But that is PRECISELY (again, explicitly) what they were doing when they tried to claim Hillary'd be indicted. Ask Karl Rove how that works

@emptywheel I'd offer as a counterpoint that it's not actually clear this leak came from FBI.pic.twitter.com/von5x4SonG

Sure. But is it clear all of this is abt political influence?
-
Well, yes. But if leaks didn't come from FBI, we can't say "FBI is trying to exert undue political influence."
-
Assuming Giuliani made it up. Pretty sure there were similar leaks from <3 mos earlier that did cite FBI.

Maybe it was Rudy. Maybe it was Erik.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdwTWUP_PRE …

Anyway, as to differences: - CI leak purpose isn't to influence election. Trump will be sworn in. - Direct target isn't Trump.
-
Um. If direct target isn't Trump, isn't that MORE reason not to leak? Anyway, we disagree.
