Outgoing 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.
Jeffrey said, We were always playing shell games to not make clear to our leadership how many troops we had there. Jeffrey said the actual number of troops in northeast Syria is a lot more than the approximately 200 troops Trump agreed to keep in the country in 2019

What consequences? Lose security clearance? Fire instead of leaving? Any prosecution possible? Maybe a criminal investigation—at least cost him 10s of thousands in legal bills and make him unemployable.
PDJT had a huge disadvantage coming in 4 years ago. The entire administration has been run by moles.
In the unlikely event that Joke Bidet is certified by the Electoral College, PDJT would have 4 years to assemble a loyal shadow government. And hopefully, a real media network to expose the rats’ lies.
There’s a name for that. Treason.
That said, Trump appointed this guy, even though he was anti-Trump in 2016. Trump failed to clean the swamp, and the swamp got him.
Jeffrey was amongst 50 Republican national security officials who in August 2016 signed a letter stating Donald Trump was not "qualified to be President and Commander-in-Chief" and "would put at risk our countrys national security and well-being", so would not be voting for him.
Nevertheless in 2018 the Trump administration appointed Jeffrey United States Special Representative for Syria Engagement and in 2019 also Special Presidential Envoy for the Global Coalition to Counter the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.

That, I’m afraid is the truth. Its also the end of the country. The corruption is now acceptable and irreversible.
We are a kleptocracy now.
That SOB should be fired for lying to POTUS, right now, and dumped without any pension or benefits.
that could explain Esper and those resignations/firings ?
Have the SOB sent to the front lines in Syria.
this is treasonous behavior.
Love this idea
He should found guilty of treason and executed.

I just had some dipstick on another thread tell me to “calm down” when I said that allowing this electoral fraud to go unpunished would mean the end of this country as we know it.
It is things LIKE THIS that go unpunished, that show just how eroded the rule of law has become due to this “Oh, this is no big deal, this is the way things have always been, it is no worse, life will go on...”
I believe in listening to what Leftists say. They mean what they say, and would do it in a moment if we didn’t stand in their way.
Like the Leftists wanting to start a “list” of people who supported Trump to make them “pay” for their “crimes”.
I am damned sick and tired of people who are fine with this drip drip drip that has flooded our ship.
And we have loads of them on Free Republic now.
