So my question is simple: Will there ever be justice served for politicians?

So dating all the way back to Bill Clinton's impeachment hearings where he was found not guilty; he openly lied in a Congressional hearing, then a few hours later admitted in a public address to what he did. The Hillary campaign two years ago, she was the center of a long and drawn out (in my opinion politically motivated) investigation that dug deep into her, her staff and law firms that used funds illegally. The FBI releases a public statement that she broke around 12 federal laws and recommends no charges be pressed. Now the sitting president is under investigation (again a political witch hunt) for misuse of funds; his staff for possibly contacting foreign agents during the campaign; Hillary, Obama, and Holder for Uranium one scandal. I know the investigation is still ongoing but I'm not holding my breath that justice will be served.

I'm sure there are more, the list just keeps getting longer and longer but no one suffers but us the American people. And it seems like the DOJ for the last 12+ years has been nothing but a political stooge for the party in power. What do you guys think?

Yeah I completely agree and have thought about this quite a bit.
In the end there's really nothing I can do about it, and it just pisses me off, so I try not to dwell on it too much.
