Why Yes, It Does Look Like a Lot of Crimes

 

Jeffrey Goldberg followed up on yesterday's bombshell with more receipts, and well, yes, The chat itself is sketchy, Mike Waltz added Goldberg to the chat himself, the information Pete Hegseth shared with the group is what you might call "born classified" secret or top secret-level intelligence because it includes what weapons and what times, and yes, they were probably avoiding presidential record-keeping by having the chat set to disappear after a week and yes, cabinet member lied under oath about what happened, and while we are at it, a whole apartment building seems to have been leveled to get to one guy, which feel very war-crime-y. 

White House officials want to play semantic games but this is just what we're looking at--what they actually said, what statues and policy actually say. And who the journalist was or his political affiliation does not change those bare facts. 


Facts don't care about anyone's feelings--isn't that what we keep being told?

But for more brazen dissembling--here's Tulsi Gabbard:




Tulsi Gabbard cannot tell us at a given time what country she might have been in? I guess she just comes and goes, to Lebanon, Syria, meeting with dictators, whatever. But the Senate GOP knew this was what Trump's cabinet picks were like when they confirmed them, didn't they?

UPDATE: It is very reasonable to assume that personal communications devices and online accounts for some of these people are quite vulnerable.
