I just listened to the Darknet Diaries episodes (86/87/88) about the guy who "hacked" Trump's Twitter, actually he was a white hat who figured out that Trump's password in 2016 was "yourefired" because he used the same password on LinkedIn which got hacked.
And then he tried again in 2020 and Trump did not have 2-factor authentication on even though Twitter was trying to push it for political accounts, and his password was "MAGA2020!" which was near identical to the password for wifi at Trump rallies.
It was so easy that I basically guarantee other countries (and probably our own also) got in and read the messages, which brings up the intriguing possibility that they're not looking for what he has retained in there, but what he deleted. Deleting incriminating evidence is essentially admitting guilt, not to mention obviously obstruction of justice.
Even if they could get in with little effort for them to be able to use the evidence in court it would have to be legally obtained. This isn’t intelligence gathering on a foreign adversary. Trump and his lawyers are going to try every maneuver in the book to get him out of seeing any consequences for his actions, the FBI need to do everything with this case by the book or risk everything getting thrown out on technicalities.
Which Ep was that?
Edit: I completely missed that OP had the episode numbers listed in the post. Thank you poppy@lemm.ee for letting me know.
The episode numbers 86, 87, and 88 are listed in the parentheses.
Thank you and apologies, I completely missed that.
