Clearly, there is no joy in Mudville. The SJWs in the various agencies have been very, very naughty and their activities are now coming to light such that a whole lot of people are in deep trouble. It wasn’t supposed to be this way.
What we have come to know is that during the years of the Obama administration, the cancer of treasonous leftism was spread far and wide in the federal bureaucracy such that no part of the government is now free of corruption. Some agencies have more and some less, but none seem to be immune from the pestilence of Marxist influence and political correctness that destroys everything that it touches. Michael Goodwin writes at The New York Post:
During the financial crisis, the federal government bailed out banks it declared “too big to fail.” Fearing that their bankruptcy might trigger economic Armageddon, the feds propped them up with taxpayer cash.
Something similar is happening now at the FBI, with the Washington wagons circling the agency to protect it from charges of corruption. This time, the appropriate tag line is “too big to believe.”
Yet each day brings credible reports suggesting there is a massive scandal involving the top ranks of America’s premier law enforcement agency. The reports, which feature talk among agents of a “secret society” and suddenly missing text messages, point to the existence both of a cabal dedicated to defeating Donald Trump in 2016 and of a plan to let Hillary Clinton skate free in the classified email probe.
If either one is true — and I believe both probably are — it would mean FBI leaders betrayed the nation by abusing their powers in a bid to pick the president.
More support for this view involves the FBI’s use of the Russian dossier on Trump that was paid for by the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee. It is almost certain that the FBI used the dossier to get FISA court warrants to spy on Trump associates, meaning it used the opposition research of the party in power to convince a court to let it spy on the candidate of the other party — likely without telling the court of the dossier’s political link.
Even worse, there is growing reason to believe that someone in President Barak Obama’s administration turned over classified information about Trump to the Clinton campaign. An FBI informant has apparently informed Congress that a secret society at the FBI was holding secret meetings off-site after the election of Donald Trump. On Special Report with Bret Baier Tuesday evening, Senator Ron Johnson (R-Wisc.) called it “corruption of the highest levels of the FBI.”
If you don’t already have doubts about the general intelligence of these people, you should seriously reconsider your viewpoint. Despite their power and position, their wealth and their ivy league degrees, the fact remains that most of them are rather pedestrian in their thinking. In fact, one could argue that an ivy league degree is a serious disadvantage given that schools today are far more interested in the task of liberal/leftist indoctrination than in teaching students how to actually think rationally and without bias, and thereby to make accurate assessments about how current events and plans may play out in the future. Wishful thinking is no substitute for real knowledge and hard practical analysis.
Political correctness and the arrogance that goes along with it comes naturally to these people. Combine that with what AC says is a deficient amygdala and you get people who are so certain of their moral righteousness and mental superiority that they simply do not think that they could ever be caught red-handed or pay a price for their actions. As this unfolds, I believe that we will see many of these individuals learn a very different and hard lesson otherwise. And they will deserve every bit of it.
