A whistleblower isn't a "leaker". It's an entirely lawful process and an important part of Congressional oversight. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes |

President Trump:. Hey, that soup was awesome, can I have your recipe?
Japan President:. Sure, but don't give it to Rocket Boy. President Trump:. I promise. |

Just idle speculation, but the news that a Russian informant who was tight with Putin was whisked away with his family recently may be connected to this whistleblower complaint.
If Trump could be construed to have outed the informant by admission of the presence of an informant closely connected with Putin (regardless of whom he told) then the Intelligence agencies who managed the asset would understandably be upset. How you censure a sitting President for this kind of action (if it occurred at all- again speculation) is a mystery to me. |

Sooooo.... Is this more or less serious than Russian collusion? I mean... A non elected official with an agenda making up something? Couldn't happen... I'm guessing "all complaints have to be investigated" View Quote "#metoo" We will get Kavanaugh and the SC right on this! They are sure to be partial to these phantom claims of vagueness! |

I mean...ask Blasey-Ford....very important and noble.

I'm interested what this "promise" was, and who he made it to. It probably wasn't just your usual "Trump gave away classified information...again" because a "Senior Administration Official" would know that the President is the OG OCA and can declassify whatever he wants. It would be stupid...but not illegal...so no basis for a whistleblower complaint. So this would be something different. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

The question that needs to be asked, is when Trump made a promise, were his fingers crossed? Because then, its just the art of the deal.

Wow, you mean the duly elected executive leader of a sovereign country spoke with some other leader of another country and promised them something? As in, the same thing that's happened for a couple hundred years and with every single President?
Oh no, the horror. Jesus man, some of you underscores need to get therapy or pull your head out of your fourth point of contact. ETA: Wouldn't it just be hilarious and blow leftist moron brains if Trump actually promised Putin that we would annihilate them if they got in our way regarding Iran? So much for that dead collusion theory. |

Somebody saying Trump did something at sometime, and some people are looking into it is clearly all the evidence we need. Impeach fo'tay fi!!

Quoted: An "official" call between POTUS and another leader is going to have a bunch of senior natsec people either on the call or in the room with POTUS. View Quote Seriously, look at the current situation: We have no fucking clue what was said or who it was said to, but yours and the media's narrative is already that it must be something truly awful. Poisoning the well. |

A timeline of events from the WaPo that could be helpful: https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/09/19/what-is-trump-whistleblower-complaint-about-heres-helpful-timeline/ View Quote The reporter on TRMS worked for the Post. She was very careful to point out that POTUS has absolute declassification power and to have one on one conversations with other countries leaders. BUT, she nailed him on promising something to the someone on the phone! It was awesome! |

At this point I literally couldn't care less what he said or to whom he said it.
And no I was never a Trump or nothing guy or a Trump is the greatest guy, he was and still is absolutely the correct pick when versing a Clinton. That is simple fact. But after 2 and a half years of this never ending bullshit you bet your ass I am all in on Trump but only because the left and people like the "_" have pushed me to him. |

Someone blows a whistle. The whistle is blown after a woman, who got passed over for a promotion, quit. Because all of the previous Super_Scandals™ have all been totally serious and above board, I am going to guess that this will be the end of his presidency and the world. |
