There is no justice for its miscarriage

The state protects its own

This post started with my decision to comment on this note:

What I wanted to stay was that “what I would find satisfying is seeing her (Sara Levin) on trial, along with every other government official abusing their power for personal or political gain.”

Then I realized that this is a subject that just does not want to leave me alone.
The point that no state actor ever gets punished for crimes committed under the protective mantle of the state.

In my post “The fifth moment” I mentioned that I received the 300 page file of the Hungarian State Security Archives on myself. I found none of the information in it I was hoping for. Nothing from, or about the state actors involved. I wanted to write about it, but a year and a half later, I still couldn’t make myself to do it. The crimes of the communists are safely in the books of history, whitewashed, redacted, sanitized.

I mentioned in my post Emily and the House of Terror that on that building there are hundreds of pictures of the victims who were killed there. There are no pictures, no names of the perpetrators. As I pointed out in “Hate is a big word”, I have good reasons to think that my stepfather was one of them.

We seem to be desperately hanging onto the idea that justice exists. However much we may dislike lawyers, we still give them immunity for the crimes they may and do commit in their official capacity.
I already wrote several posts demanding accountability for, but at least full exposures of the crimes of various state actors.
I searched for the must severe punishment for prosecutorial misconduct in the US.
Make a wild guess what it is…. I will give it to you in a minute.

, the poster of the video above, has a painful family history with MK-Ultra.
Just like the Tuskegee experiment, it is now also in the history books. Nobody ever has been investigated, tried or punished for them. None of the criminals responsible for them has even been exposed. Being ‘safely in the history books’ means that they never will be.

As are, and will be the crimes of the CIA, the FBI and Big Pharma or any other agency you care to add to the list.

When Trump was running in the 2016 election, the crowds at his rallies were chanting “Lock her up”.
Eight years later, there is still no attempt to investigate Hillary Clinton, let alone putting her on trial.
She has been implicated in over 100 premeditated/suspected murders. Several books have been written about their criminal enterprise with Bill. The writer of one of those books, just like Jeffrey Epstein got (officially) suicided. ‘Officially’ means that they will NOT be investigated.

Barak Obama ordered the spying on the Trump campaign. That is an impeachable offense, yet it was Trump who got impeached; more than once under bogus charges.

Joe, ‘the big guy’ Biden was openly bragging about blackmailing the Ukrainian government. It is common knowledge that he is a corrupt criminal with the involvement of his whole family. No justice in sight.

On Jan 6^th 2021 there were hundreds of ‘agent provocateurs’ on the streets. None has been investigated.

But I am just repeating myself, I discussed this already in my post “There can be no peace without justice”

So let me give you the answer to the question I asked above, “what was the most severe punishment for prosecutorial misconduct in American history”

The answer is ten days in jail, only five served. This prosecutor was also disbarred and had to pay a $7,500 dollars fine. This was the only case the AI engines were able to find.
But the kicker is this: the state, meaning you, the taxpayer, had to pay $2,000,000 in damages for the wrongful conviction.

“Prosecutors enjoy absolute immunity from civil lawsuits for actions taken in their official prosecutorial duties”

“Prosecutorial immunity shields prosecutors from most civil lawsuits, limiting financial penalties. Criminal charges are rare due to high legal thresholds and institutional reluctance to prosecute prosecutors.” (From a Grok search result; emphasis mine)

Isn’t it grand to be a lawyer?
The documentary on patent trolling, linked in my post Shakedowns, clearly exposes a criminal enterprise made possible by corrupt lawyers and judges using the law and its procedures as weapons to shake down small businesses. Just the legal costs amount to 29 billion dollars per year.
The only thing that is needed is the willingness to prosecute these criminals. Which leaves us with the most important question: why is it not happening?

The only answer I can come up with is that the state needs to protect its own legitimacy, irrespective of political colors or any transgression, corruption, even crimes.

Lavrentiy Beria, probably the worst of the Soviet communist scumbags, was responsible for the elimination of 1.5-2 million innocent people. He personally executed hundreds, including over a hundred women whom he raped before killing them. Yet, when he was finally executed, it was not because of his crimes, but because he, and his knowledge, represented a very real danger to the lives of the rest of the scumbags in the communist party leadership. It was not justice, it was internecine murder.

Nuremberg was not about justice, it was a political statement and a strategic move to eliminate potential political opposition. Nazi politics was on trial, not war-crimes.

The lawfare against Donald Trump had nothing to do with whatever he did or did not; it was attempted political assassination. Lawfare is about power, not justice.

When politicians want to drag Putin or Netanyahu to the ICJ, that’s not about justice, but politics. In both cases, their adversaries are far more guilty of the same crimes than the accused are themselves.

The self-preservation instinct of the state cannot afford justice, as it must maintain the illusion of its infallibility.

The illusion that the law is above itself, meaning that it can break its own rules to protect itself and its reputation as the custodian of justice. It’s all for the greater good. In this perception, any attack on the agents of the state and its institutions are seen as an attack on the state itself that will weaken its legitimacy. The legitimacy of the state must be absolute, we cannot allow its reputation to be tarnished by some bad actors.

This is a conundrum I cannot see the way out of. I would like to believe that such self policing, the weeding out of corruption and bad actors could increase respect for the system, but this is clearly not the way the system sees itself. I am not quite comfortable with this anthropomorphizing of the state, but the tendency is so universal, that I have no other way to explain it.

The gravest injustice is protecting injustice itself, but waiting for justice for the crimes of the state is like watching Buñuel’s Exterminating Angel.

John Adams said that

"Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other"

I am afraid, that the whole Western civilization became that ‘any other’.

Hollywood is not known for its ability to understand Russian, but this movie comes very close. It is a hilarious parody of the totalitarian leadership.
