The answer to all this is individual accountability. We have a Bill of Rights. Violate the Bill of Rights and you must face the music. Violate our National Security by cheating on an election and you must face the music. Don't hide behind the 'swamp'. You are guilty. There was an executive order in January 2018 dictating severe punishment for those who with foreign involvement perform fraud. Impose these penalties. There will be no swamp. Trump will do this. Nobody else will. It must be done.
Kind of related. My mother in law never wanted to give to charity. She believed government was best. The collective was best. Similarly, when the collective caused a crime, then oh well, no one should be punished. Socialism, communism in action.
As you say, making this personal is the answer. People, individuals, are responsible. Individuals need to be punished.
Sad but true. There is a glimmer of hope because I am very pessimistic. I see Joe Biden as the new Herbert Hoover. The dollar is collapsing. We might default. The market is near its all-time high, with nothing to justify its strength. The Ukraine is a lost cause. Our Congress is clueless. Intelligent productive Americans see our government as a bunch of crooks. We will not pull together. Out of desperation even, no, especially those most dependent on government may vote the bums out.
FISA isn't a tool. It was, on the part of the Left in Congress, an attempt to limit the use of a tool that is implicit in the Constitution--to defend the national security beyond the bounds of criminal law-- and to make political hay. Abolish FISA and the duty of the Executive as CinC remains and he still has authority to surveil. The Executive, through the FBI, did plenty of surveillance before FISA. It was rarely abused because the there was no stay-out-of-jail aspect in place. That came with FISA. The problem with FISA is that, with any supposed system, the great temptation is to leave it to run on its own with little to no real oversight.

Mistakes were made, all go free. Go and mistake no more, but if you do forgiveness is yours for the asking.
Meanwhile a Jan 6th judge won’t allow a defendant’s lawyer share video or question witnesses of a known FBI CHS.
The judiciary has covered itself in shame in all this.
I am horrified by the Jan 6 prosecutions. And the gulag. How is this even happening?
Fisa = immunization from prosecution (forgiveness). Brilliant.

“They,” the various cast of characters running and ruining this place, will never allow Trump near the WH again. It was a one and done.

Zhou says he’s blameless. C’mon man!
It’s a process… guilty until proven innocent.
