And yes the GOP is complicit. Look at the approval ratings; 80% of Republicans still stand by Trump. When's the last day we've gone without a scandal? GOP is complicit in their inaction.

Easier still, how soon can we expect the story to be confirmed by subpoena of the meeting transcript? If the story is credible, we can assume that Adam Schiff will be in front of a camera somewhere today demanding it, no?

I'm inclined to wait for that to happen before breaking out the torches/pitchforks. If you want to continue foaming at the kock holster over an unsubstantiated story from the crew who breathlessly reported that Russia hacked our electrical grid...knock yourself out.

You don't need a PhD in journalism to understand that any credible media doesn't reveal sources and doesn't publish content that they can't verify with a credible source. I hope WaPo responds by releasing the transcript heavily redacted to remove security concerns.

Keep defending Trump though!

The whole go after the leakers is insane as at this point, the whole WH leaks. Some stories have 20-30 sources. So, what, lock them all up?
This is how DC works. People talk to the press.

I'll also add this was the Russian meeting where there was only Russian press and photos. No U.S. press or photos at all.



Also, if this happened under Obama, holy shit, Quaker and others would be on here yelling for his impeachment.

In your opinion, how quickly can Adam Schiff produce the meeting transcript, and settle the story's authenticity?

fish82;1853165 wrote:Yeah, McMaster's credibility is for shit, amirite? :laugh:

Looking forward to to the WaPo "sources" clearing this up during sworn testimony. Again, how soon can we expect that to happen?

I know it's difficult for you to grasp that people can have independent opinions and not toe the company line at all times. What action should there be? It isn't impeachable for telling Russia that ISIS has figured out how to blow up laptops on an airplane. Was it stupid if he told them how we found out, especially with Russia's ties to Syria? Sure. Is Trump a dumbass? Sure. Is it impeachable or "treason"? No

When it comes to White House leaks, don't worry about the source of the leaks, worry about the content.
When it comes to the DNC leaks, don't worry about the content, worry about the source of the leaks.

Am I missing something?

Two, those are completely different things.
The DNC Hack was a foreign government, Russia, hacking a political party and using Wikileaks to post the information. The news out of the White House is your normal leaking that happens at every White House with people. Sure, the White House should tighten up their own ship, but it not outside the norm. We had White House people leaking under Obama, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Reagan, Carter, Ford, Nixon, etc.It's DC and this is the swamp. Trump wants to drain the swamp, seems like he should start with his own White House first. Again, some of these stories have 20-30 sources.

If you believe that I am a liberal, check yourself because you are likely so far right that everyone seems left.

U.S. intelligence officials reportedly warned their Israeli counterparts to exert caution in sharing top secret information with Donald Trump’s administration for fear of it being passed to Russia and then to Moscow’s ally and Israel’s arch-enemy, Iran.

Discussions between U.S. and Israeli security services prior to Trump’s inauguration on January 20 gave rise to concerns that sensitive intelligence might exchange hands between him and the Russian government, Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth reported in January.

Your act is full on bleed heart liberal. The real sleeper we have known for 5+ years is moderate.
