How petty and insecure can Trump get....Nothing on Hunter Biden's laptop amounted to anything but embarrassment for Hunter Biden who is a private citizen....WTF does the laptop have to do with Trump or National Security....How pathetic but typical of Trump to seek revenge for something so trivial and irrelivant???

Huh

Trump is just getting rid of liars as well as woke layabouts.

It would be fine if Hunter Biden was a government official, or member of Congress, but he isn't. He's a private citizen, so Trump has no right to go after him. Quite hypocritical of Trump, actually - crying foul about a supposedly weaponised Justice Department and then he sets out to make it a weapon for him to go after anyone he dislikes or feels wronged him in some real or imaginary way. Hence why Biden issued a slew of pardons yesterday.

Yup. Trumpy wants vengeance. Typical narcissist.

Simple really, if you have security clearance and you then sign letters to lie to the public then you lose you security clearance. It would be incompetent not to do so.

Knocking out 51 career federal agents.

Shurely shome mishtake.

We will make America great again, no?

He not only revoked John Bolton's security clearance, he also revoked his Secret Service protection (which had been reinstated by Biden after Trump pulled it in his first term). Bolton has legitimate security concerns as he has been targeted by terrorists before. This is yet another example of Trump being petty and vindictive.

And if anyone harms Bolton, they won't be punished.

Thanks bobby......

@ OP and Reply #3,

baron, bobby,

To call 51 individuals, who lied as a servant [of their nation], .....LIARS.
and to remove their 'privileges', so that they must relinquish their employment.....

It doesn't seem enough.

CONSIDER;

These persons, EVERY ONE OF THEM, accepted a position of national trust
[a trust which they, individually, must have confirmed with a personal oath of allegiance],
then, each one of them,
[seemingly] chose to LIE, or, chose to promote the widespread belief in a LIE,

in order to undermine truth and lawful process,

in the nation which they had sworn to serve with honour.

All that happened.

And then they are [merely] 'called out', as LIARS ??

It doesn't seem enough.

What they did, was a treasonous act......imo.

Q.
What is the lawful penalty, in the U.S., for the crime of treason ?

treason = = the crime of betraying one’s country,
especially by attempting to kill or overthrow the sovereign or government.

Was there any investigation first? Of course not, the baby is throwing his toys out the cot.

It gets references a lot, each time there is a change of power in the US, even here in Aus, but this is the first time there are so many parallels to the the night of the long knives.

It's a little terrifying.

I thought I'd be able to have sympathy for those impacted by what will happen for the next 4 years, but now, at least for those who chose the outcome we have, when they start feeling the pain of their choice, with their higher taxes, higher cost of living, higher inflation, worse healthcare and job outcomes, I'm going to laugh at them.

They fu

cked

around and found out.

No sympathy for them, not anymore.

They deserve everything they get.

I expect the Internet will start keeping a list, like the Herman Cain Awards.
