From Protecting Epstein to Killing Citizens: How Federal Power Learned It Was Untouchable (1/25/26)

At its core, this hypocrisy dovetails perfectly with the Epstein coverup because it reveals the same moral collapse that allows powerful institutions to operate without accountability while their defenders selectively invoke “law and order” only when it protects the state. The same voices who excuse a federal agent killing a legally armed citizen now are often the same ones who waved away the sweetheart plea deal, the sealed records, the missing cameras, the sleeping guards, and the vanishing evidence in Epstein’s case. In both situations, the pattern is identical: when the federal government abuses power against ordinary people, the so-called defenders of liberty suddenly become apologists for authority. When Epstein was protected, the system closed ranks, hid documents, misled courts, silenced victims, and insulated its own. When Pretti was killed, the instinct was the same: suppress oversight, shape the narrative, block investigators, and demand blind trust in federal actors. The Constitution becomes decorative when power is at stake, and rights become conditional when they interfere with institutional protection. In both cases, the message is unmistakable: there are citizens, and then there are subjects, and the line between them is drawn by who the government decides to protect and who it decides to sacrifice.


This is what an out-of-control federal government actually looks like, not tanks in the streets, but bureaucracies that operate above consequence while their defenders cheer them on in the name of security, borders, or order. Epstein was not an accident of justice, he was a product of a system that learned it could hide crimes, bury evidence, intimidate oversight, and survive public outrage if it waited long enough. The shooting of Pretti shows that the same machinery now feels comfortable exercising lethal force first and explaining later, knowing that a loyal political audience will rationalize anything so long as the target is politically convenient. This is how republics rot, not in dramatic coups, but in quiet normalization of unchecked power. When people who once screamed about jack-booted thugs now celebrate federal executions, they are not defending the Constitution, they are surrendering it. The Epstein coverup and this killing are not separate scandals, they are symptoms of the same disease: a federal apparatus that no longer fears oversight, no longer respects limits, and no longer believes the Constitution applies when its own authority is on the line.
