Do you think that if the tables were turned, and a DIM congresscritter had similar information on a sitting Republican president, there would have been any hesitation to release it?
To your point, had the tables been turned, and this was a RAT congresscritter would have been moot. The story would have been front page on every paper every day, lead story on the Drive-by media until the Republican sitting president was drummed out of office.
There is simply no room for any disent now....I expect the gulag's to start opening any day now.
How do people get to this clandestine Archipelago? Hour by hour planes fly there,ships steer their course there, and trains thunder off to it—but all with nary a mark on them to tell of their destination. And at ticket windows or at travel bureaus for Soviet or foreign tourists the employees would be astounded if you were to ask for a ticket to go there. They know nothing and they've never heard of the Archipelago as a whole or of any one of its innumerable islands.
Those who go to the Archipelago to administer it get there via the training schools of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Those who go there to be guards are conscripted via the military conscription centers.
And those who, like you and me, dear reader, go there to die, must get there solely and compulsorily via arrest.
Arrest! Need it be said that it is a breaking point in your life, a bolt of lightning which has scored a direct hit on you? That it is an unassimilable spiritual earthquake not every person can cope with...

Worth re-reading for it is OUR future.
