Bill Maher hailing "Proof of Collusion" author and Twitter crackpot Seth Abramson (he also once touted Louise Mensch as a Trump/Russia expert) is a reminder that this conspiracy maximalist stuff was never confined to a fringe. Has always been thoroughly, unmistakably mainstream

I love that
@mtracey has to write *two* books. If he spent a decade becoming a veteran prosecutor and then published his research on Trump-Russia collusion as a single volume circa 2030, that wouldn't quite cut it for@SethAbramson. -
If
@mtracey wrote a book, it would probably be the caliber of a coloring book.

Geoff Shepard: "one of greatest disservices post Woodward/Bernstein... reporters want byline to be connected to news stories... hype disclosures that aren't that important... desperate for readers..."http://bit.ly/2HkJNVc

You bring up appeals to credentialism while arguing ad hominem. To be fair, his credentials are absolutely germane to this argument since the only thing you’re actually calling into question is his standing.

It's ok. Seth blocked him so he wouldn't have to contend with his arguments.

Did you read his last thread on collusion? It was 4,371 tweets long and took me two days to get through, but I thought it was amazing...

Lol that’s actually not very good evidence. If you’re trying to come at “credentialism”, you should probably do more than say “this guy (who has been showing his work for two years running) is a crackpot” over and over

Thr Trump campaign shared internal polling data and campaign updates with Russia while knowing that Russia was interfering in the election on behalf of the Trump campaign. That is collusion.

Listen
@mtracey, I get ur skepticism and concern. but you are not right on all this. U can’t impugn@SethAbramson’s credentials. There is a there there and this is not a baseless red scare redux. People like@SethAbramson are not alarmists but are doing and important work. - 1 more reply
