    I’ve been reading Instapundit for years, and going to his site is like sitting down with an old and trusted friend.  Thank you for this podcast Dave.

    Great interview.  I would rather the sword was released.   Too many secrets. Too many lies.

    TY.

    Me too. The only justification worthy of not releasing now is timing for 2018.

    He mentioned that if the oppo is worried they’re sure not acting like it.

    I wonder if they consider themselves “made men” and untouchable.

    I maintain that if Trump goes under and Obama/Clinton go unpunished in some fashion that our country is going to blow a cork.

    Agree.  Drop the sword, open the can, cut the knot, and any other metaphor you can think of.  They’re flirting with a basic breakdown of the system.  If they can so blatantly break the law with no consequence, they can’t expect anyone else to obey.

    Or give up.  Electing Trump was a blown cork.  Cut the knot.  When in doubt do the right thing.  If he cuts the knot we might be able to sweep places clean by changing the civil service act or avoid violating the civil act and hence endless law suits by massive suspension for cause.  SOP isn’t an option.

    Maybe I’m just overlooking the obvious, but is there any way to download this, rather than just stream it?
