Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

    It would be a really timely and important contribution if someone prominent did a piece for NYT or WaPo explaining this for lay people, integrating details from the indictment. "How to read a hacking indictment, for laypeople." Please?https://twitter.com/RidT/status/987476207448002560 …

    This DNC-didn't-give-the-server-to-the-FBI idea makes no sense. Investigators want: —disk images of many machines *in the network* —memory dumps of *connected* boxes —the adversary's movement in situ (network logs) —other data, eg exfil behavior *Not* some disconnected server

        Can I assume when you refer to lay people, you are referring to people who have no legal training?

        I'm more interested in their technical background in this case.

        So, Mitch McConnell knew most of the information in the Lawfare article when he blocked exposure to the country? They will defend this to the death which means American society is in for a really, really hard time.

        Has anyone noticed that while Trump's legal team has been focused on obstruction charges, Mueller hasn't mentioned it once in the two major indictments. He's played Giuliani and Sekulow. He's saving obstruction for dessert.

        Why did the Comey mislead in the first place by testifying that the dnc wouldn't give the fbi access to the server?

        Wouldn’t that require that the Times and Post not be the bag for corporate interests whom Trump and the republicans just handed a trillion dollars? I’m sure they’ll get right on undercutting their piggy bank.

        We're all doing it again - taking a trumpism and trying to apply it to the prosaic. We've tried this before. Ambiguity and disinformation through obnoxious tweets that set the discussion paramters are, yet again, working brilliantly for him.

        Trying to explain this to people whose VCR (yes they own one still) clock has been blinking since the '90s seems...ambitious. Especially since those saying it have no interest in facts.

        What’s the point? Lay people or professionals. All have already taken intractable positions , such as Andrew McCarthy. If any reasonably intelligent person has been following along the last two years, they already know and expected the indictment. The rest are dolts.
