We're supposed to be reassured that the FBI agents who raided the offices and home of Donald Trump's personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, were, in Cohen's words, "Courteous" and "Respectful."
Since the day Trump entered political life, liberals, Democratic activists and media pundits have issued ominous warnings about the coming authoritarianism.
FBI Director James Comey was pressing ahead with his own investigation - right until he was fired by Trump.
Paul Manafort was indicted for alleged financial chicanery that had nothing to do with Russian hacking and which involved business practices that occurred years before he met Donald Trump.
Were those indictments a cover story for a prosecutor actually hell-bent on nailing Trump? Putin is unlikely to extradite those Russians.
Today's ACLU doesn't defend Donald Trump from prosecutorial overreach.
OK, but what about the FBI's attacks on Trump's right to legal counsel - and, by implication, the rights of the rest of us? Because if it can do it to his lawyer, it can do it to yours.
