American Thinker has an article up today entitled “Where’s the Reckoning?” and it’s a banger. The writer wonders about a reckoning for the big scandals, like “Russia Russia Russia” but then he launches into a list of what he called “supporting” scandals and holy cow, there are a lot of them. The whole article is worth a read but I quote this list just to refresh your memory. Of course we know about all of them, but seeing them all lined up makes you realize what an enormous task lay ahead if we are ever able to regain a functioning Republic.
Who murdered Seth Rich in what was thought to be a failed robbery where no one was actually robbed? Was he punished for whistleblowing to Wikileaks? We still don’t know.
What emails did Hillary Clinton keep on her bathroom server? Was it yoga lessons or highly classified materials leaked for financial or political gain? We still don’t know because FBI Director Comey chose to look the other way.
Then there is Anthony Weiner’s laptop. What was on it? Allegedly, nine of the twelve people who viewed the contents are now dead. Very Clintonesque, but Anthony was, during the laptop days, married to Huma Abedin, Hillary Clinton’s personal assistant, who recently married George Soros’s son. A tangled web with dead bodies, and no reckoning. And unlikely to happen at this point.
Then there are the shooters. Las Vegas mass killer Stephen Paddock’s motive is “a mystery” to the FBI. Ask any questions, and big media cries “conspiracy theory.” Yet the same FBI found “motive” for hundreds arrested and imprisoned for leisurely strolling the U.S. Capitol grounds on Jan. 6.
But there is no clear motive for a mass shooter or a presidential assassin. Thomas Crooks remains “a mystery.” Of course he does. A 20-year-old with no social media presence sneaks a rifle within shooting range of the former and potential future president while the best protective agency in the world misses it all, worried about standing on a sloped roof.
All the major media networks just happened to be covering Trump’s Butler rally that day. Doug Mills, an award-winning photographer from the NY Times, just happened to be at the rally. And he just happened to bring photographic equipment to capture an incredible photo of a bullet whizzing past Trump’s head. And he just happened to be taking photos at the moment the shot was fired. Was he expecting to photograph an exploding head?
So many coincidences, yet it remains a mystery. A half dozen Secret Service agents were suspended over the day’s events, not a day later but a year later. No answers, little if any accountability, and no reckoning.
Another mystery is Ryan Routh, who was nearly an assassin. How did he almost shoot candidate Trump? The Secret Service failed twice. Would this be acceptable elsewhere?
Then there is the relentless lawfare against Trump and the Biden administration’s effort to imprison a political opponent. Is there any accountability for weaponizing the federal government against a political candidate? Or raiding his Mar-a-Lago home?
What about Peek-a-boo New York Attorney General Letitia James, who is alleged to have committed mortgage fraud, as filmmaker Joel Gilbert nicely outlined? Sen. Adam Schiff is accused of the same. Will justice be served, or will they get a pass because they are Democrats?
And COVID, the origins, management, and censorship or worse directed against anyone challenging the government narrative. What about the vaccines, once portrayed as “safe and effective,” now found to be the opposite? Vaccine mandates, business and school closures, destroying kids and families. Is there any accountability or reckoning?
What about the autopen? And the Biden presidency? Who was really in charge, making decisions, signing executive orders, and pardons? Who knew about Biden’s cognitive impairment and covered it up? [snip]
There are many more instances of government misconduct, much of it illegal and possibly treasonous. But so far, there has been no accountability. Will we ever see a reckoning? Or will it be Bueller… Bueller… Bueller?
Again, the entire article is here.
UPDATE. I just came across this X post which is right on point:
