Really?  Never been wrong? 
Ya know President Trump is always right too. 
Never even asked Jesus for forgiveness, because he "don't make such bad things."

Get over it for heaven's sake!!!

Like him or not Pres. Trump IS standing between losing this country our sovereignty or saving her.  I'd rather side with saving her.

America.  What would YOU do without her?

Is leaking Top Secret destination information treason? Could the charge of
willful endangerment of an important official be warranted?

Afghanistan is a big country. Did anyone tip off the bad guys specifically where Pelosi was hoping to go? She wasn't endangered in the least (well, maybe her liver, but that's another story).

Do you know of anybody 'else' with any power that's trying to thwart the open borders leftists by securing our border ... with or without a damned wall?   I don't.

So tell me... who DO you support right now in DC?

They don't need to.  They impeach in the House, but I am hoping President Trump becomes the first President removed.  Another first!!!

Seriously, that's what you're hoping.  The would give us a President Pence, who the DEMS will try anything and everything to remove him as well which would give us a President Pelosi.!!!

IF, and big IF, it ever got to a President Pence, he would appoint a VP who would still be ahead of the insane old coot from San Fran.

   Just as Nixon appointed Ford after Agnew resigned and then Ford appointed Rockefeller when Nixon resigned (to avoid impeachment).  San Fran Nan will never be President.

Ineffective?   

From my perspective, he has been trying for two years... but the DemocRATS in Congress, with the help of the deep state GOP RINOs (who are, in effect, also DemocRATS) have thwarted those attempts at every step.  They can't stand the very thought of a "Trump win" with Americans... and securing the borders and building that wall would equate to a HUGE win for Trump.

Hell, that's why Shulosi doesn't want a SOTU this year.  They're afraid too many Americans might watch it and find out how really good the economy is doing under Trump.... vs. how suckily it did under eight years of Bathhouse Barry and the usual suspect socialist Democrats.

You're batting for the wrong team here, if you're cheering for the Democrats, pal.

oh yeah?  he's trying. oh ok then.  I guess abject failure is ok.  It's not like he promised to build a wall, and make Mexico pay for it AND THEN has 2 years of GOP majority in both chambers of Congress.  When you put it that way..."he tried" It reminds me what a Alpha-Male Trump is.

Yeah, well... while some may call me a pessimist... I am, in fact, a realist.  And yeah, I have been paying attention to what's gone on for the past (especially) two years.   Campaign promises are one thing... being able to carry out those promises is quite another.  I know full well who and what he is up against.  It's the same entity that I have observed, been commenting on and have loathed for the past two decades and counting.  And unfortunately.... folks like you only end up helping and aiding their movement and cause.   So even if you aren't aware of.... or don't admit to cheering for the rats... by virtue of your stance on Trump (hoping for his impeachment, IOW)...

you're helping them, nevertheless.

And even tho I didn't vote for Trump.... that puts you on the opposite side of where I'm at.

The destination of the trip was not top secret. It was all over the news.

As far as I can tell, the "leak" was a) that they were going on a trip that was outside the scope of their jobs and b) that they were doing so rather than stay to work on getting employees paid, and c) that it was a spouses and friends junket paid for by the taxpayers.

Has anyone reported how many people (congresscritters, spouses, staffers, whatever) planned to go on this junket to Brussels, and how much it would have cost the taxpayers? Were they going to drop some of them off at Davos?

“At this point, what difference does it make?”  The fact that Executive Branch funds were being used by Congress gives the POTUS the right to cancel the expense while a portion of the government (Executive Branch) is unfunded.
