RATS, SINKING SHIP, ETC: ATF Director Dettelbach Reportedly Resigning Before Being Fired by the New Trump Administration.

JEFFREY CARTER: If people want to immigrate to the United States, make them pay. “However, to understand the meaning behind charging for immigration, there has to be background. Here goes. I do think that you have to separate immigration from other issues that have risen to the top in the fiery X debate on immigration. For example, American culture used to have a higher tolerance for failure. Our educational system used to be great and now it stinks. Those tie into arguments around human capital but are separate from immigration. For example, if America had 0 immigrants, our public educational system would still stink. . . . By charging for immigration, there would be a psychological difference in the kind of immigrant. They would pay the price to immigrate, and a psychological construct would be created, they would become ‘American’ by paying that price. That means assimilation happens faster.”

MY LAST NEW YORK POST COLUMN OF 2024: Merrick Garland corrupted the Justice Department with political persecutions.

AT LEAST. Blackball Them, At Least.

As tempting as it is to prosecute all the people who abused power by going after Trump and his allies, as a practical matter, only a few, if any, will face justice in the courts.

A few, such as Fauci, should be prosecuted for lying to Congress, and any open and shut cases should be pursued. Even if Biden preemptively pardons some of the malefactors, it may be possible to haul them before Congress and force them to either spill the beans, face contempt of Congress charges, or perjury if they continue to lie.

But for the most part, all but the very worst will skate, at least legally.

But there are other means to punish those who violated the public trust–people like Mark Milley or others who are cashing in on their time at the pinnacle of power: blackball them.

The Biden administration did this with many Trump officials–they made it known that if a company that did business with the government in any way hired Trump people, there would be consequences. For the first time in memory, working at the White House or in a position of power in an administration was a black mark harming one’s employability or income.

The Trump people should do this x2. Chances are good that a figure such as Mark Milley will never face justice for what amounted to treason, but his income stream could be severely hampered by making it clear to his connected employers that doing business with Milley means not doing business with the government.

I’m not sure that Milley shouldn’t be on the “prosecute” list, too.

If you're wondering why people are angry, try going through dozens of these fake interviews. Spending hrs preparing for each one just to not get a call back. Thats if the interviewer even has the decency to show.
