      Michael Tracey Retweeted Jake Tapper

      Can someone explain what's supposed to be so outrageous about this statement? Invasive state power was used to surveil US citizens under circumstances that at the very least were highly dubious. I remember when "civil libertarians" cared about such thingshttps://twitter.com/jaketapper/status/1129348365211320320 …

      “Government power was used to spy on American citizens,” Mr. Barr told The Wall Street Journal, in his first interview since taking office in February. “I can’t imagine any world where we wouldn’t take a look and make sure that was done properly.” https://www.wsj.com/articles/barr-review-of-origins-of-fbis-trump-russia-probe-could-lead-to-rule-changes-11558090803 …

      The many people reacting to it with outrage. I didn't claim that you personally characterized it as outrageous.

          The closer we get to this all being exposed the more shrill they become.

          Boy, Tapper really got you there.🙄it is stunning how suddenly the left is unconcerned with matters of Govt overreach and abuse of power. Their thirst for power so extreme, they casually discard the protections afforded to us by the constitution. It makes me sick and afraid.

          @mtracey's favorite trick: find some people in group x who say a thing, then pretend as if *all* people in group x believe that thing, believe it to the same degree, in the same way, for the same reasons, etc, then proceed to bash group x for its lunacy, unhingedness, or whatever

          No, you didn’t claim that. You just really, REALLY overtly implied it.

          Here's the problem, Mike, and the part you're missing. The Orange Julius is calling that treason. And further, the proper way to investigate is to establish an independent, special prosecutor--not conduct an in-house investigation by a "Justice Department" unworthy of the name.

          At least Jake Tapper responds to you with your first name, a great example of how easy it is to telegraph a sense of superiority and condescension without saying much of anything.
