Eric Georgatos
at American Thinker thinks the battle is just beginning. His essay opens:
In four consecutive days, what a
lineup of events to illustrate the upheaval America is going
through. We had the I.G. report delivered on December 9; we watched
Attorney General Barr step up on December 10 with two explosive interviews with
the basic message that the I.G. report is the bare minimum in terms of
describing the official wrongdoing that's already fully understood by Barr and
is going to be exposed by John Durham; and we watched on December 11 I.G.
Michael Horowitz's extraordinarily damaging-to-the-FBI-and-DOJ testimony at the
Senate Judiciary Committee.
And on the fourth day, the kicker
"tell" for the turmoil that lies ahead: the Wall Street Journal — one
of the last bastions of at least a whiff of objective journalism among the
mainstream media — comes out with a print edition on December 12 where the
front page has not one story on Horowitz's Senate testimony the
previous day.
The WSJ has plenty of sophisticated
writers who can patch together some erudite-sounding explanation for their
front-page story selections. But the elephant in the room stands:
the events of this week demonstrate that every single element of the American
ruling class — eight-plus years' worth of Deep State Obama leftists; the
Uniparty Senators — like Richard Burr; Mark Warner; and yes,
Lindsey Graham; the MSM; rigged-trade, anti-Trump globalists — every
one of them is at risk of collapse in power and prestige, not to mention
financial setbacks. The fact that the WSJ appears to have adopted a
move-along, nothing-to-see-here posture at a time when the demand for
accountability should headline the news — well, it signals that the ruling
class still believe they can lead on the ignorant masses with their lies,
censorship, and suppression of information, and keep on keepin' on.
So it is going to fall on the
people of this country to hold the wrongdoers accountable, to refuse to
"move along," to insist that this level of malfeasance must be
punished. The comeuppance must be sustained public outrage,
institutional house-cleaning, and ultimately an electoral smack-down like
America has never seen before.
