Tweets praised Yates’ straightforward, clear-eyed recounting of her alerts to the Trump administration that former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn could be vulnerable to blackmail by the Kremlin because of his talks with Russian officials — and her decision that Donald Trump’s first travel ban was unlawful.
