Trump caught with "some of the most sensitive secrets we hold".

[Kingofalldems]

Arrest him.

1. Yes! SOON n/t

[BigmanPigman]

2. How much of the info did he already sell or trade?

[Rhiannon12866]

12. +100

So much for "secrets."

[NullTuples]

15. My guess is they have to assume everything is compromised & act accordingly?

[calimary]

22. Yeah. Probably so.

[Mr. Ected]

3. The longer we wait the more ominous it becomes

The proof is before our eyes. The target has confessed. Each moment he lives as a free man is a moment that all our lives are in peril.

[PlutosHeart]

5. Perhaps he is using it as leverage.

Seems like something he would do.

[Mr. Ected]

7. There's no doubt he's using it as leverage

The part of this we can't see and may never see. He's truly a madman. He's deranged, thus his freakish appeal. He'd sell all of us out, the whole world, just to save his ass.

Charles Manson had a cult too.

[calimary]

23. Welcome to DU, PlutosHeart!

I'd say whatever you assume is the worst that he could have done - he probably DID. Already.

[no_hypocrisy]

4. And he wants them back.

I'm serious.

6. I'm sure they're not secrets anymore.

I wonder how much Trump made for selling out our intelligence assets? 🤔

[Hugin]

8. You beat me to it...

I'll say it anyway, "Not ANYMORE!" Even if in actuality those secrets weren't exposed, any responsible IC would act as if they were. It's the only prudent path.

Gee, nobody is talking about the billions and possibly trillions of $$$ it's going to cost to clear and re-establish these systems.

[SeattleVet]

20. No telling yet what human or technological sources have been exposed.

The very possibility that any of this has been revealed to anyone will have all of the various agencies scrambling to find out what may have been disclosed. In some instances simply exposing the existence of information also exposes the source of the information, if it has been deeply embedded.

For example, if it becomes known that the content of a conversation that took place in the back of a limo is known to one of the Three Letter Agencies, they now know that there may be a clandestine listening device planted in that vehicle. Likewise, there are bits of information that could have only come from specific individuals...a photo taken with a button or pen camera in an otherwise 'secure' meeting can let the adversary figure out who took it from the position and angle of the photo - "Oh, yeah - George was sitting at that end of the table."

It's going to take a lot of black-budget money to figure out, and mitigate, the potential damage from TFG's infantile stunt.

Reality Winner spent her time in jail for mishandling ONE document. Jonathan Pollard spent a LOT of time in jail for giving secrets to one of our allies. tRumplethinskin needs to have consequences, even if it is only having to pay the government the full amount it costs to mitigate the damage he created, which would hopefully cost him enough to put him into a cardboard box on the sidewalk outside of Merde-a-Loco.

[Hugin]

28. Not to mention the loss of trust from US allies...

Which may never be regained now that they have seen the country is liable to completely tip over the apple cart every two to four years.

In my personal opinion the response to this breach is far beyond the scale to be handled by the DOJ and courts. I seem to be alone in this, however.

[niyad]

29. Still secrets to us. Just not to our enemies.

[SergeStorms]

40. Exactly.

We'll never know how much damage was done to our intelligence operations by the Big Orange Pig.

Our allies (if we still have allies who trust us) must be going crazy over this.

Trump will always be a festering boil on the ass of the United States until - and probably after - the day he dies. The damage he's done is incalculable. But 35% of the people in this country worship him like a god.

[OAITW r.2.0]

9. Think if you were Donald Trump at this moment in time.

You bullshitted your way into the Presidency, partially by claiming Hillary Clinton had serious secrets on her personal server. Which was a mis classification issue..

And now the Government has real evidence of your espionage. Selling secrets that are worth real money to our adversaries.

No one believes the lies anymore. No more bluster about hoaxes, Don.

It's all true. he sold us out. That's my definition of Treason. And this DOJ will bring indictments and he will live in infamy....the worst President ever.

[regnaD kciN]

10. Unfortunately, you're wrong on one point...

…at least 40% of the country still believes the lies.

[OAITW r.2.0]

11. The 40% are people that can't figure out how to make change unless the cash register tells them

answer.

Not important if we all vote for a united Democratic future

[NoMoreRepugs]

13. A close relative of mine is a multi-bank CEO, COB. Stanford,

MBA, CPA - a solid Trumper, hell, he thinks Newt Gingrich would have been a great President. Some BatShitCrazedLoons can read and pass a test!

We haven’t talked in years.

[OAITW r.2.0]

16. OK, there are always exception to the rule. nt

[Demsrule86]

14. It is not that high.

[OAITW r.2.0]

18. Trump voters, 62% of the folks admitting to voting Republican in 2024.

which will be 25% of the voting population.

[catbyte]

17. Well, on the lighter side, at least now we now know that aliens most likely never crashed

at Area 51 because Benedict Donald would've blabbed it all over the Internet and to every stooge at his golf club. Unless they didn't tell him, of course.

[The Jungle 1]

19. This is what I want to read.

Trump was processed into federal lockup today. He was given a cavity search and got his paper jump suit.
I soooooooooo want to read that. All the women he raped soooooooo want to read that.

[calimary]

21. Take a number.

[The Jungle 1]

41. I have one.

I am number 1. Just ask my wife.
I think she has an arthritic index finger.

[bahboo]

24. burn that fucking circus peanut to the fucking ground.....

[dflprincess]

25. Why is he still running loose?

[moondust]

26. Rep. Swalwell

is on House Intelligence Committee. On The Last Word he suggested that if TFG would use millions of dollars in aid to Ukraine as leverage to get something out of Zelensky, wouldn't he also use highly classified information as leverage to get something else he wanted?

Of course he would.

[elias7]

27. I thought, given his past indiscretions, sensitive ntelligence was withheld from him

[dchill]

33. Or so the Russians would have us believe.

[AZLD4Candidate]

30. And he is not in handcuffs why? And why does it take so long to put white collar criminals in jail?

Because LEOs only care about imprisoning the poor, the powerless, and the minority

As the chinese saying goes: Preference to the strong, bully the weak.

[dchill]

31. He should be jailed and awaiting trial. You would be.

I would be.

[onecaliberal]

32. Not anymore. Nothing he had is a secret. Anyone who thinks he didn't sell and copy is foolish.

[Kablooie]

34. They assume Trump doesn't have copies.

But is that a wise assumption?
They apparently assume he hasn’t compromised the secrets too.

I hope they aren’t actually assuming any of this and are working behind the scenes secretly to learn much more than they can release to the public.

[Blue Owl]

35. Fire up the white Bronco

[kimbutgar]

36. Take him down, take him down right now!

Benedict Donald.

[Horse with no Name]

39. You spelled it wrong

Been a Dick not Benedict

[IBEWVET]

37. He may be indicted but

will never be convicted because there will always be a cult member on any jury and will never say guilty.

[EnergizedLib]

38. Now

Slap the cuffs on him now.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]
