Whether one is a Democrat, Independent, or Republican, equal application of our laws should be of paramount importance…rule-of-law is fundamental to the Constitution.

Angelo Codevilla’s op-ed “Why Are Clapper and Brennan Not in Jail?” is a damning indictment of the legal system…unless there’s something coming we aren’t aware of.

As with Hillary and her infamous email scandal, laws were PROVABLY broken; the lack of indictments is yet another scary example of Justice Department double standards…

…and a national disgrace. Here are the money quotes…

(Bold, underline emphasis added in all excerpts)

“The clearest of all the laws concerning U.S. intelligence is Section 798, 18 U.S. Code—widely known in the Intelligence Community as “the Comint Statute,” or “the 10 and 10.” Unlike other laws, this is a “simple liability” law. Motivation, context, identity, matter not at all. You violate it, you are guilty and are punished accordingly.“

“…in January 2017, Brennan and Clapper made…statements on national television. The only possible excuse—that their allegations were lies—is irrelevant because the essence of the violation is the revelation that U.S intelligence was monitoring the communications of the Russians in America, and those of the Trump campaign as well. This is true…that revelation is a textbook violation of the Comint Statute.”

The question remains: why aren’t Brennan and Clapper in jail, or at least indicted?

Loyalty to a political Party shouldn’t be more important than equal application of law.

PERIOD.
