Trump told Putin about Syria, not Pelosi or Schiff, because "Washington is a leaking machine"

The president also said that countries like Russia had been notified in advance of the raid but Democratic leaders in the Gang of Eight were reportedly not told even though it is customary.

Trump suggested that House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA) and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) were not told because of potential leaks.

“We have notified some and others are being notified now as I speak,” Trump told the press. “We were going to notify them last night but we decided not to do that because Washington leaks like I’ve never seen before. There is nothing — there is no country in the world that leaks like we do.”

He continued: “And Washington is a leaking machine and I told my people, we will not notify them until the — our great people are out. Not just in, but out.”

“The only people that knew were the few people I dealt with,” Trump said.

Trump is narrating this al Baghdadi thing like slaughter porn.

He's enjoying this a little too much.

Steffi DUI Grisham: "John Kelly was totally unequipped to handle the genius of our great President"



The retired four-star general also blasted Trump’s “catastrophically bad idea” of abandoning America’s Kurdish allies in Syria.

The White House quickly lashed out at the former Secretary of Homeland Security.

“I worked with John Kelly, and he was totally unequipped to handle the genius of our great President,” press secretary Stephanie Grisham argued.

Conservative commentator Charlie Sykes blasted the White House statement on MSNBC.

Trump: "I am not concerned with the Impeachment scam because I did nothing wrong"

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump

The Fake Washington Post keeps doing phony stories, with zero sources, that I am concerned with the Impeachment scam. I am not because I did nothing wrong. It is the other side, including Schiff and his made up story, that are concerned. Witch Hunt continues!

Trump's up, and tweeting about impeachment: "Pelosi must turn her District around!"



According to the president, “I can’t believe that Nancy Pelosi’s District in San Francisco is in such horrible shape that the City itself is in violation of many sanitary & environmental orders, causing it to owe the Federal Government billions of dollars – and all she works on is Impeachment … We should all work together to clean up these hazardous waste and homeless sites before the whole city rots away. Very bad and dangerous conditions, also severely impacting the Pacific Ocean and water supply. Pelosi must work on this mess and turn her District around!”

Trump: "Beautiful anniversary dinner for Jared & Ivanka will be totally paid for by me!"

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump

Had a beautiful dinner last night at Camp David in celebration of the 10th Wedding Anniversary of Ivanka and Jared. Attended by a small number of family and friends, it could not have been nicer. Camp David is a special place. Cost of the event will be totally paid for by me!

It's a shame that Potus has to pay for everything. He doesn't even keep his salary. Neither does Jared or Ivanka.
They are trying to help us and some of us show no gratitude.
Such a shame!

You owe millions of dollars to cities all over America where you have held rallies and failed to pay for the police and other services that you hired for the event.

Bragging about picking up the tab for a private dinner is pathetic and insulting and stupid, Donald.
