A good reporter, no any reporter, would pursue what you bring up.
Who is this guy? Is he one of us? Don’t think so and it would be easy to find out.
The fact that Tapper is trying to squelch this, makes you wonder how deep this ass hat is in with the FBI and other Anti Trumpers.
It’s called deep capture. That’s another conspiracy theory but one that I happen to believe in.
It started with an economic concept called regulatory capture. To put it simply, the regulators ultimately end up getting cozy with the people they regulate. It’s sort of human nature. They work together and get to know each other. They sometimes change jobs - the regulated becomes a regulator and vice versa. You see this all the time with FDA people going to work at biotech, and then back. Or with banking - always the people hired at the fed or treasury come from big banks. Same pretty much for any industry. So the interests of the regulators and the regulated end up in close alignment.
Take that one step further and it’s deep capture. The entire system is captured by the interests of individuals who are beholden to large multinational enterprises. So politics, bureaucracies, media, industry, finance, government contractors - it’s all them against everyone else.
