    Yeah, THAT’S what CNN should’ve said in the headline. Investigations into Trump are so ordinary now they’re barely news, but Twitter ignoring the law and the search warrant — that ought to be big news.

    There are still serious news sites and government agencies using Twitter, something that’s been feeling more and more problematic to me. It would be nice if today’s news started a groundswell, or at least a conversation about that. Twitter has made itself into a forum for nutters, and now this? To anyone who’s still on Twitter, I would ask — Why?
