I don't disagree. But I am saying I don't think a no-comment here would be risky.
-
Yes. But also not necessarily consistent w/what IC has done in like situations in past.
@carwinb -
There are a lot of intelligence officials out there. I am not prepared to assume that IC leaks are 100% streamlined.
-
Which is not what I'm saying. I'm only saying that that statement is not credible. Done. Period.
@carwinb -
If the IC wants their denials to be credible, then they should not deny things they've done, which they won't do.
@carwinb -
Fair point. Though my initial response is partly colored by, Why would they hack this guy? Not exactly crown jewels.
-
It was far more sexy than 90% of what DC Leaks has done, and even DNC leaks. Have you read those?
@carwinb -
Yeah, they're mostly nothingburgers. But no one is denying those, so what's your point?
