Presumably FBI didn’t know this particular (ie laptop) story was about to emerge. So generally putting Facebook on “high alert” about a Russia-style story that was “about to drop” is about as conspiratorial as it can get no? Under one reading that’s all Hawley’s tweet is alleging https://t.co/KjOVIcNRoQ

A) “Old news” doesn’t mean it’s not scandalous. (Hawley didn’t say it was new news). B) Zuckerberg says the FBI mentioned “RUSSIAN” propaganda & that “there’s ABOUT to be some kind of dump”–two (new?) elements of specificity not in @metanewsroom reply or article it links to. https://t.co/K1EhNAOTxC

On the Rogan show Zuckerberg specifically has the FBI warning about “Russian” hack and leak operations. Was that a new bit of specificity (that neatly matched the knockdown of the laptop story)? https://t.co/drCw1XqUvg

Trump hoarding a huge war chest, won’t spend to help even MAGA candidates at a critical point in campaign. If they have to rely on GOP establishment donors there will be strings attached–ie be less MAGA (A point I first heard from @bdomenech) https://t.co/fZLS26zQAg
