right after she gives this testimony, in front of an FBI agent among others, she's transferred to a minimum security prison not suitable for a sex offender like herself. Who made that decision and why? The Bureau of Prisons. The Bureau of Decisions made it in... Prisons. The Bureau of Prisons decided on their own without any consultation with Blanche or anyone else that they were gonna suddenly after this interview completely unrelated to this interview, completely unrelated to anything she said, move her to a prison not suitable for a sex offender. You want the American people to believe that? Do you think they're stupid? No, I think the American people believe the truth that I'm not in the weeds on the everyday movements. Oh, you're not in the weeds?
