2. Yes. Base incompetence. Failing to carry out basic duties to protect the USA. Impeachable.

Such lax security may be on purpose, meaning tRump's high crimes rise to the level of treason and ESPIONAGE.

other than the most basic.

So long as there isn't anything classified being discussed or presented, I see no reason that as escorted visitor wouldn't be allowed.

I can tell you that years ago I was an escorted visitor to the NSA...

I think he held these sorts of dismissal meetings in the situation room was so that it would remain quiet... there are press all over the west wing and even in his office if she started screaming or crying, that might be reported by the press.

I am surprised that she wasn't checked for a cell phone or other recording device.

she was wise to tape Kelly. These liars have to be caught on tape, and they still deny shit. Obviously, he took her into this room to fire her, but it sure sounded like a threat to me. That's what they do, bully, threaten, litigate until opposition folds. Kelly is as big an asshole as Dump, and Ms. O liked all of them just fine, until she didn't. Zero sympathy.
