Rand Paul: "TREASON?" Former envoy admits to playing "shell games" to deceive a sitting President
X ^ | May 15 | Sen. Rand Paul

@RandPaul

Treason? You bet it’s worth asking. When a former envoy admits to playing ‘shell games’ with troop numbers to deceive a sitting President, we’re not just talking about policy disagreements. We’re talking about a breach of trust that undermines our republic.

Any Freepers who might know more about this? Please post about it

"Ambassador Jim Jeffrey, the U.S. special envoy for Syria admitted in an interview with Defense One to misleading President Donald Trump about the true number of U.S. troops deployed in Syria and convincing the president not to withdraw troops."

From November 13, 2020 American Military News:

US official admits misleading Trump on US troop numbers in Syria

Gee, little government employees get their feelings hurt so they lie, refuse to follow instructions, leak secrets to the press and try to sabotage operations. Gee honey, what did you do today?

The DOJ needs to bring charges and arrest him.

There is a lot that goes on these days that your founders would have hung the perpetrators for without notice (back in the day)

What has happened?

What’s happened ? Maybe too soft these days

In treason terms this is clear cut if he mislead the Commander in chief

Well, this witness denies it.
I have no idea where the truth is, but this witness claims no treason, but unfortunate untrue statements by Jeffries to the media afterwards.
Basically, that Jeffries did not lie to Trump (treason?), but to the media (I guess, that’s OK), making disparaging statements about Trump.

Why should we accept the now self-serving claim he lied to the media and not to the President of the US? That claim is 100% self-serving and obviously being now made to avoid a very real charge of treason. The interview is an open admission of treason.

Literally he admitted to treason against the US and our President. Time, we hold these people accountable.

When you read most of the article linked to in post number 3, you want Jim Jeffrey shot for treason.

But reading the last two paragraphs, he should just be tied to a stake and whipped for a while.

It took a freeper to Finally report the actual fact involved here. Thanks for doing the original poster’s job and Rand Paul’s job.

Whatever it takes to keep a really expensive taxpayer funded op going in some overseas morass where nothing positive can result is good. Do you have a problem with that?

Firing squad for the lot including the logistics contractors making out to keep these guys supplied.

Treason? The Senator is a bit late. Fellow named Shakespeare named this activity a while back: the arrogance of office.

Of course, Shakespeare was talking about the arrogance of officials appointed by the King. He didn’t know nothing ‘bout the “democracy” we got here now. See, we got us a system built by the Uniparty over the last hunnerd years or so. It ain’t like we got an oligarchy or a King. The People are in charge here. /OFF SARC

Oh, agree with you.
But the truth check:
I noticed in the video, that the witness claimed Jeffries lied to the media.
I do not know anything about this case, but here sen Paul claims treason, but witness disagrees.

Yes, it looks to me that there was a treason committed, but they, for obvious reasons, are trying to deny it.
