      He seems pretty logical and coherent actually. Rather than make ad hominem attacks perhaps u might describe what is wrong (aside from a typo) w/ his post.

      It doesn't characterize the story, nor does it characterize the DMs that the story has oversold.

      The story didn't over sell the DMs. The story is very straight forward. Don Jr had contacts with Assange during the election regarding the release of campaign material stolen from Hillary Clinton. Do you dispute any of that?

      Yeah, but DonJr asked WL what they we're releasing. No reply. WL suggested campaign contest loss. No reply. Not really collusion

      Yes, and not entirely clear whether WL actions violate US law.

      I'm pretty sure that isn't the point of the article. People have been loudly casting them (and they have casted themselves) as an independent news source. We now know they sought to work directly with Trump campaign. Its big news.

      If in Nov 2017 you need DMs to discover WL preferred Trump--something that would have been clear based on WL's fight w/Hillary in 2010, you need help.

      Tell that to @ggreenwald and Jeremy Schahill and there 5m followers. Also remember Trump started receiving classified briefings in August 2016. He would have had a lot more info regarding Wikileaks and Russian interference at that time.

      Maybe. That briefing wasn't comprehensive. In any case he had no basis to share w/Jr.

          What’s wrong w/ u? Are u serious? What makes u think he didn’t share everything w/ Jr and vice versa?

          It would b bizarre if u didn’t consider circumstantial evid, context pattern + practice of the people u r deciding for no good reason to give the benefit of the doubt to. Based on the those factors can u say in good faith there’s no basis for such an assumption?

          I mean this alone is damning (circumstantial- which counts! In courts of law!) evid of coordination of some sort: 15 minutes after Jr. recvd a tweet from Wikileaks abt more hacked emails Sr directed his followers to look into that information. https://twitter.com/juliaioffe/sta …

          Well if you want to stake your arguments on "maybe" and your belief that Trump isn't sharing info with Jr... To each their own.
