Hunting Witches

THE RUSSO-TRUMPO investigation seems to be getting a bit serious. Trump's current attorney, one of them, Mr. Cohen, one of the ones who hasn't resigned, was visited, or rather his office was, by a team of FBI agents with a search warrant, and, by all accounts, they found what they were looking for, whatever it may have been. Something pertaining to communication between the Trump campaign and Russian operatives, possibly. or maybe some juicy obstruction of justice tidbits. Or, a sexual harassment problem or two. The president tweeted something about "witch hunts", and the death of attorney client privilege. The president appears not to understand the concept of "due process", which is exactly the kind of process, all perfectly legal, the "T's" and "I's" crossed and dotted, being used by the Mueller investigation. The president, methinks, doth protest too much, as if the very ideals which undermine american democracy are threatened. You have to figure they had a reason, most likely a good one, for the sudden search, and that it was all on the up and up. Due process is absent from all right wing plans. Famed for its strict adherence to the literal constitution, America's right wing is quite ready and willing, but not able, to incarcerate Hillary Clinton, for...nothing. The lady has never even had so much as a parking ticket. "Lock her up" did not include any mention of evidence, indictment, trial, or conviction, none of which Hillary Clinton has ever undergone. But let a former FBI director ask a few questions about potential treasonous collusion, and, lo and behold, it becomes a "witch hunt". Sometimes when witches are hunted, a few are found.
