Work IT just sent out an email saying “Stop clicking on web ads and pop ups” with info about fake download/error buttons, etc. I (not-IT) want to just tell them “You either deploy adblockers or you deploy malware” but will probably have to find a gentler way to do so.

A digital illustration of a version of the big board from Wheel of Fortune. An array of green rectangles (each bearing an icon of a hand with crossed fingers inside a circle with rays), and white rectangles that indicate the letters in the secret phrase contestants are trying to guess. The board is not yet solved and reads like this:

M_YB_ I_
_ILL H_PP_N
__D_Y

Standing next to the board in a shiny pink and maroon evening gown and ready to turn around newly-guessed letters is a woman whose head is a human hand with crossed fingers. 

Below the board in the space where viewers at home are informed what type of  phrase is in play it simply reads ‘PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE’

Dolly Parton was a union member for five decades, proudly carrying the cards of American Federation of Musicians Local 257 (Nashville) and SAG-AFTRA (Screen Actors Guild–American Federation of Television and Radio Artists). And, of course, “9 to 5,” has become a global anthem of the working class.

I’m puzzled by Michael Schmidt‘s assertion in the NYT that “Rosenstein did not ask Mr. Mueller to conduct the counterintelligence investigation into Mr. Trump.” As I wrote in 2018, that’s exactly what Rosenstein did. (Mueller didn't do it; I don't know why) www.acslaw.org/expertforum/... 1/2
Rosenstein also wrote that Mueller is "authorized to conduct the investigation confirmed by then-FBI Director James B. Comey” to the House Intelligence Committee in March 2017.

Here's how Comey described that investigation to the committee:

I have been authorized by the Department of Justice to confirm that the FBI, as part of our counterintelligence mission, is investigating the Russian government's efforts to interfere in the 2016 presidential election and that includes investigating the nature of any links between individuals associated with the Trump campaign and the Russian government and whether there was any coordination between the campaign and Russia's efforts. As with any counterintelligence investigation, this will also include an assessment of whether any crimes were committed.
