Trump revealed highly classified information to Russian foreign minister and ambassador

[Regular_P]

Every Republican in Washington is complicit in this buffoonery. All of them should be charged with treason.

 

[newarkhiphop]

Not really into politics

What info did he leak and why is this significant?

Someone is probably undercover in ISIS (mostly likely in Syria) and he probably indirectly told the Russians bout this

A few GOP politicians sounding off:

Republicans: Trump classified info reports "troubling"

• Bob Corker: "The White House has got to do something soon to bring itself under control and in order. It's got to happen...Obviously they're in a downward spiral right now and they've got to figure out a way to come to grips with all that's happening." Corker added, "To compromise a source is something that you just don't do."
• John McCain: "It's disturbing" and "We certainly don't want any president to leak classified information but the president does have the right to do that."
• Lindsey Graham: "If it's accurate, it'd be troubling."
• Paul Ryan, via his spokesperson: "We have no way to know what was said, but protecting our nation's secrets is paramount. The speaker hopes for a full explanation of the facts from the administration."
• Marco Rubio said he's "got to go and turn on the recording system in my office," and also said, "I haven't seen the story…Sometimes this stuff is breaking faster than our ability to check online."
• Frank LoBiondo said "Classified Intelligence is classified for a reason and must be respected and protected" and this is "deeply concerning." He said he would raise the issue with the House Intel Committee this week.
• Jim Risch: It's no longer classified the minute he utters it."
• Susan Collins: "Can we have a crisis-free day? That's all I'm asking."

No, especially not in Syria where there is a big civil war happening where Americans are against the current regime and Russia is pro the regime

None of them drawing a line in the sand like usual. Just basic quotes with nothing behind them.

Long story short Russia and US relations are tenuous at best...never that violent but since the beginning of WW2 they've been frenemies...

Russia..the former Soviet Union had good relations with Germany (until Hitler invaded) and Japan and never bought into US exceptionalism and unlike China in the subsequent years never needed the US as an active trading partner...plus Russia meddles in Kazakhstan, Ukraine, the former Yugoslavia...long story short Russia has always told the US to eat a fat dikk.

Your Lord emperor God troll first got played because the Russian press leaked pictures he didn't know were going to get shown.

One of the men is one of Russia's main spies.

We learned today he leaked info that was not supposed to be shown and allies didn't know about.

To answer your main trolling question, no Russia is not an ally. We currently have sanctions against them.

Jim Risch is by far the worst quote of the list

Srs question: What chapter in "The Art of the Deal" talks about divulging state secrets to Russia for no gain?

Trump doesn't know what "state secrets" are. He's totally clueless and inept. This is the exact reasons why "politicians" exist. Yeah, they can be scummy but there are processes, knowledge, and structure to being a government official especially the position of POTUS.
