Lord Acton Was Right!

Lord Acton is famous for his statement, "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely."

Depending on your source of the day's news you may be aware of what's been developing in the "swamp" regarding the whole recent presidential campaign and first year of Pres. Trump's administration and the investigation into the supposed Trump/Russian Collusion. After an entire year of investigation nothing - not one bit of irrefutable evidence - has surfaced to give the collusion narrative an ounce of credibility. Anyone who claims that Mannifort's or Flynn's indictments were proof of it are sadly uninformed as to the facts regarding the reasons for why they've made the news.

Now that it's obvious that there is nothing to be brought against Pres. Trump, the liberal leftists in the mainstream media have switched their focus to claims of either obstruction of justice or the president's sanity. With the new revelations from a pair of reporters - John Solomon of The Hill and Sarah Carter of Circa News - exposing the incredibly one sided (anti-Trump bias) circumstances of the Muller investigation team members being Clinton donors and advocates, Rosentein, Strzok, Weissman, Bruce Orr, Jeannie Rhee, the Podesta brothers, et al, (a very coordinated group of DNC operatives and lawyers who previously worked for the Clinton Foundation and Obama's national security aide Ben Rhodes) it's becoming apparent that the Obama Administration used its remaining days to set up a stable of bureaucrats prepared to do their best to sabotage the Trump Campaign and, after their shock at losing the election, went into a "Resist" mode to attempt a "silent coup" to get Trump ousted from the Oval Office with the collusion of the mainstream media at ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN and MSNBC.

As facts come forth on a daily basis exposing the blatant "fix" by former FBI Director James Comey to exonerate S.O.S. Hillary Clinton during the summer of the presidential campaign even before he had her interviewed in the investigation, and who it was that actually edited the words "gross negligence" to "extremely careless", it's becoming obvious to House investigative committee members that the rule of law has been ignored and a Constitutional crisis is being discovered. The pantheon of federal agencies from the Obama Administration have a multitude of remaining Obama/Clinton devotees (Why Trump didn't purge them from D.C. I'll never understand.) who are being exposed as having arranged for letting Hillary Clinton off the hook by not being sworn in during her interview with the F.B.I., but no audio or video record was made of that interview for future reference regarding her email server scandal. Yet, Gen. Flynn's interview by Muller's investigators were careful to record his testimony on his work as a liaison with a Russian diplomat, then use it against him later to implicate him on lying to the F.B.I. for an indictment. Clearly a politically expedient double-standard!

Bureaucrats in some agencies are deliberately ignoring requests from Congressional committees to produce documents for investigations, or to provide their Trump appointed director of a particular agency to provide information to them for the purpose of acquiring sufficient information in order to do their job as director; simply because they're so convinced that Hillary should have won they won't believe or accept Trump as President.

In my view, this is clear evidence that the former president implemented measures within his second presidential term to move our governmental organization as far away from its adherence to the rule of law and remove justice's blindfold so that his personal philosophy of social justice and identity politics could advance further under a Pres. Clinton administration. Whether our system of checks and balances, laws and powers within the wide array of administrative departments can weather this political crisis will be the biggest test our nation's form of governance has ever encountered.
