Who investigated? Geek Squad? Everything I have seen said anyone who wanted a peek saw what was on it. That more than a few of our agents got killed. Do you really think Trump did not consult before doing this? Get serious. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength |

I'm offended by the compliment. Be bold and risk defeat, or be cautious and encourage it. |

Yeah, that is why he is a self-made billionaire known the world over and became POTUS despite having to fight not just the Democrat but the press and the GOP. Get serious. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength |

That's what I was going to say. Presidents never do anything without getting 14 different opinions. Trump haters love to fantasize that he wanders around the WH throwing switches and releasing secret documents on a whim. Nothing could be further from the truth. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

There is one report POTUS gets every morning that even he cannot keep lest someone see it on his desk. He gets it, looks at it while the delivery officer waits, then gives it back. That is hardly the only failsafe. I laugh at these haters. On one hand the guy is a clown. OTOH, he is doing all this top-level stuff you need a genius IQ to do even part of. Meanwhile the Democrats just promised to destroy coal, oil, and gas industries if elected! War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength |

I read this story https://www.cnn.com/2019/09/09/politics/russia-us-spy-extracted/index.html The Obama-related bit is
Being worried about an asset becoming compromised due to the length of time that they had been used is certainly different than information being declassified that can be tied to an asset in the field. Can you clarify what you mean? It looks like you are saying it's ok to expose a spy while they are still in the field because they were in danger already.
