Wiping her name from the internet would be a good start. Every outrage repeat of some moronic statement she makes (mistakes are scripted on purpose) just gets the word of her Lord Don out in the headlines.

‘Who is the real enemy?’ Hm… I’m pretty sure it’s the traitor who disclosed classified information to enemy and adversary nations, and the people who support him.

Yes, but if you’re on Russia’s side…

I imagine there must be some confusion on the right, given the statement by the pussy ass bitch just a day or so ago. The PAB said the leak was the worst leak ever in the world in the history of leaks.

I seriously don’t know how these people are able to stand up without falling down constantly from the dizziness.

Pro-Russia = Anti-War

Even though the war started when Russia invaded Ukraine without provocation, and only ends when Russia stops.

Also note the white persecution cries.

She really is the worst.

Way to protect that Homeland Security, Marge. Doing a great job. /s

Regime? FFS. Something that’s bad for the United States is by default a problem for the President of the United States. I think she’d cheer on an invasion from Russia or outer space if it owned the libs…

I don’t know. The fact that it’s her saying it means it’s going to be per se insane, but I don’t see why US government secrets are presumptively good things. Granted that Russia also wants to know, and that’s bad, but I want to know that there are special forces from the US, the UK, France etc. in Ukraine. And why is it “traitorous” if South Korea or Egypt or China know what we’re spying on?

The fact that they now know is not the traitorous part, obviously.

I suppose if SK, Egypt, China, Ukraine, and Russia all decided to reveal all of their top secret information then the US could agree to do the same, but until then, I think the US has to have some military and diplomatic secrets.

For the allies that we’re spying on, they know that we’re doing that and we know that they’re spying on us, but when it’s revealed in public that we are, it hurts our diplomatic relations with our allies.

She is quite simply a Russian Asset at this point. Whether or not she is paid, she’s acting against the interests of the country.

Period.

You know, if someone had told me 30 years ago that there would be Republican sitting members of Congress giving aid and comfort to Russia in a confrontation with the US and the West I’d have laughed at them.

I would find it hard to believe she’s being paid anything. Useful idiots generally gladly do it for free.

Graham himself being a long-serving USAF Reserve JAG officer, it’s not unexpected that someone essentially making a not even thinly veiled call to white cismale Christian members of the service to view the command structure as something that merits opposing and bringing down, will rub him the wrong way. Graham may be a craven political opportunist but at least he’s clear in that you want a military that is disciplined.

The charge is the exposing of information, not the right or wrong of the thing exposed nor the demographic traits of the suspect so she’s full of shit as usual. But I suppose MTG is just still butthurt that the military establishment did NOT act to keep You Know Who in power.

That’s very fair – almost too fair for this thread \<grin\>.

It’s not that surprising that Lindsey would recall his loyalties and his **[oath](https://www.usafa.af.mil/News/Biographies/Display/Article/428320/senator-lindsey-graham/)**; it’s more the selective amnesia (Georgia, 1/6, etc) that both glares and blares.

And I still maintain that most politicians lean far more toward evil than stupid, though I’m willing to relax that position where MTG and Boebert are concerned 😉

The latter. Temporarily useful in taking down one adversary, but not someone you could trust farther than I can drop-kick a bowling ball. At best, he gets moved a notch or two further down the list of People Who Need to Be Put Up Against A Convenient Wall.
