And to add, when we start getting into Ludlum spy novel territory like we are now most have no clue wtf is going on. I will guess at one thing, our secret services knew something was going down and were scrambling, probably for months, to reassure our allies that not just ours but their human intelligence sources were either safe or compromised. Fat Ass destroyed decades of diplomatic trust between us and the rest of the world, AND the fuckers who elected him are still hanging around, AND the threat that he could be elected again has compromised and caused even more decades of trust and damage there and in the dark corners of espionage.
I think our govt is trying to play it cool publicily, they have been since 2016. I really think shits really fucked up from a diplo/spy kinda angle and has been for a while.

2. the photos
3. the realization of the number and types of likely accomplices
4. social media in higher and higher gear
5. President Bidens speeches
I believe the deciding influential factor will be from within the Intelligence community.

(53,947 posts)It's a long slow process. Trump's idiotic OAN lawyer is the canary in the coal mine. Her submitting false statements on an affidavit is the most blatant crime in the batch. When she gets called to turn herself in, that's when you can start to queue up "Let The Bodies Hit The Floor"
