Folks: It is possible to believe (as I do) that people very close to Trump will be accused of some very ugly crimes. AND Believe that it violates the spirit of our Constitution to use the word "traitor" to describe Rand Paul's stupid comments.

One reason [people claim] to oppose Trump is because he doesn't give a shit about the rule of law. You don't fight that by being sloppy about things like due process yourselves.

Everyone rightly criticized Trump for accusing Peter Strzok of treason. Don't use the term cheaply yourselves.

As to Republicans who call the investigation a witch hunt? Honestly, the reporting on the Mueller probe has been shitty enough about key issues that I'm not surprised.

These people are traitors. And I'm not going to shy away from that term bc some journalist who was a year late to the party is uncomfortable calling a spade a spade.

I spend a great deal of time covering "Espionage" (AKA leak) cases. I am well versed in the difference between these things. And, further, pretty fucking committed to defending the principles in the Constitution about wagging this around easily.

Instead of policing the language of the people upset about the Republican Congress complete abdication of responsibility and active attempts to stop investigations police the people actively attempting to aid the billionaires breaking the law. Friendly advice.

Hi. I went to the FBI and provided information on a source in this investigation. What basis do you have to lecture me on how I can defend the Constitution?

whodunit? Retweeted Andrea Mitchell
Aren't you the one giving the lecture? I'm just not in the mood to have liberals language policed as Republicans aid and abet a crime. I thank you for coming forward. That doesn't change the fact you were dead wrong for a year.https://twitter.com/mitchellreports/status/1018539997425594368?s=19 …

Well, let's see. You said "Instead of policing, ... police," which is grammatically a command. So, nope.
