Seems so.
Two hundred and thirty-one years after Ben Franklin’s famous exchange, America has reached a fork in the road. Down one path, we continue our grand experiment in self-governance and maintain our reputation as the last best hope of mankind. Down the other, we devolve into a banana republic, ruled by a cabal of unelected deep-state bureaucrats accountable to no one but themselves. The best indicator of which way we’ll go? Ousted FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe. Either he gets indicted, or we live in a nation where the well-connected remain wholly insulated from genuine accountability.
The allegations couldn’t be clearer. As the Department of Justice’s Office of the Inspector General’s (OIG) report indicates, McCabe “lacked candor” (he lied) on four occasions when speaking with internal investigators. Thus, the OIG has sent a criminal referral to the U.S. attorney’s office in Washington, DC.

Yes and we always have. In the 2000's a poor little rich girl Named Paris Hilton got caught in Los Vegas with ONE FULL KILO of uncut heroin. A loaded 9MM pistol and 40 thousand dollars in cash. She was arrested and booked that night. The NEXT MORNING the presiding judge of Nevada dismissed all charges with prejudice, gave her back her cash and gun, and APOLIGIZED for detaining her. The heroin disappeared from evidence and the cop who arrested her needed a new job. This is the banana republic you laugh at. If you are of a certain political or economic class or one of there loyal servants the laws that govern the plebs do not apply to you. They never have. We can live with that or go John C. Calhoon (spell?) there is no third way.--Ray
