    When I saw that headline, I didn’t bother. After a while, you have a good read on what’s worth while.

    That’s just the nature of click bait commercials. It’s not an excuse to excuse the action of inexcusable actions. It’s not an equivalent. But unfortunately, that’s what will happen. Victimhood is both a strong self and group protector of own horrible actions.

    trump tries to further drape himself in the American flag... and in the process, promotes the loss of constitutional-protected freedoms...

    Agreed that Trump sucks, but. . . .
    F*** any intelligence officials who keep secrets from the POTUS.

    Why are we openly preparing for "surveillance or attack" on Russia? Note that "attack" does not mean "defense."

    Sounds like they were talking about code traps to monitor russian intrusion. And they don't trust trump to not talk about it.

    Well I sure as hell do not trust "intelligence officials" keeping secrets from the president. Sounds close to treason. Who's running the show, if not the President of the United States? Serious question.

    Think of the President of the United States as a manger of a major company. If employees under the manager is suspicious that their manager is sending trade secrets to other companies and to make this analogy equivalent, there is no avenue to fire said manager, they would also be hesistent to send up any trade secrets such as engineering drawings of newly developed products to said manager.

    I dislike Trump quite a lot, but the President of the United States is the President of the United States.

    Does anyone have a name of the person making the decision to possibly "surveil or attack" Russia? Can we get a name?

    So in an extreme hypothetical situation where a President is a literal Manchurian candidate and the Senate of the US Congress is so hyper partisan that they wouldn't even vote for impeachment even if the President shot someone in the middle of 5th avenue, are you telling me there is no fail safe to mitigate damage such as nonpartisan careerists in our intelligence community?
