Something wonderful is happening. And liberals are furious about it.

Yup, I hate that. I get drawn into it sometimes, because the material is often times interesting. So I'll click on these stupid click-bait slideshows that keep you in suspense, lol. I got smart yesterday though, and just looked up the subject, and read about it in full on a regular website, lol.

Super interesting tale, in case you're interested. Maybe you've already read about it, but it made me all kinds of late for work yesterday. :D

I almost didn't read it because I'm not into socialite uber-wealthy stories -- but then I got sucked in. Damn. How gullible we all are!

Nah, worse than that even. I don't think Trump has proposed handing the press over to the government.

Do I think the NYT are assholes for publishing that crap? Of course. Do I think they should face government persecution over it? Of course not. Now if the article writer broke any laws, prosecute them. I don't blame Trump one bit for being pissed and lashing out, but he's obviously not a legal expert.

Nor does he know anything about our Constitution.

From the NYT:

"WASHINGTON — President Trump intensified his attack Friday on an anonymous Op-Ed essay published in The New York Times, declaring that he wanted Attorney General Jeff Sessions to investigate the source of the article, which he has condemned as an act of treason.

"Mr. Trump said he was also considering action against The Times, though he did not elaborate. Prosecutors said it would be inappropriate for the Justice Department to conduct such an investigation, since it was likely that no laws were broken, while The Times said it would be an abuse of power.

"Speaking to reporters on Air Force One as he traveled to Fargo, N.D., Mr. Trump said, “I would say Jeff should be investigating who the author of that piece was because I really believe it’s national security.”"

Obama was an alleged legal expert and he used Holder to go after Fox’s James Rosen.

If Trump did that—well, I don’t even want to think about it.

Barack Hussein Milhous Benito O'Bama did far worse than that. Libs have got the industrial duty partisan blinders on with this one.

Should President Trump need a model to use to track down leakers inside his administration like the “anonymous” insider who challenged his authority in a New York Times op-ed, he need go no further back than the Obama administration that prosecuted leakers and shutout the media.

According to reports at the time from even New York Times journalists, no administration was tougher on leakers and punishing to the media than Obama’s, a saga reinforced by reporters who have called Trump’s team more forthcoming.

C'mon though, this young chick was a hell of a gifted grifter. That would make a good movie, if done right. I was almost rooting for her at the end, lol.

Are you equally as critical of those on your side of the aisle who are constitutionally illiterate? ;)

I know, right? Pretty little sociopath who knew exactly how to get what she wanted. Now she's in prison. I bet she'll come out with even more skillz.

Haha, yeah. It even said toward the end of the story, she had befriended an identy thief in prison, and she couldn't believe how easy it was to steal someone's identity.

It is so nice, having a POTUS who keeps his promises. Especially when it saves taxpayers money and pisses off the commie traitor liberals. I hope they choke on it.

Your probably months away from prison.
Enjoy your freedom while you have it, Jesus freak.
 
It's funny Grugore says saves tax payers money. Who does he think is paying for these tax breaks for the wealthy, that will remain?
