But if the prosecution is as vigorous as I think it will be, then some folks are going to be convicted.
Just the pursuit of justice should be enough to force the future Comeys and Brennans of the world to think twice before they violate their oath of office again.
No only convicted but financially ruined. These scumbags hiding behind their governmental protective cloak need to reap what they sow.
As tempting as this is, and as despicable as these people are, I believe that the threat of being financially ruined because of the cost of defending yourself needs to stop being used as a weapon by the government.
That concern is at the heart of why Gen. Flynn plead guilty to a false charge in the first place (as it relates to knowingly false prosecution of his son).
I don't know how to fix it, but the government's ability to not only use it's full weight and power against you but to also cause you to go broke in the process regardless of the outcome (meaning even if you win you lose) is a really scary thing.
