Murder of a Rebel Nation, Episode 02: Most Ludicrous DOJ Lies - Cui Bono?

In retrospect, the outcome of the cops-and-robbers drama that played out in the wake of the global financial crisis looks so manifestly predictable now: on the one hand, you had clear-cut criminal fraud perpetrated by Wall Street banks on a colossal scale (a fact freely admitted to by Alan Greenspan in Episode 01 and ratified in this episode by Senator Ted Kaufman), while on the other (and far heavier) hand you had a Department of Justice headed by a team fromâ€¦ Wall Streetâ€™s go-to law firm from Washington, D.C. From the point of view of someone in 2022, the only thing more obvious than the rigged outcome hereâ€”the robbers won because the â€œcopsâ€ at the DOJ were the robbersâ€™ attorneys, DUHâ€”was the fact that the deck at the DOJ was stacked to produce exactly that result.

That much is obvious these days, so massively has graft and corruption not only grown, but come to be openly celebrated by the thoroughly mediocre public figures who pollute seemingly every political scene (at least in the west), notable only for their mindlessly unflinching obedience to corporate interests. Looking back to the wake of the GFC, itâ€™s like OF COURSE no big Wall Street banks or bankers were prosecutedâ€”how could we have been so foolish to think otherwise?

But if you go back just a few years, things werenâ€™t so clear.

Even as late December 2012, near the end of Obamaâ€™s first term, the prosecutorial outcome at least seemed like it was still up for grabs. Many people including myself clung to the belief that that the rule of law still had a pulse in the U.S., and that even if it was unlikely, there still existed at least the chance that the DOJ would indict at least one bank executive from Wall Street.

The mediaâ€™s inevitable queryâ€”â€œwhy doesnâ€™t the DOJ prosecute Wall Street?â€â€”greatly advanced the illusion that the DOJ might yet prosecute Wall Street.

That all changed in January 2013, for good, when an actual journalist (not an overpaid shill) showed up on TV one night with a flamethrower and in 53 minutes absolutely torched every single element of (and assumption bundled up into) the mediaâ€™s cops-and-robbers narrative that had prevailed up until that point, torched it all down into a tidy little pile of fine ashen dust.

That night, day two of Obamaâ€™s second term, revealed the horrifying truth about what had been going on inside the United States Justice Department: it had spent the last four years telling enormous lies about why it wasnâ€™t prosecuting Wall Street. The simple truth was breathtakingly uglyâ€¦.
