1/ I'm writing a book on Snowden and surveillance that looks closely at all sides. I'm not immune from error but I care about evidence.

2/ That's the purport of
@edwardepstein in his WSJ piece and forthcoming book, which I've read in galleys. http://on.wsj.com/2irsm7O .6 replies 84 retweets 188 likes -

3/ I won't try to address every Bizarro claim. No time, space or inclination. Past a certain point, bad faith work doesn't merit the effort.

4/ But some sensible people are taking Epstein (& the HPSCI report) at face value. I addressed the latter before. https://tcf.org/content/commentary/house-intelligence-committees-terrible-horrible-bad-snowden-report/ ….

5/ Maybe there's a pony somewhere in those stables, but the muck pile ought to shake the faith of an open-minded reader.

6/ Samples of Epstein-style logic are noted by

7/ There are many more distortions and baseless claims in that WSJ piece. Far more are reserved for the book's 400 page indictment.

8/ Some examples I'll mention may seem insignificant. They're not. Epstein builds his whole fantastic edifice on these & others like them.

9/ All USG sworn testimony says "1.5m" is surmise & it was Snowden's job to copy/move documents. Like HPSCI, Epstein just disregards both.pic.twitter.com/U8OuChrhct

Except 1/5 of those were blank.pic.twitter.com/1vBx2AHPH8
