When A Country Cannot Protect Its Citizens And Devolves Into Degradation, It Cannot Last Long.

Was June 2015 the biggest news month of our generation?
I would argue it was right up there with 9/11 and Pearl Harbor.
Two stories broke this month that taken together or separately will have ramifications and reverberations every bit as momentous as the aftermath of Dec.7, 1941, and Sept. 11, 2001.
What are those two stories?
The first was the revelation of the greatest breach of national security in the history of the United States, when the identity of every single federal government employee – past and present – was permitted to fall into the hands of a hostile foreign power. It was the result of an epic failure by those in charge in Washington more than a skillful act of derring-do by China.
Staggering as it may seem, it means America no longer has any covert intelligence agents. They’ve all been compromised – CIA, NSA, DIA, you name it. Same is true with all military personnel, including our beloved and invaluable Special Forces units, whose protected identity can be a matter of life and death.
And then there are the some 32 million other, mostly civilian, federal employees. They now represent 32 million opportunities for America’s enemies to compromise, bribe, blackmail and turn.
Remember the outrage over the outing of one CIA agent named Valerie Plame? Multiply the danger and destructiveness by a factor of 32 million.
Yet, unlike the Valerie Plame incident, for which one high-ranking Bush administration figure actually went to jail, there’s been no hint or suggestion of accountability for this mother of all national security breakdowns.
Keep your eye on this.
Americans will be paying a price for this colossal breakdown for decades to come – if the nation can survive it that long.
The second monumental story of the month, of course, was the Supreme Court edict that marriage is no longer about the union of men and women.
It was hardly a surprise, given previous decisions by the activist court dominated by cultural anarchists, but it was shocking how quickly this absurd idea of redefining marriage captured the wicked imaginations of the country’s power elite and how fast average Americans capitulated in fear of being called “bigots” and “hatemongers” for standing up for marriage as it has always been known.
These two stories represent political and news earthquakes that happened within weeks of each other.
But what else do they have in common, if anything?
They have everything in common, because they both illustrate how pathetic Big Government is at handling any serious matter.
National security secrets? We would have been better off if we outsourced our vital national security secrets to Amazon. After warning America endlessly about the need for better cyber security, Washington apparently forgot to take its own advice. It left the back door open, the front door open and the keys in the mailbox.
How could anyone in his right mind ever consider the federal government as competent to handle matters of national security again?
And if Washington bureaucrats can’t guard national security secrets, should nine unaccountable men and women in black robes have the authority to rewrite the moral code written by the finger of God on stone tablets that came down from Mount Sinai with Moses?
Hmmmm. Let me see – Ruth Bader Ginsburg or hand of God? Elena Kagan or Moses?
It’s a bit of an understatement to say the federal government is broken.
It’s not just incompetent; it’s totally corrupt. It’s not just the Supreme Court that is unaccountable to the law and the people. It’s the entire government – one branch worse than the other.
That’s what I think was spectacular about June 2015.
The total breakdown of American government was on display. Yet still some people clamor to give more power and authority to Washington. Go figure.
