The Left is in serious trouble and it's panic time.

If they fail to take back the house in the midterms, the Trump train will roll to even greater successes and, in 2020, Trump will be unstoppable.

Given that sad state of affairs (for them), they are going to ramp up the volume until they are screaming at the top of their lungs.

If lefties like Kirsten didn’t spend 95% of their time trying to talk down and suppress the speech of conservatives, I might listen. Truth is, conservatives love fair, open debate with leftists. When the debate is fair, conservatives ALWAYS win the debate.

Democrats are typical punks. They pick fights then whine like babies when they get hit back twice as hard.

Kirston, what Trump cares about is that Brennan was using his security clearance to give the impression that his whacky accusations about Trump were based on his (Brennan's) insider knowledge of national security intelligence.

That's a very serious matter.

A lot of folks think Trump has been overly patient with Brennan and his ilk.

No, Kirsten, that’s the left, not us.

Oh good grief, it’s the Left projecting again. They’re trying to shut down free speech.

My tagline continues to be proved accurate...

“INSIDE EVERY PROGRESSIVE IS A TOTALITARIAN SCREAMING TO GET OUT”

Security clearances equate to Free Speech for liberals, socialist, communists in that one can have an unsecured server and computer to email back and forth, one can enter the National Archives and leave with classified info in their socks with no repercussions, one can be the darling on the news shows with all the secret goings on in their head, and finally they can know all about YOU or your favorite congressman and hold it over your head the first time you disagree with them.

She should be asked if she supports punishing hate speech.

How do security clearances equate to free speech?

I think they are arguing that if they disagree with a planned government action, they have the right to be informed about it before it happens - and Trump is preventing poor Brennan from serving as the next Daniel Ellsberg.

So wait - the leftist orgs, FB, Twitter, Google, YouTube, college campuses, newspapers, CNN, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, ABC, et al. strive to silence conservatives while misinforming the public with DNC propaganda, but she thinks that Trump is against free speech?

What planet does this woman come from?

If political hack Brennan has a constitutional right to a security clearance, then we all do.

Also, show me where that is written in the first amendment.

The saddest part about all of this is that every liberal out there doesn't realize that by continually projecting what they'd be doing were they in office (rather than what the President is actually doing), they are making a 24/7 advertisement as to why not to vote for Democrats.

‘We're banning free speech left and right, so the President also must be doing that by revoking our inside sources in the media from access to unfiltered and invented intelligence that most likely is utterly false.’

What's that sound? Another couple former liberals getting ready to vote against Democrats this fall...

When one gets confused between one’s ass and a hole in the ground one can be expected to miss other distinctions as well.
