Guest Post by Kurt Schlichter
I want you to tell me, without bursting into laughter, that I am still supposed to respect our federal law enforcement institutions. I keep hearing about these wonderful keepers of norms and rules and stuff deserve our awe, and then I see the tawdry, self-serving and scummy way they operate, and gee – there’s a disconnect. A big one. If the price of our society is submitting to these corrupt and incompetent people of garbage, well, then I say burn it all down.
That’s the only way to save it: to level it and start over.
Let’s review how our guardians of justice have covered themselves in glory in recent days. And by “glory,” I mean “Scat Francisco sidewalk sauce.”
The scumbag Democrat donors remaining in the Mueller lynch mob decided that Roger Stone, an absolutely harmless gadfly whose real crime was being aligned with Donald Trump and therefore with you, should be sent away for seven to nine years for “crimes” that the Department of Injustice promptly gave a pass on to the loathsome Andrew McCabe. This is the same institution that also gave a pass to Felonia Milhous von Pantsuit, Comey the Looming Doofus, and those fugly FBI sexting twins.
You would not get a pass.
Then, if possible, it got worse as the garbage Stone conviction was revealed to have been obtained with an anti-Trump Democrat activist as the jury foreperson. Think about that – an active partisan on the jury. The judge – wanna guess who appointed her? – refused to dump this partisan off the jury because of course, a Democrat candidate for office could be neutral and how dare you question the integrity of the system harrumph harrumph harrumph.
Please tell me more about rules and norms.
Stone’s lawyers are seeking a new trial, but they won’t get one because there is manifestly a dual-track system of “justice” and there will be a bunch of excuses and reasons and exclamations of “How dare you question the system’s integrity!” and, in the end, this manifest injustice will be okay because railroading political enemies of the establishment is not an aberration. It is an objective.
I could continue about Lt. Gen. Mike Flynn and that disgraceful persecution, and others, but this is a column and not a book.
Now, in a system where the kind of integrity our garbage federal law enforcement apparatus likes to pretend it possesses actually existed, Roger Stone’s lawyers would have arrived at federal court, new trial motion in hand, only to find the outraged prosecutors already there demanding – demanding – that the court vacate this fatally flawed conviction on their own motion. See, because the goal of the Department of Justice is justice, and…and…and…HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Sometimes I crack myself up. I’m hilarious.
I like Bill Barr. I think he wants to do the right thing. But he needs to spare us the clichés about the hard-working and honest DOJ staff because that’s not what we see. I trust Barr, but I trust my eyes more, and all I see issuing from his Department is a flow of raw sewage. And don’t tell me “But they convicted Avenatti!” because Avenatti was not a friend to the establishment. He was a threat, an uppity outsider who smarmed his way into position to potentially cut in the line for power. Yeah, the Democrats were totally broken up for him to be taken out.
I’d have fired the Mueller hind-sniffs who tried to set-up the president by recommending the seven-to-nine year stretch. Alternatively, I’d fire them just for that recommendation. It was absolute Schiff when rapists, thugs, and other Democrat constituents regularly coast out of court with much less time. Wait, I thought we had a non-violent convict incarceration crisis, but I guess that doesn’t apply to political crimes, the most serious crimes of all apparently. No, they won’t get fired. They will keep on ruining lives.
They have failed to meet the minimum standards for integrity. You owe them nothing, not obedience, respect, or assistance. Don’t give them any.
You have no reason to cooperate with any of them if they come asking you questions. You’re a fool to do so – they seek to harm you, so you should protect yourself. Stone is where he is because he foolishly chose to testify.
When a federal law enforcement asks you anything, repeat after me:
“I invoke my right to remain silent. Please stop asking me questions. I want my lawyer.”
“Uh, I was just asking you if there’s a coffee shop around here.”
“I invoke my right to remain silent. Please stop asking me questions. I want my lawyer.”
And when you are in court on a jury, and the prosecutor attempts to stand in the golden glow of the United States of America, remember what the prosecutors did to innocent people for daring to dissent and give that lawyer no credit or benefit of the doubt. Listen closely and carefully to the accused. There was a time when an accused claiming he was framed by the feds could be laughed off; now, you should consider it. Ask Ted Stevens – oh wait, he died after a corrupt conviction. Do not hesitate to acquit, because the Department of Justice has proven itself corrupt and dishonest.
“But, but, but, many hard-working, honest blah blah blah blah….”
Save it.
Who was the guy who went to jail for scores of wrongful convictions thanks to the FBI crime lab scandal?
Who is the guy who went to jail for lying about leaking stuff to hurt the Trump administration?
Who is the guy (or Chardonnay-swilling, cankle-having gal) who went to jail for using classified materials for his/her own personal agendas?
Nobody.
Nobody did because the law is not a neutral set of rules equally applicable to all but a weapon used by politicized bureaucrats to neutralize opponents.
You took your reputation and you used it as Charmin because you wanted your pals to win an election. And now we all know the truth and we know what you are.
You are not the enforcers of justice. You are the enforcers of a two-track system that excuses your pals and jams up your opponents.
So, what do we do? I mean, besides refuse to pretend any longer that the feds are Efrem Zimbalist, Jr., instead of seedy little crustaceans like Andrew McCabe or the hard-five sext twins?
Let Barr do his thing. Let Durham do his. I’m not going to Lucy and the football myself into believing that either one is definitely going to serve up the justice upon the Deep State derps that is the minimal requirement for beginning to rebuild the trust in federal law enforcement these hacks flushed away, but who knows? They might do something. In the meantime, we simply need to treat federal law enforcement as what it is: deeply corrupt and utterly untrustworthy.
The other thing is that the president needs to pardon Roger Stone, Mike Flynn, and the others caught up in the scummy attempt to criminalize dissent. And he should commute Paul Manafort’s sentence to time served. Time to use our power to do justice for those who are victims of injustice.
See, the stakes are high. A dual-track justice system is unsustainable in a free country. True, the Democrats behind these injustices don’t want a free country at all, but we do. If we tolerate these injustices, we won’t have one, and the bad guys are not going to like what happens next. This is how they got Trump. They have only gotten worse. Okay, well, more of this is how you get Caesar.
And as a result of this, I’d like to announce that my latest conservative thriller, Collapse, along with the other entries in the best-selling series, People’s Republic, Indian Country, and Wildfire, will now be moving to the non-fiction section. They talk about America breaking in two as liberal obnoxiousness becomes unbearable and, well, just read the news. Get them all, and also check out my Townhall VIP podcast, “Unredacted” every Monday!

Burn it down is fine, but pick the correct target – the entirety of the Fed Gov.
SAO- Just as soon as the 445 DD chess game is over, El Trump will burn it all down and save us/The USA!USA!USA!….Oh Ye of little faith.
You forgot the /sarc in your comment because you can’t be serious.
Trump is owned by the deep state. He’s as useless as teats on a bull. Nothing will happen to the well connected instigators of all the hoaxes they’ve perpetrated.
Trump is president in name only. The Congress is there to pretend to legislate when their real job is graft and corruption. The Supreme Court rules everything is legal that the deep state wants. They are there for show.
The military, CIA, NSA, FBI, etc ARE the real gov’t and they don’t stand for election. How else could the military never pass an audit and can’t account for $23 Trillion. They get away with this because they are at the top of the hierarchy.
AND DON’T START OVER!!!!
I wish I could give you 100 thumbs up.
I have this great idea for a TBP parody video.
Tell EC it really is a great idea. I’m gonna show you one image and if you don’t get offended, I’m moving forward and naming all the muppets in the video as I like! (Yoji is obviously Elmo)
Muppets singing Bohemian Rhapsody.
LLPOH is obviously Oscar the grump down under.
Avalon is Top Chick. I think M C is a good balance to your clucking hen trio.
Uncola’s character sang the “because I’m easy come, easy go, little high, little low” and as soon as he sang it, I paused it and said… that is the jfish.
Admit it COYOTE… it is a great idea.
We don’t need no water…let that motherf#cker burn.
This infiltration of our govt by 90% leftists has been on-going for decades. We are now seeing the fruition. It wasn’t so obvious when Bush II was prez because he ultimately was also part of The Club.
Now that an outsider is in office we see all of the worms at the heart of our system.
The nation has been on house arrest since 1871 and people are getting uptight over a little political theater?
All roads of treachery and ruin lead back to the Democrat party. The party of the mindless midnight mob. Dissolve it before it dissolves you.
Come on Kurt, you “trust” Bill Barr? Trust him to DO what? Oh it is possible that he is, deep inside that cuddly, rotund exterior, a great believer in liberty, equal justice before the law, the limits on the government found in the Constitution and all the rest, but what does he actually DO? Protects the same predatory Deep Staters that everyone else does. It is what he does, it is what he is. Everyone in DC must be assumed to be, at the root, a defender of the Deep State system, or they would not be there in the first place. Oh, they may have stylistic differences, but in the end, they will let Lois Lerner walk and take Stone to prison every time.
Burn it down. Burn them all. God will recognize his own. Don’t stop with the DoJ, either. A stop by the Kennedy School of Government isn’t a bad idea either, if getting rid of the nursery is part of the solution.
Damn that sounds ugly, but I mean every word of it.
It’s not ugly BR, it is what happens when we let an infection turn into gangrene.
Have rope. Will travel.
90% of government is corrupt and the other 10% is suspected to be.
any actually attempting to commit public service are a rounding error, from 100%.
Trump can’t keep appointing swamp creatures to key positions then act surprised when the swamp critter does what swamp critters do, because at some point the remainder of his loyal followers are going to finally figure out it’s all a con. (or maybe I’m just being optimistic?)
Nobody will do any time.
Doing time is for the Dirt People like you and me. There is no law.
Maybe duplication here but I posted this link on Kuntzler’s article:
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2020/02/16/doj-corruption-the-fork-in-the-road-few-noticed-what-bill-barr-needs-to-explain-to-everyone/
I have and have had strong suspicions that Barr is not the guy to do the job-to my mind, he has been a deep state fixer since the time he worked for ray gun’s cia director, casey, as a fixer.
Agree, that the DOJ, the FBI, need to be completely burned down-but, it will never happen, maybe valet car parkers, cleaning personnel, justice is not existent in the dc cess pool of rot and corruption.
“I like Bill Barr. I think he wants to do the right thing.”
Kurt Shitter is a retard. AG Barr is a Deep State swamp creature. I guess Kurt hasn’t figured out yet that the DOJ is part of the executive branch of government, which is headed by the Orange Clown that he worships.
If the feds released every single criminal in federal prison, and indefinitely imprisoned every member of the DOJ, prosecutors, BOP, FBI, all of them, in their stead, that would accomplish a net increase in justice served.
That might be an injustice to perhaps half a dozen, maybe as many as 10 good men in the bunch, out of 113,000. Mostly because they’re brand new hires and haven’t yet become complicit.
It’s all moot because the corrupt FBI and DOJ roll on. Somewhere along the way Americans have completely lost control of these departments. We can talk about fixing them…or talk about abolishing them…or redesigning them…but, in reality, they aren’t going to stand for that. Any of it. The Democrats have annexed them as private security forces. Is this as obvious to you as it is to me? Or are you still waiting for Barr to “decline to prosecute” the NEXT insurrectionist?
For me now the only answer is that any time I am called for jury duty,any & all evidence presented by the feds of any kind, will be immediately refused and not used in my decision, this will be applied in ANY case that has ANY ties to the feds, all the way down to a parking ticket.Look up Jury nullification we are the final arbitrators of the law!!
As long as you can manage to be seated on that jury. That is not so easy, as they have access to ALL of your history, even if none of it comes up during voir dire. Its not as though they are FORCED to take the first 12 that show up. But I do agree that jury nullification is an important, non-violent part of rolling back the corruption.
WACO, Ruby Ridge, So many many places ……
The FBI did an irresponsible job of investigating the Oklahoma City Bomb that was born in Sanilac county, Michigan, and the Militia Culture permeating it. There were TWO militias up there. (1) The CITIZENS Militia, with 85 year old Hattie Farley, which OPPOSED the Sheriff and the “Good Old Boys” and (2) The violence prone, RACIST, PRO-sheriff “element”.
Sanilac county Sheriff Virgil Strickler was BFF and business partner with David Rydel, “commandant” of the “united States Theatre Command” militia which is named in the FBI “Project Megiddo” report for Y2K. Strickler let the Rydel militia use the department’s shooting range. LOUD explosions on the Nichols farm were repeatedly reported to Strickler, So what do you know! when the Feds raided the farm the evidence was cleaned up. James Nichols stated in his speech at the Dearborn Centennial Library that the FIRST person he wanted to talk to was Strickler, which he did BEFORE talking to the FEDS. James was welcomed home as a HERO when he was released from Federal custody. All described in Nichols’ book “Freedom’s End”
The “support network” for the bomb extended to the very top of Sanilac County. Worth Township in Sanilac county, had a Supervisor, James Payne, who flew Confederate flags on his property for decades. He drove around with a Confederate license plate, and had a Black Lawn Jockey holding a Confederate flag standing right at his door. County Officials such as Sheriff Strickler REGULARLY passed that lawn jockey and saw the flags as they entered Payne’s home to socialize.
They all sound like members of the .gov to me. They often work through local governments/law enforcement.
this article from breitbart fits well here–
alan dershowitz said in an interview that obama ordered an investigation of someone based upon a request from george soros,and he claims to have written proof–

I saw that. I wish he and Giuliani would stop the tease and just strip it bare.
Well said, brother. I have been saying pretty much the same thing for years. It’s all broken…and all corrupt. Those who praise the FBI rank and file don’t know what the hell they’re talking about. The two agents I met were as crooked as a dog’s hind leg. Your advice on keeping your mouth shut is also something I have been saying for years…and roundly chastised for it. Don’t say a goddam word….not one. Don’t comment on the weather….don’t give the time of day….say absolutely nothing and walk away. Witness a bank robbery and the FBI asks you about it? Walk. Justice? Nope….fresh out.
