    Another form of cover-up?

    This should be a warning to the "underlings." Work for the administration at your risk and peril, but it is true there are rarely any who resign,and those who do are never heard of again due to the media blackout.

    Is this another cover-up for the preceding administration? It certainly looks like it. It gives off the feeling of walking on quicksand, the kind where banana republics go to die.
