Nice point! But I haven't said I did know, have it? I just doubt it was Baldwin, Illinois: that's so rare, for people.

Just read my Wikipedia bio. Generally accurate, but gives my birthplace as Baldwin, Illinois (pop. 373). FAKE NEWS! Obviously Russian hacker at work. But why?

There might be a secret indictment of Julian Assange, but no indictment has been made public. Brown not charged under Espionage Act.

That negotiation with North Korea has not been productive is dangerously misleading. Read @SecDef19 William Perry. usnews.com/opinion/articles/…
