Twitchy ^ | 8-3-2017 | Doug P.

The government watchdog organization Judicial Watch has worked to get more information from the federal government about Bill Clinton’s shady meeting with then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch on an airport tarmac in Arizona. The Justice Department has released talking points developed by the Obama administration, except much of the material is redacted:

If everybody is to believe the Team Clinton and Loretta Lynch explanation, what would there be to redact?

How can talking about grandchildren count as "deliberative process?" And Bill Clinton wasn't a government employee. https://twitter.com/dcexaminer/status/893129602620588032  … 11:22 AM - Aug 3, 2017

A rumor:

Paul Ryan was also on the plane.

No, I can’t confirm that.

Oh, they will be able to claim it due to grandbabies being “minors.” But it’s a stretch since that should only cover the names.

I can’t remember all the details but:

Bill was there at the negotiation representing Hillary’s impending Imperial Reign and Ryan was there representing the Establishment GOP.

There were basically horse-trading pre-Election for what the Dems were going to keep and what the GOP would be given and Lynch somehow was moderating/mediating, whatever.

Like trading camels or rugs, or whatever.

Super Banana Republic style.

We can get a transcript between Trump and heads of state, but not Bill & Lynch about “grandkids”.

Yes, I heard something about that, too.

That he, the pilot, had offered himself up as a witness that there was some OTHER hot-stuff about the plane that hadn’t yet been disclosed.

And that he may have been Seth Rich’ed.

I’ll tell you something funny about Japan:

They’re very well-read, know lots and lots of stuff but there’s a puzzling anomaly:

With a surprising number of pretty educated people if you ask them who the Prime Minister is, they sometimes do NOT know. Or they’ll name the previous guy or the guy before that.

At first I considered it puzzling and then pitiful.

Much much later I figured it out —it doesn’t really MATTER who the Prime Minister is cuz in the end the ones REALLY running the country are the experts in the bureacracy:

Elections are sort of like Kabuki, where to this day in the audience are professional audience members whose job it is to laugh or scoff at the proper times, the better that others will know when to do so.

Sort of like a TV laugh-track for Three’s Company, or Hollywood Squares, or whatever.

And when I heard the rumors about who ELSE was at the Tarmac Lear Jet Meeting, I suddenly worried:

“Is the USA becoming the same way..?”

And when I see more and more the trouble Trump is having getting his hands on the real levers of power and how extravagantly comfortable his subordinates are about leaking, or talking about assassination, my feelings of foreboding grow.

Are we a secretly occupied country..?

Secret only to those too frightened to open their eyes.

If the Kennedy assassination cover-up didn’t do it what will?

How did the man who engineered the cover-up eventually end up as president? (for an admittedly short time)

See post #9. I think gaijin nailed it. We’ve been a secretly occupied country for decades and now the secret’s out there.

Why doesn’t Trump just direct that the transcript be released without redactions?

I suspect they really did talk about Lynch's gran'babies:"Now, Lo-retta, I know you've got gran'babies, like me, and I'll bet you want 'em to grow up with kneecaps. Am I right? Ha ha."
