Its not hard to quote an article
GOP operative who sued Trump says FBI referred hacking of her email to Mueller
Cheri Jacobus says she was subjected to a campaign of online harassment and sabotage after a public fight with the president and one of his top advisers.
Federal law enforcement officials have referred a 2-year-old email hacking investigation to special counsel Robert Mueller, according to the Republican operative who was the target of the hack.
The referral adds yet another dimension to the special counsels sprawling probe, even as some of President Donald Trumps allies portray Muellers work as nearing its conclusion.
...
Jacobus alleges the hacking of her personal email account was part of a broader campaign of harassment and intimidation that followed critical comments she made about Trump during the 2016 Republican primaries. Jacobus, a political PR specialist, served as a source for a 2015 Washington Post investigation that forced a pro-Trump super PAC to shut down. She later sued Trump for defamation.

especially the ones that just link to a tweet. How hard is it to copy and paste a paragraph?

(34,472 posts)7. because some people are posting from their phones, which may not
allow easy copying-and-pasting of text.

(53,342 posts)10. True. But if someone is posting a link on a phone, it's not a flip phone
Its either an iPhone or some form of android like a Samsung which are all very capable
