Prosecutorial Bolshevism

 The victims this time are Trump and his friends. But it could be you next time, and it will be.

In the United States of America, there are roughly 3,150 counties. Most of them have prosecutors or district attorneys. Each one of these can usually empanel a grand jury. These grand juries can, with rare exceptions, meet in secret to consider indicting anyone at all. There need be no publicity at all, but there usually is. These grand juries can call witnesses and even require Americans to testify for days or even weeks on end on matters that took place years before.

 

The “defendants” in these matters are not allowed to have lawyers, although sometimes they do. They are sometimes kept from their families and colleagues for long periods.

At any point the prosecutors can issue indictments for crimes, real or imagined, felonies or misdemeanors based on the proceedings of the grand juries. In many jurisdictions, but not all, the mere fact of being indicted bars an American from holding public office or even running for public office.

Roughly half of the DAs are Democrats. They can indict anyone they wish and hold him for trial. The defendants can or cannot afford legal counsel. However, the defendants’ careers in public service are generally at an end once the indictments are handed down.
This process is similar to Bolshevik indictments of “counterrevolutionaries” in Stalin’s Russia. All of the face cards are owned by the prosecutors. There is almost no limit to the powers of the prosecutors. They can simply take down the career and life of anyone they wish. This is known as “prosecutorial misconduct” and there is no known way to stop it.

But this is exactly what is happening in the USA right now. A dictatorship of prosecutor-bureaucrats has overruled and demolished the usually understood constitutional processes of the nation. It’s not a fantasy. It’s happening right now. The victims this time are Trump and his friends. But it could be you next time, and it will be. “A boot stomping on a human face forever,” as Orwell said. Again, it’s happening now, and it can kill America as we know it.
