We are a group of like-minded people that gather to discuss a host of topics from weight loss, to current events. Our thread celebrates liberal diversity, welcomes new friends, and respects all opinions. We count everything from calories to points but, we never count our chickens before they've hatched!

The "Slimeball in Chief" is going to get away with Treason, isn't he!?!?!....plus, obstruction of justice & so much more. If I hear the phrase, " This is certainly concerning" again, I think I will scream... Ya, think!!!...The GOP leadership, The Republican Congress, The WH Cabinet, the WH Staff, the basket of deplorables,& everyone else inbetween, who still think it's ok for JA to get away with all this, well, shame on you. What a bunch of narrow minded hypocrites !!!...

So Trump is tweeting that he had a humanitarian responsibility to share the info with the Russians. Well, that will probably be the last classified information from any of our allies he shares (at HIS discretion and w/out permission) because no one will ever tell us anything ever again. He probably just got that agent killed. Do you really think they are going to share intell that may save American lives now? Nope, and I bet other countries will think twice as well. Republicans in congress better wake up and wake up NOW.

You know what I am tired of hearing @lka5? Obama did this or Clinton did that. Obama is no longer President and Clinton lost the election people!!! This just compromised NATIONAL SECURITY! It really doesn't get any more serious than that.

The responsible humanitarian thing to do, would be for JA in Chief to resign & crawl back under his rock never to be seen or heard again. The next step would be to throw out all the spineless Republucans in Congress who refuse to face up to the fact they have a dangerous president. Actually I wish SOMEBODY would start proceedings to throw "dum azz " in jail....
Totally agree. The time for blaming President Obama & Hilary for everything is long past, but the deplorables have nothing else to offer up for the guy they put into office, so they will continue to do so.
UGH! What a depressing mess ....😡

" well, shame on you. "
Linda, they have no shame. Plain and simple. If they did we would have noticed it by now.
Remember during the campaign when the JA bragged he could stand on a street corner in NYC and shoot somebody and people would still vote for him? He was correct. He could get away with murder and still have adoring crowds. I have a sinking feeling something like that could have just happened and you know what? People still support him.
I've had goose bumps from the top of my head to the bottom of my feet since I heard about this wondering what kind of country I live in these days. I agree this guy has gotten away with treason and half of America keeps cheering him on while the other half, along with the rest of the world, quakes in their boots.

"The responsible humanitarian thing to do,"
I'm back. lol. Linda, this guy isn't responsible or humanitarian. It's not in him. He's a power hungry, greedy, and dangerous loose cannon that just happens to be sitting in the Oval Office. As soon as I heard what happened I had this vision of an unattractive and unpopular pathetic little boy who finally convinced the cool kids to come play with him in his room because he had a secret. A really, really good secret.

Did anyone see the speech he gave at the Peace Officers Memorial service yesterday? When he was introduced to the crowd he stood up and pointed around as if it was a rally and everyone showed up for him. Then he threw a hat out into the crowd at someone proving he has no class or tact or anything even close to any of that. I think I saw it on Occupy Democrats if you want to see the video.

He needs to be adored. It's all about him. Every time he goes to an event, even a memorial, it's still about him. The only person he cares about is himself. The people that go to his rallies, and everything is a rally including a memorial, are the people that should hang their heads in shame for cheering on such a disgraceful person. Obviously, they don't have any shame either. I'm ashamed for them. |

Mitch McConnell & Paul Ryan need to be tarred & feathered & thrown to the curb!...spineless blobs they both are!... They will be working overtime to make sure JA gets a pass on this latest controversy. McMasters press conference was a joke. Standing up there smirking & laughing. Good grief! Hope he's still laughing when he's run over by that JA's bus! So, Israel was the source of the Intel JA blabbed! Wonder how his trip there will go in a few days!

Just shaking my head at what a mess this Administration is, if either Hillary or Obama did what Trump is doing it would be impeachment for her and strange fruit for him.
The Israelis will be sooooo pleased at blabbermouth. It should indeed be an interesting meeting with them.
Treason and compliance....so now what do we do? Back in Nixon's day there were still Republicans with integrity who said ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
AND Trump's staff feeds him fake news to get him riled up. Just finished a book on WWII, Hitler's generals would do the same thing to him. We all know how that turned out. The short shortsightedness of his supporters is amazing.

But wait, there's more if you can believe it. Apparently Comey wrote memos of his meetings with Trump. Get this, Trump asked Comey to SHUT DOWN THE INVESTIGATION. After Comey wrote that memo he supposedly went to senior officials at the FBI and told them what transpired. Comey HAS to come forward and if not then he needs to be subpoenaed. This just can't go on any longer. That is obstruction of justice plain and simple - PERIOD. An impeachable offence. Think Republican's will finally grow a backbone now? Probably not unfortunately.

Dan Rather..........
I end each of my days with a silent prayer for my country. It has been a ritual for some time, but as of late I feel an anxiety gripping my heart and a sadness permeating my soul that seems unlike anything I have felt before.
I hope against hope as I slip off to sleep that our rapid descent into governmental chaos has hit a nadir - only to awaken to a new set of incoherent tweets or explosive headlines from top-notch reporters. And with that, we are falling once again. As I fall, we fall, even further, I pray again that our Constitutional government, the great gift of our Founding Fathers, will provide a safety net to catch us before everything we hold dear is no more. I believe that is the case, but the slowly rising level of uncertainty is not to be ignored.
I see recklessness where we need leadership... and I am deeply saddened.
I see politicians putting power and politics over principle... and I am incredulous.
I see lies treated as truths... and I am disgusted.
I see justice denied and likely obstructed.... and I am fearful.
I see norms flaunted... and I am angry.
I see global challenges going unaddressed... and I am worried.
I see the press under attack... and I am furious.
I see this, and more, so much more... and I am exhausted.
I find myself returning in my mind to dark days from the past, trying to remember how we as a nation felt, when Pearl Harbor was attacked, when Kennedy was shot, when Watergate took down a President, when terrorists rained terror from the skies. We somehow overcame. And I do believe that we shall overcome, someday. Perhaps, hopefully, someday soon.
But in the end, prayer will not be enough. Action, sustained action, will be required.
