50. Oh, yes! A "cocktail putsch," or a genuine attempt covered up

Sun Jan 14, 2018, 08:53 AM

Jan 2018

for the good of the nation or some such tripe? Given the power of those people, it seems very likely to me that talk in some meeting must have progressed at least enough to be a grave concern, even if it didn't tip over the criminal line into active planning. Though who knows?

Wonder if a full record of the hearings will ever turn up or if all were destroyed?
