Jack Smith's information belongs to the US public.

This government belongs to us. Information about this government belongs to us. This government exists at the behest of the US public.

It's infuriating that they have these investigations and yet they're secret

These people serve us. It's ours.

The Army later altered publication to remove a list of food banks, but we have the original text here:
US Army Tells Soldiers to Go to German Food Bank, Then Deletes It
The initial 'Shutdown Guidance' for the US Army Garrison Bavaria included instructions to go to German food banks.
