From the Presidential Archives.
This email exchange between Secretary of Defense Bruce Wayne (SecDef) and President Lex Luthor (Potus) on the subject of his new director of the CIA was among the documents President Luthor gave to the Archives for general release after 30 years.
SecDef: You're out of your mind. I mean it.
Potus: She's perfectly qualified. I know from personal experience. She was constantly breaking into the mansion and never got caught.
SecDef: Whoop de doo. Lex, your mansion was the bunny slope of the breaking and entering world. The only admission requirement was a desire to concuss, maim, kidnap, or kill you. And I think the only reason you've appointed her is that the ones who came to concuss you succeeded a few times too many.
Potus: She could break in successfully after the cats moved in. More importantly, she could get out unscathed. She also got vital secrets out of China for me.
SecDef: Wai Lin's recipe for clay pot duck was not a vital secret. Unless there's something you've not told me.
Potus: That's where you're mistaken. Lin wouldn't move his restaurant from Beijing, he wouldn't sell the recipe, my chef couldn't recreate it, and I couldn't send Clark there every time the cats wanted it. Aggravated Furies are bad at every level.
SecDef: That, I'll agree to.
Potus: The cats want her in the role, she's qualified, Clark will stop gulping or grinning every time she looks him up and down (I hope), and she'll do a good job. Selina Kyle it is.
