One of these fine days we're going to get back on audio. But in the meantime, I the Mentor have observed that it's recently unusual for us to be fixated on one topic in the shares base. But as if the documents case against Trump weren't so irreparably damaged enough, now the judge in the case appears likely to grant a "master" to review the classified documents that have been seized. The Heir sees it as highly unlikely that such a "master" would have clearance or even a need-to-know with the documents. The Heir's 90% sure it'll just be some ordinary Joe coming off the streets just happening to walk by the courthouse when the judge makes the decision. "Psst, hey buddy, wanna be the 'master' of classified documents you have no clearance to see whatsoever?" In the meantime, the Heir's heard about that one lady who got into a petty argument with another lady, and got in her car to try to mow down the other lady, and ended up killing an old man in the process, and he's having a hard time believing that the weaponized car case is completely disconnected from the documents case. He's observed how today's post-Ed Snowden generation truly believes that morality doesn't matter as reinforced by the now-OJ nature of the documents case, so it's not surprising that some lady thinks she can resolve an argument with another lady by attempted (and actual) vehicular homicide, and not even think for a second as to the moral implications. He thinks it may have been over a handsome stranger at the clubs both ladies had a thing for. The Heir's wondering whether the documents case should really be all that much covered to the exclusion, for example, of reports on audio regarding the status/risk of monkeypox or polio in Bachelor Blue State, now he's 90% sure Trump will get off scot-free from the documents case, whereas someone like you or I would end up doing 50 years hard labor. Truly, what else is there left to cover in the documents case that's still of true national relevance?

The other day the Heir objected to making the affidavit public. But now that it's done, his response is, "Now You've Done It." He believes the case against Trump is now irreparably damaged, and though the conventional thinking is that he's going to get indicted, that's probably as far as it's going to go where the secret documents case is concerned. The public already knows too much, and even the "unredacted" portions the Heir believes to be overly sensitive to national security. The slogan argument of "inquiring minds want to know" the Heir doesn't see as an adequate enough reason for this security breach, and he believes the judge acted more out of public pressure than a true balance between confidentiality and freedom of the press. The search at Maralago is now so much public knowledge that the only jury who will be fair and impartial is one the Heir believes will inevitably clear Trump of any and all wrongdoing, and he (either the Heir -or- Trump) will go out on the court steps claiming he's "exonerated," almost like how the Heir sees Michael Jackson of being posthumously "exonerated" of -ever- attacking the boys, and that's another thing. Even now, the Heir still perceives the morally outraged outside of Neverland with their pitchforks and their torches, and he doesn't think Michael Jackson was ever held accountable. But back to the secret documents case, the Insurgent News Network believes that the case got started when the National Archives found out they were missing the traditional letter in the drawer Obama left for Trump, and that's when they found out there were boxes of classified documents at Maralago, and they needed to call in the DOJ. No-one's saying whether Trump left a letter for Biden, but the Heir thinks that if he did, the letter likely contained only two words, and they're not Happy Birthday.

The Heir disagrees with the judge saying that the affidavit must be made public in some fashion, because the Heir believes that doing so is unprecedented and endangers national security. But he also believes both the judge and the judge's staff were intimidated both by the Trumpists and the apparently Trumpist-sympathetic press. The Heir doesn't want hear anything more about the so-called "Fourth Estate," because does that mean We The People are merely the "Fifth Estate?" The Heir wonders why a corporate conglomerate "press" has more rights than the people, and frankly the Heir doesn't care if he is very likely to be in the vast minority of any given poll that asks whether the affidavit should be effectively -breached- that answers No to said poll. This the Heir sees as yet another black eye on the press, particularly six months after they pushed an interview of an "expert" that suggested that Russia wasn't going to attack Ukraine about a week or two before Russia did so. What's next? That the same press wants to remove all the black bars in the affidavit, and reveal who's W1, W2, CW, V? The Heir's not sure whether Merrick Garland, whom the Insurgent News Network suggests has defeated Trump at every turn, ever anticipated the judge's preliminary decision, so the Heir's not sure Merrick Garland is all that bullet-proof. But the Heir wants to see a -separate- search with respect to a -separate- case unrelated to Trump or even politics at large, with a -separate- affidavit and search warrant, and see whether that -separate- judge bows to pressure to breach the affidavit in -that- search. If not, the Heir asks what's the real difference between the two investigations if they're conducted by the book the same way respecting the same level of confidentiality?

The Heir is so kind and tender-hearted that he wouldn't even hurt a lantern-fly, a pest that threatens crops in Bachelor Blue State. He's leery of New York's official stance that people squash said bugs on sight, partly because it might lead to an anti-bug stance in general, and that he wonders whether citizen-bug-squashing is really making a dent in the lantern-fly population. The directors of agriculture will have to come up with a more effective strategy, like maybe training goats to eat lantern flies, or breeding lantern-fly-eating-specific praying mantises. But while the Heir's kind to the bugs, he's -not- kind to Kevin McCarthy for threatening to obstruct justice in an official governmental manner if the Elephantines win back the House, in making intimidating remarks with respect to Merrick Garland. He disagrees with Lawrence O'Donnell's apparent stance that McCarthy should be ignored, and apparently so does Glenn Kirshner, whom the Heir's noticed as citing the US law code on his channels against the offense of Accessory After The Fact. We shouldn't politicize the process of justice just because an ally to the politicians had his home searched, because look at it this way: Giuliani. The Heir's seen Colbert making fun of Giuliani's drinking habit, and while the Heir simultaneouly laughs at it and questions its tasteful value, it reminds him that sooner or later Giuliani's going to get pulled over for a DUI, and obstensibly get arrested. Once that happens, The Kevin McCarthy's and the Elephantine politicians will threaten the city of New York with subpoenas to testify before a committee if they win back the House regarding the "illegality" of Giuliani being arrested for a DUI just because they probably also see Giuliani as an ally. Such subpoenas into fake "illegality" the Heir believes themselves also to be illegal, and he's getting ready to make a citizen's arrest of Kevin McCarthy, giving him the full perp walk and everything in front of the cameras, so be warned Kevin McCarthy: be sure to clear your schedule and your office desks for when the Heir himself arrives with a No Knock Warrant.
