Where does it say that we only get to hear information that the government decides we need for our "safety?"
And, more to the point, would you really want a fuckhead like the WLB making such a determination?
I didn't say any of that. This information does not effect my safety or security, and it was top secret information. As a person who held a Top Secret clearance at one point, I understand why that information is classified the way it was. And that's not the WLB's decision anyhow.
Releasing information about how the Russians attempted to access voting officials and electronics makes an attempt to catch them in the act next time much more difficult.
I'm all for making the WLB look worse, but this isn't the way.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
