They turning heel on da donald
@jdawsey1: Huh? Kim Guilfoyle goes on the record and says she's in talks to become press secretary & wishes Spicer "the best." https://t.co/AdFtFNxnxy
A senior German lawmaker has expressed concern about reports that President Donald Trump revealed highly classified information about the Islamic State terrorist group to Russian officials.
Burkhard Lischka said in a statement to the Associated Press that "if it proves to be true that the American president passed on internal intelligence matters, that would be highly worrying."
Lischka, who sits on the German parliament's intelligence oversight committee, noted that Trump had access to "exclusive and highly sensitive information including in the area of combating terrorism."
The Social Democratic Party lawmaker said that if the US president "passes this information to other governments at will, then Trump becomes a security risk for the entire Western world."
Germany is heavily dependent on US intelligence.
Trump used Twitter on Tuesday morning to defend his sharing of information with the Russians. He said he wanted to share with Russia "facts pertaining to terrorism and airline flight safety." He noted that as president, he has an "absolute right" to do this.
The Washington Post reported Monday that Trump divulged highly classified "code-word" information that could enable the Russians to trace the source of the intelligence.
Trump added a line in his tweet suggesting why he did it: "Humanitarian reasons, plus I want Russia to greatly step up their fight against ISIS & terrorism."
The disclosure late Monday drew strong condemnation from Democrats and a rare rebuke of Trump from some Republican lawmakers. White House officials denounced the report, saying the president did not disclose intelligence sources or methods to the Russians, though officials did not deny that classified information was disclosed in the Wednesday meeting.
The Kremlin has dismissed the reports as "complete nonsense."
Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov on Tuesday dismissed the reports as "yet more nonsense" and said Moscow didn't "want to have to do anything with it," adding that "there is nothing to confirm or deny." Maria Zakharova, the spokeswoman for the Russian foreign ministry, on Facebook on Tuesday described the reports as "yet another fake."
American national security experts reacted with alarm to the news. Trump, as president, is legally allowed to essentially disclose classified information to whomever he wants. But the fact that the information he shared was not a US secret, but that of an American ally, may complicate his authority to declassify information at will.
You live in Texas, my G.calling trump supporters a "basket of deplorables" is an understatement, the majority of them are uneducated and don't understand modern American politics let alone geopolitics. Trump supporters for the majority are very uncultured and from rural areas, too stupid to understand their hate was used as a cheap shot to the electoral process. Pitiful to say the least, fortunately there is strong forces working against this presidency, its all a matter of time now.
Yiu are SEVERELY underestimating how many upper middle class white folk voted for Trump, my g.
I know a white woman, feminist, college educated, working at a bulge bracket bank, pulling in $225+ easily at 26...
That voted for Trump.
Plenty more stories, but I caution people in thinking that its just a group of folks in west Virginia.
Nah, b. They're out there heavy.
You live in Texas, my G.

You won't be able to read the article due to the language but this is a well respected newspaper here and a NATO official has confirmed to the paper that they are changing the protocol for the upcoming NATO meeting with Trump. They will reduce speaking times to 2 to 4 minutes and will use a timer to make sure of that.
However he declined to confirm the reason is a lack of confidence in Trump's attention span. He simply gave "diplomatic reasons" as an answer.
I agree with everything except the feminist part. I don't know one feminist that voted for Drumpf. They are all very vocal progressives around my way.
I can imagine the white, corporate, "lean in" sort of feminists supporting Trump because he's "good on business." Genuine, bonafide, intersectional feminists though, they were all against Trump.
The source of the classified info that trump leaked?
Israel.
I'm sure that will go over well.
Israel Was Source of Secret Intelligence That Trump Gave to Russians, Officials Say
WASHINGTON — The classified intelligence that President Trump disclosed in a meeting last week with Russian officials at the White House was provided by Israel, according to a current and a former American official familiar with how the United States obtained the information. The revelation adds a potential diplomatic complication to the episode.
Israel is one of the United States’ most important allies and a major intelligence collector in the Middle East. The revelation that Mr. Trump boasted about some of Israel’s most sensitive information to the Russians could damage the relationship between the two countries. It also raises the possibility that the information could be passed to Iran, Russia’s close ally and Israel’s main threat in the Middle East.

Pence is actually well liked by top officials here. When Mattis and Pence came here earlier this year our politicians were very positive about both of them. They noted that Pence's rhetoric was distinctly different from Trump and that he made assurances that reduced some of their concerns.Things like this is why I'd gladly take MiKKKe Pence over Trump (this is how far we've fallen). Dude might be a complete bigot and religious freak, but at least he has the intelligence and composure to not do dumb @#$@ on a daily basis like the current idiot in office right now.
Think for a second, your comment has nothing to do with Rex's point.I agree with everything except the feminist part. I don't know one feminist that voted for Drumpf. They are all very vocal progressives around my way.

Trump won da entire white women vote vs Clinton.

I bet Bibi's bigoted *** misses Obama right now.
All that work Obama put in over 8 years to make foreigners like us again, gone, undone in mere months
America is addicted to idiot leaders, like a junkie addicted to Oxy. The Obama years was just a time where we went to rehab and had our act together for a while.
Now we are back injecting dat orange heroin straight into our veins.
