Scot free: Ex-FBI official McCabe won't face Justice Department charges

How does this NOT concern you? You have law enforcers breaking the law and with impunity for it. Ignore Trump's existence for a minute, this means there's a power imbalance between us, the citizen and the "enforcers" of the State. The very state of affairs you claimed Trump would bring about.

In reality, Trump didn't bring it about but he did lift the veil to show to us all. It's not the Presidency, and not even Congress. It's the "Official Channels." And we're not equal citizens, certain citizens get deferential treatment and are allowed to break the law as long as they are called its "officers".

As I wrote in my post yesterday, this state of affairs is unacceptable and all attempts to justify it fail the logical/philosophical and even lawful test.

 

Right you prefer the presidents buddies be the ones getting special treatment.

 

So you think McCabe should walk free? You think Comey should walk free? You think Flynn should go to jail?

 

No, I prefer equal administration of justice. If you're going to prosecute one guy for lying, you have to prosecute the other guy for lying. If you're not going to prosecute one person for lying, there's no reason to prosecute the other person for lying.

Either we have a one-tier justice system, or a two-tier justice system. As long as you view this with "Trump's buddies", you won't be interested in the fight for fairness and equity under the law.

 

What's the distinction?

 

Lack of response noted.

 

One is blatant untruth
And one sounds more like omitting details that weren’t asked but could be relevant.

 

The double standard is right out in the open now days. If bill Clinton was a Republican he'd still be in jail for his crimes.

 

2 guys not charged vs one guy who admits his crimes? Yah that’s an easy call.

 

They are both not being truthful. The truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Ask Flynn.

 

Flynn lied, McCabe just lacked candor.

 

You got it right now !

Macabe and Comey investigated and found unable to indict or charge.

Flynn plead Guilty to charges and Judge asked Flynn if he was under any pressure or duress to do so at each charge and Flynn said it was of his own accord

 

McCabe lied, Flynn got entrapped and they altered his 302 after the agents interviewing him said he wasn't lying.

 

This post exemplifies how much damage dirty Donny has done to the country. How corrosive his remarks about the DOJ / FBI / CIA are.

He has told you that there is a “deep state” within the DOJ / FBI that looks out for themselves and goes after outsiders. You see a bunch of people in his orbit charged and sent to prison, and your political opposition charged, and you think that is proof of a two-tier system.
You know what? It could be. That is what would happen in a deep-state two-tier system. But Bonespurs has been in office for THREE YEARS and so far, his AG has not rooted out this conspiracy.
Which rather suggests that this two-tier system doesn’t exist.

The other, more reasonable and logical explanation is that the DOJ acts completely independently of politics and does things by the book. So if someone gets charged it’s because the DOJ thinks they can secure a conviction. And if they aren’t charged, it’s because the DOJ doesn’t think they broke the law.

Open your mind to that possibility and everything will fall into place without resorting to conspiracy theories.

 

There is no "conspiracy theory" here. It's a blatant misapplication of the law. This isn't rocket science, they should BOTH go to jail if it's a crime. If it's not a "crime" for a law enforcement officer, it's not a crime for ANY of us either. It's your desire to turn it into a conspiracy theory. It's not a conspiracy theory. It's a demand, an obligation for equal application of the law.

Refusal to do so, means that yes, there's a two tier justice system.

 

McCabe May never be prosecuted, but he will be forever fired from the FBI.

 

LMAO. That's a way to make this feel better.

 

the agents that interviewed Flynn said he didn't. McCabe outright did.

 

No, that’s just a response to the Trump will forever be impeached nonsense.

I only care what Trump can do for America.
I could care less about his legacy.

 

No they didnt. They didn’t say he wasn’t lying and didn’t alter his 302s. The judge already ruled on that.

 

No They didn’t. Need me to quote the DOJ and the judge for you again

 

Once Dirty Don and his mob are ousted ........then investigated , indicted and convicted

Hopefully McCabe will rejoin the FBI and continue to Protect America.

 

They even have their own title - The Flynn Tapes

Why was McCabe fired? He's been disgraced, only a garbage network like CNN will have him.

 

This brings me back to what Trump initially said: Why'd Flynn lie or feel the need to lie? Hell, let me take it one step further: Why is the FBI interviewing the national security advisor to the United States?(IMO, all Flynn should've said was a "need not to know".) The FBI's not a part of the executive branch, or the west wing. It has nothing to do with administrative policy. And in any event, telling the Russians not to retaliate is in OUR national security interests.
