Today's Blind Items - Blackmail

This person in an A list position is from  a place that produced a still living A++ lister.   The person in an A list position had been said to have possible A++ aspirations himself.  While on the surface, he supports publicly the past and present A++ lister,  behind the scenes he has worked to derail people who the past and present A++ lister wants to work for him .  These positions are related to working with other nations and the candidates are deemed not warlike enough.  Why does he behave this way? Look at what info they may have on the tall person in the A list position especially that nation that always seems to be involved in any dirty doings.  His wife and kids spend a lot of time in their home state while he is often seen in the presence of handsome young men.  There are photos of private activities with these young men which are of course very effective blackmail.
