Obama secretly gave military equipment to Russia after Russia invaded Ukraine

Obama secretly gave military equipment to Russia after Russia invaded Ukraine

Judicial Watch reports that the Obama administration had secretly given military equipment to Russia after Russia invaded Ukraine.

I wonder what makes Obama’s supporters happier - the fact that he gave Russia this military aid after it invaded Ukraine, or the fact that he kept it a secret.

Of course if a Republican president did this, the so-called “peace activists” and “anti-war activists” would be livid with protest. But since Obama is a Democrat, they don’t mind at all. I’m sure they’d happily elect him for a third term if he wasn’t term limited by the Constitution.

Actually in a from behind kinda way, they are the most transparent administration ever. After they do what they do, fail at it, and try to change the subject, it is quite transparent. Denying their corrupt actions isn’t opaque! They are right out there to see if you pay attention and don’t mind being called a racist homophobe teabagger who is against global weather shifts and wants to starve 400lb minority women shouting in their obamaphones.

If true, then it has the appearance of being tantalizingly close. But close is all you’ll probably get.

Perhaps the President had to keep his promises for services provided already. Good will and valuable considerations. I’m not saying that that would extend to actual combat equipment, I’m just saying, the circumstances aren’t provided.

Was Reagan’s promise to share SDI technology with USSR once developed treason? Was Iran-Contra treason?

My theory is that the President and only the President has alot of leeway on such issues but can share that leeway with subordinates in certain circumstances. Such as Reagan with Iran-Contra.

That being said, I have tremendous respect for Judicial Watch, particularly when it was run by Larry Klayman. Is he back to running it?

"Although we regret the actions taken in support of the invasion of Ukraine, we wanted to do everything possible to make sure that - once initiated - the invasion was conducted in the safest manner possible."

Unless it was contracts/deliveries already in the pipeline? Otherwise, this is again (Benghazi/Fast & Furious) an example of treason.

There's that "treason" word again...

If you want me to buy the story, you’ll need to say what the ‘military equipment’ was.

“If you want me to buy the story, you’ll need to say what the ‘military equipment’ was.”

Supposedly MILES (Multiple Integrated Laser Engagement System) gear, which is like combining M16s, blanks, and laser tag. Still military tech though.

I wouldn’t be surprised if there was more given over to Russia than training gear.

Cruz and Rand Paul should be shouting this from the effen-rooftops!! Somebody with a big following. Reince Priebus and J. Boehner say nothing at all. John McCain would trash the name of any Wacko-Bird who spoke up about this.

Well, they can't blame it on an anti-Muslim videotape. They already did that.
