The liberal network shows were all busy Sunday morning pushing accusations and speculation about President Trump and his adviser Jared Kushner. Their discussion was drive by more anonymous sources telling The Washington Post that Kushner tried to set up a backchannel discussion between Trump and the Russians to talk about Syria. CNN even accused the action of being “treasonous.” The hysteria was also present on NBC’s Meet the Press, but theirs was shattered by The Wall Street Journal’s Kimberley Strassel after she introduced facts to the discussion.
“I think we are having a discussion that is absolutely divorced from reality this week. It is astonishing,” she quipped as she reminded them of how then candidate Obama (not President-elect Obama) set up a highly covert back channel with the Iranians:
Let me set the scene for you: It’s 2008, we are having an election and candidate Obama, he’s not even president elect, sends William Miller over to Iran to establish a backchannel, and let the Iranians know should he win the election they will have friendlier terms. Okay? So this is a private citizen going to foreign soil, obviously in order to evade U.S. intelligence monitoring and establishing a backchannel with a sworn enemy of the United States who was actively disrupting our efforts in the military in the Middle East.

Which means no you haven’t. Those of us who have have no problem saying so.
IF you had then you would know that the question arc that he answered no to involves being a foreign agent, having contact with foreign agents, being married to or closely related to foreigners from specific countries, etc etc
Go spread more rumors and gossip
If you know the section then go reread it
Yet the constant negative drumbeat about Trump may take its toll.
The only toll it’s taken is a reduction in viewership for so-called “news”. People aren’t that dumb.
It means...I am not going to answer the question.
So explain to me why his meeting with an ambassador does not need to be listed. If I was on my computer I would post a graphic of the section.....its pretty clear..it needed to be listed
Rummychick has been on this site for YEARS there are many here that are very uncomfortable with the policies of both Ivanka and Jarad we are ALL entitled to our own opinions frankly I feel Ivanka is to INVOLVED in this administration but that is my opinion I did not vote for her or her policies!!!!
Obama wasn't president elect, while Kushner was part of president elect Trump's team.
Beyond that, and for good reason, Trump didn't trust the Brennen lead CIA.
When I am on my computer..I am going to post the graphic..and ask you to explain your ridiculous assertion that kushner didnt need to list a meeting with the ambassador.
Sorry..he was a private citizen....and he wanted to use russian equipment to avoid US intelligence..and lied on a security form
If you dont understand the gravity of that..I suspect you will soon
But what obama did was wrong as well..and likely messed up what bush was trying to do...
Since I pulled out my copy of my own applications I don’t need a computer.
Because Kushner was doing business with a foreign counterpart that was directly related to govt business by the president elect.
Section 20b has multiple points.
Go tell stories about Barron being gossiped about in the tabloids. It’s what you are best at.
You won’t answer the question because you have never filled one of these out. Any rime there are questions there is a direct contact that will answer questions.
I know you don’t like anything about Trump but your crankiness and efforts to stir the pot aren’t becoming
Obama, he’s not even president elect,
sends William Miller over to Iran to establish a backchannel,
and let the Iranians know should he win the election they will have friendlier terms. Okay?
So this is a private citizen going to foreign soil, obviously in order to evade U.S. intelligence monitoring and establishing a backchannel with a sworn enemy of the United States who was actively disrupting our efforts in the military in the Middle East.
Odd how hysterical pajama boys at CNN and MSNBC like Chris Matthews 'missed' this one...Anyone remember Morning Joe freaking out?
You are not correct. ...I will try to remember this..(but will probably forget)..and come back to you after this plays out
The Obamanerd is just a candidate——and sending messages to our enemies that he’d be their pal.
Looks like he knew....massive voter fraud was gonna elect him.
Why do people here not understand that using a cutout is far different than going into an embassy and using electronic gear to avoid US intelligence...and it was a felony to cover it up.
Btw..what obama did was wrong too

Do you mean... a “felony” too?
Presidential candidates can't talk to foreign leaders? Really?
....and he wanted to use russian equipment to avoid US intelligence..
US intelligence was being controlled by crooked, snooping, lying and law breaking political hacks.
and lied on a security form
Kuschner did say the following to the FBI...
Beyond all that, it is the president who Kushner and the FBI report to. It is the president who presumably ordered Kushner to make these contacts. And thus it is the president who is served by security clearance forms.
Was Kuschen keeping secrets from President Trump when he filled out the form. Of course he wasn't!!
Private citizen who contacted ambassador of a hostile nation to use their SCIF to avoid US Intelligence...and didnt report it on a security form
Path of least resistance is to shrug my shoulders to people who dont understand ramifications and say..lets let it play out
At the very least..you should be focusing on who leaked it
Speculation = Gossip
Just to try to show something...remember the hannity forgotten man painting story..and all the posts saying trump was still a private citizen and could keep the painting...
Who pays salaries of transition team????
Kushner was a private citizen . I actually give him the benefit of the doubt here..because he was just being a naive fool..versus those who are trying to turn him into he was a russian spy..etc
he did nothing wrong.
...and didnt report it on a security form Path of least resistance is to shrug my shoulders to people who dont understand ramifications...
It's you who doesn't understand the purpose of a security form.
The FBI works for the Chief Executive, President Trump. Trump does NOT work for the FBI.
Security policy is set by the President. Security clearances are the responsibility of the president. Security forms are the responsibility of the president.
The purpose of the security clearance questionnaire is to serve the president and his policies.
If Kushner was keeping contacts secrets from the executive branch (similar to Kelly) then he would be in the wrong. But in this case he was working directly for the Chief Executive, President Trump.
I don't think that you understand that.
Look, I don't like Kushner, but under the Constitution, we have three separate branches of government, and I'm not for the usurpation of presidential powers by the Deep State.
Answer honestly
Are you on Citalopram?
...2008, we are having an election and ...
Obama, he’s not even president elect,
sends William Miller over to Iran to establish a backchannel,
and let the Iranians know should he win the election they will have friendlier terms. Okay?
So this is a private citizen going to foreign soil, obviously in order to evade U.S. intelligence monitoring and establishing a backchannel with a sworn enemy of the United States who was actively disrupting our efforts in the military in the Middle East.
fyi - any idea how Chris Matthews and/or CNN and Jeremy Peters would respond to this? My guess is the liars would look away and pretend it was somehow 'different'...
