Finding the Truth

I find it rather strange – I would say  ironic but somebody would probably accuse me of using the word incorrectly – that we know the individual parts of the atom, the age of the universe, and which dinosaurs ate which other dinosaurs, but we don’t know whether the DNC documents, the ones which proved that Hillary rigged  the primaries, were leaked by Clinton staffer Seth Rich,  leading to his  murder, or hacked by evil Russians.
Of course, I enjoy watching Trump twist in the wind while everybody (even some staunch Republicans) accuse him of treason, which I’m sure he’s perfectly capable of.  But I still think the documents were released by Seth Rich.  Otherwise, his  murder is  a giant mystery, because the story of a mugging gone bad makes no sense at all.  Picture it.  A dark street, no witnesses in sight, the mugger shoots him twice in the back (which is often known to cause death) and then thinks ‘OMG, what have I done?’ and flees the scene  without taking anything.
Of course, on the other side, there’s the unanimous word of all our intelligence agencies, but it  wouldn’t  be the first time they all lied to us.  They lied about Saddam Hussein’s ‘weapons of mass destruction, they lied (I’m pretty  sure) about 9/11, they lied about the babies being pulled from the incubators in the run-up to the first Gulf War, even using the Kuwaiti Ambassador’s daughter as an actress pretending to be a nurse, they lied about Iran-Contra, they lied  about Chile, they lied about the Gulf of Tonkin resolution, they lied about  the Cuban  missile crisis, and they’ve been lying since the 1930s about marijuana.
In any event, I  am in favor of finding out the truth.  I think everybody involved should be investigated, under oath, attached to a lie detector, and whatever answers they give should be investigated, and so on and so on, until there are enough Democrats, Republicans, and rogue CIA agents in jail for American democracy to begin to recover.
