Well it was a Trump tweet or Q that was talking about the color of the sciff and said things only those inside would know. I think it was last Christmas. So they were being monitored in some way even though the point of the sciff is to be totally secret. So how did that happen? Who knows?

Interesting question... and I don't know the answer. But the NSA and various military intel groups have all sorts of intel gathering methods, some of which we can't even speculate about, they are so advanced. I thought it was science fiction a few years ago when I read that a new sound system could be aimed at a window and pick up subtle vibrations in the glass from conversations going on in that room. So today, who knows what advancements have been made in surveillance. I guess I'm glad I lead a fairly innocuous life and don't have much to hide, except maybe my extreme America-first beliefs.
