I miss the rule of law.

"Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."

Rule of law be damned. The rogue Department of Just-Us is busy running out the clock, avoiding any convincing statement of either real guilt or exoneration until the statute of limitations has run out, and the damage done is irreversible.

Who guards us against the guardians?
