   For Nixon, there was Woodward.   
   For Clinton, Ken Star.   
   Who will it be for our current kerfuffle? Who will stand up? Democracy Forward   
   has filed a barrage of FOIA requests with a request to expedite.   
   When I was in the biz, a FOIA requests was a bastard. I had to search all my   
   files for any mention of a person I never even heard of. I had a lot of files   
   at my disposal. I had a deadline of 3 days and it took all 24 hours of the 3   
   workdays to search and sign my name on the request. TBH, I used the time to    
   have my subordinates shred the outdated classified information in the process.   
   I have a few questions about the "Epstein Files":   
   1) Why were/are they classified. I think this may be a miss-reporting due to   
   the inability for people not subjected to AR 380-5, or the other services'   
   guides to handling classified information, to understand what the   
   classifications are and what they mean. The classifications are few and easy   
   to understand. They should learn it before they mark something as classified.   
      
   If they are legitimately classified, the reason they are classified would be   
   more interesting than what is contained in them. It could be as simple as the   
   method with which the information was collected. If intelligence assets were   
   used, likely, they will never be released.    
   2) Has Trump raped minors? As much as his affiliation with Epstein would   
   suggest this, I find this hard to digest. Him fucking everyone's wives I could   
   believe. But that would be as new news as Clinton screwing anyone. At this   
   point in time, I'm inclined to believe that H. Clinton stood by her man, not    
   because of the political power, but because it was no surprise.    
   I wonder if Foster's "suicide" on the Whitehouse lawn is connected into this m   
   somehow...but I diverge.   
   No, I think Trump's involvement in the Files would be more of a financial   
   nature. Something like money laundering or hidden off-shore accounts enabling   
   tax-evasion. I just don't see Trump being a pedofile. A philanderer, yes. But   
   not with children.   
   3) Melania knows. But, what does she know? Her silence is deafening. She knows   
   where the bodies are buried (figuratively.) Whatever Trump is hiding has   
   happened since she entered his life. That gives a tight timeframe to   
   investigate as she and he became an item in the late 90s (I think). The   
   Trump/Epstein breakup happened in either 2004 or 2008. So, about a decade of   
   interactions between the two should be looked at. If I'm not wrong, the NY   
   financial investigations of Trump and Trump Corp. took place during that time.   
   4) Which brings me onto the next one. IF the illegal activity took place   
   during the said time-frame, Letitia James has the dirt. She successfully   
   prosecuted him and company based on information from that time period.   
   It will be interesting to see what comes out in the upcoming months. I'm just   
   glad that I've been reduced to decaf and as such greatly reducing my   
   consumption of coffee. A 50% tariff on my previous favorite drink is gonna   
   make that baby singe when I buy the coffee for my wife.   
   I think I'll just drink water..like out of the toilet -- Idiocracy.
