FLEAS

My father always said, “When you lay down with dogs, you get up with fleas.” There is solid truth in that old aphorism. It was visibly on display last night when Fox News Sean Hannity showed just how flea infested he has become, by orchestrating a program with other flea invested Trump cronies, to smear, denigrate, and tarnish the reputation of honorable men like Bob Mueller, Rod Rosenstein, and James Comey, and their professional associates who have stood up for the rule of law against a lecherous, lurid, and lame chief executive who will stop at nothing in his quest to pay off those who have dirt on him, silence his critics, and continue his unbridled narcissistic reign of shame.
I am sure the FBI agents who conducted the lawfully authorized raid on Mr. Trump’s lawyer/fixer/crony were not thrilled to be there to dig into the morass of misdeeds and misrepresentation that follow this President. Who wants to have to investigate the claims of salacious conduct by porn stars, playboy bunnies, and N.Y. doormen?
FBI agents are an honorable lot. They put the law and the country above themselves. They investigate crimes. They keep us safe. They are there for all of us in our time of need. They do not deserve to be trashed by tabloid tv hosts and sullied by soiled politicians like Newt Gingrich. They are men of honor who serve this country with dedication and distinction.
They are heroes who history will look kindly upon , once this band of two bit boorish bandits find their rightful place in the dustbin of history.
The “Mueller crime family” diagrams used by Mr. Hannity to tar and feather law enforcement personnel are tools being used by fools to protect against the revelation of their own perfidy. They label others for behavior that they themselves engage in. They are projecting. They are pretending to be patriots.
They are as phony as three dollar bills, and unworthy of serious consideration. They are the sideshows in a circus carnival being manipulated by an unprincipled and desperate ringmaster, whose ignominious demise awaits him. Sooner, hopefully rather than later, the truth shall set us all free.
