I keep thinking of the family of Seth Rich, who have spent two years watching kooks and useful idiots accuse their murdered son of leaking these emails. Imagine how that feels.

Reminder that Julian Assange (who was in a position to know) and others have spent the past 2 years trying to pin the DNC hack on Seth Rich, a slain DNC junior staffer who cannot defend himself. https://t.co/ibOGMpC27Z

One can still hope Assange will pay some price for his venality in this, among other, instances. Newt Gingrich, on the other hand, has nothing to fear but the verdict of history…
Today’s indictment is fatal to the Seth Rich conspiracy theory. @newtgingrich said to be in search of a newer, healthier conspiracy. https://t.co/qIhutP8M2M

In light of the Mueller indictments, I called @newtgingrich to see if he would like to apologize to the Seth Rich family for peddling the conspiracy theory that Rich was killed for supposedly leaking the DNC docs to Wikileaks.
"No. Goodbye!" Gingrich told me before hanging up. https://t.co/hhy10ru7MN
