      This NYT story is acquiring the temporal collapse of a Sara Carter story. The original story suggested the incidents happened around May 10, two weeks after Rosenstein was sworn in. That would suggest the wiring the President/25A discussion happened RIGHT AFTER Comey firing.pic.twitter.com/hxhwixdbNd

      Then, in an update designed to rebut the (more responsible) reporting of other outlets, NYT reveals the timeline suggested elsewhere in the article is false. It wasn't May 10. It was May 16. It's still not adequate rebuttal bc they're working only secondhand, not fr docs.pic.twitter.com/4UpHmpcuMt

      But here's how NYT has undermined their entire story. It's NOT in response to Comey firing alone these things came up. It's in response to Comey firing, admitting it was bc of RU investigation, and leaking Israeli Intel to Russia. That changes the meaning. A lot.

      That's another thing that misleading quotes abt Page's take on whether there was evidence of "collusion" on May 17 (which NYT Mike gets wrong 100% of time in any case). Does leaking intel to Russia count after firing the FBI BECAUSE of RU investigation? Well, it's sure a clue.

      Anyway, highlighting NYT's original misrepresentation of timing also makes clear that this leak is exclusively about decision to hire Mueller, and their "scoop" is just inadequately understood (by them and their sources) attempt to say Rosenstein was nuts when hiring Mueller.

      No. THat's my point. The discrepancy within the same story abt whether it's May 10 or 16. Lots happened between those two days.
