    For journalism junkies: the great Neil Sheehan, who just passed away, agreed 5 yrs ago to tell the tale of how he got the Pentagon Papers — on the condition it not be published until his death. @nytimes has now published the tale. And what a tale it is! nytimes.com/2021/01/07/us/…

    The only thing that could make this story more wild is if there was a Julian Assange angle. Oh wait...
    Contacted Trump Jr this morning on why he should publish his emails (i.e with us). Two hours later, does it himself: x.com/wikileaks/stat…
