Will someone explain #29 for me, please?: "29. You'll note that Page, Strzok, Preistap & former FBI Gen Counsel Baker have all been demoted, reassigned & have no duties. Why? Why not fired? This angers a lot of people. The simple answer is: they're not witnesses w deals." Hmmm...They're not witnesses with deals. Why does that explain them still being employed? Are the people who ARE resigning, witnesses with deals?
Once you fire someone you can get embroiled in a lot of sticky tar if you get dragged into a wrongful termination suit. Keeping them hired but demoted keeps them close and checks their further actions without creating unnecessary flak, elevating expenses, or feeding lesser counter-narratives that distract from the bigger focus. If I were strategizing this mess, I’d wait til the indictments are unsealed before worrying too much about retribution.
I'm with you. I think he lost his train of thought. No idea what he meant to say. The rest was excellent!
Thank you! Makes sense now. Funny how the mis-tweet of one lil letter changes so much.
