When the result has been that the sidewalk is being rolled up on Daesh?

This is what winning looks like, and it us happening under Trump, it never did under Obama.

Dan, he's having Thanksgiving dinner with Putin at Mar-a-Lago. Seriously. A $400 million dollar yacht owned by Putin's best friend is docked at Mar-a-Lago as of yesterday, with Putin's BFF on there. $5 says that Putin's on there with him.

I thought this was old news, and if I remember correct it came out after israel had no real issue with trump sharing the intel, and the intel shared was over isis which was also an enemy of russia and that russia was also fighting.

Add to that classified information can be declassified by the commander in chief, one of the few who have the authority to do so, so it seems people like you who hate trump can't even come up with new reasons to foam at the mouth and instead dig up old news hoping people forgot it was debunked.
 
Not treason.

The president has complete authority to declassify whatever he pleases, to whomever he pleases, whether it be wise to do so or not. Trump has the authority to these things without any oversight because that's what it means to be commander in chief.

It might be incredibly stupid, but Trump does have the legal authority to do these things.

But don’t get all collusion-delusional. Abramovich’s spokesman said the billionaire isn’t aboard — the ship’s just in town for scheduled maintenance. It's been there since the 18th. Can I have the $5 spot?
 
Slow news day to bash President Trump so lets rehash some old new from May 2017.
There is a super strong smell of desperation here.

From the story:

As president, Trump has broad authority to declassify government secrets, making it unlikely that his disclosures broke the law.

White House officials involved in the meeting said Trump discussed only shared concerns about terrorism.

“The president and the foreign minister reviewed common threats from terrorist organizations to include threats to aviation,” said H.R. McMaster, the national security adviser, who participated in the meeting. “At no time were any intelligence sources or methods discussed, and no military operations were disclosed that were not already known publicly.”

They're grasping at straws around this point.

I honesty didn't know what the article was going to be about when I noticed it pop up in my feed.

Now I feel like I am treading same waters of stupidity that I did all those months ago.

Treason? The inexperience of a someone lacking any previous exposure to foreign policy or international intelligence. But that is, what you get for installing a neophyte as President. Nothing in it to surprise anyone. And to think, he did it with only 25 percent of voters balloting for him. If you don’t like this, shame is on you for not doing more to turn out the vote among the 50 percent that backed him by not voting.

I don’t know. Russia has grabbed a satellite in the Eastern Mediterranean and is shaping it in a way very unpleasant for the US.
 
The people who voted for him are too stupid to understand this.

Who is the "stupid" one as you say?

“The president and the foreign minister reviewed common threats from terrorist organizations to include threats to aviation,” said H.R. McMaster, the national security adviser, who participated in the meeting. “At no time were any intelligence sources or methods discussed, and no military operations were disclosed that were not already known publicly.”

Still trying to find other culprits to cover up one's own negligence? Folks that so abhorred Trump as they say didn't do, what it took to the extent of being licked by a measly 25 percent turnout for Trump.

It is always good to for those with potentially harmful mental issues to let us all know ahead of time. It seems to be the silent ones that come at you extra hard.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Las Vegas shooting survivors to heal together at potluck dinner

November 22, 2017 - 10:45 pm
Survivors of the Oct. 1 mass shooting are expected to share experiences and heal at a potluck dinner Saturday night in Henderson.

“We don’t want to let the hatred of that night win,” event organizer Stacie Armentraut said.

"More than 100 people from what Armentraut called “our Route 91 family” are set to attend a dinner celebrating each one another and first responders. She said several survivors have held get-togethers before, but the dinner was set to be the largest-scale survivor event she had attended."

Do you even know what thread you are posting in? Nope.......

From Haaretz, back in January of this year

U.S. Intelligence Officials Reportedly Warn Israeli Counterparts Against Sharing Info With Trump Administration

Israeli intelligence officials are concerned that the exposure of classified information to their American counterparts in the Trump administration could lead to their being leaked to Russia and onward to Iran, investigative journalist Ronen Bergman reported in Israeli daily Yediot Ahronot on Thursday.

Then from May
Russians Are Having a Field Day With Trump's Intel Leak Bombshell

Like the firing of FBI's Comey or the flaunting of Russian hacking, Trump’s shock announcement that he gave the Russians classified information is yet another Russian 'win' in the Cold War reprise that's unfolding

MOSCOW – After a day of denials by those around him, Donald Trump has admitted that he did indeed share classified intelligence about Islamic State with Russia. But the Kremlin is calling this “nonsense.”
“This is not even an issue for us. It’s just more of the latest nonsense,” said Dmitry Peskov, spokesman to President Vladimir Putin. “We want nothing to do with this nonsense.”

On his Twitter account on Tuesday, Trump said he had disclosed the information because he wanted Russia “to greatly step up their fight against ISIS and terrorism.” While not illegal, disclosure of such information – which the president received confidentially from a Middle Eastern ally – goes against intelligence etiquette, and could put the source at risk.

Those highlighted words are the crux of the matter. Once the Russians determine the source of the intel, they could then put pressure on that source using any manner of threat or inducement to have the source alter future reports to the US.
