They just got together to talk about their grandchildren.
AUGUST 2016 : (RUSSIA-RELATED DISCUSSIONS AMONG 4 HIGH OFFICIALS IN THE WH SITUATION ROOM BEGIN IN AUGUST ; THE VIDEO FEED IS CAREFULLY SHUT OFF -— See COMEY)
Psych!
Right.....
What is that old saying? “They dost protest too much”. Something like that.
I don’t think that is going to fly especially since a WITNESS to the meeting is an INFORMANT. My money is on Petraeus especially after what they did to him. I bet there are a lot of brown stained britches these days.
Leave it to Disney/ABC to come up with the stupidest defense possible.
Infowars, on Jan. 24 had a photograph of Newt Gingrich in a magazine, I believe in March 1916, and was quoted as saying in the article that the ‘insiders’ in the deep state did not like Trump because he was not a member of their secret society. This was their wording. Now how could two disparate references to the same thing be simple coincidence.

FWIW, NYT has a story with the “context” of this text.
“Are you even going to give out your calendars? Seems kind of depressing. Maybe it should just be the first meeting of the secret society,”
The calendars supposedly refers to “Russia themed” calendars that had been bought to distribute to FBI agents and analysts working on the Russia investigation.
So with this “context”, the FBI group working on the Russia investigation turns into a secret society.
I don’t think that helps very much.

I think it was facetious.
Apparently, all of their texting was just in ‘jest’.... We were kidding the whole time. We don’t worship Hillary and hate Trump... Really... We were just joshing around.
I can hardly wait for these two ‘lovers’ to finally be brought before a congressional panel to testify.
The missing 18 minutes of Nixon tape was just a humorous monologue!
"Hey, let's take a break from fighting commies and muslim evil-doers to make up a joke about a Secret Society."
"Oh yes, lets do it!
That way if any right-wing zealots ever subpoena our perfectly innocent messages it will drive them bonkers!""What a hoot!"
"Wouldn't the media, like ABC, have fun making the right-wingers look like crazy paranoids with this one!"
It doesn’t matter if it was a joke - it describes a real, actual conspiracy that did happen.
The thing that makes jokes funny is the presence of an element of truth, so whether it was a joke is completely irrelevant to the fact that it reveals they were aware they were part of a seditious cabal with a specific membership.
Calendars for what? The coup attempt? To be distributed to the fellow plotters?
Perhaps it was depressing because it had a long lead time, and she wanted something sooner.
