41. "Had" is my assumption. We did have a change of administration

after all, and those people had far more understanding of the problem than any of us.

First step to wisdom is to know that we don't have "the facts," just some at best, and are always in danger of misinterpreting those we believe we do.

After all, three dots in hand may seem to be "the facts" that form a triangle with unmistakable certitude, but what happens to what we "know" when an unsuspected fourth dot is found and added? Then dozens more?

A way of saying, I really don't think you have enough facts to justify suggesting the current DoJ is corrupt. And where are all the facts that suggest it's not?
