Lets do about 300 threads on this please.

AFTER being told this...So if you support rump you are KILLING OUR SOLDIERS

Russia Secretly Offered Afghan Militants Bounties to Kill U.S. Troops, Intelligence Says
The Trump administration has been deliberating for months about what to do about a stunning intelligence assessment.

If about any dem, hell if about most repubs, INSTANT impeachment.

[donkeypoofed]

1. I really think you should capitalize AFTER

I mean, holy cow, how is that not treason, right?

AFTER is an important distinction.

[Eliot Rosewater]

2. Absolutely, changed...can you fucking imagine if Obama did this for his favorite

dictator which he didnt have one of course?

And I bet the news barely talks about it.

If a dem did this the country would be in massive civil unrest.

[BobTheSubgenius]

60. There is no argument that can be made for it NOT to be treason.

But what I also want to know is...how is this not an act of war?

[oasis]

3. 300 DU threads? Howzabout nonstop coverage on CNN & MSNBC?

[Eliot Rosewater]

5. I know, right now NOTHING anywhere that I can see.

[yaesu]

43. and CNN spent how many days talking about Obama's tan suit? nt

[oasis]

51. I was busy during most of Obama's time in office so I "slept"

through the tan suit debacle. It's probably an indication of how much of a nothingburger it was.

[Zoonart]

4. So there goes one treason-weasle excuse for the GOP.

ie:" We were not at war with Russia".... seems like we were. Step right up.... let's get EVERY ONE of the Republicans in the Congress and the Senate on record.

LAST LIFE BOAT... I MEAN OFF RAMP...

[Eliot Rosewater]

6. Here is the rub, 45% of this country does NOT care if rump helps putin KILL our soldiers.

they dont

[Iliyah]

7. I have known for sometime that t-rump have no concerns for Americans . . .

only, maybe, the ones with money and even then he probably dislike them too.

[BlueLucy]

8. This should be all over the news.

This is some treasonous shit!

[Southerntier]

13. Nope. Nothing.

Trying to find this on CNN. Still trying

[Southerntier]

15. Still trying

Should I be looking in the Entertainment section?

[Southerntier]

17. Nope

Heading to sports

[lapucelle]

40. Welcome to DU!

[niyad]

28. Welcome to DU

[BigmanPigman]

31. There is a story in the NY Times

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/26/us/politics/russia-afghanistan-bounties.html#click=https://t.co/Ouq7VUSmpb

[Ilsa]

9. There are a few GOP senators and representatives

I'd like to ask about this, how they feel about it, etc:

Doug Collins
Mike Enzi
Lindsey Graham
Denver Riggleman
Peter DeFazio
Brian Babin
Roger Wicker
Bill Johnson
Barry Loudermilk
Chris Stewart
Don Bacon
Adam Kinzinger
Vern Buchanan
Scott Perry
Jim Inhofe
Mitch McConnell
Tom Cotton
Jim Baird
Mark Green
Michael Waltz
Greg Steube
Steve Watkins

[Eliot Rosewater]

12. EXACTLY, where are the GOP who if this was Hillary would be demanding INSTANT IMPEACHMENT

[Traildogbob]

16. Are these the ones

That spent last 4th of July in Russia? And don’t forget Rand Paul, he took a solo trip. We gonna need a lot of ropes like the one in Bubba’s garage. Shooting is too easy on em. I recommend poorly tied nooses, so we have to try multiple times.

[NewJeffCT]

30. not to mention the GOP senators

who voted to acquit Trump and to never hear witnesses or received documents

[Bernardo de La Paz]

10. Impeachable treason. Force Greed Over People to defend his treason one way or another. . . . . nt

[wishstar]

11. But he has probably decided he believes Putin's claim of innocence over our intelligence findings

[bullimiami]

14. It's going to be the G6 if we don't dump trump.

[Takket]

18. i honestly don't know how he hasn't been impeached already for this.........

this is absolute treason......... paying a bounty on our troops is waging war against them, and doing nothing to stop it is treason. he should be impeached and imprisoned for the rest of his life........

[mcar]

19. Fck this traitor

[BadgerMom]

20. "Nothing to see here, folks,"

is what Republicans tell us about the Putin-Trump relationship. Yet his many actions tell us differently. I wish the election were tomorrow. I can’t stand him being in office one single day more.

[Mr. Ected]

21. I'm in the "Impeach Now" camp

To hell with propriety. To hell with precedent. To hell with civility.

But mainly, TO HELL WITH TRUMP.

Who cares how close we are to an election. Let the impeachment trial be a referendum on his fitness for office; in light of the facts presented by the House of Representatives, how worthy is this man of re-election?

Instead of staged debates or canned media soundbites, let's put the fucker on trial.

The GOP is not expecting it.

Time we Pearl Harbor their asses.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

22. Not too surprised. Trump would probably nuke...

... cities in the USA for personal gain.

[PA Democrat]

23. It is sickening, isn't it?

[Evolve Dammit]

24. Lock the traitor up. He is a threat to democracy and a domestic terrorist.

[paleotn]

25. And the hits just keep coming....

I guess the old adage....elect a clown, get a circus....is really coming home to roost. The Covid-19 debacle that just keeps on keeping on, causing an 1930's era economic crash due to his mind blowing incompetence. The whole BLM protest debacle with NG and active duty military. And now this. Spin your way out of this one, trump trash. The Sunday morning shows are gonna be great fun this weekend.

[warmfeet]

26. A direct threat to the life

on this planet.

When is enough, enough?

I said enough, when orange dick-traitor announced candidacy.

[bringthePaine]

27. putting the big, fat ass in "Russian asset"; time for a good, old-fashioned TT - Treason Trial⚖️

[Eliot Rosewater]

34. Watch for people saying the intel services people should OUT themselves, KGB operatives

or I guess they are now called GRU will say stuff like that

NO, we do NOT want our people outed.

We have these people here, actually...not you...but I just read one.

I wont respond to them, I wont give them the fucking satisfaction.

Support rump, defend him, defend Flynn, any of the above and you are assisting them in KILLING our soldiers.

[SunSeeker]

29. Fucking disgusting TRAITOR.

[Ahpook]

32. Who are these American intelligence officials?

We need them out front and center with these accusations. When these articles are posted like this, it makes it impossible to pass on to Trumphumpers who will not believe it. And I get it!

THEY need to open the flood gates now as this country is in a horrible way. Names, verification, all of it. Let's go! It is time....

Who the hell are these officials?

[DIVINEprividence]

33. Chump is getting his ass kicked in Nov

At that point launch investigations and turn over every rock and make the GOP squirm, if they even exist at that point, and throw the clown in jail. The goal is not victory. The goal is to absolutely destroy and discredit the GOP and their embrace of trumperism so completely they are discredited forever. If we fail at this because of infighting petty squabbles and he loses but it is close, he will try to discredit the results to launch his fascist media network and it will be a problem. F that. Crush him. Destroy him. End this scourge. In 5 years I want nobody admitting they supported trump.

[Stuart G]

35. The Damn has busted, the water overflowing will never be stopped.

If this one gets national publicity, (and it will) Trump will be gone..Especially if this can be proven beyond doubt to all...Good By Mr. Trump, hope the water doesn't hurt you as you go over the damn...See you soon .....traitor ...

[Catherine Vincent]

36. It's finally Breaking on CNN

Heading over to Fox to take a peak.

[superpatriotman]

37. Kick

To make this more visible

[NCjack]

38. Moscow Mitch must send a note to Speaker Pelosi

that says send over any impeachment and the Senate will convict in 5 minutes.

[keithbvadu2]

39. 'Doing nothing/let it ride' is an option... the Trump choice.

'Doing nothing/let it ride' is an option... the Trump choice.

[colorado_ufo]

41. And Trump, with no shred of shame, uses the term, "Do-Nothing-Democrats."

[littlemissmartypants]

42. Absolutely NO ONE should be surprised by this.

Our President is a psychopath. Expect more of the same to be uncovered when Joe Biden becomes our president. This is just one example that miraculously got through the sieve.

[Eliot Rosewater]

44. Just had what I would call a moderate democrat tell me this is not a big deal

because in years past we have killed our enemy, Russians.

WHAT THE FUCK?

Whataboutism that isnt even whataboutism...this is NOT about whether we kill them or they kill us, it is about OUR PRESIDENT helping our enemy kill us.

[littlemissmartypants]

50. People are so crazy stressed out by all the nonsense misinformation

they can't think straight. Some of them never learned to think in the first place and many can't see past their own noses.

Lately, I am seldom surprised by the number of idiots I encounter. That's one reason I'm happily a loner. Plus, self distancing for me is like filling the last empty space on my bingo card.

I completely understand your frustration, Eliot Rosewater. Stay strong.

❤ lmsp

[themaguffin]

45. Nit picky, but added to the G *7*. It's important that we note that.

[Eliot Rosewater]

46. got it

[triron]

47. Hell, Trump is aiding Putin in destroying our nation.

WTF is this allowed??!! Get rid of the fucker.

[Sugarcoated]

48. Is the timeline in the article?

That crooked Donnie knew this well before he pushed to have Putin added?

[UCmeNdc]

49. Putin owns Trump:

Link to tweet

[triron]

52. knr

[triron]

53. kick for visibility

[dlk]

54. When someone has no conscience, they can do anything

We have a psychopath in the WH. Thank you, GOP!

[Eliot Rosewater]

55. And 45 million American voters equally have no conscience.

[dlk]

56. Those with antisocial personality disorder are approximately 5% of the population

The Republican Party is rife with them. As for polls, it depends on the statistical sample. Hard to say how truly accurate some of them are. However, it’s disheartening to see how many truly awful Americans there are.

[Eliot Rosewater]

57. She called them "deplorables." I can think of FAR worse to call them.

And she didnt lose because of that, she had the election stolen from her because it was close enough to steal BECAUSE the GOP and many on the left pounded her with LIES for years.

I know, I changed the subject a bit.

But think about it, all over social media and message boards BEFORE the election were the constant BASHINGS of her.

To the point that some said they would "hold their nose" to vote for her and just Friday I had to STOMACH watching a progressive REPEAT that garbage during the Randi Rhodes show.

NONE of this had to happen.

The courts would NOT be filled with rightwing assholes who are planning on ending ALL rights for everyone but themselves.

I could go on

and on

and on

and on

and on

But she gave ONE speech so we CANT TRUST HER

[dlk]

58. It's the double standard

Sexism and misogyny are as deeply ingrained in our culture as racism. American women are still denied equal civil rights. That’s why I think Biden choosing a woman of color as a running mate might be premature. Sexism & misogyny run so deep that even a white woman who won the presidential election by 4 million votes wasn’t permitted to take office. As for a woman of color VP going on to win a general election, the sad truth is as a country we’re just not there yet, although I hope we get to that place soon. Joe Biden has said he will only serve one term. It will take many Democratic terms to begin to unwind the deep damage done by Trump & the Republicans. We need a VP who can win a general election. I got a little sidetracked here, myself.

[Eliot Rosewater]

59. You better be wrong because I can promise you it will be at least a Woman, probably WOC

I think you are, respectfully, wrong...but it really doesnt matter...

KGB or they now call themselves GRU will knock out our internet and cell structure, to one extent or another (or try, count on it)...

GOP will prevent MILLIONS of patriots from voting, 90% of them will want to vote Democratic ticket but will not be allowed to or if they do vote their vote will NOT be counted.

We can still win in the face of that, but it is a struggle.

[dlk]

62. Biden has said he will choose a woman running mate

I hope whomever he chooses is very successful, no matter their race. I was a huge Hillary fan and was devastated when the election was stolen from her and I would dearly love a woman VP or president. I just think we have far to go as a country not just in matters of race, but gender, too. The gender issues gets swept aside far too often, in my view. I just read today where there are only 6 countries in the entire world where women have equal civil rights (and the US and Canada were not on the list). My point was a candidate having to overcome both race and gender issues may realistically be a bridge too far, given today’s political realities.

[Six117]

61. Scumpy sure does love them troops...

Umm hmm

[AmericanCanuck]

63. He was always a Russian agent

Many in the intelligence community said so and warned us. He was heavily dependent on Russian guarantees for loans from Deutsche Bank.
