Once upon a time I thought Alberto Gonzales was the weakest and most craven Attorney General in modern times. I was wrong.

In the absence of the IG report, it’s impossible to evaluate the merits of this harsh treatment of a 21-year FBI professional. That it comes after the President urged the DOJ to deprive McCabe of his pension, and after his testimony, gives the action an odious taint. https://t.co/rpZqqxFp4u

What the lawyers on MSNBC were saying last night is that even if McCabe did what the IG report is said to accuse him of doing, the speed of the firing is wholly abnormal and suspect. They said IG reports just never work that way – the consequences take months, not hours.

And in conclusion
When the full extent of your venality, moral turpitude, and political corruption becomes known, you will take your rightful place as a disgraced demagogue in the dustbin of history. You may scapegoat Andy McCabe, but you will not destroy America…America will triumph over you. https://t.co/uKppoDbduj

Is that “unauthorized by Facebook” or “unauthorized by the people”? If the former, does that count as 50 million federal felony violations of the CFAA?
Or am I being hopelessly naive in thinking that the CFAA would be applied against a corporation with a legal department, rather than only against individuals like Aaron Schwartz?
Well, that’s another reason to be glad I’m not on Facebook.
