I now agree that the latest ploy to obliterate transparency is to distract attention from other provisions such as this.

The Weasel will announce "revisions" to the transparency issue to look like a "fighter" for regular folk, while his other initiatives slide under the radar. Meanwhile the "revisions" will throw everyone under the bus EXCEPT Scooter, who gets his past, present, and future corrupt dealings and correspondence shielded.
