so - if I got this right...
The government (regardless of which party has had control of these 'files') has REPEATEDLY verified that victim info wil not be released, national security information would not be released, information that was part of an ongoing investigation would NOT be released.
Am I right so far?
Now, if this is true - IT.DOES.NOT.MATTER. what is released and reported on in the media - it is going NOWHERE
Clinton in a blue dress? no big deal
Trump hugging Maxwell? no big deal
Slick Willie in a hot tub? not big deal
Trump standing next to Epstein, surrounded by several women? no big deal
Royalty hugging an uncomfortable looking young lady? no big deal
E-mails about Bill Gates getting an STD from a Russian hooker? who cares
It's no big deal because released information just shows that the person isn't under investigation. (barring the cynical possibility that the government is just lying about it like they lie about everything else). NOTHING that gets released is going to be a smoking gun. Anything that we see in the news is part of the partisan trickle meant to distract from other shit going on.
NOTHING that CNN reports on is real. Even though they repeatedly message it as "the smoking gun"
Scandal is just scandal. It isn't actionable - it's only value is in how it can be used to manipulate the uninformed into whatever todays flavor of outrage might be.
