Hillary Clinton的前首席策士Mark Penn的看法跟我们的一样,deep state和HRC的竞
选团队构陷Donald Trump:
Stopping Robert Mueller to protect us all
Mark Penn
The “deep state” is in a deep state of desperation. With little time left
before the Justice Department inspector general’s report becomes public,
and with special counsel Robert Mueller having failed to bring down Donald
Trump after a year of trying, they know a reckoning is coming.
At this point, there is little doubt that the highest echelons of the FBI
and the Justice Department broke their own rules to end the Hillary Clinton
“matter,” but we can expect the inspector general to document what was
done or, more pointedly, not done. It is hard to see how a yearlong
investigation of this won’t come down hard on former FBI Director James
Comey and perhaps even former Attorney General Loretta Lynch, who definitely
wasn’t playing mahjong in a secret “no aides allowed” meeting with
former President Clinton on a Phoenix airport tarmac.
With this report on the way and congressional investigators beginning to
zero in on the lack of hard, verified evidence for starting the Trump probe,
current and former intelligence and Justice Department officials are
dumping everything they can think of to save their reputations.
But it is backfiring. They started by telling the story of Alexander Downer,
an Australian diplomat, as having remembered a bar conversation with George
Papadopoulos, a foreign policy adviser to the Trump campaign. But how did
the FBI know they should talk to him? That’s left out of their narrative.
Downer’s signature appears on a $25 million contribution to the Clinton
Foundation. You don’t need much imagination to figure that he was close
with Clinton Foundation operatives who relayed information to the State
Department, which then called the FBI to complete the loop. This wasn’t
intelligence. It was likely opposition research from the start.
In no way would a fourth-hand report from a Maltese professor justify
wholesale targeting of four or five members of the Trump campaign. It took
Christopher Steele, with his funding concealed through false campaign
filings, to be incredibly successful at creating a vast echo chamber around
his unverified, fanciful dossier, bouncing it back and forth between the
press and the FBI so it appeared that there were multiple sources all coming
to the same conclusion.
Time and time again, investigators came up empty. Even several sting
operations with an FBI spy we just learned about failed to produce a
DeLorean-like video with cash on the table. But rather than close the probe,
the deep state just expanded it. All they had were a few isolated contacts
with Russians and absolutely nothing related to Trump himself, yet they
pressed forward. Egged on by Steele, they simply believed Trump and his team
must be dirty. They just needed to dig deep enough.
Perhaps the murkiest event in the timeline is Deputy Attorney General Rod
Rosenstein’s appointment of a special counsel after he personally
recommended Comey’s firing in blistering terms. With Attorney General Jeff
Sessions shoved out of the way, Rosenstein and Mueller then ignored their
own conflicts and took charge anyway. Rosenstein is a fact witness, and
Mueller is a friend of Comey, disqualifying them both.
Flush with 16 prosecutors, including a former lawyer for the Clinton
Foundation, and an undisclosed budget, the Mueller investigation has been a
scorched-earth effort to investigate the entirety of the Trump campaign,
Trump business dealings, the entire administration and now, if it was not
Russia, maybe it’s some other country.
The president’s earlier legal team was naive in believing that, when
Mueller found nothing, he would just end it. Instead, the less investigators
found, the more determined and expansive they became. This president and
his team now are on a better road to put appropriate limits on all this.
This process must now be stopped, preferably long before a vote in the
Senate. Rather than a fair, limited and impartial investigation, the Mueller
investigation became a partisan, open-ended inquisition that, by its
precedent, is a threat to all those who ever want to participate in a
national campaign or an administration again.
Its prosecutions have all been principally to pressure witnesses with
unrelated charges and threats to family, or just for a public relations
effect, like the indictment of Russian internet trolls. Unfortunately, just
like the Doomsday Machine in “Dr. Strangelove” that was supposed to save
the world but instead destroys it, the Mueller investigation comes with no
“off” switch: You can’t fire Mueller. He needs to be defeated, like Ken
Starr, the independent counsel who investigated President Clinton.
Finding the “off” switch will not be easy. Step one here is for the
Justice Department inspector general report to knock Comey out of the
witness box. Next, the full origins of the investigation and its lack of any
real intelligence needs to come out in the open. The attorney general,
himself the target of a secret investigation, needs to take back his Justice
Department. Sessions needs to act quickly, along with U.S. Attorney John
Huber, appointed to conduct an internal review of the FBI, on the Comey and
McCabe matters following the inspector general report, and then announce an
expanded probe into other abuses of power.
The president’s lawyers need to extend their new aggressiveness from words
to action, filing complaints with the Justice Department’s Office of
Professional Responsibility on the failure of Mueller and Rosenstein to
recuse themselves and going into court to question the tactics of the
special counsel, from selective prosecutions on unrelated matters, illegally
seizing Government Services Administration emails, covering up the phone
texts of FBI officials Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, and operating without a
scope approved by the attorney general. (The regulations call for the
attorney general to recuse himself from the investigation but appear to
still leave him responsible for the scope.)
The final stopper may be the president himself, offering two hours of
testimony, perhaps even televised live from the White House. The last time
America became obsessed with Russian influence in America was the McCarthy
hearings in the 1950s. Those ended only when Sen. Joseph McCarthy (R-Wis.)
attacked an associate of the U.S. Army counsel, Joseph Welch, and Welch
famously responded: “Sir, have you no decency?” In this case, virtually
every associate and family member of the president has been subject to
smears conveniently leaked to the press.
Stopping Mueller isn’t about one president or one party. It’s about all
presidents and all parties. It’s about cleaning out and reforming the deep
state so that our intelligence operations are never used against opposing
campaigns without the firmest of evidence. It’s about letting people work
for campaigns and administrations without needing legal defense funds. It’s
about relying on our elections to decide our differences.

同意。
不管喜不喜欢承不承认,法律在黑人面前顾虑重重束手束脚。
黑人已经属于美国社会事实上的高种姓。
