I wasnât aware that this particular senator from Idaho, James Risch, was such a disinterested asshole in matters of classified information and national security.
Got to pass those tax breaks for the rich and destroy medicaid and Obamacare. Must. Hold. On.
25th Amendment here we come. While the president is out of the country next week?
shorter repubes: âNow, if he had emailed the classified information⌠it would still be OK, amirite comrades?â
Dollars to doughnuts that trip gets cancelled, just like his post-Comey-firing victory lap at FBI.
Ah, yes⌠The Nixon defense:
"When the PRESIDENT does itâŚ
That means it is NOT illegal."
~Richard M. Nixon
Time to start filling this graph from the WaPo in with the supporting cast of senators and reps who enable this idiot to stay in his job.
So if President Trump were to reveal the nuclear launch codes to Russia, these Republican yahoos would be all âwell he has the right to declassify anything he wantsâ <shrug, shrug>
Iâm gagging on the Orwellian level of GOP denial and hypocrisy. Jesus effin Christ.
This is now TPMâs permanent âpinnedâ headline, right?
I sincerely hope it comes out someday that the Russians are the ones who leaked the story to the Post just to slap Trump for being a thirsty little punk. The spectacle of his own wraithing is one of my only pleasures these days.
But her e-mails!
Howâs that working out for you, Republicans? Still think Clintonâs e-mail server is worse than Trumpâs election collusion & sharing classified intel with a hostile foreign government?
Not Trumpyâs fault. Check out InfoWars & Newsmax. This was a plot by rascally cat burglar and wire-tapper Barak ObamaâŚ
Obama mustâve hacked into Trumpâs I-phone, scheduling the meeting with Lavrov and Kislyak on Trumpâs cell-phone calendar. Trump met with them only because Obamaâs calendar note said the Russians were serving as a go-between, there to secretly drop off Mexicoâs payment for âThe Wallâ.
So you can believe Spice Boi tomorrow when he says âitâs all goodâ.
If itâs true?
Well, Lindsey, Trump probably taped it. How about you subpoena it?
And if he didnât, Iâm sure the Russians did. Maybe theyâll pass it along to the Russian or European media at some point, just for shits & giggles.
this should make the NATO summit a little tense.
Pretty much, the question is for how long this derails legislation. Appointing a new FBI Chief goes to the top of the list by nature so there goes Net Neutrality, tax cuts, and the ACA for awhile and heaven forbid a confirmation get dragged out.
Anyway, with how many scandals have been popping up Reps are clearly fleeing having to answer questions. Soon itâll just be reporters asking Dems what the fuck is going on and Dems insinuating maybe itâs because Reps are secretly Russian agents who are on the verge of getting caught.
Well, McCain and Lindsey just missed another opportunity to stand up.
Corker sez
weâre in a downward spiral right now, and weâve got to figure out a way to come to grips with all thatâs happening,â Corker told reporters. The shame of it is that we have a really good national security team in place and there are productive things underway through them. The chaos being created by the lack of discipline is creating a worrisome environment.â
Howâs that whole âsupport the presidentâ thing working out for you Bobby?
Canât trust the GOP to keep us safe from our enemies.
I think the secretâs out.
No oneâs said it yet, so I guess it falls to meâŚ
Say it with me folks
âIf this was a Democratic President, theyâd be drawing up impeachment papers right nowâ
