@emptywheel The FBI is not the POTUS or a PR firm. It doesn't base its actions on polls or the media thinks, but rather on what is legal -
@AllThingsHLS That might be a FAR more credible claim if FBI agents weren't a key cog in the leak machine.

@emptywheel @AllThingsHLS Admissible or inadmissible is the only real criticism under the law. Everything else is ignorance. -
@FreiherrBraun No. It is a free press, which is where pressure for changes to the law are. Always has been. @AllThingsHLS -
@emptywheel @AllThingsHLS Judges and the legislature do all the real work. Press just puts it in the paper. -
@FreiherrBraun Which is precisely why FBI agents leak so often to the press--so their views get mainstreamed to politicians. @AllThingsHLS -
@emptywheel @AllThingsHLS Nothing about deceptive techniques infringes on a free press. It all comes out at the trial, where it should. -
@FreiherrBraun What Comey is complaining abt is that press read a court document, which is their job. @AllThingsHLS -
@emptywheel @AllThingsHLS Not that they read a document, That they screamed abuse because FBI said they were AP. -
@FreiherrBraun Didi you even read the piece? @AllThingsHLS
