Trump admin loses fight to spy on random #journalists’ #LinkedIn DMs
The Trump administration’s fight to stop suspected leaks of top-secret military information on LinkedIn can’t sweep in “a vast number of confidential sources” of random journalists “who have no conceivable relationship” to the Department of Justice’s investigation, an appeals court ruled Tuesday.
