You are correct. (Reason # 489,248 why I am not a lawyer)
You're welcome. The note of my fees will be in the post.

I seem to recall that the "Hide Act" is the one that says that anyone who looks up at the geese or moves his gun before they get well inside shotshell range will be mercilessly mocked by his companions for evermore, without parole or remission for subsequent good behavior. :P

You have to make some allowances for the founder of the democrat party; it isn't easy to spell genocide.

It's intent is to allow for discussion out of public view that could lead to modifications/improvements of policies and give feed back where policy is going wrong in the field. My understanding is that it has been used in every administration since it was created during Vietnam up to and including the O administration.
Can't say that I've ever heard of it.

Not like they advertise.

Similar stuff exists in the Intel and .mil worlds. You just don't usually hear about them unless you're working in those fields.

The only reason you're hearing about it now is the excessive amount of Trump Derangement System led someone to leak to the press for trivial political points.

There are a large number of people in the DC area that need their pie holes stuffed. With quick setting concrete.

Yep. Need to know and all that.

With these wankers pitching a fit, they should count themselves lucky that they are not ordered removed for five years. DHS could do that, and then they'd be really SOL.

Well golly gee. Imagine that.
DETROIT (WJBK) - The leader of a mosque in Dearborn has confirmed to FOX 2 that a man who claimed his mother died in Iraq after being barred from returning to the United States under a ban instituted by President Trump this weekend, lied to FOX 2 about when her death occurred.
According to Al-Hussainy, Hager's mother had kidney disease and was receiving treatment in Michigan - where she lived - before traveling to Iraq to visit family. The Imam said she passed away on the Monday, January 22, five days before President Trump instituted the travel ban.
The Imam, who voted for Trump, did not want to address the general unrest over the travel ban or the weekend chaos for travelers and protesters at the airports. Instead, he called for peace and patience.

Interesting to hear this. Mosque warned the police and Homeland Security that the guy who shot the security guard in Denver was radicalized. I'd help protect this mosque. http://www.miamiherald.com/news/nation- ... 70854.html
