      Trump had thought ECW began working at DOJ in fall, but a confidant recently told him he wasn’t. Trump told staff wanted him there ASAP 1/pic.twitter.com/LGWSeUmxZc

      There's an OLC memo authorizing DOJ officials to share grand jury information w/POTUS.

      This can’t be true. I find it very hard to believe that OLC would write such a memo. How do you know this?

      Because I've reported on it repeatedly.

      Agree with Donna. I don’t think this applies at all to the Mueller grand jury.

      People w/far more knowledge about this opinion than you think you're wrong.

      You have no more idea who I am and what I know than I do about you. I’m not calling you stupid and I’ll-informed. Maybe you’re right. But you haven’t produced any evidence here to show that the DOJ is applying that OLC opinion to the Mueller grand jury.

      I know I've spoken to people who know more about this memo than you, because I know all the people who might have similar experience and you're not them. So, yeah. I stand by my statement.

      Great. Well, with that attitude and reasoning I’m sure there’s a job in the Trump administration for you.

      Oh. I'm sorry. I didn't realize you were secretly a top DOJ lawyer in disguise.

          Oh, so you're NOT a top DOJ lawyer? Great, then you've now conceded my point. Thanks. You see, I did have reason to say this. I've been reporting on this memo for years, consulting people at high levels on it. You ... are blathering on twitter.

          Name calling. Check. Evidence. Not so much.

          It's name calling to say that you're not a top DOJ lawyer? I'm not either. Not afraid to admit that. That's why I've consulted people who are--and other experts on this topic, in the course of years of working on this memo. Have you?

          Still no evidence. @lrozen is reporter who also tweets. You appear to be tweeter who claims to report. She has to back up her reporting. Why won’t you do same? I didn’t say you were wrong. I said you haven’t shown evidence to back up your claim. No asking you to reveal sources.

          You appear not to know a single thing about me, nor have you bothered to find what I've written about this in the past. I've made it clear I've spoken to the top experts on this memo (and people overseeing Mueller, in the last year). If that's enough then we're done.
