  1. I think Putin totally played trump on this one. Russia was not going to sign and shortly after trump made his announcement Russia announced their intention to sign. This leaves the US as the worlds pariah on this issue, further isolating us from our dwindling list of allies.

  2. I didn't think I would be interested, in this, but I couldn't help myself. It is a brighter cleaner sound than previous editions, so I definitely think it's worth it for Beatles fans. And...it has replicas of the cut outs that came with the original album.

  3. Our president was as expected at NATO. Shoved the king of Montenegro out of the way so he could be front and center. Harangued NATO members for how much they contribute to NATO (forgetting that essentially NATO territories are pretty much the battlefield NATO was founded to defend) and he is the first president to not commit to defending NATO members. *sigh* looks like Putin is getting his money's worth out of Trump.

     

    Edit: Prime Minister not King.first thing I read about it said king.

  4. While in Israel dumbo mentioned that he never said Israel to the Russians. This kind of confirms Israel as the source of the intel. John Goidman needs to yell at him, shut the fuck up donnie, you're out of your element.

  5. WAPO published story about republicans discussing trump and others being paid by Russians. Ryan's office denied the story....WAPO has tapes of it. Including Rysn pledging everyone present to secrecy. Whoops.

  6. I really hope that when trumper goes for the nuclear football that after he decodes everything hung he only gets a message that says drink more ovalteen. Hopefully the real codes are kept where only an adult can access them.

  7. Except he does. It sucks, but he didn't do anything illegal.

    He does have the right to release US information. Not being privy to the top levels of information myself I would imagine that there is s process/protocol to be followed. Probably included talking to our intelligence agencies and asking if it's ok or is it a good idea etc...

     

    Also in the present case the information was not the United States information to share. So in this case he had no right to release it.

     

    Going forward how many of our allies are going to have second thoughts about sharing intel. Sources will have second thoughts about coming to us with intel. So this move made us less safe and probably has thrown a wrench into our intelligence gathering capabilities.

     

    And, after his minions come out saying the story is false (with plenty of wiggle room to fall back on) the dolt in charge tweets that he did give out the info.

  8. Well now, let's see how the jail Hillary for mishandling sensitive information crowd reacts to today's news. McCain, evetyhe maverick says the president has the right to reveal classified information. No John he does not, especially when the source of the information asked him not to. Pretty soon the US will be flying semi-blind because our allies will not trust us with intel.

  9. "I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot someone and I wouldn't lose voters." be impeached. - President Donald J Trump.

    Exactly, they know it and he knows it. He is the second republican president in a row to believe that if the president does it it is legal. And the party faithful believe it too.

  10. The Russian Trump is meeting with is the guy who the infamous "Dossier" said was Russia's point man in the election interference. Even if everything is totally innocent, the appearances are mind boggling.
