Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

      The "dangerous precedent" Rosenstein is talking about is letting some defendants see FISA apps -- which was actually the intent of Congress in 1978. Maybe something GOOD will come out of this stupid #ReleaseTheMemo fiasco. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/justice-dept-officials-appealed-to-white-house-to-halt-release-of-memo-alleging-fbi-abuses-related-to-author-of-trump-dossier/2018/01/30/32f9d15a-060d-11e8-ae28-e370b74ea9a7_story.html …pic.twitter.com/Kx1QrCILnW

      Also, can we stop reinforcing the WH's desired narrative that Trump is only in danger for obstruction? He has told friends he's safe bc Manafort won't flip on him--that's not abt obstruction.pic.twitter.com/sKNEZHWscd

          When did obstruction of justice become an “only” crime? Like, oh nothing bad, just obstruction of justice, no biggie.

          I don't think I said that. But there is certainly a good deal of circumstantial evidence that Trump did more than that. And that the target of this obstruction inquiry may be someone other than Trump.

          I wasn’t implying you said it, sorry. That’s how it seems to be treated by the GOP establishment and commentariat.

          Yup. I’ve set up camp in the weeds - pouring over (English & Русском) docs/media - & just on its face it looks like everything else Trump does: offensively blatant & shockingly sloppy. I’m itching to see his taxes, but I can’t imagine they help the matter. You see the same?

          It seems to suggest the money-laundering charge has a lot of merit....

          Do you have a source for that? Would love to read about it!
