Where’s the FBI S.W.A.T. Team When You Need Them?

The New York Sun has an important summary for the record by Conrad Black:

<<For more than two years, the United States and the world have had two competing narratives: that an elected president of the United States was a Russian agent whom the Kremlin helped elect; and its rival narrative that senior officials of the Justice Department, FBI, CIA, and other national intelligence organizations had repeatedly lied under oath, misinformed federal officials, and meddled in partisan political matters illegally and unconstitutionally and had effectively tried to influence the outcome of a presidential election, and then undo its result by falsely propagating the first narrative. It is now obvious and indisputable that the second narrative is the correct one.

The authors, accomplices, and dupes of this attempted overthrow of constitutional government are now well along in reciting their misconduct without embarrassment or remorse because — in fired FBI Director James Comey’s formulation — a “higher duty” than the oath they swore to uphold the Constitution compelled them. Or — in fired FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe’s words — “the threat” was too great. Nevermind that the nature of “the threat” was that the people might elect someone he and Mr. Comey disapproved of as president, and that that person might actually serve his term, as elected.>>

Read the full text. The is the News Story of the Century thus far, and the news media are barely reporting it. That has to tell you something important about how dangerous a time this republic has been living. The Washington Post says “Democracy Dies in Darkness.” What they don’t say is they are the closest, fiercest allies of that darkness. Why I love the antique banner of The New York Sun.

The card after the Tarot’s No. XXIX is No. XX, the Day of Judgment. Let’s hope we see that one next.
