I see NOTHING. I see "link to tweet." How the bloody hell am I even supposed to have a clue what anyone else is seeing or what I should be seeing? Post a screen cap! Show me what you get when you have "link to tweet" on your screen. I'd like to know so I can trouble shoot. Point being, again, I have a brand new phone, and I have no problem with ANY of this except for twitter links on DU. Are you telling me that when people post "link to tweet" there is actually content in the DU window, and not just a link to a tweet? If you're an iPhone 7 user, tell me the magic secret and stop saying I'm a douchebag because I only see "link to tweet." Help a brother out!

BTW, I get the exact same thing on my desktop Mac, which is also up to date. How is it just me?

The head of the Federal Bureau of Investigation can't get facts straight under oath. yardwork May 2017 #17

It's understandable, after hours of testimony. Not everyone is as smart as Hillary and Sally. pnwmom May 2017 #19

So, I disagree that this was an error. I think Comey said it on purpose. yardwork May 2017 #23

Remember that Guiliani knew about the Huma emails from his cronies in NY, and he was about to spill? pnwmom May 2017 #25
