30. why now?

What I wonder is, why is this info released now? Who released it? Did someone leak this to the press?

I'd guess there are many, many other examples of Trump's carelessness with our secrets. Are we going to learn about them one incident at a time?

I think it would in an interesting discussion to explore why this might be considered bothsidism Layzeebeaver Oct 2023 #24

Finding an example of a dem doing the same thing Trump did is the very definition of both siderism Blues Heron Oct 2023 #31
