这小句怎么理解：The silence over this disgraceful matter?
整个文段：The silence over this disgraceful matter — and many others like it,including
the dead hand in the empty suit posing as US Attorney General — indicates that
not only is the rule of law extinct in this country,but so are public figures
of principle and credible news organs.Nobody has made a noise about it.
Anything goes,nothing matters,and nobody cares.So,the objection to it has to
come from outside the authorized channels.And the consequences will mount
outside the fortress of lies that the establishment has become.
