These treasonous people should have to pay with their lives. I don’t think you can get any worse than being in the intelligence community in service to the president while doing all in your power to try to take him down. They sat through eight years of a foreigner and usurper in the office, yet they want to take down the president who is 100% American and completely for this country. We need to know who put them up to this — our true enemy.

The insiders trying to overthrow our elected government are certainly guilty of the second offense, disclosing classified information, 10 years in prison.

I believe they are guilty of treason, 20 years in prison, although that is for a jury to decide.

Mr. President, you have my support. The only power I have is to pray for you strength and commitment.

Trump may have to resort to a shock and awe roundup if he is actually threatened ie with a coup.

Don’t worry about the press. They are cowards if this whole thing goes “nuclear”. The fake news press has quite a few complicit rogue intel moles at CNN, NYT and compost.

I hope that Trump hires more patriot generals and military to fill cabinet positions and other key posts. He might need them. He needs an ad hoc anti-coup task force if he doesn’t already have one.

“John McCain, I’m hoping.”

I am not a gambling man, but I would put heavy odds-on that McCain and Graham are knee or neck deep in this shadow government.

I’d like nothing more than to see that sniveling little worm McCain perp-walked in cuffs off the Capitol grounds in front of the entire leftist MSM.

I fully believe that the Leaker is Obama.
My thoughts. Obama took a bunch of hard drives with him when he vacated the White House.
Now he’s trickling out leaks of some of the choice items.

John McCain, I’m hoping.

Last week 2/08/2017 was the 25 Anniversary of the Keating 5, where mcpain and 4 other crooked senators stole money, got caught, and mcpain rolled on the other senators to save his ass {much like Viet Nam}.

Mcpain is a liar, a traitor and a thief, he, like jfkerry, also served in Viet Nam.

Hopefully, he will pass quickly in his sleep...this month.

See, I wish him no pain nor ill will, just a peaceful meeting with his God.
