1/ During his press conference, Cameron suggested the grand jury made the legal determination: "My job is to present the facts to the grand jury and the grand jury then applies those facts to the law."

Today he concedes that his team recommended the charges to the grand jury.
2/ During the press conference, Cameron was specifically asked whether his team made a recommendation to the grand jury, and he refused to answer the question because grand jury proceedings are secret.

That's true. But what he said next was highly misleading.
3/ The next sentence out of his mouth was: "What I will say is that we presented all of the information and they ultimately made a determination about whether to charge."

His words suggest that his team neutrally laid out the evidence and that the jury decided on its own.

THREAD: What can we learn from today's revelation from former Mueller lieutenant Andrew Weissmann that Mueller's team failed to take investigative steps because they feared that Trump would fire Mueller?
1/ Today the Atlantic published an article by George Packer in which Packer explores the forthcoming book from Andrew Weissman, who was one of Mueller's top deputies.

The article features an interview of Weissmann, and some significant revelations. theatlantic.com/politics/archi…
2/ Weissman's revelations are shocking. @AWeissmann_ said the threat of being fired by Trump caused the Mueller team to pull punches.

He claims the decision not to subpoena Donald Trump Jr. to testify about the Trump Tower meeting was due to fear of Trump's reaction.

What is it like to be in the room when Donald Trump ordered you to break the law?

Former Chief of Staff for the Department of Homeland Security in the Trump Administration @MilesTaylorUSA answered this question and more on the new episode of my #OnTopic podcast, out today! Image
This may be the most interesting and important episode of #OnTopic in our two-year history. It is a must-listen.

Miles provided many insights into Trump, the officials who resist (and follow) illegal commands, and Congressional Republicans.
