1. Are you f'ing kidding me... this should be Treason

we never give up intel sources... never.

[Grasswire2]

2. As Bill Maher said weeks ago: "He's not on our side"

I don't know if we will EVER know the depths of his treachery.

16. Can we start impeachment hearings *now*??

[Duppers]

17. Yes, it is treason and how far up does this go?

Who ordered this?

After treason45 is out, will he be charged? Or will nothing be done because "it would not be good for the country"?

Pelosi wants him imprisoned? How about we impeach him now so that he can be charged? If we wait until after the election and by some wild chance (Russian intervention), he is re-elected, the enthusiasm for impeachment will have waned.

19. Just more of it. Trump has been committing treason since 2016 at least.

So far he has gotten away with it. Insane but the world we evidently live in.

3. I guess that's why the Feds didn't want the tapes and transcripts made public and the

judge agreed.

[SunSeeker]

4. Wow. Like what they did to Valerie Plame, but much more lethal.

Republicans are such evil traitors.

5. So is he the one close to Putin who revealed that Putin ordered the attack on the 2016 election?

6. The Hill article focuses on Mueller having omitted the link between the State Department and

Kilimnik, instead casting him in a suspicious light, thus calling into question the veracity of the report’s “Russia conclusions.”

The article suggests Mueller may have purposefully misled about Kilimnik, and
not to protect him as a source, but to vilify him and “detract” from his value to the State Department.

It also calls Dowd’s claims about Mueller editing his voice mail “compelling.”

Overall, the Hill’s account provides cover for Kilimnik while it urges questioning Mueller’s work.

9. Yeah. Not pushing The Hill thesis. Trying to figure out how/why Hill using the info to challenge

Mueller report. Guess that’s the intended effect the leakers hoped for.
Think if Mueller left out the Kilimnik relationship with State Department, it was to
protect a source, potentially one to be used in a counterintelligence investigation.
Trump and company fed the info to Hill to, as Abramson says, get him neutralized. So, huge.
I’m not clear on it all though, which is why I am putting out The Hill—to get a take on what might be going on.

11. "Always muddy the waters when exposing an intelligence source!"

[struggle4progress]

12. John F. Solomon .. was formerly employed as an executive and editor-in-chief at The Washington Times

He is known for biased reporting in favor of conservatives, and of repeatedly manufacturing faux scandals ...

14. Ah, thanks. The suspicion this raises takes on substance.

That The Hill article was also pushing really hard to make Mueller sound bad for not identifying a secret source.

[DetlefK]

7. Does anyone remember "unmasking"?

[struggle4progress]

10. "Putin says: Give me their names"

[Hortensis]

13. Where's the source for who leaked this protected

information? We'd believe anything of the Trump WH, of course, but should we automatically?

[dawg day]

15. Solomon is a dolt.

"Why Mueller’s team omitted that part of the Kilimnik narrative from its report and related court filings is not known. "

Gee, let me guess. Because they didn't want him to be killed by Putin?

Something that Solomon and his White House or DOJ sources apparently don't care about?

[triron]

20. Yeah, fuck him.
