Just a reminder that the FBI was granted a FISA warrant, which allowed them to spy on the Trump campaign, on the basis of an email from the CIA which was fraudulently altered by an FBI lawyer, and on the basis of an unsubstantiated dossier funded by Trump's competition.

Kilmeade just tweeting what legal told him to.

That tweet is getting a merciless ratio.

Reminder that twitter isn't real life, well I guess some believe it is.
The fact that they had to tweet something obvious like that out doesn't bode well for US society

You see obvious, I see legal jeopardy walk-back.

Fox already defending a billion Dollar plus defamation suit, and that tweet suggests someone in the org recognised that Kilmeade crossed a line.

Perhaps, or simply all the bad takes relating to it made them realise how naïve some people can be and this is just to make sure there is no misunderstanding. Almost like those "Don't try this at home" messages.
When memes start being fact checked you start losing faith in humanity.

Forget fact checking, memes like that shouldn't pass muster in a newsroom, let alone make it to screen.

Ever.

What Kilmeade did was dangerous.

I've posted Ben before... Covers conspiracy for NBC... Anyway...

...and that, Kieps, is how this works in a hyper-partisan environment and why Fox and Kilmeade were super irresponsible.

Probably shouldnt be involved in questionable raids then.
Isnt this just a big "metoo" campaign to get law enforcement under control ?
I mean, if you consider the FBI as law enforcement.

Still running things through your Russian/English translator, Defo?

It's "me too".

Hey, sorry y'all had to cut your Crimean holiday short, pal. Hope you had snacks and water in your car for that 24 hour traffic jam.

Boo hoo.
FBI agents get named, who cares.
Public servants right ?
Doing the will of the public right ?

"Doxxing" of agents in the USA, who are public servants ?
How weird.
As a law enforcement agency, shouldnt they have been wearing body cams ?
Did they wear masks ?

You're thinking of regular cops.

Here, let me put it in a context you'll understand:

Politsiya = regular cops
Investigative Committee of Russia = FBI

See how easy that was?

How's that in anyway related to the meme Kilmeade posted? The agents weren't involved or "exposed" in that one afaik. Only the judge, who was already known as well as his connection.

People should be careful not to take everything that is said literally, especially on such forums. Quite similar to the Pence situation a while back. Ben most assuredly knows this, so his insinuations could also be viewed as inflammatory. Trying to expose identities of people involved in perceived questionable actions are quite common.
Death threats are also quite common, even for benign YouTubers, luckily it's almost always bluster. Unfortunately this makes it difficult for law enforcement.

Far-Right Extremists Are Violently Threatening the Trump Search-Warrant Judge

“Let's find out if he has children... where they go to school, where they live... EVERYTHING,” one person wrote on a message board where the judge’s address was posted.

But I'm sure photoshopping him into a pic with Ghislaine and broadcasting it to a million people couldn't possibly raise the temperature even more, amirite?
