The unfathomable and the irritating

In a daily ritual of exchanging articles of note, DLH responded to my forward of two  items dealing with matters we have paid a lot of attention to — the IRS scandal of targeting conservative groups and the “transgenda” . The articles of note, via Heritage Foundation and Town Hall respectively are:

Why Are Trump’s Justice Department Appointees Protecting the IRS?

BREAKING: Trump Signs Memo Banning Transgender Individuals From Openly Serving in Military

I referred to the first matter as unfathomable.  DLH responded:

“Unfathomable” only if one refuses to believe that Trump and his people are not in charge. They cannot act because they are fearful that it could make Ivanka, Jared, Gary Cohn, Kelly, et al really, really mad.

The purge of conservatives that Trump initially brought in for the purpose of fulfilling his campaign promises is now nearly complete with the departure of Gorka. At DOJ Sessions is so hamstrung, he might as well leave. Rosenstein has been in charge all along.

The best example of the situation is illustrated by the recent action by the FBI in  its ‘dawn raid’ on Paul Manafort…about a dozen heavily armed FBI agents descended on Manafort’s home at 6 AM…conducted a “search” for 10 hours, and hauled off records, electronic devices, etc.

Supposedly they required credible evidence of a crime in order to get the search warrant. Did they? Who the hell would ever know?

This is real “secret police” stuff…Stalinist,Maoist:  KGB, Red Guard, Stasi, Gestapo…FBI, what’s the difference? There should be very serious and widespread  concern when an “election nullification” can be so easily accomplished.

We both agreed that Trump’s directive as commander in chief to end the enlistment of transgender  recruits was needed but we were not enthusiastic about Trumps last sentence in the directive to the effect he wants to hear from the Secretary of Defense if he thinks problems can be overcome.  We are aware that SOD Mattis is on record saying he “doesn’t see a problem with Obama’s order (installing transgenders) prior to Trump’s election.
