The lesson is that "justice delayed is justice denied". [View all]

Justice delayed has ended up with a crime syndicate running our government.

Special Counsel Jack Smith is due to release his report soon and it will be meaningless.

I fear that the damage to our justice system is irreparable and permanent. The cornerstone or our democracy is gone. It will be replaced by something more like a tyranny.

Thanks to a rabid MAGA base and a sophisticated propaganda strategy, the damage has been done.

Will we ever recover from this disaster?

Only time will tell.
