If these guys are the source of leaks, they don't care about the pay and perks. In fact, they're likely to go to jail, if the law enforcement agencies do their jobs.
Trump also said to holt that he was thinking about the Russian thing when he decided to fire Comey. And more glaring is that he told the Russians the next day that he had been feeling a lot of pressure about the Russia investigation but then he fired Comey and that pressure is off. Those two incidents alone are pretty incriminating with regards to purposeful interference in an ongoing investigation. May or may not be illegal but could be sufficient to draw up articles for impeachment if Trump had a little less support amongst republicans.
He also said that he was thinking the firing would deepen and extend the investigation. That didn't deter him from doing the right thing. You quote on cherry picked sentence, because the media does. There is the whole truth out there, you won't find it on CNN or in the Times/WaPost.
Sounds nothing like the definition of Treason unless you can prove Trump wanted to win as a way to HURT America. There has never been one instance of anyone saying Trump didn't think he was the greatest person on Earth.
The word, the definition. Sedition Inciting resistance to lawful authority and tending to cause the disruption or overthrow of the government Calling for investigation of no crime known, must be as close as you can get. Calling for impeachment for no crime you can articulate, surely crosses the line. Obama fucked me and million of others out of their health care by making it legal to do it and used the incentive of a tax to make it happen. Fact, not sedition. Obama was a Kenyan, by right of descent. This is a fact, and mutually exclusive with Natural Born adjective along with Citizen to qualify for President. Constitution you know. I could go on, you have heard them before, not sedition, simply facts and actions against the Constitution. Like; shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed.. You might note, the word shall does not leave room for discretion. I see a very big difference, not double standard.
This is sort of silly....you give the media more power than it has..people do think for themselves and more often than not....that's the story. You no longer read or trust any content from CNN, Washington Post or New York Times....? You realize they buy stories from freelance journalists as well as publish their own staff's editorials....if you think those 3 news outlets are completely incapable of printing something that's true...well...I don't see news that way. I'll even listen to Fox news or BBC or the radio more often than not....Fox is the sketchiest from my filter...the BBC is no fan of Trump in tone either...I tend to agree with their slant pretty often
fuck that....nobody is inciting a govt overthrow around here....nobody is breaking a law....the disruptions didn't come from the populace...they came from fucking twitter ...you don't get to accuse me of sedition without getting called out on it..period..it's divisive as you can get and I don't think it's healthy at all to use the term in a political forum
If an honest person saw bigfoot and believed it I'd recommend a checkup. Or consider that it was a hoax and he honestly believed it to be real. Apparently some guy said so is all the proof you need, same with impeachable offenses.
don't accuse me of sedition then or question my patriotism simply because I voice distrust over an elected official I've never trusted or believed in...that's my right ...you have not convinced me with any posts why I should feel differently....
Idiotic. If one FBI agent thinks Trump colluded with Martians and is constantly stirring up shit he can be fired right? This is like if Comey were gay and Trump couldn't fire him just because he was afraid to get sued. Let's say Hillary wins next election and whoever is FBI director then doesn't want to get fired because she hates him. Should that FBI director announce some investigation into her so he is untouchable? If Comey has some evidence of something he can release it to the world if he wants. Or his supposedly loyal former employees.
Here is another truth for you. Disrupting the government (legally and Constitutional elected) is the only motive behind the bitching and bogus investigations. Calls for impeachment without a shred of evidence can't possible be driven by any other motive.
