It’s a good point about how the media whips stuff up. However, there’s also confirmation bias as well as cognitive dissounance-that has a tendency to produce emotional Heck No anger and rejection of truth.

Doing things in secret, and then telling about it-not cool. Isn’t that one of the things we are aggravated about? Clowns and the Govt doing crap and keeping it secret, in addition to the pure evil?

So far, we suspect with high probability that many of the resignations were due to deals. Likely we will not know what those deals were, although 70 years from now it may be declassified.

I suspect though that whatever becomes known, the punishment should be so horrific that NO ONE ever contemplates doing it again. Specifics, I have no clue except 60/40.

I agree completely, but obviously there are a lot of things being done secretly right now. I think the one thing that makes them less secret is Q. Those who care to look can at least get a glimpse of what’s happening. Going forward, the secrecy needs to stop.

I have a hard time reconciling “the ends justifies the means”. I hate it when the derps do it. So it would be hypocritical of me to approve of it when our side does it. I guess I can go with it so long as we are continually moving toward more and more openness. Perhaps the argument is that too much all at once is too painful, so the process must be a bit more gradual. Kind of like you don’t tell your kids about sex before they are old enough to understand.

re Snowybear post 213, Cletus post 190, Steven W. post 156:

How many times have we seen POTUS announce that he was going to speak on one topic and then swerve to another? Too many times for me to remember! I’m sure I’ll enjoy whatever this is, but I’m not holding my breath. Could be another head fake to get the derps to expend ammunition. Could be an entirely different topic.

Remember during the campaign when he called a press conference to tell us about 0vomit’s BC? Then he spent 30 seconds saying 0vomit was born here and 30 minutes telling us about his military endorsements. At the time, I was disappointed. But now I understand.

Whatever POTUS does today, I am confident it is part of the plan and will move us forward. So I will be prepared for something big, but won’t be let down if it seems to be a nothing burger. It WILL have a purpose whether immediately apparent or not.

Cheers!
