So many, many problems with the past few weeks. But folks intentionally blurring FBI special background checks--which are always for and whose terms are always set by the WH--from the rest of the FBI's work is going to suuuuuuck so bad for everyone. Here's the thing: when you say "the FBI is a partisan political organization", that makes it easier for politicians to say "the things it does that I don't like are just partisan, and we should make it do more partisan things I do want, and that's fine because it was always thus"

Nothing says independent impartial judge like writing a badly edited piece for the opinion section of a conservative-aligned newspaper On the plus side if he is confirmed we can at least rename oral argument "scotus bar fights"

I guess if you freak out at every weekly pre-scheduled rosenstein meeting at the WH eventually one of them has to be the one where he gets fired ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So let's get this straight: Rosenstein sarcastically shoots down Andy McCabe's plan to "investigate the president" and that's a pretext to fire Rosenstein? Really? That's where we are? 1. "Come on Andy, what are you going to do? Wiretap the president? Get real"

2. "OMG look he said he was going to wiretap the president!!!!11!1eleventy-one!!"

Here is a copy of the letter from Sen. @RonWyden's office. It identifies a solvable root problem: the Sergeant at Arms asserts he cannot use funds appropriated for securing government accounts to help legislators and staff secure their personal accounts. documentcloud.org/documents/4906… This is a good example of a rule constructed for laudable reasons -- the strong firewall to stop legislators using govt money for campaigning and personal things is there for a reason -- ending up with bad consequences on edge-cases like defending high-value accounts from hackers

Should probably do a thread on this. But holy moly they go out of their way to make this case more confusing than it is. E.g. one of the third parties is *called* "Article 19", not to be confused with Articles 8, 10, 14, 6 which are the law of the case. Nor should you confuse section 8(4) as being anything to do with Article 8 even when they appear in the same sentence.

Thanks, ECtHR. V helpful.

Interesting Q, but I don't see why not. OLC's opinion on presidential immunity here says his role is unique, and while sfaict it's never came up for justices, I don't see why it would be constitionally different to congressmen who can be indicted in office (this tweet should nevertheless not be read as any suggestion this is even remotely likely)

Some really insane stories of harassment by security at Ceasars of @defcon attendees this year. Wtf Or evicting @0xmatt because of a genuinely benign tweet that Ceasars security chose to take out of context and then call the cops over.

Ok, I'll bite, what is the actual point of space force? Maybe it's just that 400lb hackers from NJ are less damaged by gravity if they are in spaaaaaaaaaaaace

This is a bad take. It's been long known that SMS based 2FA is weak and actively targeted by criminals. zdnet.com/article/two-fa…

Mueller going to need to get a superceding indictment adding crimes against fashion to the charge list "And I say to you, the jury, this is obviously money laundering. Nobody can possibly be so stupid to pay that kind of cash and still look so bad without something super sketch going on. And so, on behalf of the United States, I ask that you return a verdict of guilty as charged."

Lots of fun aspects to this story. computerweekly.com/news/252445769… Fun fact: the first piece they did was specifically a whole post of disinformation *about me*. But also these are the folks who invented the whole nonsense "network speed" theory of why the DNC hack couldn't have been hackers.

This thread is garbage, but for the record there are *dozens* of these types of stories that don't make it into real newspapers because real journalists talk to real professionals and the eventual considered opinion of both is it's wrong and unreportable. This story wasn't new. Real journos looked at it back when it was on even tinier conspiracy blogs, and asked experts about it. I know. I was one of them. By multiple journos at different places. And not just this story. Dozens.

OMG finally. This is truly awesome news. Finally finally finally ditching the old garbage DOD PKI certs that you need to manually install.

So. A mini thread on one of the big conspiracy theories going round about the FISA application, specifically complaining that it contained a Yahoo article by Isikoff based on Steele's reporting.

Remember that? It's this underlined claim in the Nunes memo if you need a refresher It's referenced like this in the FISA application.

Goodlatte's "I've seen the rest of the unredacted document and it should be released" this morning is about here on the scale By contrast, a lot of Nunes' supporters this morning are at the "ctrl+f for claims unsupported by context of the document and hope nobody notices before the news cycle has moved on" stage of proceedings
