      Michael Tracey Retweeted Mehdi Hasan

      Yeah, it's so amusing that the person who has published vast quantities of hugely important information about the country's most powerful political actors, including Hillary Clinton, is being railroaded by the full weight of the US security state. Ha ha hahttps://twitter.com/mehdirhasan/status/1131765915652120577 …

      Personally, I'm opposed to these new charges against Assange on principle but, I'll admit, I can't help but be amused by the irony of him getting screwed over by the same Trump administration that he worked so hard, & was so keen, to get elected. Sup with the Devil and all that.

      Mehdi specifically said that he was "amused" by Assange's predicament, and then deceptively characterized Assange's posture vis-a-vis Hillary and Trump. But now he's blocked me again (he'd previously blocked me, then recently unblocked) because he's extremely petty & thin-skinnedpic.twitter.com/6IikKyjGRM

          Mehdi also accuses me of "sucking up" to Trump even though I criticize Trump virtually every day. In Mehdi's view, you're "sucking up" to Trump if you reject hysterical liberal criticisms regarding Russia, Nazis, Mueller, etc. and instead opt to level substantive criticisms

          Maybe it's just me, but I think if you feel vengeful "amusement" over this situation -- especially if you're a journalist -- your priorities might be a tad misplaced

          They're all okay with Assange going down bc they really want vengeance for Hillary & will take anything that will stick justice. Like they do with Trump.

          Just like I’ll be opposed to any charges brought against Mehdi for his publishing leaked, newsworthy info in line with 1A (see Bartnicki), but I’ll not be able to help but be amused at the irony that the same thing amused him when it befell someone else.

          I think he makes a baseless attack on trump as if he has control over the intelligence apparatus. Couldn’t be further from the truth. Trump has had to fight to gain access to the truth about the Russian hoax because the intel community is not being honest. Deep state is real.

          Surprised so many people praise this guy when he can't even tell that Trump is doing exactly what Hillary would have done if she won.

          Thinned skinned is exactly what Mehdi is. Ironically he shares that trait with Trump.

          Reflexive blockers are not the sort of people that actually enjoy irony. Or humor. Or thinking.
