So you might’ve read a story in The Hill last week that suggested two FBI employees were leaking information ahead of the 2016 election to hurt Trump. It was nonsense. Here’s why. Story with @NickBaumann: huffingtonpost.com/entry/fbi-text…
John Solomon wrote a story that served up a ready made narrative to the conservative media, and earned him a guest spot on Hannity. You may find it very hard to believe he omitted these facts innocently. huffingtonpost.com/entry/fbi-text…
If you believe that one of Sean Hannity’s favorite journalists didn’t know any of this context, I’ve got a bridge to sell you: huffingtonpost.com/entry/fbi-text…
Here’s the full exchange between two FBI employees about a WSJ story that reflected poorly upon their boss. huffingtonpost.com/entry/fbi-text…
Overall, from reading texts from FBI employees who criticized Trump, it was pretty clear to me that their main ideological commitment was to the independence and power of the FBI. huffingtonpost.com/entry/fbi-text…
I’ll say this: we sort of gave John Solomon the benefit of the doubt in this piece, leaving open the possibility that he’s just inept. Others may not be so generous. huffingtonpost.com/entry/fbi-text…
