Openly scheduled except you didn't let any American media in, just Russian.

Why doesn't he share our nuclear codes too?

It was an openly scheduled meeting that the media were only told about the day before, but who were not allowed to attend. Where Red Don meet Ambassador Kislayk, something that was not mentioned by anyone in the White House, or in any of the WH briefings on the meeting, so that the only way that anyone found out that he was even there was due to the photos from the Russian media. Yup, completely open..

I'm shocked his team hasn't learned by now to take away his Twitter privileges the morning after any major scandal, which is pretty much weekly by now. I thought Jared and Ivanka were the smart ones.

 

[Sithborg]

Someone should probably check to bushes to make sure Spicy is okay. The briefing is going to be VICIOUS today.

EDIT: To be fair, I don't think that was Trump writing the twitter.

I have been asking Director Comey & others, from the beginning of my administration, to find the LEAKERS in the intelligence community.....

Might want to look in the mirror Trump-y

Everyone already knows it's "password1234".

Might want to look in the mirror Trump-y

He probably didn't finish that train of thought because half way through, he realized it was him.

 

[Lighthouse]

After being undermined by Trump again and again, if someone in his staff doesn't resign, they are truly the most pathetic of acolytes.

 

[Sithborg]

It sounds like Conway may be out, though who knows, since her husband got a cushy appointment. Spicy has to be on the way out. Trump has to be furious about the news this past week.

(which, Jesus H Crackers, it's only been a week since he fired Comey)

 

[MagnarTheGreat]

The new week is young.

 

[Dr Lee]

It used to be 'a week was a long time in politics'... now I think the phrase should be 'A day is a long time in politics'

It used to be 'a week was a long time in politics'... now I think the phrase should be 'A day is a long time in politics'

With real time video now on sites like Facebook, etc...... a day is a lifetime in politics. What they "just said" is the new "news as it happens".

 

[Matt]

So Trump's tweets seem to contradict McMasters. This administration would be comically inept if only they weren't actually governing the most powerful country on Earth.

Erick Erickson, who is a super right winger, just posted this.

I Know One of the Sources

What sets this story apart for me, at least, is that I know one of the sources. And the source is solidly supportive of President Trump, or at least has been and was during Campaign 2016. But the President will not take any internal criticism, no matter how politely it is given. He does not want advice, cannot be corrected, and is too insecure to see any constructive feedback as anything other than an attack.

I am told that what the President did is actually far worse than what is being reported. The President does not seem to realize or appreciate that his bragging can undermine relationships with our allies and with human intelligence sources. He also does not seem to appreciate that his loose lips can get valuable assets in the field killed.

 

[The Overlord]

I suppose Republicans just don't care that US allies will be less likely to share intelligence with the US after Trump said he has the right to blab secrets at his leisure.

 

[Sithborg]

Yeah, that is quite telling. And frightening.

And really, about the only thing Trump is contradicting with McMaster is the tone. McMaster is playing it smartly. Trump, is well, Trump.

 

[Boom]

I suppose Republicans just don't care that US allies will be less likely to share intelligence with the US after Trump said he has the right to blab secrets at his leisure.

McConnell and Ryan give zero ****s.

 

[MessiahDecoy123]

Other countries refusing to share intel with the United States is a hundred times worse than anything ISIS could do to our intelligence capabilities .

Way to go Orange Julius.

#MAGA

 

[Matt Mortem]

McConnell and Ryan give zero ****s.

Yep. Who cares about blabbing about classified intel when there are poor people to **** over. The only time they care about such leaks are when it might get in the way of ****ing people over i.e. Hillary.

 

[samsnee]

If I'm the intel community, I'd be pissed. Their jobs just got a lot harder because allies will not want to share info for fear that Trump will just blab it out to impress people with what he knows.

 

[BatLobster]

This latest shocking blunder should just be one extra thing to add to the articles of impeachment.

I really think it's a matter of when, no longer if.

 

[Dr Lee]

McMaster giving a briefing atm.... should be interesting when he gets to the Q&A segment

https://youtu.be/H5i6ndIpraA

 

[Sithborg]

Yeah, and no Spicy. I don't think he is too long for this job.

 

[Dr Lee]

'The Premise of the article is false'

Again with the very specific non-denial over what was said.... and McMaster shows he's drunk the Koolaid by attacking the leakers rather than the problem itself...
