Criminal Elements are In Charge of Justice

Did you see the news today?  Michael Flynn's criminal case was dropped by the Justice Department.  The President immediately stated that he did not know that it was about to happen.  Also, the lead prosecutor removed himself from the case just prior to the announcement.  The submission to the court was not signed by any career prosecutor.  It was signed by a political appointee.

This shows there was a criminal element inside the Trump campaign and now inside the White House.  This has lead to the hollowing out of the structure and institutional memory of the our legal system.  Look, I am no fan of the American legal system.  It has been used to control, subjugate, and terrorize Black people for centuries.  Our problem, there is nothing better to turn to so we attempt to work the system.  The incarceration rate (38% of prisoners are Black, while Blacks make up 13.4% Americans) is an indicator that demonstrates this strategy is a straight loser.  Now the head of the justice department overrides all of the lawyers who have worked for years to make the system "equal for all".  He is the hand picked and appointed henchman of the President.  He decides who will be prosecuted regardless of the evidence or the process to gather it.

No one will stand up to the criminality that is in plain sight.  They are all afraid to call it out because it might damage the institution.  They can't see that the Justice Department has been coopted for the personal use of the President and his friends.  Let's face it, none of us could talk to Russians while we are the head of a presidential campaign, lie to the FBI and Congress about it, plead guilty, allocute in federal court, and then have the head of the Justice Department drop the case against us.  The honest white folks wring their hands and then do nothing.  There is no moral compass in the country.  The only thing that is ubiquitous is the love of money.  It unites people from all ethnicities.  Its the only thing we can agree about - how much we love the almighty dollar.  It has no equal.  This is what I believe restrains all the "good folks".  They are more afraid of losing their money than they are of losing their soul.
