Yes, but juicy!
It really doesn't help. There are real problems with Trump. Jeff Sessions is one of them, for instance. This constant rabbit trail Russian hoax you guys keep on life support is gonna put him back in the White House with an even bigger majority.

I wouldn't be surprised if McMaster was the source for the story. He was at the meeting. He's probably sick and tired of Trump's mishandling of classified information. Only way that Trump notices criticism is if the press reports it.

You wouldn't be surprised "IF"...
He's probably....
Only way...is "IF"...

By golly, you could be a super-star reporter for the Washington Post!

How bout all those Dems in Pennsylvania who voted for Trump (allowing him to be the President today)? So you are insinuating that they are scum of the earth?

What about them? Did I say ALL Dems? No.
Did I say "scum of the earth" in application to ANYONE? No.

My own words (not your words) are sufficient FOR ME to speak FOR ME.

How about them? ooh rah....they have a lawful sitting President that "they" cast their vote for.

What do you think "about them"? I think they voted for whom they decided and the guy they voted for won.

What do you think "about them" ? I think they are pleased their voted FOR candidate won.

What do you think "about them" ? That they voted for Trump, then rioted and destroyed property because the man they voted for WON? I don't. lol

Or a "leak" designed to throw the enemy into a tizzy.

HankD

Come on Hank, Trump is the President of the USA.....a lofty & powerful position. Let him dispatch the spooks to do those jobs & concentrate on getting people back to work, eliminating poverty in this country, education, finance etc. The Russian Intel Agency's are way to smart then to buy leaks from a guy with no experience.....unless he does truly believe he can be Putin ....then he really is delusional.

What they think......a lot of them are discouraged. See they are mostly working class & a tremendous about of them are either unemployed, living on fixed incomes, with no hope. Their hope is Trump and he hasn't preformed....not to their satisfaction. But that's nothing new. They were lied to by Bush, by Obama etc so when they see the Pre Existing Conditions platform Trump & Ryan are trying to push thru, well "we got screwed again"

We will see how it goes, but if I was betting on their supporting Trump again, well don't hold your breath.

Unless they find something substantial, then he is a goner.

Trust an anonymous, unverifiable, source over the President and SOS? Surely you jest.

Not necessarily, but it fits the pattern Trump has set in shooting off his mouth when he should keep it shut.

If leaking classified information to the Russians is so innocent, why did Trump say that Snowden should be executed for leaking information?

Hank....not so serious. My concern is my wife......when that cure comes I will be happy.
EWT have you looked into dietary issues. When I was overly overweight and eating "poorly" my COPD and asthma issues were aggravated. Often times medical doctors are symptomatic and not as sensitive to the issue of diet and healthy living.

Just a thought.

I am praying for you and yours brother.

There are several issues here. I am not going to buy "the sky is falling, the sky is falling" hysterics by Henny Penny and Turkey Lurkey especially with all the code words like "allegedly" and "most likely", etc being bandied about.

These are words which signal the other marxists that this is a rumor being floated to denigrate the president.

Not only that the language that all of us who have had to do with classified information know and recognize is a signal to us that this is a deception at large.

The president is the one in the room who decides what is classified at the moment and what is not when there is a question as related to the discussion even spontaneously.

There is the old clause "for your eyes only".

There are two basic requirements of sharing classified information.
1. Do you have the proper clearance?
2. Do you have the need to know?

Either one or both of these can be overridden by a "your ears/eyes only" given an individual with that power.

IOW even if the Russians in the room did not have the proper clearance the president could immediately and spontaneously override with a "for your eyes/ears only".

Having worked with highly classified material for the government I have had to STOP a meeting until someone of the proper rank granted a temporary clearance for a meeting member to continue on in the discussion.

If that officer or official was there a simple nod of the head would be all that was necessary otherwise that member would have to LEAVE the room.

No one outranks the president.

However for us underlings even to answer a question framed like "was classified information discussed" with a "yes" or "no" answer could possibly lead to my arrest.

This is now the new marxist trick - framing unanswerable questions.

The proper legal answer is "I can neither affirm or deny that question with my answer".
OH, THERE YOU HAVE IT!! The Sky is falling!!!

For this and other reasons, I know this is false news floated to denigrate the president.

OK .... but we live our lives according to the Word of God.

I'm reminded of this in Matthew:

But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No.’ For whatever is more than these is from the evil one.

What an evil world we live in- 'Lament' Even the military academies teach 3 answers to questions. 1. Yes Sir; 2. No Sir & 3. No Excuse Sir

President Trump revealed highly classified information to the Russian foreign minister and ambassador in a White House meeting last week, according to current and former U.S. officials, who said Trump’s disclosures jeopardized a critical source of intelligence on the Islamic State.

The information the president relayed had been provided by a U.S. partner through an intelligence-sharing arrangement considered so sensitive that details have been withheld from allies and tightly restricted even within the U.S. government, officials said.

The partner had not given the United States permission to share the material with Russia, and officials said Trump’s decision to do so endangers cooperation from an ally that has access to the inner workings of the Islamic State. After Trump’s meeting, senior White House officials took steps to contain the damage, placing calls to the CIA and the National Security Agency.

“This is code-word information,” said a U.S. official familiar with the matter, using terminology that refers to one of the highest classification levels used by American spy agencies. Trump “revealed more information to the Russian ambassador than we have shared with our own allies.”

That is all FAKE NEWS, as he did NOT give them any thing that was classified, ad the people in that very room agree!
What IS real news is that we have some moles in Via/Nsa who are still acting like babies that he became President, and keep doing ILLEGAL leakings about him!
