@emptywheel OK, so this is all a debate about whether constitutional oath trumps NDA? It does. Doesn't make NDA invalid though. Debate over.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes

@emptywheel Never defended Litt. Said this was nitpicking over term "oath". Unless I'm forgetting a time Litt said NDA trumped Constitution1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -
