Nicolle Wallace, responding to his comments, calls the moment a "huge deal," as "Republicans in the Senate are. by and large, zombies, walking along as Donald Trump obliterates things like truth, the rule of law, and respect for our institutions."

    1. We thought the same way when GOP Senators were criticizing his Syria pullout. Within a week or so they were all silenced and on board. For something this big, I’ll wait 2 weeks to see what they’re saying.

    2. I wonder what he would have said if he had had time to cool off. I think there are a lot of republicans that don’t like how this administration is going but they love their own power so they go along with trump.

    3. @Mary Smith Going along with Trump is going to get a lot of them kicked out of office. It already has.

    4. @Tessmage Tessera the republicans have already abrogated much of their power and oaths to their office to trump. But with russias help many of them very well could remain in office..just sayin

    1. News paper Articles of bad spanking, after the articles of bad briefing are pealed off and throne and stick to the wall. The Whacky wall walker brief never really took off in the marketplace, I mean, how could they really.
      ItS not like they can get up and… Heeeeeey ?

  1. And, in a prior interview, the Secretary of Defense said “or weeks” so he is lying. Whether it is days or weeks, that does not qualify as “imminent.”

    1. @sinklairlewis
      Not that such blatant disregard for the truth would ever awaken the sheep from their slumber…
      Right here…

    2. @Yusuf Ginnah They are like cultist zombies, they have been brainwashed and are pathetic but they will never stop until we finally get rid of the Imbecile-in-Chief and his enablers and toadies. Sadly, they are so weak-minded that another conman demagogue will rise one day and they will follow that corrupt conman as well.

    1. Most democrat voters were born out of wedlock and didn’t have their father around that’s why they can relate to barry(no dad)Obama and Colin(no dad) kappernik

    2. digital tribe

      Reported.

      And most folks who talk like you stink of borscht and vodka.

      Hint.

      Hint hint.

  2. As soon as I heard it was a imminent threat I knew it was a lie, because the Trump administration lies about everything!

    1. exactly. and why no one is talking about that…gives me pause. Everyone is acting like there might be some other story. come on. When has this White House ever been telling us the truth.

    2. @Lynda Faye Half a story from faux is worse than knowing nothing. Iran’s money withheld, nobody gave them anything. You eat trumps bum for breakfast ?

    3. One divbypi he freed it up, same thing as giving it to them. They didn’t have it until Obama freed it up , now they have it. Pretty simple.

  3. Massive praise calling him a great leader and president then gets on his soap box about not being able to question anything. Where have you been the last few years this is how he has done business since being elected.

    Another hypocrite that needs to be voted out. Baby got put in a corner for the whole world to see and they didn’t like it.

    1. Andy Ortiz He sounds like an abused wife. I love, don’t hit me for speaking the truth. Boy has this party been slapped around.

  4. It’s about time they started waking up, Even if it’s one by one, Because a little Back Bone is better than none at all, Thank God for a possible Change and Courage ! ⏰

  5. Zombie just wakes up when he speaks. He is going back to Wombie walking aimlessly after he gets a call from the Russia Poodle.

  6. The reason why Trump doesn’t want discussion is because it could make trump look bad. The only thing Trump truly cares about is himself…..that’s it.

  7. Who didn’t think imminent attack was a lie since that’s Trump’s MO. Pompeo’s stories varied from the start and he used the word potential a lot.
