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

      @tweetsintheME @nadabakos Never in the letter does Snowden make such a quid pro quo offer. Never.

      @bmaz @nadabakos we also don't know what people may or may not be privately saying to the Brazilian government.

      @tweetsintheME @nadabakos Exactly. He has a friend in Brazil. No reason to be ham handed in public with this if is his desire.

      @bmaz @nadabakos the text of the letter itself is not ham-handed, but I think it's a fairly obvious implication meant to build support.

      @tweetsintheME It's funny that similar offers to EUP and Germany didn't elicit this kind of feeding frenzy of speculation. @bmaz @nadabakos

      @emptywheel @bmaz @nadabakos the investigation, the UN, canceling the state visit all mean it resonates more.

      @tweetsintheME And EUP is talking about canceling the trade deal. So similar kind of angst. @bmaz @nadabakos

          @emptywheel @bmaz @nadabakos but not action on it yet, unlike canceling the state visit.

          @tweetsintheME Yes. Because the deadline to do so was further out and bc more parties involved. @bmaz @nadabakos
