Trump Asked Australian PM To Help Barr, Guiliani Subpoenaed For Ukraine Docs | MTP Daily | MSNBC
And while he tried to hide the calls on a private server. How ironic.
@Desecration I am not going to sit here and pass a judgement on what is misclassified or not. A tacit agreement about conversation behind closed doors is violated and erodes confidence with other leaders. However, like I said Congress should request the information. If WH dosen’t cooperate then I would lean towards suspicion and possible misconduct camp.
@Parag Rane It’s not my opinion or passing judgment (nor yours) on the topic. The intelligence community has a set of guidelines to establish what type of security level is appropiate for data/operations. They’ve already admitted that Trump’s administration violated those protocols. This incident wasn’t the first and only time his administration done this.
This is the fault of mainstream focusing too much time on the sensationalism and not enough informing the audience of the most relevant points for why he should be impeached. We’re way past the point of whether the Dems are overreaching on a “polite conversation” between two leaders.That part is not for you to decide because it’s already been decided for you. There’s only two obstacles for Trump being thrown out 1) Pelosi’s feckless leadership 2)The GOP still providing cover for him in the Senate. They committed crimes. We’re way passed the point of saying whether it’s just obstruction.
carol 1 you’re a quick one aren’t you
John Swofford important to distinguish: this is not a leak. The whistleblower went through the proper channels of the justice department. A leak is more like gossip sent to a columnist
Republicans tired of having dems do all the “witch hunting” so they have Barr & Guiliani running around on their own witch hunt. Waste of time & our $$.
no the democrats obsession to impeach Trump is a waste of $ cause the Senate will not vote for it
Our money? Are we paying Rudy?
Honestly I don’t think you can call it a witchunt when the Tweeter Witch in question openly confirms it.
Trump now wants to use foreign intelligence services to discredit his own FBI and CIA, dispicable. It is true that no matter how low you think Trump can sink, he just keeps sinking lower. Impeachment is too lenient for this guy.
Mark Bodder Wishful thinking on your part. More people support an impeachment investigation, than oppose it. Trump’s support has fallen as he is only interested in his delusional base. Biden can only be impeached if in office, so you’ll have to elect him president, just to try to impeach.
innovator008 so, you support the traitor in the White House? You utter fool!
‘TDS’…
‘Trump’s Damnable Schemes’.
Too bad *everyone’s* ‘onto him’ now.
*Every* state, *every* bank, *every* insurance company and *every* country that #45’s *lied to* in his filings *ARE* ‘comparing notes’…and *finding* ‘faults’.
And *soon* #45’s life becomes…a *neverending nightmare* of litigations and losses. 💸📑👋
You want to know about foreign melding in our 2016 election right? The evidence is out there so why didn’t Mueller find it?
HOPEFULLY HE’LL DROWN SOON!!!!!!
If Putin doesn’t want his calls transcripts public, then they really need to be public. That and the MBS calls.
@don’tbelieve whatyouaretold exactly! Did u see the interview with his , or the White House stenographer? Very interesting. She said this is first President since Reagan when they started recording everything like that , that doesn’t want them around. She said Obama use to thank them and treat them well. Trump won’t even let them in some rooms, or interviews. She wasn’t in with the Putin talks either. None of them.
@N. Maria No I missed those. I try to listen to media that covers the right and the left but mostly those with the least bias possible. When did those occur?
@don’tbelieve whatyouaretold I listened to it yesterday. Let me go back n see what the name of video. It’s a very interesting interview with the people that actually sit in with the president on basically anything he is doing and record it.
@don’tbelieve whatyouaretold not sure how to do links , but if you search White House Stenographer gives interview. Her name is Becky Dorey-Stein I believe. The interview is from a year ago… I didn’t realize it but it has so much to do with what’s going on now.. imo
@john Naggle “Putin is smart.”
Not really, he’s just viscious.
It is impressive how thorough this abuse of power is…….and how thorough the attempt to cover it up……who said this administration couldn’t accomplish anything? Well….
cindy clarke George plimpton is correct. Or dont you believe US Intelligence
@Kathryn Foster-martin Where does it say that ,this was all done by trump alone, because of his greed to stay in power, he was the one that reached out to foreign countries for help again and put our national security at risk ,So when he opens himself to be blackmailed ,1 favour for another favour , wonder what Russia is getting ,is that why there is no American interpretation in the room,and notes destroyed ,I will not stand still while he shows disrespect for the rule of law or our constitution
What are they covering up?
cindy clarke I actually think we are in agreement. Was your original comment re: Russia snark? Of course Russia was involved, if not why Putin’s directive to trump that he needs Russia’s permission to release their phone conversations?
Russia is behind the brexit move. This is nothing new, the kgb (fsb) has been spreading propaganda the world over for decades. Cyber ops. There are plenty of docs to watch, try Infektion for starters; very informative.
As for what Putin has on trump, I think Putin co-signed the Deutsche bank loan. O’Donnell stated it publicly then retracted, which is, I believe, due to the investigation into deutsche’s worldwide money laundering and that O’Donnell wasn’t authorized to divulge it as it is part of the investigation.
Russia is involved worldwide, not just the US. The mueller report was very clear on russias involvement in US elections. And it’s now a known fact that McConnell, graham, the nra and many other trump supporters have accepted Russian money. Trump is no doubt likely indebted to UAE and China as well, though Russia seats to have the most kompromat on all of them.
I bet most republicans miss the good old days when they spent their time making up lies about Obama instead of defending the truth about trump.
Mark Bodder also Russians tried to intervene in Obama’s watch is very different than a sitting president inviting them to do so, and openly saying he would do so again without going to the FBI. The Russians can try all the want, Obama never colluded with foreign entities to intentionally hinder American democracy. Trump did.
Wojak Grey lol yeah your new York slum lord president is a real man of the people. If you think he isn’t “elite” and represents you your a fool. Look where his tax cuts went. Look who’s being hurt by his tariffs against China, not large corporations but poor Americans and farmers. You deserve this president if your too lazy to educate yourself and would prefer to just believe whatever nonsense he tweets.
@Dear Leader
😱 That monster! How he was not impeached for that is beyond me.
Now they have to back a duplicitous and deranged dotard who’s “Making America GASH Again”. Impeach, Indict, HANG!!!
@Jay W Nope. Zero crimes were committed.
You are deep in denial.
This man is a lunatic and not fit for office. Wasting taxpayers money on conspiracy theories and not running this country.
Putin runs Trump’s country.
@Sam Smythe – ‘Member when their “Q-approved arrests!!1!” were supposed to 💯 happen…waaaay back in 2017? 😴
Then 2018? 🙄
Then ‘January, 2019’… 😐
Then ‘February’…
Then ‘March’…
Then ‘April’…
Then ‘May’…
Then ‘June’…
Then ‘July’…
Then ‘August, with Comey’…’for sure!’👍
We just wish the ‘Queballs’ would’ve held their breath, waiting… 🤢
The truth will set you free – more to come and I can’t wait.
@claire bigelow as you as you stop popping OPIODS!!
Live tweeting is NOT governing! Duplicitous and deranged Dotard. Impeach, Indict, HANG! -Djo Life
I love it that “Cover-Up” artist William Barr has some liability & will need to hire real lawyers/liars to try to defend his criminally corrupt & treasonous traitorous behaviour!
He can’t hire a lawyer to testify in Congress THOUGH.
@Helen Patterson : The last 2 weeks since the WhistleBlower & Impeachment Proceedings have givin millions of us a new found hope & concerted desire to put an end to this tRumpian dysfunctionally dystopian nightmare where bad is good & good is bad!
“When your lawyer needs a lawyer…..you need a lawyer.”
@CynAnne1 Only if you want some incredibly thin-skinned and fragile luggage.
This just the stuff we as the general public have learned, how much other stuff is there that both the House and Senate intelligence committees has beyond the public reports? I imagine this is way worse than what is being reported.
@Milk Diamond Let Lindsay have his 3 minutes of fame!
kalbs89… Yeah, like the calls between 45 n putin that putin doesn’t want released at all
It is and I hope Rudy testifies. He can bring all the documents into bribery and voting interference and it won’t be falling on Trump.
We would 💩 our pants if we knew how intensely dirty the Trump administration is along with his crime family. The civil war comment was the last straw, he should have been arrested for treason.
Sounds like there are no interventions at all to keep traitor trump from trying to pull one over on the American people…his enablers are helping him cheat….
@Violeta Durovic that is the definition of a quid pro quo
@Violeta Durovic and it came out of the vice president’s mouth himself in front of a camera what a fool….
@Violeta Durovic this is already backfired on the Socialist Party of America. It’s been debunked. And Pelosi prude how cucked she is
Bodder’s ‘EZ Russian 2 English’ app just malfunctioned, apparently… 😂
@CynAnne1 the joke is on you guys once again.
“That’s not collusion… this is collusion.”
@Jack Boot who said that? My guess ..NOT TRUMP!!
What crime were they colluding on Einstein?
This just gets worse and worse
Yes it does. Wait until all the information on foreign meddling comes out. I wonder why Mueller didn’t find it or Fake News?
Look at the paid Traitors for Trump and Patriots for Putin in the comments.
@Cornell Waters The truth will set you free. What are you worried about? Don’t you want to know if there was foreign interference in our 2016 election?
Saltponds239 – yes foreign interference in election is wrong, whoever is doing it. Trumpists seem to think they can solicit foreign intelligence services to act against the US, because the Democrats did bad things too.
Using the justice department to target your political opponents is one step away from the secret police keeping a single party government in office for ever.
“Trump 2020: Republicans can always do worse.”
First step for Guiliani when the dust settles:
Disbar him.
@Daily reminder: lol I’ve always felt Guiliani was placed by Trump as a failsafe, and the puppetmasters have tired of the Orange Virus, he has served his purpose. I just can’t believe Guiliana is that Dumb. He is a setup…he must be. *Shakes Head*
@Because I Am – It’ll be *the first time* in American legal history an entire group of *indicted traitors* claim “Mass-Effect Alzheimer’s Disease” as their ‘defense’… 👋🤪👎
Just throw a lock on the coffin he sleeps in.
…and disgiuliani Barr.
@That1negro Outta1000 Are you crazy. We are all informed concerning the politics regarding Ukraine back then. All of the European union, world monetary fund, the entire world, wanted the prosecutor dropped precisely because he was corrupt, and refused to investigate the company Biden Jr. worked with! AND that company was investigated, and cleared of any wrong doing! So don’t try your propaganda and lies with me. Trump thinks he can run things like the criminal mobster that he’s been his entire filthy life. We expected as much. So buzz off with your stupid patois.
With so many people about to get thrown under the bus, we are gonna need quite a few more bus drivers.
Aaron S ….That is Frump
Proving his genius. Have to hire more bus drivers, more jail employees and
More Trumpanzees. It’s his
plan to cut unemployment.
And it’s gonna be great….
believe me, great I tell you.
Good line Aaron S.
you gonna need a squad of buses too
That would be correct but be careful what you wish for.
tRump: “before the next morning, the One who eats with me, will thrice deny knowing me.” Bye, bye, The Chosen One.
Imagine if Trump had put as much time and effort into helping Americans as he puts into smearing his political rivals, tearing down our country and lining his pockets!
Then we might actually be tired of winning. Instead we are tied of his whining
😂
Trump doesn’t care about Americans.
October 15th gives him WAY too much time to hide or alter the documents they want.
Guiliani was the man who told Trump that Micheal Cohen would flip on him. How much do tou bet he will flip on Trump too>?
When is Bill Barr going to face consequences for his corruption and involvement in WH scandals? Barr has violated his post on many occasions. He cannot be allowed to act like Roy Cohn and get away with it!
hes over in italy i image he thinking ‘its nice here think i’ll stay a while”.
@cornpipe I agree. Nixon’s henchmen went to prison. It was the correct judgment.
What violation is that?
Lisa Talev Unfortunately he will probably slip away like the slippery snake that he is …..
Giuliani will sing a different tune when Trump dismisses him like most all his previous staff!
I can’t wait to see that show!!
Guiliani has one advantage over the others, he’s not being paid, well at least officially by Trump.
“Rudy who? I barely know him. He’s just a coffee boy.”
I guess Michael Cohen is going to have some cellmates
