Why It Matters Trump Reportedly Ordered Kushner Get A Security Clearance | The 11th Hour | MSNBC

[sinistral]

If Trump has taught just one thing, it is that the office of the presidency has way too much unilateral power.

[Astrobrant]

Lying about things that someone doesn't need to lie about is a primary behavior of a pathological liar.

[covfefe]

Come on people, how many of us feel trump shouldn't have a security clearance, let alone Kushner?

[davidmanx]

Cut all the red tapes
lock down White House
Drag that mobster out
Charge him later
Call it mutiny, call it whatever
Save America from rotting any further
We don't want to see our *Doomsday*

[Elfin]

When will America start impeachment and get Trump and his family out of the Whitehouse. America needs to start fresh, so get Pence out too.

[edw]

Kushner is on a Trump Family business trip in the middle East.

[dennislafreniere]

‪Of course I ordered John Kelly to grant Kushner a top-secret security clearance, overruling intelligence officials. Jarred needs this information to give to Russia, Sadi Arabia & China in exchange for favours.We need their money to continue in business. UNLIMITED POWER & using it.‬

[charlenelord]

How long do the American people and how low do we have to stoop until the crime boss is removed from office???

[ruftime]

I can’t believe that every day we talk about lying one really seems to care...if it’s a politician :-(

[aldamane]

Busy sneaking around behind people's backs. Only cowards do that.

[javier]

Remember when y’all criticized Mexican government for being corrupt??? Lol your government is not that far behind 😂

[ThatCommentGuy]

The funny thing about the SDNY investigating Trump is that even after his run in office, he is STILL going to be under major investigation and even more vulnerable.

[crawlerjunkie]

Where dose this information come from?
It makes the difference of who and why we believe!
MAGA!

[jacqueslomba]

WHY THIS HUNTING ON THE PRESIDENT WHO HAS A HUGE CHARGE OF A GREAT COUNTRY. WHAT IMAGE DO YOU GIVE IN THE WORLD? IT'S A SHAME.

[speedracer]

Why have rules in the WH when the president can place a family member (s ) in a sensitive position and bypass  security protocol and your own intelligence dept.

[mikeraskin]

I'm curious as to why they don't subpoena Mueller, it seems like they wouldn't be able to get a general idea all of the charges with a small synapse of his case. They can keep it simple without affecting the investigation if they only ask questions that don't harm investigation

[jackieroberts]

I can’t believe you guys are considering the opinion of a man who ‘ locked up a nurse returning from fighting e-Bola in Africa, at the airport .

[series]

When you lie when there’s no need to that means you’re covering up something related to the lie

[m.a.]

Why is the news media giving anything Christie has to say any credence?

[squeezeracer]

Just arrest him on espionage and see how fast 45 comes to his aid.
