I think it's not only malignant but too deeply entrenched. IIRC, some parts of JFK's assassination records remain sealed and are not to be unsealed until the 75th anniversary of his death.

It’s malignant and malevolent.

Makes you wonder if there is the shadow govt
scenario. Who really runs the show, makes
the deals, seals records?

(tin foil just appeared magically .. ;)

But, remember that BHussein thru the Chicago
Trib got a judge to unseal the “sealed” records
of his senatorial opponent’s divorce .. and poof!
Candidate withdrew.

And that IS where many of today’s ills emanate:
JUDGES! Remember that one for FReepac.
