That would have, I think, implications diplomatically for U.S. standing abroad. And I could see there being a knife fight within the national security community about trying to redact the most damning evidence. And so this is really one of the first litmus tests about how serious the Trump administration is about cleaning up the agencies in terms of transparency for past malfeasance.

It's easy to go after things like Crossfire Hurricane or times when Trump himself was personally attacked. But they've been serious about cleaning up the personnel side. They're in the process of firing or offering golden handcuffs to The CIA, they've decimated the staff at USAID. So I think they mean business, but it's a question about whether or not they can get it done.

I mean, it's sort of it's interesting how these things line up and how they're both coming to a head simultaneously with these attempted disclosures, because, you know, the Kennedy assassination was in 63. The Epstein story really goes back to the 1980s, not too long after after, you know, the the JFK assassination and aftermath. And they both involve this overworld-underworld connection.

You had the Teamsters that were alleged to have had a role in it. You had the fight with the unions. The unions play a really interesting role in statecraft because...

We have people, instead of making sure the trains run on time, They're walking out of the hospitals. They're walking out of the, you know, the state run media organizations. They're walking out of daycare.
