It's the only theory that makes sense over two vastly different Admins both with axes to grind on the other. Neither side wants to touch that plutonium. You know Trump is petty enough to drop that bomb on the Democrats and even on our allies.
The Democrats are petty enough to drop that bomb on Trump and the Republicans and damn hurting old man Clinton and Hillary at this point.
So, the real question isn't "why don't they release them?".
It's "what's in there that's so bad neither side wants to release them?".
I don't know its the information itself is so important or damning, its really the control of the information that matters. Its too powerful of a tool to throw away.
Could show how a bunch of different governments were working with Mossad and a bunch of intelligence assets are tied to it.
could be key to show how elections are manipulated or controlled.
could be the pedo ring runs far deeper.
could be a manchurian candidate both sides are hiding.
could be one big money guy/group pulling the strings.
it doesn't have to be weaponized to the point of taking down EVERYTHING, but if there is enough, it doesn't need to be everything.
could just be a man behind the curtain moment, they aren't all that powerful. kinda like the one episode of south park where the government created the conspiracies to make us think they are really in control when it was just random. all the "leaks" are lies to make them seem powerful/competent.
could show how a lot of the divisions that we think exist, don't really exist behind the scenes. uniparty vs two parties, China and Russia aren't all that evil.
maybe its some 1984 double-speak, the truth is what the government wants it to be.
Could be some coverup with something else entirely, think of Fauci's emails talking about how 6' doesn't work, masks don't work, the vaccines aren't proven. that but on national/international scale.
