Trump told intelligence agencies to lie to the American people

WaPo Reporter Recounts Trump Admin’s Attempt To Silence Security Officials

Trump puts out massive disinformation

[Champp]

1. And the lying Republicans cheer in celebration

Because they love their liar guy, and lying is OK if you are a Republican

[PatSeg]

11. And they did the same thing to a somewhat lesser degree

with George Bush, who was always trying to fit the narrative to his political objectives. Republicans tend to put politics before country, so lying is just seen as a means to an end.

12. Lying is in the top 3 of the fascist playbook.

One of the GQPs favorites.

[Dreampuff]

2. Their party no longer uses the word "Lie"

It's just disinformation or misinformation or alternative facts. Just ask Kellyanne. This reminds me of his own attorneys saying they could never let him testify because he doesn't know the difference between a lie and the truth. That was one time his attorneys were being honest.

3. The depths of Trump's malfeasance is bottomless...

[CentralMass]

4. Lying is their native tongue.

5. Trump did a lot of damage to our national security in 4 years.

Lying to the American people is bad but he also told our intelligence to back off Russia to investigate China and Iran. He has set our country back. How many of his cronies are still in place? I guess if I suggest purging them I will be questioned for not wanting to follow the law.

[joetheman]

6. So my question is How is Trump still allowed to do this?

The intel community has always had ways to stop people from telling the truth but you mean they can't stop people from lying? The embeds must be massive and in control.

7. Justice Department

Is it me, or does it seem dangerously apparent that our Justice Department has more than ample evidence to connect the dots --- yet Merrick Garland is nowhere in view?

We are way past due for cuffs and shackles.

[mopinko]

10. doj doesnt talk about pending cases.

for all we know he is planning a huge sweep of some kind.
i'd like to see them moving. but i have no doubt they are investigating.

[hibbing]

8. It's always worse than you can imagine n/t

[Tadpole Raisin]

9. 12 of his 20 years in service was Bush/TFG. Career service so R's

Can’t call him fake - but they will!

More data points to justify prosecuting TFG and others on activities that would put our country, our national security at grave risk.

DOJ may not want to touch this electrified wire of a dumpster fire and it may very well cause civil unrest but not acting on this would be worse.

Maybe no good choices but there is clearly a right and wrong choice.

[llashram]

13. doesn't this piece

openly confirm that trump was getting his political marching orders from Putin? Graham East et al. included.

[Justice matters.]

14. We Know Orange Terrorist Is Corrupt/Compromised Putin's Puppet Since Five To Six Years.

We saw AMPLE evidence of it...

Senate Intelligence saw AMPLE evidence of it...

Yet, nobody is doing ANYTHING about it...

Imagine what would have been done if Nixon would have been Khrushchev's puppet with 5-to-6 years of in-our-face evidence of it.

Imagine what would have been done if Obama would have been Putin's puppet with 5-to-6 years of in-our-face evidence of it...

Do-nothing-against-white-privilege Congress.

15. exactly to the truth

if I didn't know better I would think TPTB want fascism in this country both in media, corporate interests and that other political party. I just hope the military stays out of this. The next 3 or 4 years, I see it as dangerous..for our citizenry and our still-evolving democracy.

16. TFG was protecting his base of NAZIs and white racists

[traitorsgalore]

17. Repukes have been doing this 100% of the time since WMD propaganda in early 2000s

Repukes did it 90% of the time before that, going all the way back to Nixon.

[Javaman]

18. I just got a chance to watch this. If TFG gets reelected

Not only is that the end of democracy in the US, but his second term will be titled, “TFG’s revenge tour”

You think things were bad before? That was just the warm up act.

We will embrace fascism and will look more like a handmaids tale fascism Germany BUT TFG will be taking his marching orders from Russia. Thus draining our resources, technology and money to be funneled right back into Moscow.

We will become, effectively, a colony of russia
