1. Call me skeptical, but I think this is a ruse to gain greater approval ratings.

And it is also a distraction. Give the public duplicate 14,000 pages of previously released, or irrelevant, material for it to sift through while Musk uses the recently installed backdoors to the Treasure IT systems to steal data and manipulate operations.

9. I think it is more the later, to try to distract the public from the damage he is doing to our democracy and country.

Underneath the chilly gray November sky
You make believe that Kennedy is still alive
And we're shooting for the moon
And smiling Jackie's driving by
And they say, "Good try"
Tomorrow, Wendy is going to die

How many times were we assured that all was shown that could be to the public ? Nothing was being held back. Trust your DOJ.

Now a hidden file. Our DOJ at work. (chuckle chuckle) And they wonder why they are not believed.
