Once you take a nuclear action on something corrupt, there is no return. The Obama-era weaponization of the intelligence apparatus for political purposes was one such nuclear action. That weaponization was an escalation of action that forever sealed the need to hide it.
The intelligence apparatus, including the DOJ/FBI and aligned agencies, in addition to the DOJ officials within the Mueller probe, previously exploited their surveillance access to records and communication of Donald Trump and his administration. Those intelligence operatives then spun and leaked parts of those records in order to build a fictitious Trump-Russia narrative and simultaneously distract from the prior unlawful surveillance.
Today the AP is reporting that Attorney General Merrick Garland is barring any DOJ office from seizing the communication of any journalists. In essence Garland is providing cover for the prior and ongoing coordination of Intelligence Community leaks to media allies. Remember, the Intelligence Branch operates as a public-private partnership; part of that purpose requires an alignment with corrupt U.S. media.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Attorney General Merrick Garland on Monday formally prohibited federal prosecutors from seizing the records of journalists in leak investigations, with limited exceptions, reversing years of department policy.
The new policy largely codifies the commitment Garland made in June, when he said the Justice Department would abandon the practice of seizing reporters’ records in leak investigations.
In addition to a global scraping of metadata, the NSA also collects the domestic private information of all Americans. This was the essential background story that NSA Contractor Edward Snowden broke several years ago. We now know this to be an accepted fact.
The government push to promote vaccinations for COVID-19 has gone well beyond reasonable advancement for the public health.

More government advocates are pushing toward mandatory vaccinations for a virus that has 99.9% survival rate.
The DC Swamp is launching an investigation into the Maricopa County, Arizona, election and ballot audit. This should not come as a surprise after several strategy sessions in DC between the White House, executive branch, congress and allied media have taken place.
