A critique of prosecutors misusing govt power.

RUSH: "Well, they are taking a lot of people out. I mean, that’s the thing. They are destroying a lot of people. That’s one of the powers that they have. They’re destroying people’s entire lifetime net worth. RUSH:They are able to take actions that result in people losing their homes. And this also happened during the Enron trials. It happened during the Ted Stevens trial. When I was reading about that in Sidney Powell’s book, there was a glee. The prosecutors were backslapping themselves. They were happy when they ruin somebody.
It was like a notch in the belt kind of sense of achievement when they force somebody to plead guilty because they’d run out of money, they were having to borrow money, sell their house to be able to pay their lawyers, the prosecutors were doing dances on the graves. And I’m sure they’re doing that now. I’m sure they’re dancing on the grave of Flynn, they’re dancing on the grave of Manafort, they hope to be dancing on Trump’s grave.
They’re just despicable people. And there is no sense of humility whatsoever. If these are really serious crimes that threaten the structure and stability and security of the United States, then there ought to be some solemnity here about stopping it, bringing it to a screeching halt and convicting the people that are engaging in these horrible practices. But there isn’t any of this. This is just notching the belt, getting scalps, using power for the sake of it.
People who are not having to use any of their own personal money to conduct these witch hunts are taking glee in destroying people. And for what reason? They don’t even know them personally. It’s all political! They know Trump, they worked for Trump, they raised money for Republicans or what have you. It’s really no more complicated than that. But it was eye opening to read how happy and celebratory these prosecutors were as they destroyed people. And the people they destroyed, in many cases, were innocent.
By the time the legal system had run its course cases had been overturned and convictions vacated as high as the United States Supreme Court, the United States federal court, Washington district in the case of Ted Stevens. But the damage had been done.
So that other aspect, just the human nature aspect of this, the glee that these people are experiencing as they don’t have to use their own money. They’ve got Uncle Sam’s Treasury, and they have limitless access to it. And they take great pleasure in destroying people. They savor the power they have to do that. It’s a gross misuse of power that is being engaged in right now, and for no crime to have been committed."

Rush then went on to describe how Comey bragged that he trapped Flynn by not telling Flynn that he was testifying to Federal agents. They simply trapped Flynn into a perjury. Even the agents believed that Flynn was innocent but they bankrupted the man. Comey and Mueller should be tried and jailed for this.
