@MarkSZaidEsq @SeamusHughes Zaid: "I hope this indictment sends a message to others that such behavior will not be tolerated by a civil society that is governed by law. It's not appropriate for anyone to threaten another individual's life, regardless of political views. 1/2
"My job was to ensure the rule of law was followed in how whistleblowers are treated. That role should not be negatively weaponized by partisans." politico.com/news/2020/02/2…
