They're saying the term was used specifically to cast doubt and cover the person's identity.
And I would say what Omorosa did was worse.
Omarosa is a rat fuck, but we knew that before she turned coat. Her even being put in the position of opportunity Trump gave her tells you all you need to know about his judgement.
If someone in his administration genuinely and fairly believes Trump is so unstable, not just his Twitter behavior and general boorish behavior, but unstable to the point he could randomly order nuke strikes on Berlin, Moscow, Beijing or Omaha, then they have an obligation to publicly come forward. Not hide behind an OpEd while allowing this alleged mentally unstable President to ride out the next 26 months.
The only way obstructing the President and sabotaging his office is remotely justified, is if Trump is about to do something catastrophic. Not repeal DACA or put tariffs on the EU. But no shit, Trump just ordered an air raid on Tehran because he heard the voice of god. Something that objectively and universally is considered absurd. And only until the cabinet is notified and the 25th amendment is immediately debated.
Distracting the President so he chases butterflies so “the establishment” can serve as a bureaucracy to force through change is criminal. A government agent actively working against the constitution is treason. We’re ruled by a constitution, not technocrats.
Whistleblower status only applies when you publicly make your accusations known. Not exploit the alleged ineptitude to put through political agenda.
The letter itself is bullshit. The accusations are important and need to be investigated and charged. And I expect the culprit to be charged and prosecuted. The full power of the feds will be set forth to identify the culprit. This is more significant than any of the claims of Russian interference. Someone on allegedly a group of federal employees are claiming to be actively working to usurp the powers of the presidency. That’s a constitutional crisis. Even Warren realizes how dangerous this is.

You’re always so critical of everyone who criticizes Trump but i rarely if ever hear you criticize Trump himself.
You’re also extremely quick to throw that word treason around but dismissed the Russia/Trump treasonous collusion accusations almost immediately.
You’re too busy playing constitutional scholar to care about someone as impulsive as Trump taking the bait into something of serious consequence.

I've said from day one if Trump knowingly worked with Putin - you know, actual collusion, he should be tried for treason. I'd even volunteer to be on his firing squad. Nearly 2 years after the election and 16 months since Mueller was appointed, and not a single American has been indicted for anything related to the election or campaign related to Russia. Just because I don't spend half my posts fantasizing about the moment the smoking gun is finally revealed and the hysterics of the far left realized, doesn't make me any less patriotic than you (hahahahahahahahahahahaha).
If someone in the White House, as the letter suggests, is actively working to sabotage the President of the United States, how can you not call that Treason? Put away your partisan schtick for one moment. If this letter came out from someone working for Obama, would you even hesitate to call for their head?
I've said it a million times that I think Trump is a fucking idiot. I didn't vote for him. But he is the legitimately elected President of our country, and all things considered, the country is objectively better today than it was before he took office. Your or anyone else's blind hatred of him doesn't change that.
So you’ve criticized Trump 3 times?
I don’t care who you voted for...for some reason you didn’t have the stones to vote for the candidate you had so many good things to say about leading up trump the election.
First of all...i find this Op Ed to be National enquirer level bull crap. But the way i interpreted it, it seems like they’re trying to manage his impulses.
Let me ask you something then...
1) was it treasonous when a man undermined a sitting president by Questioning his citizenship and his religious devotion to Muslims? All the while not providing any proof?
2) when trump calls everything he doesn’t like to hear fake news and rails against free press...is that also not an attack on the bill of rights? Is that also not treason?
No, those were just some evenly spaced out comments of when I commented on Treason and Trump, since that's what you attacked me on.
This OpEd has just a smidge more credibility than the National Enquirer. The NY Times is arguably the greatest newspaper in the world, whereas the Enquirer....isn't.
And to answer your questions, no and no. Otherwise you'd be guilty of treason for your comments.

I’m thinking it’s a senior aide in the White House. Cabinet secretaries wouldn’t be left alone in the Oval Office or do things like remove letters from his desk. It could be Kelly, but it’d have to be someone with routine access to the president and his office.

Anyone notice Louis Farakhan front and center at Aretha's funeral? The leader of the largest racist organization in the US according to the SPLC, with numerous black leaders, President Clinton, and celebrities present. This is why I laugh out loud when people bitch about Trump being a racist.

I disagree they went far right. Trump is hardly a “conservative”. Trump was anti-immigration, which the majority of the country is too. The majority of Americans don’t believe illegal immigrants should be able to enter the country as they please. That’s not a “far right” view. But the election is the Democrats for the taking. You run someone as left as Sanders, you’re going to excite the same people who voted for Trump and alienate everyone in the middle. Mark my words, if the Democrats go towards Warren or Sanders ideologically, Trump will be re-elected.
Can any woman really win? If it were ever going to happen, it should have in 2016.
As far as immigration goes, I think a considerable number of the Trump supporters dislike even legal immigration.
As far as Trump being a conservative, he basically embodied the movement and became an amoeba. Trump has no personal political agenda because he just does whatever his base likes. I don't see him as someone who stands for anything but what keeps him on top.
And of course, anything that's good for Trump enterprises.
Of course a woman can win. You just need a woman who has an actual resume and connects with voters. Their platform needs to be more than "I'm a woman, let's break this "ceiling" ". Hillary would have won if she hadn't avoided any kind of interview for a year and didn't come across as an entitled bitch. And actually giving a fuck about her husband's base by campaigning. Her crowds were a joke because no one liked her even if they agreed with her.

If they just nominated a socialist over a moderate woman.... Buckle up.
Everyone in the country should pay attention to this race. This is Florida. THE swing state. A surrogate for Trump versus a surrogate for Sanders. This will tell us how 2020 will go. Democrats go to the far left at their own peril.

#1780 Re: The Garden » Lost all my files GN'R & LIFE » 402 weeks ago
Hello,
I don't know if anyone has ever gone through this. It's a bad situation, which could have been avoided more carefully. I do not know if anyone cares, but I wanted to speak.
I lost all the files of my life, family, college. From Guns, I've lost videos, thousands of images, texts, among other things, and especially the old demos, as well as the Chinese leaks. Files of all phases of the band.
Hundreds of files lost due to a memory device problem. I used to store everything in two places, but I ended up removing it from my computer because it was old and slow and I thought it would be no problem, but I was wrong. I've already taken the action to try to recover the data, but it was not possible.So that's it, I'm poor at Guns N' Roses stuff. How will I survive this excasso market? The demos were a way to keep us alive, hoping for a better musical economy of this band. And now I'm bankrupt. The Axl state needs to intervene fast. ):
Before losing the files, I was in a process of organization, once finished, intended to facilitate access to them for those who like this band. It's not like I have rare things, but it was cool, and anyone who came in last could do well and enjoy it.
I have not been on the forum for a long time and so far I have not been very helpful, I just made some comments and I sent some links, but if anyone can help me recover the band's files, at least in part, I be very thankful. And this time I'll leave it in a cloud.
*Sorry for this English of Google Translator.
Damn, google’s gotten pretty good. Sorry to hear about your luck.
Are the GN’R file shares still a thing? I remember them being up over a decade ago, but that might be an option if they still exist.
