        Does that excuse the kind of things that account "liked?"

        Then why didn't the Alameda County Sheriff's office just run with the "RTs don't equal endorsements" line and call it a day?

        And left it there for hours after people tweeted repeatedly about the white supremacist's tweet sitting on their account. I don't buy it.

        They're lying because they follow verified white supremacists like Baked Alaska.

        Check the original thread from the local who voiced this. There's receipts in the thread. Obviously they unfollowed when they were caught.

        The @ACSOSheriffs account RT'ed Richard Spencer. (The RT has been up for 10+ mins, given @Walldo's tweet time: https://twitter.com/walldo/status/897337341601120256 …) pic.twitter.com/lyyMFHzkNy

        Nonetheless, I mean, it would fit if they had followed some of the most prominent agitators. (They shouldn't have done so from main acc't.)

        I'm looking for it. It was near where someone posted they had a bunch of Blue Lives Matter stuff up and someone looked at who they followed.

        Who knew Twitter was so complicated? NO ONE RETWEETS "ACCIDENTALLY". You need to click twice, to retweet.
