    It feels deliberate at this point. Are they trying to pour gas on the fire for some reason? Like maybe they found CSAM on his home computer, so they are trying to chum the waters and make this guy the face of the rebellion so that when all is revealed, everyone who cheered for him will be demoralized. Is Thrawn working for the feds, maybe?

      But it’s easy to delete all the other photos off your camera and say, “This is the only photo I got in focus.”
