Every one of those six is more worthy of a security clearance than Trump is.
It is personal - they went after Trump hammer & tongs, so now Trump hits back. I do hope Trump does it. Rand Paul had a better idea - EVERYONE loses their security clearance when they leave their gov job.
According to the Trump Administration, ie, Sarah Sanders, they are losing their clearances because they are making a profit off of their clearances, if this is true, shouldn't the Trump family and, Kushner lose theirs as well?
All things being equal the answer would be yes, but the President has the right to be selective and I think he is right to do it. All those Obama appointees politicized government.
So, you see nothing wrong with an enemy's list from the POTUS and, that same POTUS trying to shut people up that might speak out against him by attacking some people who did attack him. If you want that kind of government why not just move to Russia, I'm sure Putin would love to have ya.
Is that the narrative? Let me ask you - were you ok with such a biased, political animal as John Brennan running the CIA?
If so I have to use your words - "I'm sure Putin would love to have ya."........Obama too
Vic, did you watch the Pompeo testimony in front of Congress yesterday? If you didn't then you should, something is wrong in this administration and, it starts at the top.
I did.
Pompeo handled the "Gotchya" question tries really well. Loved his attitude towards some of those "Gotchya" questions, especially his attitude when they just wanted to cut his response in total off. Wouldn't have fit what they wanted if they let him continue.
That's where we disagree I guess, I saw that he was trying to use up each Senators time so that they couldn't follow up on any questions, he was repeatedly asked one question by one Senator three times before giving an answer to that question, the other two times he went off on some kind of rant about something totally different from what was asked and, that question came from a Republican.
To get the "REAL STORY" a longer explanation is ALWAYS needed. MSLWM luvs the quicky blurbs. Those in congress should ALWAYS require....and WANT.... more Info.
So, you think Strzok should have been given more time to answer questions as well, instead of being cut off by Republicans and, harassed by the same Republicans for the whole time he was there? Remember, with Pompeo it was Republicans as well as Democrats that were asking questions and, wanting yes or, no answers, not a bunch of White House rhetoric.
I don't think any of it should have been televised at all. Both were nothing more than a reality TV type trail gone bad. Pompeo did much better than Strzok though.
I watched it and was proud of the Secretary of State
They are free to speak. Let me ask you - have you ever seen a former CIA directory call the President a "traitor"?
You see nothing wrong there?
Not if it appears to be true. Tell me, would you have accepted Obama saying that the U.S. intelligence agency's were all bad actors and, didn't know what they were talking about and, that Putin was a great guy and, should be trusted when he says he isn't trying to hack our elections?
And where is it true?????
Tell me, would you have accepted Obama saying that the U.S. intelligence agency's were all bad actors and, didn't know what they were talking about and, that Putin was a great guy and, should be trusted when he says he isn't trying to hack our elections?
That is a real bad analogy. Obama is the one who politicized all the federal agencies with these very people. Obama was weak on Putin and did tell his #2 man in a hot mic that he would have more flexibility after the election. Do you remember?
How many times have you heard Trump say anything bad about Putin? Let me help you, never. However, Trump has done everything he can to get rid of the Obama era sanctions on Russia and, to return the Russians who were shipped home back in the country. He also invited Russians to the White House to have a meeting with them and, in the process of that meeting he revealed secrets to them. He had a private meeting with Putin in Helsinki were the only people present were Trump and, Putin and, two interpreters and, the interpreters aren't talking about what was said in that meeting, not even Pompeo knows what was said in that meeting and, you don't find any of this strange? Really?
Link to a credible source please.
I remember, I also remember that it was explained but, the people on the Right, that would be you, don't accept the explanation so, I won't attempt to try to convince you again since it would be beating a dead horse.
It's been a long, long time since we had an American President call Russia/the old Soviet Union the "Evil Empire". Most Presidents want to have some type of diplomatic relations with Russia. You want Trump to cuss Putin out. Tell me why?
Trump has done everything he can to get rid of the Obama era sanctions on Russia and, to return the Russians who were shipped home back in the country.
You do know that Trump signed a sanctions bill last August that places sanctions on Russia. You do know that Trump expelled 60 Russian diplomats for the poisoning of a spy in Britain. You do know that Trump ordered Russia to close three of its diplomatic facilities in the US, including its consulate in San Francisco, and two annexes in Washington, DC, and New York City. You do know that the bombing Trump ordered in Syria killed a few hundred Russians. You do know that Trump authorized a $47 million weapons sale in early March. It included Javelin launchers and anti-tank missiles to the Ukrainian government in it's fight against Russia.
He also invited Russians to the White House to have a meeting with them and, in the process of that meeting he revealed secrets to them.
We do share secrets with other governments. We were destroying ISIS
He had a private meeting with Putin in Helsinki were the only people present were Trump and, Putin and, two interpreters and, the interpreters aren't talking about what was said in that meeting, not even Pompeo knows what was said in that meeting and, you don't find any of this strange? Really?
No I don't. I think world leaders need private talks - believe it or not EVEN TRUMP!!!
Link to a credible source please.
I'm not quoting others, I'm speaking for myself. I happen to think that John Brennan is a total partisan, who never should have been in charge of the CIA. I think that Eric Holder was a black supremacist, who never should have been in charge of the DOJ. I think that James Comey, Loretta Lynch and James Clapper were also ideologues who never should have led those agencies. I'm sure you thought otherwise.
I remember, I also remember that it was explained but, the people on the Right, that would be you, don't accept the explanation so, I won't attempt to try to convince you again since it would be beating a dead horse.
You are right....You can't tell me anything about Obama.
Anyone else notice that this list is comprised of ALL Americans? No Putin, that's for damn sure.
At the top op it is a deeply partisan man who once ran the CIA. He has lied to congress and even put a double agent at risk. now he calls the President of the United States a traitor. Yup, HE SHOULD HAVE HIS SECURITY CLEARANCE TAKEN AWAY!
Comey and McCabe should be the first two to have their clearances pulled. Oh wait, they don't have clearances..
Another case of the administration doing their homework....
Next thing is that Trump will be asking for a loyalty pledge when you are issued a clearance...Oh wait, sounds familiar.
So I guess the trump team and the Mueller team are negotiating about questioning trump. But team trump wants any and all questions relating to obstruction of justice, banned. Gee whiz, I wonder why????!!! LMAO!!!!!
Michael Hayden only worked in the Obama administration for a couple weeks at the start of the first term in 2009. What is he doing on this enemies list?
Well, he's gone on tv criticizing Trump, but more than that -
Trump's security clearance 'hit list' is little more than 'chum' thrown out for the base.
Trump enemies list? Holy crackers! Wouldn't that include 99.9% of the people that went into financial transactions, businesses or performed actual labor for Trump or his projects?
Americans being targeted for speaking out against another American?
We should all agree this is disturbing.
The Night of the Long Knives.....
The wannabe dictator is more paranoid than Nixon, the same actions didn't work then and they are not working now. The evidence is mounting by the hour and the number of guilty pleas and indictments are just beginning.
