And that little escapade at the seafood restaurant last night, I was surely wondering, what kind of no good they were up to. An early celebration?

No, it’s really not surprising to see folks pushing conspiracy theories about this event already.

I chastised myself for being so cynical. Oh no - another conspiracy theory?

At the same time I could see the benefit to some, including Krasnov. Eliminate him for being disloyal regarding Epstein...bring us one step closer to a civil war...create an excuse for some kind of authoritarian action.

We don't have much information yet, so I continue to chastise myself for dealing in speculation...
