The Rule Of Law Is Dead

Guest Post by Karl Denninger

Why does Facebook get away with using your microphone to “target ads” without Zuckerpig being indicted despite laws in several states, including Florida, that make interception of oral communications a felony unless everyone involved gives consent?  We’re talking about literally millions of felonies being committed daily, and Zuckerpig’s Facebook is not alone — Amazon’s “Echo” and other similar products and services anyone?  Samsung’s TVs, as just one example?

Why did our government run guns to drug dealers that were then used in dozens of murders, including a border agent, and yet nobody has been indicted or gone to prison for it?

Why did our government fine big banks (instead of indicting the officers and directors) who were knowingly laundering billions of drug money on an international basis?

This is why:

The Rasmussen poll released Tuesday found 71 percent of Democratic voters believe she (Hillary) should keep running even if indicted, a view shared by only 30 percent of Republicans and 46 percent of unaffiliated voters. Overall, 50 percent of those polled said she should keep running.

Note that this is not just about possible security problems; there is apparently evidence that Hillary and Bill used their “family foundation” to sell influence including to foreign entities and in fact there are people speculating that she won’t just be indicted related to mishandling classified information (which I remind you can and often does get people killed) but possibly on racketeering charges — that is, just like the mob!

Yet 71% of Democrat voters say this doesn’t matter and she should keep running even if indicted on such charges.

That’s right — even if you sell the United States government to foreign nationals and governments you should be running for President according to seven in ten Democrats and fully half of those polled in general.

Forget it folks — this nation is no longer a nation and no longer has the rule of law.

Our government is now an organized criminal racket that operates with the full support of no less than seventy percent of the votes in one of the two major political parties!
