In April 2005, a Republican-led Department of Justice did something quite unusual. After catching a Democratic operative stealing and destroying highly relevant classified documents, the DoJ punished him as though he had stolen the Snickers bars from the office vending machine.
On October 28, 2005, another curious event took place in those same halls of justice: an allegedly Republican special prosecutor indicted a White House advisor of his own party for a series of process crimes unrelated to the original intent of his investigation.
As will become clear, this double injustice not only foreshadowed future injustices, but it also served as a practice run of sorts for the players involved. Several of these players would come center stage once again in the long-running political drama that debuted in 2016.
The Democratic operative on that barely warm seat in 2005 was former Clinton National Security Advisor Sandy Berger, since deceased. The attorney general at the time, the feckless Alberto Gonzales, had been on the job less than two months when the Berger deal went down.
Gonzales’s deputy attorney general, James Comey, however, had been on the job for more than a year. It was under Comey’s supervision that the DoJ reviewed the case against Berger. It was a doozy.
In the nerviest of his criminal acts, Berger stole highly classified documents and stashed them under a trailer at a construction site during a break. He retrieved the documents at the end of the day and admittedly used scissors to cut them into little pieces before throwing them away. He then lied to investigators about what he had done.

This is why an example has to be made of everyone who did this kind of thing. No wrist slaps. Real significant prison time to fit the crime.
Why was Mueller allowed to be head of the Special Counsel?
You can bet this DBag Mueller will NOT let TRUMP off easy!!!
TRUMP destroyed his money making Brother in Crime
We are lost as a nation if this does not change NOW.
Our intelligence services and career DOJ run the country. Those elected are only window dressing and can be controlled through blackmail or endless investigation.
Wiretaps, surveillance, and a total loss of constitutional rights is in place today.
If the wiretaps of the Trump campaign had found malfeasance, that would be the story....not the criminal and fascist manner in which the malfeasance was discovered..
This is it. If we cannot stop this with Trump, it is checkmate.
> the DoJ punished him as though he had stolen the Snickers bars from the office vending machine.
Wrong. You go to jail for stealing Snickers bars.
Republican presidents have little control over their Justice Departments. The Bush White House had even less control than does the Trump White House. The Trump White House at least has Trump.
Republican presidents struggle against a collective of entrenched careerists, soulless opportunists, and left-wing ideologues — the so-called “deep state.” The ideologues are in it for the power, the careerists for the pensions, and the opportunists for the applause. Working together with their media partners, they follow the path of least resistance, which is almost inevitably to the left. When a Democrat is president, they have his back.

The DOJ is like a house infested with cockroaches. It needs to be tented and fumigated. Pathetic Sessions is *not* up the the task.
Papadopoulos Court Docs Provide More Evidence Russiagate Was A Setup To Get Trump
Why didn’t the FBI wire George Papadopoulos and arrange for him to meet with Joseph Mifsud during the State Department conference?
“Our intelligence services and career DOJ run the country”
Exactly,
And as reprobate chuckie schumer says, ‘six ways to Sunday’
Mifsud allegedly denied Papadop's version of the story. Mifsud could be western intelligence, could be a patsy, could be a Russian agent (very unlikely). Also remember that Papadop was and is naive. His alleged blabbing about Mifsud's promise dirt on Hillary was made to this guy:
(the guy on the left). That and that alone was enough for Strzok to start illegally monitoring the opposition campaign (illegal because he didn't get his rubber stamp warrant until months later)
Liberal leftist demonrats do anything they want with the complicity of the rat media.....
