Did Trump pass sensitive information recorded in the Oval Office..,

to Lavrov and Kislyak during their Thursday meeting. Information on a flash drive or something similar that could be concealed inside a photigraper's equipment?

We know his ego is big enough that he thinks he could get away with it. We know he is ignorant enough to try. The question is, would he do such a thing if the Russians had enough kompromat to put him in prison for the rest of his life?

If recordings do exist, I suspect they would be far more damaging to Trump Arkansas Granny May 2017 #1

The Russians will want more intelligence information than dirt on Trump: military secrets, etc. Any spy information that may have been discussed in the Oval Office.

Does anyone here know if the Oval Office is considered a secure room for discussing classified information?

regarding anything that has to do with "intelligence" - his own or otherwise.

Nunes seemed to think that wandering around the WH grounds un-escorted to find a secure location was fine and dandy to look at classified info, so with this admin, it doesn't really matter anymore.... they are that flagrant.

thought. And what makes it worse is that it's not inconceivable. Dear, sweet Jesus - the feeling of betrayal that gives me is like a horse-kick to the gut. Thinking back on those grinning photos..........

off his back for awhile, and the Russians grinning over a sense of accomplishing one of their goals.
