I don't agree with her conservatism, but I love her rabid opposition to Trump and her great IC sources from her time in the British parliament.

I also like who she is allied with on Twitter.

And how the Russian boot lickers hate her on Twitter.

I'm not that familiar with her--has she been right about anything that she tweets? Mrs. Overall Jul 2017 #36

She has great sources eh? awesomerwb1 Jul 2017 #39

"death penalty, for espionage, being considered" MGKrebs Jul 2017 #62

it's the Fox News mentality NewJeffCT Jul 2017 #86

Her sources may be telling her that, but if so, her sources are for shit. onenote Jul 2017 #67

You would think so... but of course we can't agree on that at all. FBaggins Jul 2017 #69

I've been in her corner quite a bit....but she seems to really be putting the cart before the horse cbdo2007 Jul 2017 #70

Lol, what happened to that thread throwing shade on this one cwydro Jul 2017 #75

Chelsea Manning was found guilty of espionage for her leaking. pnwmom Jul 2017 #76

And was the death penalty sought against her? onenote Jul 2017 #89

No, because of the nature of her offense. Are you certain Bannon hasn't done anything much worse? pnwmom Jul 2017 #90

The Law is Clear. onenote Jul 2017 #91

No, the law applies even outside of war time. pnwmom Jul 2017 #92

I quoted the language you seem to think I didn't know about onenote Jul 2017 #93

I said "no" to your comment about war time. I never claimed we were in war time, so that pnwmom Jul 2017 #94

Again, the issue isn't whether a prosecutor COULD seek the death penalty for espionage onenote Jul 2017 #97

How can you know what Mueller might consider without knowing what Bannon might have done? pnwmom Jul 2017 #99

What is it that you can imagine Bannon did that would give rise to an espionage claim onenote Jul 2017 #100

I'm not IMAGINING Bannon did something that could give rise to an espionage charge. pnwmom Jul 2017 #103

We should, but it won't happen. Foamfollower Jul 2017 #78
