FBI: American Gestapo

FBI: American Gestapo

Any government agency with law enforcement and surveillance
authority that uses those powers for political purposes is the
definition of a secret police, no better than the Nazi Gestapo
or the Soviet KGB.

There is indeed probable cause to conclude, meaning indictable
offenses, that employees of the Department of Justice and/or the
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), sympathetic to the Democrat
Party, used the power of their offices and with the assistance
of foreign nationals to influence the 2016 election in favor of
Hillary Clinton, first to exonerate her and then obtain information
to prevent the election of Donald Trump or to provide a basis for
his impeachment should he win.

It is also abundantly clear from the Congressional investigations
involving the Department of Justice and the FBI that those
institutions of government are protecting themselves at the
expense of transparency and accountability to the American
people.

In other words, the government employees involved consider the
survival of the Deep State more important than the survival of the
Constitution.

That is the definition of tyranny.

Here is a summary of the apparent sequence of events based
on the revelations so far.

There may be more damning evidence yet to be disclosed.

- The Democrats hired Fusion GPS to find dirt on Donald Trump.

- Fusion GPS hired former British MI6 agent in Moscow, Christopher
Steele, to canvass and very likely pay his Russian contacts, some of
whom may be present or former members of Russian intelligence,
for negative information about Trump.

- Steele creates the "Trump dossier" and distributes it either
directly or indirectly to media outlets and to politicians like
Senator John McCain (R-AZ).

- The FBI obtains the "Trump dossier," but inexplicably
or perhaps intentionally does not check the veracity of
any of Steele's assertions.

- The FBI uses the "Trump dossier" to apply to the Foreign
Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) court to obtain warrantless
authorization to conduct surveillance on Trump and his associates.

- It now appears that Christopher Steele might have been, at some
point, on the FBI payroll, and, by extension, the Russians.

The use of an un-vetted document from dubious Russian sources
as a basis for unwarranted surveillance of American citizens,
ultimately for political purposes, renders the entire Mueller
investigation a farce and could provide exculpatory evidence
to vacate the guilty plea of former National Security Advisor
Michael Flynn.

It is a verdict many believe was based on improperly-obtained
information as part of an overall effort by politically-motivated
federal employees to manipulate the results of the 2016 election.

The conditions that led to the election of Donald Trump
as President remain.

They bear repeating.

The federal government and the media are, as institutions,
hopelessly corrupt and, although we have elections, we no
longer have representative government.

There is a Cold Civil War underway in the United States
to determine who should control the federal government.

It is not a contest between the Democrat and Republican policies,
but a battle between the entrenched power of the bipartisan
political establishment, the Deep State, versus the freedom and
well-being of the American people.

It is a conflict between those who want to adhere to the
Constitution and the rule of law and a ruling elite, who
wish to continue the practices of political expediency
and crony capitalism for the purposes of personal power
and profit.

Americans now believe that we are no longer citizens of a republic,
but subjects of an elected aristocracy, composed of a self-absorbed
and self-perpetuating permanent political class, which serves its
own interests and those of its international financiers, not those
of the American people.

Three years before the start of the American Civil War, Abraham
Lincoln said a government cannot endure permanently half slave
and half free - that a house divided against itself cannot stand.

Likewise, a government separated from the people cannot stand.

The American Revolution, a war to free ourselves from foreign
tyranny, lasted eight years.

The Second American Revolution, a battle to root out the
corruption and despotism of the Deep State will take longer,
but equally necessary.
