DoJ lies all the time. The judges know this. The system does not exist to police itself.

Those are two different systems, so it's not clear what you are trying to say, other than, like, burn it all down man.
In the public courts, DoJ lies with impunity. It's very difficult for defendants to escape with their freedom; holding federal prosecutors responsible for their misdeeds is the last thing on their minds.

In the FISA courts, DoJ lies with impunity. The judges occasionally throw a warrant back and tell them to try harder, but mostly DGAF, because no publicity. Now there is publicity, and suddenly a judge cares...

I am an anarchist, so I oppose all arbitrary authority. If burning will solve these problems, then let's burn. If not, let's do something else.
