The Wyden Siren Has Gone Off

Friday, February 06, 2026

Senator Ron Wyden has sent a short letter to CIA Director John Ratcliffe: "I write to alert you to a classified letter I sent you earlier today in which I express deep concerns about CIA activities." In the past, when Wyden has done this, it was when something really bad was happening.

A Ron Wyden specialty: sending a letter in public that reveals he's seen some really bad classified shit that he wants an explanation for.

I don't even want to know the stuff that could come to light were this administration to end.

It's what makes me most worried about how far they'll take this - they have to be pot committed at this point to maintaining power at all costs in order to remain free men.

I bet it has something to do with Israel or Iran, or both.

Don't know if it would have anything to do with this, but I read some wild stuff this week from Zev Shalev about Trump and his minions being implicated in the murders of two Eastern European girls killed during rough sex with "clients" of the Epstein sex ring. Epstein files include a couple of FBI tips about girls being buried behind the "19th hole" on one of Trump's golf courses.

Not surprised by this allegation.

The late US Senator Harry Reid (D-NV), a former amateur boxer and champion of the little guy, received damaging information from his own network about "Mitch" Romney during his presidential campaign which may have hurt his chances against Obama in 2012.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor also allegedly participated in rough sex with underage girls in the UK and is under investigation as a private citizen.

Too bad USAG Merrick "the Meek" Garland sat on the explosive and nuclear-damaging Epstein files from 21 Jan 2021 to 19 Jan 2025 while Special Counsel Jack Smith exhausted himself futilely for four years.
