So... a story worth monitoring, but I'm gonna wait until more comes out from more trustworthy sources. (Hopefully from ACLU itself). Plenty of stuff where Obama merits criticism. (I wish he'd pardoned Snowden, to start). Gonna be hard to get into people's attention span with the perpetual sh*tstorm that's been happening lately though.
Seems like a fair response. I wish this measured approach were taken when the shoe is on the other foot - i.e. I'm incredibly far from a Trump supporter BUT there's been breathless reporting, wall-to-wall coverage on everything Trump/Russia for six months now, so many baseless allegations, so many thin connections played as though they're hard evidence. Meanwhile you have a few of these Obama admin potential abuses of power and look at how the media treats it...
Anyway, I'm taking the same approach on this one: doesn't seem like much on it's face, wait and see if more is found but there's at least some smoke worth looking into here.
