17. Good points for sure, but

The public could just as well be educated if prosecutions were broadcast 24/7.

I'm not blaming FISA violations on the Church Commission, but the Church Commission's fruit was FISA, which turned out to be pretty worthless. I don't blame Congress as much as I do the Justice Department for not holding anyone accountable. But that's the rub - without PROSECUTION there is no point in having laws, or making more laws, or being educated about who broke them.

Ensuring everyone "knows the truth" and leaving it at that, is worse than doing nothing. It emboldens the next cabal. And you can bet your life there will be another criminal cabal, sooner than later.

Sorry, but even with AI backing Leahy's "Truth Commission", I just can't get behind it.
