I get that a lot of you are disappointed about how it went with the Schumer amendment and the controlled disclosure. I was also quite disappointed until I realised today that what we got in the end was probably the highest possible. Maybe the saddest thing instead would have been that the amendment would pass unchanged and nothing would ever be found. That all doors opened and nothing was there. This is not the case. Instead we are not permitted to see the things that are supposedly not there. We found out exactly where the shoe hurts. We found out who to look in the eye. We found out how far their power can reach. For once they couldn’t play their game below the belt. These people have been keeping this thing secret, above the law, for over 70 years. They knew exactly how to smother our brave attempt at disclosure and meanwhile even keep it out the mainstream media. This is what they do, it is their game that we are playing, they are playing it dirty and I guess we came pretty damn far this round. The base we are building on in the months/years to come is so incredibly much wider and stronger than ever before. I am super excited.
P.S. I am not from the US but tried to stay informed so please correct me if I am wrong about this. 🙂
