Match Made in Heaven: The Surprising Similarities Between Radical Islam and Talmudic Judaism
Puppet Masters
The Democratic National Committee (DNC) has officially served its lawsuit to WikiLeaks through the unconventional means of Twitter.
The suit, which alleges that the Russian government, the Trump campaign, and WikiLeaks conspired to influence the 2016 presidential election in favour of Donald Trump was filed last April. However, due to the group's elusive nature, lawyers were unable to officially serve the whistleblowing organization.
On Friday, the law firm representing the DNC, Cohen Milstein, served the suit in a single tweet. The account, which appears to have been set up specifically for this purpose, links to a number of legal documents related to the case.
Last month, the DNC filed a motion in a federal court in Manhattan requesting permission to serve the lawsuit through Twitter after its attempts to reach WikiLeaks via email failed, reported CBS News.
The Democrats argued that Twitter was an appropriate platform in this instance because of WikiLeaks' prolific tweeting."WikiLeaks seems to tweet daily," the DNC contended, drawing on a legal precedent set in a US District Court in 2016
The DNC also pointed out that WikiLeaks previously claimed on Twitter that it had already read the lawsuit.
At the time of writing, WikiLeaks had yet to respond to the official notice of the summons.
Earlier this week, its founder Julian Assange was called to testify before the US Senate Intelligence Committee - an offer that WikiLeaks say is being considered.The letter was delivered to the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, where Assange has been living since he was granted asylum six years ago.

Again hopefully we can rely on the judiciary for logic and procedure, since we can’t rely on the Dems for anything other than blame.
What they're saying is if they (the DNC) gets caught out in less than ethical, or even illegal practices and someone breaks news of this and it causes them to lose and election, than that is illegal? They really are quite revoltingly pathetic.... Ok evil. And I suppose they want respect too? That's pretty illogical.

Comment: How strict are the legal rules of procedure and does anything fly? Logic (obviously devoid in certain circles) would dictate a forgo of the lawsuit until something substantial is discovered and proven.
