(74,819 posts)This is just my opinion, of course. But when individuals at a certain level in our government -- and I include elected/appointed offices and corporate positions -- have, or may have, committed a crime, it is highly unlikely they will ever be charged. It's often said that there are two types of justice in America -- one for the rich, and one for everyone else. And there was a time when it really was that simple .....
Today, there are actually far more levels of justice than that. There is a distinct one for non-elected government officials, with linkages to corporations and/or organizations with international ties. This has actually frustrated the good men and women within our intelligence community, particularly in the past 15 years. This is what the conversation on this thread, just above your post here, is addressing.
