What were the grounds for dismissal?

Multi-pronged but from what I understand in short order: govt officials are largely protected from being sued for their alleged misconduct while acting as govt officials (absent a new law from Congress).
-
Have you taken to anyone in Congress for changes to current law?
-
Not yet. I have been asked to present the problem but have been tied up. I hope to do so. But I don't think Dem or Repub leadership will allow. Though all should support.
-
Solution should be tied into greater reforms to protect our privacy from government and private actors. Reforms could include a waiver of Sovereign immunity by the federal government for federal employees who violate the privacy laws. ... One can dream.

I remember during Loretta Lynch's confirmation hearing that you were on a witness panel. The republicans on the committee seemed very sympathetic to your case. Now one of them is AG. Does this help or hurt your situation?

Hasn't helped a bit.

He used to be my Senator. Now we have a Dem who has no seniority and doesn't represent our values. In exchange, we get an empty suit in the AG office. I'm still going to be somewhat patient with him (long term), but this is the kind of thing that makes it difficult.

Have been following this. Respectfully, I didn't realize the name on the docs is spelled differently. (?)

That's a mistake in document.

Thanks for that summary! It really helped! Why do you think they hacked you in the first place? Were you working on an important story? You must have some idea...

I believe I was one of a larger list--we later learned about Snowden, AP, Fox, etc. And others were likely spied on but weren't lucky enough to have intel contacts to alert them. This was likely monitor our investigations/coverage, find our whistleblowers.

Looking for the leakers/sources maybe...well there were lots of leakers!!! Still are. Incredible!

Hm. Well when the govt plants classified documents on your computer and has access to sensitive, private work investigative documents with sources and whistleblowers it isn't kinda trivial. But if you don't mind, more power to you!
