Dear Friends,
It seems to me, by their own actions, the Department Of Justice, Federal Bureau of Investigation as well as other once prestigious agencies of the bureaucracy, are not only despoiling their names, but the very reason for their existence. Proving, no agencies are capable of handling such authority, without perverting it. Because, since it’s happened once, it’ll happen again. Moreover, the more power invested in such agencies of government, the more likely they are to abuse that power. It’s a function of human nature. Their open political bias has become a horrible nightmare. When the apparatus of power serves itself, including perverting elections, what solution is there? The obvious answer, is to get rid of the entire bureaucracy, but firing one’s master, is a dangerous thing at best.
Examples of the naked political bias of the DOJ, FBI, and basically every single agency of the bureaucracy, abound. The standing joke, “Every time a Biden scandal breaks… they arrest Trump,” Simply makes the point. The bureaucracy is progressive. That’s as natural as water flowing downhill. Bureaucracies are filled with “experts.” Experts, shockingly, believe in experts. They know they’re great, and so assume all the other experts, are just as great as them. Experts also believe in progress. They are by nature then, progressives. So no one should be amazed that the experts in the bureaucracy, believe that experts are the best to rule. With unlimited power, because what does an expert need with the ideas of laymen? The hoi polloi, their self interests and morals, just get in the way.
The future can be reliably predicted by looking at the past. People have known this for a thousand years or more, yet fail to implement it, ever. It’s like not allowing that two plus two equals four, it must equal five. Then acting on it and wondering why our math doesn’t work? It must be that math is racist. It can’t be that we don’t accept empirical reality for it’s political inexpediency. That bureaucracy becomes corrupt, is in and of itself, proof that bureaucracy will always eventually, become corrupt. Look for the black swan all you want but in the lake we swim in… there are only white ones, and a few grays. Even if a black swan were to exist somewhere, the rarity alone precludes it as being the standard, used to justify such oppression, corruption and societal destruction, as meted out by the administrative state.
In a perfect world, we could pare the bureaucracy back to a manageable level, but the bureaucracy is itself a hydra. A hydra that justifies its existence by the chaos it creates. Because nothing else could contain that chaos but a hydra. Or so the circular logic goes. Moreover, that hydra controls the levers of real power, the courts, police and bureaucracy. It’s growing more heads even as you read this. Each head is a kingdom in its own right. Trump tangled with the hydra and he’s still feeling the bites and stings. Perhaps if someone cut a head off the thing might be slowed, but all anyone wants to do is tame a head or two, to their bidding… not kill the monster. It can be so helpful to a political career. So how to slay the beast, or set it back, at least?
The heart is the weak point of the bureaucracy. Wickard v Filburn, Korematsu and associated rulings that gave birth to the hydra in the first place. Rescind them, by demanding it of the Supreme Court, or constitutional convention of the states if need be, but remove the heart and the beast dies. The only way to make such drastic changes is to enrage public opinion to it. The fodder’s there. The corruption is evident and undeniable. Even yellow dog democrats see the corruption and are starting to balk. Expose the heart of the hydra and perhaps some great attorney, destined for history, may pick up a legal spear and stab it. Ending the terrible reign of an unconstitutional parasite on our great Constitutional Republic. Tell people about why the corruptocracy exists… the courts created it. They can end it.
Sincerely,
John Pepin
