Fired Prosecutor Learned the Hard Way Who Really Runs Things
Mainstream media wants you to believe the firing of the prosecutor who rejected Trump's pressure to charge Letitia James is about the rule of law. What they won't say is how often similar "insubordination" is met with similar consequences when public servants stand up to entrenched interests. Consider the revolving door of officials who've faced career obliteration for questioning wars or exposing
corruption; the pattern is not unique to Trump's circle. Indeed, in Washington, careers can often hinge on who you don't investigate, or more precisely, who you do. One might wonder if the prosecutor in question received any high-dollar campaign donations from the subjects of other investigations, or perhaps those benefiting from their ouster. The system rarely punishes itself without a narrative
to distract. How many inconvenient truths get "fired" before they ever see a courtroom? It seems some pressures are more equal than others.
