Clint Watts: Whistleblowers Are The Nation's Last Line Of Defense | The 11th Hour | MSNBC
American democracy ended in January 2017.
Its getting close, not there yet.
My guess is he’s going to push it as far as he can. What will Chuck and Nancy do?
it got cancer on 9/11/01
It actually ended when the Supreme Court ruled against campaign finance reform. Now money is speech so democracy is auctioned off. Why would republicans fix it when they are the beneficiaries of all of this. Electoral college is the same problem.
The liar fraud and traitor. Always working against the best interest of the United States. Dotardism….. Piece of fecal remnant needs to be jailed yesterday.
Daddytang67 : How many times does Trump get to CHANGE the Law? He’s a KING, and UNTOUCHABLE. America will vote him out from SHEER CURIOSITY, just to find out the TRUTH about ALL THESE CRIMES . . . SMH
That’s why when he got in the market went up trillions of dollars. Obama was keeping us poor and under UN control. Giving our money to NGOs, UN and foreign aid.
It’s american people decision to overthrow the president
I dont want to be killed and am not a save country so its upto the people and the Congress so even they are everywhere
Evil, Failed, Un Christian, Un American Trump has earned no respect and deserves no privacy.
Trump IS a Russian Asset.
but not one bit of proof just your thoughts like aholes ever one has one
@David Goldman No proof? Thirty plus people convicted and sentenced. How do you know what “proof” is available from the whistle blower? You don’t, unless you are directly involved, which no one here would believe.
@The Skeletons Daisy Trump will hit you in the eye, then tell you he didn’t do it. He will say it long enough to make you believe it.
The most corrupt WH and senate in history of democracies! By far. Will it take down America… That’s what we’re watching.
They let Trump taint the oval office and the presidency for ever,why because they let him do too much for too long,Folks we are the modern day Rome..God help us with the next chapter 🙏🏾
@kim Lewis Rome had a few more problems during the republican period like endless civil wars. A roman general would get his commission from the senate then immediately attack the capital and demand money and power.
@Graham6762 yes your right,because America will have another civil war soon, white/anger against people of color is on a all time high..we are also witnessing a slow moving coup..so yes we are the MODERN DAY ROME
@kim Lewis There are some parallels like at the end of the republican period of Rome you had a few families hand power back and forth. We almost had that with bush and clinton handing power back and forth.
your knowledge of american history is weak. several presidents were as crooked. be thankful, he hasn’t started a war yet, i wish that were more typical of presidents. mind you, they don’t make war, they just dispatch special forces on bandit raids.
The whistle blower should just skip obstructionist Barr and go straight to Congress with the details of his-her complaint to avoid another Barr coverup for Traitor trump.
@Ash Roskell Why is it every moron I talk to brings up Russia in every conversation? The indoctrination is so deep and ingrained in these drones it is astounding. The brainwashing must be really scientific and successful.
Graham👈😡❄️: “Military Grade Encryption,” is only useful, when you’re not talking on you personal iPhone, instead of using Official Communications, you DOLT! Thanks for the genuine lol, though 🤣. You haven’t been following this story at ALL have you, son? 🤣 😂 😆 😂 🤣
Barr is not supposed to be involved in this
@Graham6762 since when is there military grade encryption on Twitter?
It’s almost like the American democratic system is not rigorous enough to protect laws and check behaviour.
The whole system is corrupt to the core
The Russians realized that Evangelicals would betray the United States over Abortion. The Christian Right are America’s Traitors and Trump’s Base.
These Evangelicals don’t believe their god is real. It’s just comfortable to belong to a large and influencial group.
None of them is brave enough to admit any of those doubts to their peers.
@Dane Hart First… this is not CNN… slow your roll…
Ralph Boyd I agree but don’t call them Christian, they are religious. There is big difference. I am a Christian and no one could put me into anyone of those slots. They call themselves Christian o get votes from religious voters. Now remember I said religious not Christian. Pence is religious not Christian.
Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren, Obama, are all Christian. Do not generalize to incite hate against a group just because you hate them personally.
@Hector G. They are real Christians not Evangelicals who are just Traitor Klansmen who stashed their hoods.
Mafia Trump company owns and rules the USA country including USA female genitals with his criminal Republicans.
Man Yau Edwin Law and male genitals w circumcision. Which is inhumane.
The worst crime here may be the AG defending a criminal president rather than we the people of the United States of America.
ruth depew Barr is just another crony who will do Trump ‘s bidding. A sad day for America when you have a con president who has hijacked almost all the American institutions designed to keep America safe.
After Barr lied about the Mueller Report, we really can’t expect so-called AG Barr to really start doing his job. He’s always been a political fixer for a corrupt POTUS since Iran-Contra.
Meanwhile Republicans are saying it’s ok for the president to sell out the country or do what he wants because he’s the president and that it’s the snitches who are the enemy🤣🤣🤣. I didn’t realize we were now a full blown mob government.
The whistleblower doesn’t know that he’s scheduled for a suicide when barr arrives.
D MP Kink of like Epstein?
It feels like movie in a making! I can’t wait! Especially when Trump is FIRED by the citizens of USA & his whole family jailed!
That will take place if everybody gets out to the polls in 2020 and votes Trump out.
trump is a traitor.
Sold US to putin.
The whistle blower needs to either get all the facts to congress ASAP or get protection from trump’s White House… cause Barr and Trump are gonna try to silence him for good…. like they did Epstein 😳
Whistleblower : Hide behind your lawyer with a prescription for beta blockers.
You are a real hero.
Trump apparently is deluded about how no one is above the law. Sadly, due to his advanced case of mental illness, Trump doesn’t see anything wrong with using the resources of the US to extort help for his reelection in 2020. Trump needs to step down and seek help, both from a good psychiatrist and a good lawyer. Rudy won’t cut it when the sworn testimony hits the fan.
Trump should be charged with the espionage act not the whistler blower trump is the most unethical immoral corrupt rat that ever put their feet in the Whitehouse . Trump has trodden on every norm that has excisted since whenever and is turning America into a dictator run country I really think he must be stopped by any means available even iff this means u know what
Adam Schiff & Congress must provide the whistle blower full protection and security NOW!!! Otherwise you will have another suicide like Epstein. U get a entertainer to be President, you get Hollywood scenario alive. Wakakakaka!!!
Trump has forgotten that HE SERVES THE PEOPLE….Hope this diesnt end like Rome/Greece…..
Whistleblower has one of the best lawyers on the subject. We’ll find out soon.
