What happened to the “spooks” that hacked the intelligence oversight committee computers? You know, the people who are supposed to watch them?

I know some spooks called the Church of Scientology.

I seriously have no damn clue what those buggers have gotten up to that they’ve bullied the government into leaving them alone.

That’s a great point. They supposedly “beat” the IRS… which is horrifying.

> Plausible and possible?

By that standard, we should post every conspiracy theory ever created.

I think it is more likely that 5) many high ranking government officials have sympathetic views with said forces and don’t mind the “occasional incident” as long as said forces are working towards their common goal (whatever that goal might be; but it is probably Islamophobia, settler colonialism and exploitative capitalism).

I won't contest that. I recognize that my post was a bit dramatic but it doesn't seem entirely unreasonable knowing what we do know about past behaviors.

So you can be #5 and I'll be #6 :-)
