From what I understand, Sculley’s iPhone is able to tweet all by itself, or it was hacked, or Sculley tweeted from his iPhone. Occam’s razor.

It should be a fairly simple thing to prove. Glad that Trump already called him out.

From @realDonaldTrump
“@SteveScully, the Never Trumper next debate moderator, got caught cold. Pulled out the old, “I’ve been hacked”, line. That never works. His bosses are furious at him as he’s lost all credibility!”

Smells just like the Anthony Wiener phony “hack excuse” which of course turned out to be a Wiener Whopper. Seems like the same may well be true for Smelly Scully!

FBI to rescued deep state leftist hack CPD moderator from a post that shows he is a deep state leftist hack, when we all know that he is impartial because the impartial panel running the CPD says so.

Such thing undermine confidence in the American political process [oh the irony].

Oh great, F-Troop in on the case. In a few days we will hear the Russians hacked it. They won’t actually look at Twitter servers or the actual phone, Crowdstrike will tell them.

Scully has claimed his Twitter account has been hacked at least three different times, but he’s never provided evidence before. What are the odds that this actually happened? One in a trillion?

Scully is busted—big time.

This would be the FBI scrambling to do cleanup for another sloppy mistake by a Leftist. Scully will also get a crash course on how to do covert communication.

Lying to the FBI is bad if you’re a Republican.

Good thing Steve isn’t a Republican.

FBI and Twitter will assign blame to Russian Hackers. Wray is on it.
