As @benjaminwittes lays out, this was not investigation into Trump or his campaign. It was a counterintelligence investigation, under which Trump’s people fell.
That’s a BIG distinction.

I just had a super interesting exchange with Alan Dershowitz via text messages.
After calling his office today and letting his asst. know I had some research questions for him, he called my cell.
He didn’t want to set a time to talk, so we went back and forth on texts. 1/
It should be noted that ANY time, Alan could have just blocked my number.
For example, once asked him about his curious stance that “lying to the FBI is not in fact a crime,” he could’ve just said fuck off, blocked me, and that would’ve been it.
That’s not what happened.

I once EP’d a film called:
This Film Is Not Yet Rated.
It exposed how the @MPAA favors films from their owners, and punishes indies, favors war, punishes sex, favors straight, punishes gay, favors white, and punishes POC.
THAT was Joan Graves.

You see, a film that gets an NC-17 rating is blocked from most theaters, even prohibited from advertising in most outlets.
So an NC-17 rating can cost a film millions.
Now, ask yourself, why did these two films get different ratings?
