A Private Briefing? Which of Our Senators Will Break the Silence

first, following this unprecedented summons to the White House? When will we learn what went on there?

I assume the briefing has begun, of course without any news people or cameras admitted. We are going to have to rely on our loyal Democratic Senators to brief us. I am waiting very impatiently for that to occur.

You mean, which [D] will compromise national security and let secrets out of a top secret briefing...

1. The lack of transparency and paper trail the DT admin wants is unprecedented...

To claim they have nothing to show for Flynns time is disturbing. They even tried to get RW outlets on board with their secret meeting and it didn't go over entirely well.
This shit is crazy. There's no NDLs when you're working for the people.

3. I wouldn't put it past the Trumpinistas to super-de-duper-classify the whole session...then tell the senators all kinds of insanely scary stuff, and jail any of them that talked.

2. Franken will fill us in

I've got little doubt any and all the [D]s would violate the NS security protocols in order to score political points. I just hope they get arrested and tried for treason if they do.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

It's a briefing that will include classified information. AFAIK, no one will be (was)forced to attend.

Of course much of what was revealed to them will be leaked by Trump-hating Ds. They hate Trump too much to give a @#$% about harming this country, especially people in the military.

MM should worry that the D leakers will get caught. Depending on what they leak - and their Trump-Hatred will cloud their judgment - some D Senators or staffers could face legal consequences more significant than could be easily made to disappear.

Democrats?  AYFKM?!?  Whichever one gets to their favorite reporter first, of course.  And a few backstabbing RINOs, too.

IIRC, it's Senators only.  No staffers allowed.

Just to be clear: The first and foremost job of a Democrat is to destroy the United States of America. Nothing less is acceptable in the party.
