(11,767 posts)We have always had separate rules for the powerful and the wealthy in this country. Since the beginning. Since Jefferson Davis got 2 years in prison for the murder of over 350,000 Americans during the Civil War. Since Prescott Bush and his friends continued to do business with the Nazis during World War II. Since Nixon got away with scuttling the Vietnam Peace Talks to be Humphrey, since Watergate. Sure he resigned in disgrace, but what was ever done? Since Reagan and his people got away with going behind Carter's back to keep the hostages in Iran, then sold them weapons illegally, THEN gave weapons (again, illegally) to the Contras. Since Bush Jr. lied to Congress about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq...
Wealthy people, and people with connections have always had a better chance of getting away with murder, than regular people have of getting away with not paying a parking ticket.

PatrickforB
(15,383 posts)and has laid out much of the hidden truth about shareholder primacy capitalism.
If you actually look into Chomsky's role, he questioned the veracity of the book, Murder of a Gentle Land, because he felt that the book a) ignored the US role in creating the political situation that allowed the rise of the Khmer Rouge, and b) the tenor of the book was part of "a campaign to reconstruct the history of these years so as to place the role of the United States in a more favorable light."
Here is what Chomsky actually wrote: "When they speak of 'the murder of a gentle land,' they are not referring to B-52 attacks on villages or the systematic bombing and murderous ground sweeps by American troops or forces organized and supplied by the United States, in a land that had been largely removed from the conflict prior to the American attack. We do not pretend to know where the truth lies amidst these sharply conflicting assessments; rather, we again want to emphasize some crucial points. What filters through to the American public is a seriously distorted version of the evidence available, emphasizing alleged Khmer Rouge atrocities and downplaying or ignoring the crucial U.S. role, direct and indirect, in the torment that Cambodia has suffered."
Chomsky wrote this in 1977, three years after our disastrous defeat in Vietnam. You'll recall that it was Tricky Dicky that inserted troops in Cambodia and okayed the bombing. This too was a genocidal atrocity, but hey, we're Americans, you know.
That said, I have seen the pictures of the mountains of skulls 'built' from murdered victims of Pol Pot and his Khmer Rouge, so genocide is genocide. I'm not disagreeing. I'm just saying Chomsky is making a good point that a certain book seems to have been written as an apologetic for US involvement, and watered down our acts against the Cambodian people.
You know, we live in an age where the 'news' is corporate owned, and very much purveys the doctrine of American exceptionalism. Why? Because we have engaged in imperialism, and this republic itself is built on slavery, conquest and genocide. Chomsky and Zinn, as well as others like Naomi Klein, have tried to counter this 'group think' with some truth.
After looking into this, I think Chomsky was not denying that genocide happened in Cambodia. He just was taking issue with a book he considered an apology for US perfidy during the Vietnam era.It is not surprising that Chomsky got into a 'pissing contest' with these 'American exceptionalist' authors.
Bottom line, the powers that be in this culture often twist history to put the US in a good light. Read up on the CIA's involvement in Central and South American countries on behalf of our 'business interests.' Then consider the doctrine of Liberation Theology, which was a developed by Dominican priest Gustavo Guitierrez, and holds that sin is not only an individual thing, but that economic systems (capitalism) and governments can themselves be 'in sin,' i.e. evil systems. These evil systems victimize people by exploiting workers, and robbing public treasuries to line the pockets of billionaires and corporations.
I bring this up because you can see a similar phenomenon with 'academic' books written in the US on Liberation Theology, which dismiss the whole thing as being communist. Many times we see US academics and senior media people conflating socialism with the totalitarian dictatorships of the Soviet Union, Maoist China and Cambodia. And indeed, these dictatorships committed genocide on their peoples. Millions died in the old USSR and China during the five year plans.
But Chomsky? He disagreed with some guy who wrote a book that left out our role in creating the Khmer Rouge. As to Putin, I'm not sure what he said or did not say. But to dismiss a distinguished 93-year-old guy who has written dozens of books over a decades long career because he said something you disagree with results in me taking issue with your assertion.

Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
The darkness drops again; but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?

He graduated at age 15, the youngest to do so at that institution.
He entered Yale Law School, from which he received a Juris Doctor in 2009. He later passed the New York State Bar examination. Selected as a Rhodes Scholar, Farrow earned a Doctor of Philosophy in political science from the University of Oxford, where he was a student of Magdalen College.

(58,785 posts)that Democratic President Biden heads the executive branch the DoJ is part of, right? That though our principles don't allow Biden to actively interfere in DoJ cases Biden could certainly remove Garland if he believed he wasn't performing as they agreed when he was interviewed. But hasn't. Right?
Since you've been very concerned with this subject for a long time now, I assume you know that this "corrupt Biden's DoJ and Biden's AG" meme is widely spread by anti-democracy elements AND anti-Democratic elements, enemies both domestic and foreign, including foreign states like Russia, China, Iran, NKorea, etc.
Does everyone else, though? Here on DU we don't mention that President Biden's the man in charge, but maybe that should not fool anyone into missing the rest of the toxic influence narrative. Or the kind of political interests spreading the meme wide elsewhere that "the rule of law is dead" under the Democratic Party.

While I don't doubt there are a few real professional (or even amateur) trolls that get onto DU, it's the height of ridiculous paranoia to view every post you think is too negative as part of an organized infiltration.

(15,909 posts)You ask that question as if it's a given the two are inextricably linked. They're not. Biden respects the separation that needs to exist between the the DoJ and the executive.
That has an unfortunate outcome in this case, but the impetus to prosecute Trump and his cronies has to come from within the DoJ itself. It most certainly cannot be the result of Biden personally urging them to do so.
You talk as if the choice of an AG is not something POTUS controls.
Silent3
(15,909 posts)Nor would it make Biden a bad president if he couldn't predict the future in every detail of how Garland would perform.
Now that Garland has been picked, it would be a far more overtly political and intrusive act for Biden to fire him just because we aren't getting desired indictments out of him.
Criticism of the DoJ and how it performs is at most very faint and indirect criticism of Biden. Only a consistent pattern of bad personnel picks can form a reasonable basis for criticism of Biden's leadership.

(15,909 posts)And treating Biden as if he's directly to blame for the specific actions of his every appointment, especially in an area like the DoJ where he must be very hands-off (again, if he's not as awful as Trump).

However, one cannot just be critical of one cabinet member and totally ignore the person ultimately responsible for the actions and performance of the Administration.
If Biden believes it's critical , for the greater good if this country, that Trump be brought to justice, then maybe Garland should be replaced. If not, then Biden can take a hands off approach and let Garland decide what is the best course of action.

https://www.uscourts.gov/educational-resources/educational-activities/overview-rule-law
The problem here and now in the U.S. is that second item. The law, in re Donald J. Trump, is not equally enforced. Never has been. He is above the law. And the same is true of some who have acted on his behalf.
Why is that?
Who is not enforcing laws applicable to his actions?
We (or anyone) cannot say that America is a nation of laws and that no man is above the law as long as Donald J. Trump is not held accountable for his crimes.
This means either 1. America is a Banana Republic, or 2. a criminal element (a crime syndicate?) is in power that refuses to uphold the laws of the land. Further degradation of the laws will occur until the party in power summons up the strength to rectify the situation at hand.
