Yep. People’s retirements are doing well. Still not a fan of tariffs. Prefer free trade. But, it wasn’t free trade anyway, and maybe the tariffs will be a way to reset and get there. That’s why I’m semi okay with them for a bit to see.

I’m not really sure if sexual assault of a child would be a state crime or federal in this scenario. Interesting question. You keep mentioning Ghislaine Maxwell. Did you look up her father, his death & official funeral? I’ve been dropping hints. Quite a murky story. @Reagan post with email attachments about 9/11 meetings add another layer.

Someone should create a meme. Messie & Moronna They’re tainting any possible jury pool so bad, you’d think it was planned. They’d have to pick a jury pool from another planet even if they were to ever bring charges against anyone. These members of Congress saying someone’s going to jail is a joke. Congress doesn’t have the authority to do anything but refer to—who?—DOJ for criminal prosecution. Duhhh…

JFK - Have at it. Short read comparatively. Only 80,000 pages. [Hidden Content]

lol I thought about that the other day. They’re still reviewing those files, and have to wait a few more years to release the last I think I read. I’m waiting on the UFO’s.

Have you only been focused on the disturbing abuse issues, or have you looked deeper? Do you know anything about Ghislaine Maxwell's father? Out of curiosity, are you old enough to remember anything about Iran-Contra?

Question. Do you think there would be any more accountability under another Administration? How about a divided government? I know campaign promises were made. But, I’ve told you about campaign promises. Epstein was around long before 2007.

Yep. Pretty sad. No one will leave feeling good about any of this. Long smelly trail.

Now, let him rush to explain his name in the files like he thought it was so unimportant for others just to be listed. Let him be on the other end of ‘gotcha.’ He and Khanna were still in grade school when Epstein was already involved. Epstein’s name was known way back in the day. He bought SAT for goodness sake. Rush in based on emotion at your own peril, and I STILL haven’t heard of any evidence DOJ can use to actually prosecute anyone. This will end—as I’ve said—with a very low whimper, people will get a glimpse into how questionable some of the ‘so-called elites’ behavior is if they didn’t already know, and the public won’t be satisfied.

Someone’s heroes Massie & Khanna sure poached the goat on their big reveal grandstanding. Putting four guys from a police line-up in line for death threats. Great work guys. I guess DOJ aren’t the only inept people involved in this sordid episode. [Hidden Content]

Read up on Barak (not THAT Barak.) Former Israeli PM. Interesting substack article. [Hidden Content]

Look up Jean-Luc Brunel's death @Reagan @DCT

Wouldn't matter. Just like much of the rest, all that's there is innuendo and smear. I don't see anything coming close to proof of guilt of something. From their own political flyer (near the bottom, of course): Wexner hired Epstein to manage his personal finances in the 1980s. Wexner cut ties with Epstein following Epstein’s 2007 Florida indictment.

What I keep saying is, there’s a big difference in someone being named, someone even documented as being there, and being able to prove a criminal case without a doubt when it would probably revert to a circumstantial he said/she said against folks who have the ability to hire the best lawyers on the planet—if you could even get them to trial. There’s no way you’re getting the foreign actors here to stand trial. That’s why I keep saying shame and ostracism are probably what we’ll get.

It’s entirely probable that’s why they’re logging. But, the reason doesn’t really matter. ALL SCIF activity is tracked and logged. That’s the nature of a SCIF. As the Head of the Dept. owning the information, she would have access.

That I can’t say. All I can say is everything done in a SCIF is tracked and recorded. This is done for security purposes. I didn’t see the interview y’all say Bondi bombed out on other than snippets here. I DID see the news article with the photo of the notes on Jayapal. They weren’t anything special, and would be typical tracking. I can understand why Bondi would have notes on what everyone viewed. I wouldn’t necessarily jump to a malicious conclusion. She may have merely wanted to be prepared, since she knew it was going to be a ‘gotcha’ meeting. How many meetings like that have you seen where the person being grilled couldn’t give an answer because they were caught unaware of what they may be asked? (They were set up for the visuals & press.) Like I say, I doubt it was nefarious. She knows her job is on the line and wanted to be prepared. But, that’s just my take.

Any number of Intelligence officials. But, it’s typically monitored by 2 guards & what used to be called an OMR supervisor. Not sure what they’re called now. Those able to see the data being viewed depend on what the data is. Different monitors and approvals for different departments. I’d think DOJ docs would be on the lower security spectrum end. Probably remotely monitored by FBI for homeland security stuff that doesn’t involve out of state actors or defense. If documents aren’t redacted that involve foreign assets, or foreign ‘persons of importance’, CIA will step in. Shouldn’t be any DoD issues. EDIT ADD: The Administration should have made this clear to all before they were granted access. If they didn’t, that’s a failure of communication of protocol on their part. Many of these Congress people have probably never been in a SCIF before, or had access to classified material. SCIF’s are typically used for intelligence or defense issues.

This isn’t news. Any and all activity in a SCIF is documented and tracked. Always has been. This is just another big hubbub about standard protocol that—if not aware of said protocols—you’d find concerning. Just about every breath taken, and every temperature variation is tracked in a SCIF. The monitoring personnel can tell if you passed gas & when. Just info for all using your post to tag onto.

I’m sorry you’re disgusted. Many of us feel the same. But, I warned you that you weren’t going to get the satisfaction you crave. There was never any way that a sizeable number of perps (foreign nationals) were going to face any kind of criminal charges in U.S. courts, or elsewhere. There won’t be any charges against Americans either after all of this theater. Shaming and ostracizing is the best you’ll get. Maybe some of them will decide to take things into their own hands. Who knows? Just keep your eye on the ball. There are only 3 key things we should wish from our government. National Security from foreign adversaries to protect our way of life. Freedom from government intrusion into our personal liberties. Manage our money wisely and frugally. Any other campaign promise is just bunk. Look for candidates that promise those basic things. They’re hard enough.

Have for decades. No change here. Why do you think I want limited government? Every time I hear someone say they want the government to do something, I cringe. Remember Reagan’s Nine Scariest Words.

Gary Johnson got 4.5 million votes (3.3%) in 2016, even though he wasn't given security information or even a chance to debate. He wasn't perfect by any means, and I didn't agree with some of the Libertarian Party platform at the time. I still don't. But, I voted for him because I felt he was a better fit for my personal priorities than Clinton (I was an ABC--Anyone But Clinton--voter because of the Benghazi similarity) or Trump. Of course, I also supported Ron Paul and Ross Perot. I had high hopes for Mitt Romney. He was caught on a hot mike telling the truth, and got burned. He still--IMHO--would have been an excellent POTUS. The current primary system is giving us horrible candidates.

I can't say I blame you. I spent many years doing many things for this government of ours. It left me hanging out on my own on more than one occasion. I chose not to vote. You bringing up Benghazi hit close to home for me for a somewhat similar situation in the 80's. There was plenty of denial then as well. Now, I champion personal liberty and fiscal sanity. I'm not receiving either, and neither is anyone else. Regardless of Party. But, I can still hope. Maybe, there's still a chance we can get our government back to what was intended.

I'm comparing campaign promises. Can the redaction be proven to be a willful crime? I'm not disagreeing with your anger, nor am I condoning the behavior.
