There's been hardly the mention of the simple ethics of the information being brought to light. A set of
emails that display an hypocrisy of persons who seek high office and even higher benefits, have been
leaked by an unknown entity and the information revealed shows a wide-scale corruption in a system
that is meant to serve those who're are the butt of the hypocrisy.
Yet, the media focus is on who brought the messages out into the open and the narrative is kept there
instead of discussing the double standards in political life. The brazenness of it!
I would suggest that the news outlets that are staying clear of talking about the email contents are
either too stupid to see the bigger picture or don't wish to for reasons that may be less than noble.
In my view, it seems like a pantomime, a mocking pompous display of a group that cares little for
the masses they pretend to serve. The word 'rigged' doesn't cover it.
Precisely. It's a case of the Progressives doing what they do best - sleight of hand and misdirection. They are saying "oh look - a butterfly!" whilst picking our pockets and thieving our liberty.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
