I would kick everyone off the line if it were intended to be a private conversation.

Anyone know the modern version of the 80’s 90’s era “Motorola STU III” secure telephone unit ??

The 15 minutes of fame for someone with a high security clearance and who probably has sign non-disclosure paperwork should be a stiff penalty at the very least.

Recall this guy, take him to courts-martial, reduce him in rank and retire him at a much lower pay grade.

If he was enlisted this breach of trust would be under serious discussion.

I overheard NPR’s ‘Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me’ this morning and the first few minutes were absolute, vile slurs against the President. Why do we fund an openly Marxist propaganda outlet? Why are we forced to do this?

“Why are we forced to do this?”

Because we allowed it.

That’s why.

“I was President Bill Clinton’s Air Force military aide from 1996 to 1999,” Patterson told The Epoch Times, explaining that he lived and worked in the White House while serving Clinton.

I'll bet there's lots of commie leftovers from 'other' administrations too. It's time to clean house.

So using the Whistle blower Law is a way of hiding the person guilty of "setting up the President".

Somehow, I smell Comey. He knows the routines.

Patterson's book, Dereliction of Duty, should be required reading for those supporting or critical of the Clintons.

yes but ... Clinton was a democrat and stuff like that is not an issue, like taking cash orders for military secrets from the Chinese.

DJT is the Republican who stole the election from the beloved Hillary and is subject to far higher standards - especially if something could be used to get rid of him.

As long as President Trump does nothing to rid himself of the left over swampers in his administration that are trying everything possible to get him removed from office, things aren’t going to change and eventually the swampers will succeed.

I am fored to surmise that Trump can’t do what he wants to do to these cretins until he’s won a second term. It was predictable and predicted that Trump would suffer if he didn’t slap these Treasonites down HARD.

He would have to fire about 80% of .fedgov to do that.

He is HATED by career technocrats and .gov workers. To the point I hope he starts using private security after he leaves office.

Everyone in DC views Trump as an evil madman, and a clear threat to their continued employment.

At that point, what do you do?

Scorched earth!

It is my belief that the American people are strong enough to pick up the pieces and rebuild. If they are not, then they have no right to survive as a nation.

You do what any sensible conservative ought to do: ask Hillary!
