The report that President Trump did not follow specific warnings from his national security advisers when he congratulated Russian president Vladimir Putin was breathtaking and one of the most startling leaks of this whole administration. It has left President Trump and his senior staff furious and rattled, Jonathan Swan reports.
The speed and sensitivity of the leak prompted immediate finger-pointing within the administration, as aides reeled from a leak that could only have come from a small group of people, each of whom is trusted with sensitive national secrets. Possible motives include concern about how Trump is handling Putin, frustration by the officials about Trump ignoring their advice, or internal power games.

50 years of voting and I've never seen an electorate so docile and accepting in my life.
We, as a country, are screwn.

...Now, maybe the electorate is kinda slow...but that might be a sign it isn't that docile.. Maybe the electorate needs a lot of time to figure out that 2 plus 2 is 4...But...maybe once it figures it out..it knows which side tells the truth, and which side is a fuc***g liar.

(9,287 posts)That is Mueller knows a lot more than anyone in the media knows and that he has as absolute dream team of prosecutors. I would not want to face them,no way no how.
I also think the UK justice system is working the Cambridge part of the case. If I were the Mercer family, I would be very worried.
Just my humble opinion!
