I was going to wait until next week to absorb all this memo business and post some thoughts, but my ‘tween-projects hiatus has gifted me with more free time than normal, so what the hell.

First, some links; here is what Drudge offers this morning:

Here’s the Wall Street Journal’s take on it, and American Greatness, and our friends over at Maggie’s Farm.  Pirate’s Cove has weighed in, as has The Other McCain.  Over at PJMedia, Roger Simon also has some sharp words on the topic.

Now, my thoughts:

This, True Believers, is coming out to have been a cluster-fuck of the first magnitude on the part of the Clinton campaign, the DNC and elements in the FBI.  The plan seems to have been “if you can’t uncover evidence, make some up.”  As Robert Stacy McCain points out:  “In the case of the make-believe “Russian collusion,” it appears that practically everybody involved in trying to get the Trump campaign tangled up in this embarrassing mess was, in one way or another, working for FusionGPS, which was being bankrolled by the Clinton campaign and the DNC.”

Heads should roll over this.  Heads probably won’t roll over this, sadly; a few minor functionaries will be the designated fall-takers, and some fines and maybe some jail time will be meted out.  But while common sense may tell us that it’s impossible to believe that the highest levels in the Clinton campaign and the Obama Justice Department didn’t know what was going on (clandestine taxiway meetings, anyone?) it’s widely known that Her Imperial Majesty and the former President Obama and his higher-level staff are untouchable.

Why?  Because equal treatment under the law is a dead letter in our nation, and has been for some time.  The Dowager Empress and her favored minions will skate.  The scandal will blow over, and most of the Imperial apparatus will continue with business as usual.

Still:  Let us watch closely over the next few weeks.  This thing isn’t over yet, and this is an occasion where I’d love to be proven wrong.
