THE VICE-PRESIDENT SHOULD SPEAK FOR HIMSELF.  THE ANONYMOUS OP-ED AUTHOR & THEIR GROUP's COUP d' ETAT HAS TO BE UNMASKED.

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

Wow! Vice-President Pence went on nationwide television yesterday and told the interview host that he is"100%" confident that NONE of his staff is the NY Times Op-Ed author. When asked he said he knows his staff and  their character and they are not the author of the Op-Ed.  He was asked if he had asked members of his staff if they were the author of the Op-Ed in the NYT He relied, "No.. I know their character." When asked if he would take a lie detector test, (polygraph) He replied, "in a  heartbeat."  That's great. Speaking for himself  is the correct  response. But to speak for his entire staff is a big mistake.

There is  no one on this planet that knows (for certain) what is going on in the mind of another individual, no matter how long you have known a person or how close they are to you. How many times have you heard people say such things as:  "I would never have suspected he would kill a person, he was my neighbor for years." Or, " my husband cheated on me with another woman for years. The affair lasted 10 years. I had no idea ." Or, " I was married to the man for over 20 years, and had no idea he was  someone else leading a double life."

And, what  is the first thing lawmakers in Washington say when one of their own private club commit a crime? " That;s not the man/woman I knew. I would never have suspected the person was capable of such a crime." Then, the head of the office or agency that had the person on staff begin making excuses to distance themselves from the  offender.

I would suggest that Vice-President Pence ONLY speak for himself. Not present a blanket clearance for  his entire staff, especially when he did not sit down with each one and ask them directly if they were in fact, the author of the piece. I would say, that's no way to run an office. But, what  boss would not say "my people's okay". They want to believe that individuals they hired, vouched for and employed are squeaky clean people. That;s nice , but not realistic, especially in today's world.. But really, does anyone really know what a person is capable of?

Good example, look what is currently occurring in the FBI, the Justice Department, State Department and our FISA courts. No one would have suspected the people that were found to be liars, corrupt individuals thus far would do such a thing. BUT they DID. They were caught in their own web they built for themselves. So again, let each person speak for themselves Mr. Vice-President. Let the person defend their own position.

Let me say, I have administered polygraph (lie-detector) examinations for federal, state, county and municipal agencies for  many years. I have taught the  technique to federal investigators. And, as any law enforcement or criminal investigator  knows "EVERYONE IS SUSPECT during an investigation. This  approach specifically  applies in regards to a polygraph examiner. Until all of the alleged suspects are administered the lie detector test to determine the actual involvement in the issue at hand everyone is suspect. I would suggest that Vice-President Pence let each and every member on his staff SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES.

If it comes to administering lie detector tests in this Op-ED  mess I would also suggest that no one be exempt. Each department/agency or office  in the administration should send each and every employee in, one by one, office by office, from the Vice-President on down. I would think that under the umbrella of National Security concerns  every employee working in the administration would be subject and mandated to undergo the lie detector (polygraph) examination.

Final thought, if the courts would step in and get involved they could have the New York Times reveal the author of the Op-Ed. That certainly would save a  lot of stress and strain on the administration, regarding any lie detector examination and clearly would  end the speculation as to WHO wrote the Op-ED. I believe this route would be best for the entire country and the person unmasked could be prosecuted for any crime(s) determined to be committed by penning such accusations against the President of the United States or subverting the constitution for their and their groups agenda of a secret "coup d' etat". - - And, that's my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide.
