Motherfucking Trump sold the names of our foreign spies and sources, didn't he?

Motherfucking Trump.

"Last year, a top-secret memo sent to every C.I.A. station around the world warned about troubling numbers of informants being captured or killed..."

[SheltieLover]

1. Not a doubt in my mind.

[50 Shades Of Blue]

2. Putin probably didn't have to pay!

[onecaliberal]

3. Yes, of course.

[Karadeniz]

4. I had not heard about the informant losses. Dreadful.

[Boomerproud]

53. We don't have investigative journalism anymore.

This story is too hot for them to handle.

[Karadeniz]

57. Exactly. Too hot. One of the memos was said to be a leak, if I remember.

[Evolve Dammit]

81. yep.

[Poiuyt]

54. Has the loss of informants been verified?

I hadn't heard about it either.

[Karadeniz]

56. Two items appeared on DU. One mentioned Pakistan as being a problem. Also, China has known

who and where to go to find informants, highly targeted.

[Lonestarblue]

61. The NYT has an article today with lots of information.

Here’s the gift version.

[Poiuyt]

62. Thanks!

[Liberal In Texas]

5. The man doesn't do anything that doesn't make him money.

Or get him laid.

I doubt hording classified information about humint resources was going to get him laid.

He took these documents to make money with them. There can be no other reason.

[calimary]

68. And this earned him a lot more than 30 pieces of silver.

[gratuitous]

6. Keep saying it until the former guy denies it

He hasn't denied it yet, has he? And it better be a plausible and effective denial, not just a wounded squawk of "Fake news."

[moondust]

7. More on that memo last year.

The CIA sent a top-secret cable warning agents that too many informants were getting killed or turned into double agents, report says

[ultralite001]

8. So is it possible TFG is guilty of...

negligent homicide -- if his actions lead/led to deaths of agents and/or informants???

Granted, TFG doesn't give a flying fxxx... and believes he is invincible...

He did say:

I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody,
and I wouldn't lose any voters, OK?"... "It's, like, incredible."

Perhaps it's time to prove his theory...

That is all...

[Collimator]

26. And apparently, he could sit his ass right there at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. . .

. . and give away the lives of American operatives and still be lauded as The Once and Future President by MAGA world.

[ultralite001]

27. T H White...

would not be amused...

That is all...

[Conjuay]

48. American operatives...and about a million others...

[OMGWTF]

34. This fking guy murdered over a million Americans

with his Covid denial bullshit. Hanging is too good for him.

[dalton99a]

9. Kick

[wnylib]

20. Couldn't have been too top secret if it is so well known.

[gab13by13]

10. What would be nice

would be if 5 Eyes intercepted any of the communications.

[Fullduplexxx]

He needs to be hanged

[Botany]

12. And didn't a number of Russian Oligarchs who had doubts about Vlad Putin die in the last 1.5 years?

Along with some members of the Saudi Royal who have been arrested by MBS and God only knows
what happened to them too.

[BOSSHOG]

13. As usual Keith is right. My Senator (incredible dumbass) Roger Marshall is fine with that

Feel free to list your Senator(s) who is/are fine with their religious and political leader getting Americans murdered on behalf of the REPUBLICAN PARTY

[wnylib]

21. My Senators are Schumer and Gillibrand, fortunately.

[KS Toronado]

31. Wish we could find a way to get rid of Marshall

He's worthless as a Senator, just doing it for the $$$$$$$

[BOSSHOG]

50. And now Marshall is a big supporter of kobach

Who he recently called a gift to the dems.

[KS Toronado]

59. I put Marshall in with the likes of Gym Jordan types

Worthless Rs in congress.

[NoMoreRepugs]

32. Scott and Rubio, just typing their names brings bile

to my mouth.

[Bettie]

51. Same with Grassley and Ernst

who both think TFG is the bees knees....to use a phrase from Grassley's young adulthood.

[BlueIdaho]

14. He needs to be tied to a post

And shot in the head. He is a fucking traitor.

[FoxNewsSucks]

16. No shit!

Same for every piece of shit still supporting that traitor.

[OMGWTF]

35. No.. Shitler needs to be cleaning prison toilets and eating gruel

for the rest of his miserable life. Death is an act of extreme kindness for what this malignant motherfker has done.

[BigmanPigman]

42. I volunteer.

It would be a pleasure, however I'd much rather see him suffer in agony while still on this planet.

[Wednesdays]

80. You let him off too easily

Here are some suggestions:

[brush]

15. Roland99, pls keep re-posting this as it's not getting enough attention.

trump has most likely been the cause of many agents deaths as he had humint info in his basement. Info easily turn into cash.

17. holy shit! nt

Captured, Killed or Compromised: C.I.A. Admits to Losing Dozens of Informants
Counterintelligence officials said in a top secret cable to all stations and bases around the world that too many of the people it recruits from other countries to spy for the U.S. are being lost.

[bringthePaine]

23. must be made into a deterent example to all, forever, whatever that may require

[BComplex]

55. I agree. The USA needs to make a major example of trump.

In fact, he needs to face the death penalty.

[PlutosHeart]

58. I hate to say it

but I agree.

[Abigail_Adams]

82. I don't hate to say it

at all. But it's too easy a way out for him. Life at hard labor. He'll die of a heart attack soon enough.

[LowerManhattanite]

24. Good God.

I’ve been saying all along that we can’t ever know just how bad he sold us out.

Been saying that since the Mueller investigation—which I have a feeling we’ll be seeing more of soon—unredacted and non-BS “Cliffs Notes”-ed as another strand to tie this awfulness up in the sh*t-colored bow it’s deserves. The release of Barr’s bullsh*t summary reasons memo is the start of it I think.

If we were told just how badly he dimed sh*t out to stay ahead of his interest payments, it’d utterly delegitimize what little standing we have in the intelligence spheres.

And I don’t think we can afford for that to happen.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

25. Wow. Just wow. Reminding everyone that on 11-15-2017

A group of brave Democrats introduced articles of impeachment against trump Their logic is still true today. He has gone from 0 to 90 since then

[orleans]

28. (changing the subject for a moment-- i saw your cloud photo posted by someone i follow

on twitter the other other day--your name was attached to the pic.) (i can't remember who tweeted it but i thought that was pretty cool--wanted to let you know)

[Laura PourMeADrink]

75. Anyone who doesn't appreciate this picture

needs a complete visual checkup, including for tritanopia. I agree it is splended.

[crickets]

79. Wow! Gorgeous! nt

[moniss]

30. Our allies likely also

lost informants of their own.

[ZonkerHarris]

36. Keith's new daily podcast version of COUNTDOWN is a breath of fresh air and snark.

I missed his take on things and now he has no network overlords telling him what he cant do.

44. He knows who signs the paychecks at MSNBC and CNN...

39. 2019 Salon: Trump WH asked ODNI for list of top American spies

[link:https://www.salon.com/2019/08/03/trumps-white-house-issues-an-ominous-request-for-a-list-of-top-u-s-spies_partner/|

he Trump White House has asked the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) to provide it with a list of top American spies at a time when President Donald Trump is looking to install a loyalist as his new intelligence chief.

The Daily Beast reports that the administration wants the ODNI to deliver an inventory of “all its employees at the federal government’s top pay scale who have worked there for 90 days or more,” although it has not offered an official justification for why it wants the office to do this.

46. Purging non loyalists? In the worst possible way

[Cheezoholic]

40. Fuck jail time

Put the fucker on a chicken processing production line, him and his family and the fucking clown car of sociopaths that are arrogant enough to think they're invincible. Let the abused meat packing workers process all of them so they end up fried and dumped into 21 piece buckets and force fed to the fucking traitors that bought bullshit.because they were duped? They think the same way. Fuck 'em all, fuck everyone of these motherfuckers.

Why! The POTUS Sold Classified Information to the Enemies!

[malaise]

70. KO may be correct

Rec

[Grokenstein]

71. Of course he did! They were assets! Assets exist to be exploited! That's business! /s

And the fact that it involved betrayal and lots of people getting killed just made his toadstool turgid!

[PurgedVoter]

72. Since TFG brags about his moves, how many secret service men overhead this stuff.

If TFG carried a sheet of paper with names on it, what are the chances that someone helped him make the copy. He isn't the only traitor that was in the White House. I wonder who else might have helped him. Probably someone given security clearance without being properly cleared. That would be my guess.

[wiggs]

73. Yes, and he'll do it again. nt

78. Keith has been on fire!

Especially on his Countdown podcast! You should all listen!

And do you like the music? One of the people responsible for that is Brian Ray, one of Paul McCartney's guitarists. (If you're here, hi Brian!!)
