“I only regret that I have but one face to palm for my country.”

Sunday, October 27, 2019

Idiots.

Is it not possible for a reporter to give a moment's thought before charging off with a narrative?
"He also disclosed that Russia was given a heads-up about the operation, even as top Democrats in Congress were not. “We told them, 'We’re coming in … and they said, ‘Thank you for telling us,’" Trump said. But he added, “They did not know the mission.”

Trump said, however, that he didn’t tell House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) because he worried about leaks spoiling the operation. And before the news conference, there were reports that Trump also hadn’t notified House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), who is a leader of the impeachment inquiry against Trump but would generally be a member of Congress you’d inform about these things.

Trump seems to be indicating that he trusts Russia with this information more than congressional Democrats, which will be a talking point in the days ahead.
"
That's because the helicopter's weren't flying through Pelosi/Schiff-controlled airspace where they would have been shot down by Democratic party SAMS if proper deconfliction protocols hadn't been followed, you numbskull.

And I don't remember John Boehner or Mike Rogers being anywhere in the famous Neptune Spear Situation Room photograph.
