Nikki Haley reveals Tillerson, Kelly privately discussed resisting Trump: ‘It was offensive’
Fox News ^ | 11/10/2019 | Ronn Blitzer

Former U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Nikki Haley blasted former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly, recalling a private conversation where they defended resisting President Trump, telling her they did so out of necessity. […]

Haley said that the two men “confided in me that when they resisted the president, they weren’t being insubordinate, they were trying to save the country” and how “Tillerson went on to tell me the reason he resisted the president’s decisions was because, if he didn’t, people would die….”

Haley, however, was not impressed.

“It should’ve been, ‘Go tell the president what your differences are, and quit if you don’t like what he’s doing,’” Haley told O’Donnell. “But to undermine a president is really a very dangerous thing. And it goes against the Constitution, and it goes against what the American people want. And it was offensive.” …

Not to me she doesn’t. The damage she has caused far outweighs anything good she says.

She almost single handedly threw the war against history to the Left when she ordered the confederate flag lowered. That emboldened the radical Left like never before and they have been in overdrive ever since. She aided and abetted the enemy within.

She’s scum.

I’m beginning to think I was wrong to think the rogue official was Dan Coats, although I was hoping it would be he, because he is such an arrogant bastid.

I just want to punish all those who wanted to oppose this president and really punish those who wanted to “play president.”

Where do they get such hubris?

It comes from lead and rope deficiency perhaps?
They do not fear God and they do not fear the people.

This is not going to turn out well unless there is some real turning around 1st.

Mollie Hemingway names alleged whistleblower Eric Ciaramella on-air despite Fox News ban

Fox News contributor Mollie Hemingway named the alleged whistleblower Eric Ciaramella on-air following a network ban on hosts and personalities doing so.

Appearing on Sunday's Media Buzz, Hemingway, who is also a senior editor for the Federalist, discussed whether or not the press should identify the whistleblower at the center of impeachment proceedings against President Trump. Despite Fox News banning employees from doing so, she said his name.

This is not the type of information that should have been made public at the time by her. Of course it should have been made known to the President. ONLY.

That is a great question, and I have wondered about it myself. I also wonder how it is in any way relevant to this thread?

[I actually liked the selection of Tillerson, at least for a while. What a disappointment.]

As somebody said, he made the Boy Scouts go gay.

Probably is a closet poofter. It is so weird for people to do that.

Haley is describing a deep state coup.

The discussion related to this coup against Trump. I know for a fact that the Obama administration has heavily armed many beurocrats, including some IRS departments.

I remember Obama administration purchasing huge amounts of ammunition.

It is a very logical question following the discussion of a deep state coup attempt.

Where did they stash their weapons? Purchasing that much ammo does not indicate a bloodless coup.

I am confused. Did she tell Tillerson and Kelly off, or not?
