Finn: Short For Feenis

Over the last eighteen months, officials of the ruling party and the people who fund it have accepted cash bribes on camera, received pardons after making large payments to the president and his family, defied a unanimous directive from the Supreme Court, and shot and killed United States citizens.

Federal prosecutors have charged no one for any of it, and not because federal law enforcement stopped working: the administration closed or defunded the offices that would have brought those cases, the prosecutors who refused to drop them resigned in groups, and the rest of the department kept working.

The same Department of Justice that closed those cases is right now considering a criminal referral against Jack Smith, the special counsel who prosecuted the president. Federal law enforcement is protecting one party and prosecuting its opposition, and every case below is documented by court records, congressional letters, or major news reporting.

They act this publicly because they are not scared: they are in charge, they are getting away with it, and they are confident they can avoid consequences.
