Brennan should get out more. He doesn’t understand that most republicans are nationalists not patriots.

“Republican Patriots: Where are you???”

Over in the oxymoron time-out corner.

If Brennan is using such strong language publicly, you know the sentiment is shared by our dedicated career agents deep in the bowels of the FBI, CIA, NSA, and other agencies.

Mueller basically warned Trump last week with a strong brushback pitch and he refused to take the hint thinking he can huff and puff his way through this. I don’t think so. One way or another, I think he just wrote his retirement papers. He’s out of chances.

They no longer exist unless you mean patriots for Russia. Then, all of them, Katie…

“I cannot understand how the national security team can continue to abide by this and how Pompeo and Bolton and Kelly can continue in their jobs.”

I’m gonna take a wild guess here, but maybe it’s because they’re shameless, second-rate, partisan hacks, utterly devoid of moral compass, human decency, or self-respect, and driven by traitorous ambition, ruthless Machiavellian greed, and soulless opportunism to lie without blinking, in exchange for a few, fleeting crumbs of illusory power and momentary gain, while the global peace is threatened, our alliances are destroyed, our allies are attacked, and Trump sells out America and its people to the Kremlin?

Of course, I could be wrong…

It seems pretty clear at this point that the wider GOP is also somehow compromised vis-a-vis Russia and will do nothing substantive to stop this ongoing collusion. Something has been going on for years now with the Republicans’ deepening level of cooperation with the Putin regime, often explicitly going against our own intelligence services and the DOJ to side with Russia, and it can’t be an accident. I’m starting to think that this is a conspiracy that goes way beyond anything that people could have imagined before now.

You’re not wrong . . . . . but I will be curious to see if Pompeo or Kelly will respond to this demand in any way (Bolton is so far from the realm of normal that his response would be meaningless)

Brennan should also call for Gorsuch’s resignation, and the withdrawal of Kavanaugh’s SCOTUS nomination.

We all should.

I got lost down a few rabbit holes this morning and I believe you’re correct. This is deep, wide, and ugly.

I couldn’t puy it better than Ruth Marcus (WaPo) who just advocated for their resignations by saying, “save your souls - defend our country.”

Until now I had thought those Dems calling for impeachment were going too far politically, that they were just setting themselves up for defeat in the election. Now, however, I think impeachment or forced resignation are the only two choices. Anything less would just encourage 45.

Agreed. There is no way in hell their “private” conversation was not recorded. Guarantee Putin or his translator were wearing a wire. Guarantee that European and American intelligence had time to prepare the room.

Doesn’t matter, Putin would never extradite Trump. Pence and the spineless Republicans in office would be no better for this country

Trump would replace them with actual Russian citizens, surely.

Remember Bolton made a video hawking Russian armaments.

“It was nothing short of treasonous.”

FINALLY, someone with a backbone calling Trump out for the traitor he is.

Three words to explain all that you’ve been seeing:

"Follow The Money"

Or more specifically:

"Republicans Received Rubles"

The next round of indictments will be the setup for impeachment. The only question is whether enough Republican Senators stayed clean enough to avoid getting swept up in the mess. If not, then it’ll have to wait, but if so, things gonna heat up fast…
