The truth is too dangerous to tell ? [View all]

Some people are too afraid to speak it. Some are too afraid to even think it.

It is so much easier to simply ignore. Especially for those in positions to do something about it.

What is the truth about January 6th? Were all those people that have been arrested independent actors? What is the truth about sedition and incitement to insurrection? Where do the charges stop? Can we get a mulligan on this one?

What is the truth about Russian interference in our elections of 2016 and 2020? Can we really handle the truth? Who, besides Paul Manafort, was in collusion with Russian intelligence? And why? Do we really want to know?

Do we really want to know about all the money-laundering? How many politicians have money in off-shore accounts? Can we just sweep this question under the rug?

How much money was stolen from the US Treasury in the last 4 years? Do we even have an idea? Did Mnuchin ever account for the $400 billion he had set aside? Does anyone care?

How about all the bribes and threats and obstructions of justice? Are those no longer crimes? How about threatening elected officials to find votes or else? Is that even worth bringing up?

Are there lines that our Justice Department are afraid to cross? Or are all these imagined crimes just figments of our imagination?
