Krasner: So, if what you have is a group of ICE agents, or even the military, coming into Philadelphia and committing crimes—assaults that are illegal, kidnapping, unlawful restraint, obstruction of the administration of justice—they can be prosecuted.

The outrage isn’t that Ghislaine Maxwell lied — that’s who she’s always been. The outrage is that the U.S. Department of Justice rewarded those lies with real benefits — and more are still coming. This isn’t justice. It’s a state-sponsored cover-up — and they think we won’t notice.

It isn’t normal for a president to repeatedly threaten the use of military force against American citizens. Treating the National Guard as a political pawn disrespects those who serve and undermines public trust in our military.

The second amendment guarantees the right to a militia to guard against federal tyranny. But if a president can use that force against its own state, against the wishes of that state, then it is no militia at all and a clear violation of the second amendment.

Ghislaine Maxwell is one of the most infamous and most formidable villains. She is a prolific sex trafficker, groomer, and child rapist. She did not work for Epstein. They were a team, and Trump one of their premiere clients. The US president raped children, and using the US govt to cover it up.

Here is how the media should be reporting this morning's news. As part of a growing pattern of political retribution, Donald Trump's FBI has raided the home of a prominent administration critic. In this instance it happens to be John Bolton. The pretense is largely irrelevant.

It's really something to read a convicted abuser and trafficker make sure in her DOJ interview to praise the President of the United States, who is trying to prove he wasn't one of her clients, in order to try and get a pardon from the President of the United States. Not at all disturbing.

I suspect the John Bolton thing is less likely a show trial than a show investigation. The powers of the FBI/DOJ/prosecutors provide the ability to systematically persecute people for years, ruining their lives and costing them enormous amounts of money in legal fees with little recourse.
