Presidency-ending scandals for any POTUS from Truman to Obama, massively endangering US national security, now happening on a daily basis, while Congress sits on its hands & does nothing. Total, comprehensive failure of Article I of the Constitution.

FT Exclusive: Peter Navarro, one of the US president’s closest advisers, is pushing for the US to remove Canada from the Five Eyes intelligence-sharing network — which also includes the UK, Australia and New Zealand. www.ft.com/content/2dfa...

What will happen is they’ll just form a new group and exclude us, making US less safe. Truly fucking unreal threat to our national security.

You guys got congress?

The US should be removed from Five Eyes and they soon will be. What arrogance. Putin tells Dotard to do something and he just blindly goes with it.

"I am going to threaten to conquer our NATO allies, align with Russia in the UN, & destroy our most important intelligence-sharing alliance"

Imagine Barack Obama or even George H.W. Bush had said this. The Senate impeachment conviction would already have happened.

They care so much about boarder security that they are continuing to attack the soveignty and safety of the friendly country whom the US shares it's longest boarder with? That's not just bad policy, that's bad politics.

Either you can be a China hawk & care about US power & national security, or you can support these policies. The entire Republican Party, in doing nothing while controlling Congress & all of this is happening, is showing that it can never be trusted with national security policy ever again.

At this point, Mark, wouldn’t it be prudent, both logically & politically tactical, for them to remove the US from the agreement or do you think they’re still too scared of repercussions at this point? Which frankly, seem inevitable, so why not? Damned if they do, damned if they don’t kind of thing.

It's like they believe the relative safety, security and prosperity of the US since 1946 spontaneously came into existence—do they not understand there's a massive amount of work, expertise & investment underpinning our strength? At this point, I expect Trump to sell the F-35 to the highest bidder.

He'll make every business give him a piece of any new major international or domestic investment/deal—perhaps through his so-called "Sovereign Wealth Fund." Trump and his MAGA cult are going steal every dollar they can, from giving unqualified cronies jobs to awarding corrupt contracts to friends.

Not long ago Ami Berger wrote, “The last 7 years have been a nonstop reminder that all the guardrails protecting our democracy that we thought were set in stone were actually just tissue paper constructed mostly of good faith, a general dislike of fascism, and a streak of luck that has now run out.”

He wants to kick us out of five eyes where most of the other eyes are part of the Commonwealth, which we are a part of what an incredibly stupid idea! More likely the US will be kicked out of five eyes morons

What a dick move. It's not like the other commonwealth nations aren't going to just turn around and share with Canada. Hopefully no one dies due to those sorts of delays.

Irrelevant. No one will share any sensitive intelligence with US for decades

Maybe white voters shouldn’t have handed all three branches of Government to the GOP

Pretty sure we will be pushed out. Since we joined the axis of evil.
