ICYMI, my piece on the oil products tycoon and friend of Mike Pence who pushed those in power to pardon two Oregon ranchers. Takeaway: The pres is bypassing the standard pardon process and instead blessing the wishes of the well-connected.https://nyti.ms/2LdBDvf
Graham, Buzzfeed's @annehelen + others did ****terrific and important work**** on the Forrest Lucas story. We did not, however, steal the story. This was in the works — and filed to an editor — before Buzzfeed ran their piece. More journos on a story = more info comes to light.
