CA/FB

These docs are pretty extraordinary. The Cambridge Analytica/Facebook scandal always smelled like a cover-up. But now it looks one too. Washington DC Attorney General publishes redacted docs from inside Facebook that shows the official timeline is a crock of shit https://t.co/fLh5e56qiS

Lock them up?

Maybe it's because I'm not American, but this confuses me.

Hillary Clinton used a private email server and it's "LOCK HER UP SHE'S A CRIMINAL !!!"

Trump uses a phone that isn't secure, Ivanka uses email that's not secure and Kushner uses WhatsAPP and it's "Meh"

As a Jew and the son of a Rabbi, I am deeply offended by Sec. Pompeo’s statement. The Jews have survived for thousands of years despite not because of tyrants who rule by hate and fear. Sec. Pompeo does not understand Judaism or the Jewish people and he does not speak for us. https://t.co/YlztGhWTwg

Kushner what’s app

reasons not to use WhatsApp for any work/why Kushner probably did:

1. It's prohibited: "You will not use (or assist others in using) our Services in ways that: involve any non-personal use of our Services"

2. "Once messages are delivered, they are deleted from our servers."

— Sarah Reese Jones (@PoliticusSarah) March 21, 2019

JUST IN: Jared Kushner’s attorney told the House Oversight Committee that Kushner uses private messaging apps and personal email to communicate about official White House matters with foreign leaders – a violation of a law governing White House records and official policy.

misogyny in Beto coverage

What he meant to say was that female candidates with loads more experience and very sold, well thought out policy positions are not likable to compete with Beto because they are female and FEMALE CANDIDATES ARE NOT ALLOWED TO STAND ON TABLES WITHOUT SEEMING INSANE.

thread on Pete’s revisionism

Someone who was defending Buttigieg posted this screenshot of the interview, thinking the full context would exonerate Mayor Pete.

Instead, it showed that Buttigieg said two other howlers in addition to the "it was all about our own nominee" canard.
