if the rest of us will continue to allow Donald Trump to fire comedians, prosecute his enemies, and cover up the crimes of his own administration—right out in the open. Or, will we snap out of it and figure out how to shut this whole thing down?
In a way, I’m glad the Big Stupid Test is here. Let’s get on with it.
