@tweetsintheME Most interesting question extant for me is why Pena Nieto has NOT yelled as loud as others.

@emptywheel the spying was, often without questioning the less idealistic reasons to raise a fuss. -
@tweetsintheME I think the sheer scope is newsworthy. I think further violation of SWIFT agreement newsworthy. Things like that. -
@emptywheel scope is newsworthy, but needs context and comparison, which I feel pretty confident we won't get. -
@tweetsintheME Sure. But defenders are ALSO not providing context of what backbone advantage means. -
@emptywheel ok, so then let's demand more context from both sides :)

@emptywheel don't have an answer to that one. I just find it funny to see people yelling about how the reactions prove how horrible... -
@tweetsintheME Suspect Pena Nieto so quiet is bc, via some means, we convinced him to keep DEA infiltrated in govt. -
@emptywheel who knows, there are various possibilities.
