Park, just finished reading (what a page turner) Robert Kim Henderson’s new book ‘Troubled’ last night. Can’t help but think of this former Air Force Airman who somehow pulled himself up from a no/little family childhood situation to attend Yale/Cambridge and now call-out of ‘luxury beliefs’ of upper classes he saw, including those held by cheerleaders for this other AF member who sadly, self immolated perhaps at the alter of these ‘status’ beliefs.
A stark juxtaposition.
Feels like there’s a strong through-line between what Mike Benz has to say about CIA/MIC turning its focus on USA domestic population, Y2020 vote (pre censoring any negative posts about mail in voting during Covid) in part to keep a POTUS installed, who remains positive to continue Ukraine funding — and the CIA deep involvement in Ukraine (in opposition to Russia) in years prior to a Populist gaining the WH. The road to ‘suspending the will of voters’ perhaps paved w/ good intentions. To me though, the ends do not justify the means.
I surmise the current actions by the FBI taken against Alexander Smirnov to be part of an effort by the Intelligence Community to be a.) an effort to support their earlier stated determination they all pronounced in that letter 51 one of them signed claiming Hunter’s laptop is a Russian disinformation plot. In other words, an attempt to “cover their humiliated asses”.
Thus, b.) to instill a kind of “reasonable doubt” around the entirety of the laptop, in order to discredit the Republican investigation against the Biden Crime Family.
But by doing this, the message they send to all and any future informants by burning one of their own informant assets, is that they are never to be trusted, and are literally willing to burn their whole house down in order to save themselves.
Your “Big Story” article on the Bushnell suicide was simply extraordinary, and of TRUE Pulitzer caliber, ( not the fake ones they hand out like M&M’s).
An Absolutely stunning and profound articulation of that horrid event.
The Back Pages are must reading for anyone interested in the Arabist mentality that reigns in the CIA

CIA has always been and will always be anti Semitic. Left wing ideologies is what unites all the Jew haters.
And yes, fascism is a far left ideology.

And Cornell West, Jill Stein, and countless progressives cheer this on. Pathetic and insane.
Your reporting had deteriorated greatly and your anti-Biden bias has grown tremendously. No more, Good bye. I quill find more objective news sources.
