Gingrich: The FBI Has “Declared War” On Americans

“This is a direct threat to freedom. And if it is allowed to stand, it is the end of the constitutional order, crossing the Rubicon.

“Calista and I actually went once to the Rubicon, which is a very tiny creek, but it was the symbolic border of Rome.

“And to cross the Rubicon with an armed force was to destroy the Constitution and Caesar, who had been faced with opponents who very much like the current Justice Department, were determined to kill him.

“And he tried to offer them a deal, and they said no, that they would not guarantee his life. And so he brought his army across the Rubicon, basically destroyed the Constitution.

“Last night – I’m certain with the attorney general’s knowledge, probably with the White House’s knowledge – the FBI crossed a Rubicon and declared war on the American people at such a level and with such total dishonesty.

“Not on Hunter Biden, not on Hillary Clinton. Hillary Clinton, by the way, had over a hundred secret documents on a server at her home.

“You never saw the FBI raid her house. You really are now seeing the ugly face of a tyranny. And the left is so desperate, so frightened.” – Newt Gingrich, this afternoon on Charlie Kirk’s podcast.

As you may know, Julius Caesar’s crossing of the Rubicon resulted in a civil war that ended with him becoming dictator for life, something Trump has openly mused about. Gingrich has the roles reversed in his telling, but his analogy is ironically apt.
