Chris, if you lived in the DC metro area for a few years you would be conditioned, and this would not surprise you at all. This is where I learned how that world works, in staff meetings. “After this meeting, get Steny on the phone for me.”

It’s a club. Occasionally you will find someone who understands inside there, but for the most part it’s like a different universe. In there, this woman is mainstream. When Clinton came in, all the real defense intelligence people got the boot. Guys I knew did four tours in Vietnam in the USMC, and then went to work for the agency in Laos or Cambodia. I got to know them because they got fired from there and were replaced by No Bueno types. Clinton was deeply involved with the agency when he was Governor of Arkansas. They used his state as their base for running drugs and munitions for the Contras. This is how he became President. Ask Bill Barr, he knows all about it. After that, these people have been in total control of the country, and this is most unfortunate.

How would one even write satire at this point? Is it possible? What level of genius level creativity must one possess to even think of anything which hasn’t already been done?
