The Law matters throughout Western civilization, but it is especially cherished in, and central to, American public life. Courtrooms are the arena for America’s great spiritual dramas, because the origin story of the United States depends on mythology that places the Law as sovereign over the King. Indeed, this is the whole reason America exists in the first place. From Roe v. Wade to the O.J. Simpson acquittal, legal arguments, spectacles, rituals and verdicts punctuate the Republic’s evolving social attitudes and lay down examples for citizens follow. In a sense, trial verdicts are how America learns about itself. Court cases are sacred rituals where men are held to their word—and, of course, to statute.

At least, that’s the theory. In reality, Washington, D.C., or the swamp, is a system of deliberate obfuscation and control. The swamp is the clutch of secrets the ruling classes keep to themselves—the arcane mysteries and rites of initiation that insulate the elites from the consequences of their actions, and which preserve their power. Learning the ropes means learning how, for instance, to use procedural trickery to escape justice—or to lock in the judge you want.

When you have the full arsenal of the swamp at your disposal, you can nail anyone. Try to imagine if the F.B.I. got hold of every text and email you’ve ever sent, and whether or not they could, in the worst possible faith, construct an argument that you’re a threatener, a brute and a barbarian and then hype up some ludicrous charge. Of course they could. With enough determination, time and resources—like the double-digit millions burned by the Mueller team—you can put just about anyone away, no matter how absurd or trivial the list of alleged offenses.

On November 14, 2018, the Daily Caller’s Chuck Ross released a chain of documents that proved beyond doubt that Randy Credico was Roger Stone’s source for information about the contents and timing of the WikiLeaks drop. “New text messages show that Roger Stone learned about WikiLeaks’ plans to release Clinton-related emails through Randy Credico,” wrote Ross. “The messages, which Stone’s lawyers extracted from an old phone on Wednesday, back up Stone’s claims about how he learned of WikiLeaks’ plans. The messages severely undercut Credico’s denials that he was a source for Stone.”

“Credico has adamantly denied being Stone’s conduit,” Ross continued, “Saying in numerous interviews over the past year that Stone was lying. Credico also told C.N.N. that his testimony to Mueller’s grand jury on Sept. 7 was consistent with his public denials about being Stone’s source. Pointing to the text messages, Stone asserts that Credico ‘lied to the grand jury’ if he indeed denied being Stone’s contact to Assange.” The Mueller grand jury had heard from two other sources, including filmmaker David Lugo, that Credico admitted to being Stone’s point of contact.

And yet, at trial, the prosecution insisted that Credico was not Stone’s source, once again trying to establish Stone as a prevaricator and a deceiver. Instead, prosecutors Jonathan Kravis and Aaron Zelinsky pointed the
