She\u2019s been known to have \u2064been a fellow \u2064Obama staffer and the Daily Mail\u200d reported last week that she was 26, but other than that, she\u2019s a cipher.<\/p>\n<p>His toxicology report \u2014 which would give an idea \u200cwhether drugs or\u2063 alcohol \u200cplayed a \u200drole in the death of a man whose body was found only\u200c 100 feet from shore \u2014 has not \u200cbeen released, thanks to Massachusetts law.<\/p>\n<p>If Tafari was inebriated or suffered from some sort of medical condition that made it impossible for \u200chim to save his \u2062own life,\u2064 the \u2064public hasn\u2019t been informed, and that\u2019s a major question.<\/p>\n<p>Even\u2062 people who can\u2019t swim will struggle mightily to keep themselves \u2064alive, and 100 feet, under the calm conditions \u200cneeded to go paddle boarding in the first place, should have been do-able for a man who knows\u200c how.<\/p>\n<p>And that mystery feeds the idea that there\u2019s more to Tafari\u2019s death than a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/its-like-mourning-guardians-of-the-galaxy-star-reveals-what-set-her-off-as-the-trilogy-wrapped\/\" title=\"\u2018It\u2019s Like Mourning\u2019: \u2018Guardians Of The Galaxy\u2019 Star Reveals What Set Her Off As The Trilogy Wrapped\">simple accident<\/a> in a resort\u200d area at the height of \u2062summer.<\/p>\n<p>This isn\u2019t tinfoil hat stuff either.<\/p>\n<p>First Amendment advocates and media representatives told \u2063the Daily Mail that the authorities need \u200cto come clear \u2014 for instance\u200b by releasing the 911 call which the Daily Mail reported was made \u2064by a Secret Service \u2064agent\u200c to report the potential drowning.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe\u200b 911 call absolutely should be released,\u201d \u200dRobert Bertsche,\u2062 general counsel of the New \u200cEngland Newspaper and Press Association, told the Daily Mail in an article published \u200dThursday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo should the other details about \u200cthe now-completed investigation \u2064by state or\u200d local authorities.

A simple accounting for why she was unable to do so shouldn\u2019t be that hard.<\/p>\n<p>And before we get into pearl-clutching about \u2064stoking rumors about the 45-year-old man paddle boarding \u2064with a woman half his age, there\u2019s nothing on its\u200d face that suggests impropriety on\u200b its face.<\/p>\n<p>And even if\u2062 there were, this is a country that has been through the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/bill-clinton-monica-lewinsky-affair-manage-anxieties\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bill Clinton presidency<\/a>, with its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/leaked-picture-reportedly-epstein-appears-show-bill-clinton-sexualized-pose\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">infamous blue dress<\/a> and even <a href=\"https:\/\/meaww.com\/bill-clinton-monica-lewinsky-cigar-episode-oval-office-impeachment-american-crime-story\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">more infamous cigar<\/a>. Followed by the ceaseless degradation of human sexuality that has been relentless throughout the 21st century. It\u2019s a good bet\u200b that hanky panky by a chef \u2014 even the Obama chef \u2014 would barely make a headline, much less a scandal.<\/p>\n<p>So, what is it about this particular woman, at this particular time \u2064and place, that apparently\u2062 has the powers-that-be in Massachusetts willing to stonewall the public to \u2064keep her name and role out of it?<\/p>\n<p>Instead of the wall-to-wall coverage every honest American knows would have blanketed a death at Mar-a-Lago, the Tafari death has\u2064 gotten negligible coverage. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2023\/08\/23\/us\/obama-employee-tafari-campbell-accidental-drowning\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CNN<\/a> gave last week\u2019s \u201caccidental death\u201d announcement a story consisting one new paragraph and the rest of it background.<\/p>\n<p>Summer interns on most news organizations do more work than that.<\/p>\n<p>Tom Fitton, president \u2064of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/dems-trump-attack-backfires-accidentally-set-stage-prosecute-biden-judicial-watch\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">conservative\u2063 watchdog group<\/a> \u200cJudicial Watch, said Americans deserve to know more \u2014 especially about the woman \u2064who was with Tafari and what coordination there has been between the Secret Service and local and state investigators.<\/p>\n<p>(This is Massachusetts, remember, a state so liberal \u200da\u200c Democratic heavyweight could practically <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/chappaquiddick-cnn-tweet-kennedys\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">get away with murder<\/a> if he felt\u200b like it. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/powerful-people-tried-to-block-release-of-kennedy-film-chappaquiddick\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Oh, wait<\/a> \u2026)<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s simple information.
