Spicey should remember when to keep his mouth closed as well.

Anderson Cooper will be interviewing Sally Yates on CNN tonight.

cozietoesie · 16/05/2017 14:56

Do you know at roughly what time, Seneca?

SenecaFalls · 16/05/2017 15:01

cozie I've seen promos advertising it for his regular show Anderson Cooper 360 which in my time zone is 8 pm (Eastern Standard Time.)

cozietoesie · 16/05/2017 15:06

So about 01.00 UK time ? (Or thereafter.)

Thanks, Seneca.

cozietoesie · 16/05/2017 15:13

Hey Ho.

Yates interview advance warning

lionheart · 16/05/2017 15:21

I am looking forward to the interview but this business must be messing with sleep patterns all over the globe.

I read somewhere online that one of his phone calls he made the other night was to Egypt (there was some speculation that they were the unfortunates to share their info with the US).

OnTheDarkSideOfTheSpoon · 16/05/2017 15:22

Ha cozie, despite clocking that it was the Daily Mash I promptly forgot that and still thought it sounded plausible until he mentioned the different naming systems Grin

This thread is perhaps one of the best explainations of why Trump is still in office, why impeachment is still some way off - if it ever happens.

This is about breaking the Republican Party whilst Trump wreaks havoc. The IC will leak to undermine them as a whole, if that's what it takes for national security. This then in turn makes them almost appear as if they are the 'deep state' Breitbart talk about which feeds the Trump core its raw meat.

So watch the Republican squirm. Not Trump.

cozietoesie · 16/05/2017 15:25

He'd throw the GOP under the bus wholesale if needed.

Pain

It's, sadly, becoming rather like anticipating DPRK tweets. Whatever is said, however implausible, might just have been issued.

OnTheDarkSideOfTheSpoon · 16/05/2017 15:30

I don't know which European country it is but I'd imagine most of them are feeling this way

BREAKING: European official to AP: Country might stop sharing intel with US if Trump gave classified info to Russian diplomats.

JUST IN: Republican McCain calls reports that Trump shared sensitive intelligence with Russian officials 'deeply disturbing'.

Squirm level rating: About an 8 and a half.

cozietoesie · 16/05/2017 15:39

Didn't someone post a hilarious tweet about similar last night? Grin

cozietoesie · 16/05/2017 15:41

The markets aren't happy by the way.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 16/05/2017 15:54

Aides yelling in the White House
reportedly.

I'm sure we must all be being trolled.

OnTheDarkSideOfTheSpoon · 16/05/2017 16:07

I thought this was a good point:

Peter Daou @peterdaou
Look out for these meaningless words from lawmakers:
CONCERNING
TROUBLING
DISTURBING
Their job is to DO SOMETHING, not feel something.

This person is definitely 'in the know'

Possible that Boente and will be asking for senate approval to arrest when they go on Thursday.

Lastnight' story leaked so as to ratchet pressure behind getting Trump removed asap.

Supreme Court fully briefed and PUestoLoco seems to have source close to Supreme Court.

Mensch's story about indictments ready from a few days back looks less bonkers by the minute

CaveMum · 16/05/2017 16:33

Press Briefing from McMaster is imminent according to BBC News channel. They're gong to cut to it when he appears.

And that's a win for Russia in itself. And for Isis too.

cozietoesie · 16/05/2017 16:37

Is this to be a proper presser with question, Cave?

cozietoesie · 16/05/2017 16:38

Sorry. questions. (Although thinking about it...........) Wink

CaveMum · 16/05/2017 16:39

They didn't say cozie, just that they were expecting him to speak very shortly. I'm due to leave to pick up DD in 10 minutes so will probably miss it.

CaveMum · 16/05/2017 16:40

Just cut to a shot of the WH Press Briefing room, they're ready for him but he's not there yet.

How To Spot A Leaker, According To The FBI
These training slides say that an "insider threat" could be ... almost anyone. They warn that government employees who drink, brag about what they know, or work odd hours could all be leakers or spies. "YOU are the 1st Line of Defense!"
