Sometimes Democrats are bullied by Republicans into denouncing critical-thinking people who see through the morass of bureaucratic regulations and commit a minor transgression. I\u2019m talking about piling on FBI agents Peter Strzok and Lisa Page for criticizing then presidential candidate Donald Trump during the 2016 race. They exchanged text messages in which Trump was called an \u201cidiot,\u201d and more.<\/p>\n
Yes, in one sort of ideal world, it would be proper if FBI agents, and even all government employees, were thoroughly non-partisan in American politics. But like all rules, there is a need for exceptions when circumstances go outside the bounds of questionable behavior. In other words, when there is a threat that power will become too concentrated in the wrong hands and steps are taken towards undermining the fabric of our democracy, something must be done. It becomes reasonable for government agents to think about these issues and even to share them with one another and others. That\u2019s precisely what Strzok and Page did.<\/p>\n
