    It's called spin AKA polishing........distraction and lack of context are part of the technique. Trump can now be called the Leaker in Chief.

    A high level meeting that discussed "much ado about nothing"?

    Meanwhile, the NSA and CIA were immediately called for damage control does not fit your scenario nor does Trump's tweets

I mean you said he wouldn't even get inaugurated, then everyday since then you wacko libs have been running hot thinking you've got it. So is this it do you plan on impeachment hearings soon? I mean everyone in the room says your wrong but surely somebody outside the room knows more right.

    I see nothing there to indicate ISIS wants to bomb Russian airlines.....snip~


    First on CNN: New terrorist laptop bombs may evade airport security, intel sources say.....

    US intelligence and law enforcement agencies believe that ISIS and other terrorist organizations have developed innovative ways to plant explosives in electronic devices that FBI testing shows can evade some commonly used airport security screening methods, CNN has learned.

    Heightening the concern is US intelligence suggesting that terrorists have obtained sophisticated airport security equipment to test how to effectively conceal explosives in laptops and other electronic devices......snip~

    http://www.cnn.com/2017/03/31/politics/terrorist-laptop-bombs-may-evade-security/


    Note the video and what Lt Gen Townsend is saying. Especially that part about commercial airlines.

    NBC's source validates what McMasters and Dina Powell have to say. Oh and why wouldn't they call the CIA and NSA after whatever Lavrov and the Russian Ambassador had to say, and were saying?

    Moreover, who says the call was damage control Other than Greg Miller of WAPO?

    The WPO article never said he revealed the source and methods. They said that he revealed enough intel about the operation and the city the op was in and that info was enough for the Russians to reverse engineer that classified info and identify the source. Basically Trump put the source at risk.

    Your Trump derangement Syndrome is leading to other side effects. I would offer you some vino, but it might keep you in that state of delusion.

    Wow. Actually, he didn't. And, just for the record, do you understand what "leaking" actually means? Like who are the internal sources that "leaked" this to the press? Those would, by definition be "leakers". A President having a diplomatic conversation is called foreign policy execution. I know, you won't get this at all, and will continue to view this through the lens of a 6 yo....

    Having difficultly keeping it on the topic are you, understandable that you need to make this about me......but that's a little weak. Trump leaked top secret intel to the Russians without the permission of the foreign intel provider. A national security leak that could compromise the source, the like or death of the operative that is a double agent.

    Says who? "unnamed sources"? Ok, so if we're using the standard of you assert, you provide the evidence, show us the call record of said "damage control calls". We'll wait.

    They cant seem to figure out that all Trump said was he shared information with the Russians. Which was his Right to do.



    'As President I wanted to share with Russia (at an openly scheduled W.H. meeting) which I have the absolute right to do, facts pertaining to terrorism and airline flight safety. Humanitarian reasons, plus I want Russia to greatly step up their fight against ISIS & terrorism,' Trump said in two tweets.

    The President did not break the law, only WAPO’s sources broke the law.

    The Washington Post says, “The Post is withholding most plot details, including the name of the city, at the urging of officials who warned that revealing them would jeopardize important intelligence capabilities.”

    That means that their source(s) revealed the “plot details” (apparently all) to the press, therefore, the only crime committed here was the leaking of the info to the press by someone not authorized to do so.

    Do you support hanging by the neck until dead the WAPO sources who leaked the classified info to the press?

    ISIS claimed responsibility for the bomb that took down the Russian airliner ~ 1.5 years ago (Oct 2015) killing 224.
