Trump gets caught ... again!

House oversight committee demands all documents related to Jared Kushner’s security clearance. If he doesn’t compy Monday, subpoenas will be issued and a whole new level of shit will his the fan.

If Trump has the authority to grant security clearance, why did he lie about it?

And why did he go against his chief of staff and his intel community and ram through clearance for Kushner and his lying daughter anyway?

Don Don shoulda made the Solozzo deal!

NYT catches Trump in apparent lie about Jared Kushner's security clearance


Despite the president’s assurances to the contrary, Donald Trump ordered his former chief of staff John Kelly to grant his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, a top-level security clearance, the New York Times reported Thursday.

Kelly, who was ousted from his White House role in December, detailed the order in a contemporaneous memo written in May of last year, as did the White House counsel at the time, Don McGahn.

In January, Trump summoned the New York Times to the Oval Office, where he sat for an interview with reporters and the paper’s publisher, A.G. Sulzberger. During that interview, Trump was asked directly if he had overridden the advice of security officials and ordered that Kushner be given the top-level clearance.

“Did you tell Gen. Kelly or anyone else in the White House to overrule security officials? The career veterans?” the Times asked the president.

“No, I don’t think I have the authority to do that,” Trump responded. “I’m not sure I do. But I wouldn’t, I wouldn’t do it. Jared’s a good — I was, I was never involved with his security. I know that he, you know, just from reading, I know that there was issues back and forth about security for numerous people, actually. But I don’t want to get involved in that stuff.”

Kushner and his wife, Trump’s daughter Ivanka, both stated in separate interviews that the president had played no role in the awarding of security clearances for the couple.

One day after the White House counsel’s office recommended that Kushner be denied a top-level security clearance, the Times reported, Trump personally ordered Kelly to grant it.

Fake news....... bahahahahahaha

Unfortunately for all of us, the current White House lawyers have decided not to comply with the federal anti-nepotism statue of 1967. No one should be able to give their family jobs when paid for by the taxpayer. It leads to corruption of office.

Yawn

Dang sup...are you saying twit head lied AGAIN....wtf. His ignorant believers believe everything he twits or says. Even if what he says ways not what he said...it was miss understood by smart people

The President is the sole authority on who can be granted a security clearance. He is Commander in Chief.

If he orders the State Department to grant his Son in Law a SC, that’s it.

What law was broken?

BAHHAHAAAAA

Why did he lie about it, peoples?

If he’s the “sole authority” then why did he lie about it?

Why did the intel community oppose Kushner’s clearance?

Spit, stamp your feet, piss your pantaloons, or whatever you need to do to express yerseffs.

But Trump’s a) incredibly crooked and an asshole or b) incredibly ignorant of his job (and an asshole).

He shoulda made the deal with Solozzo.

You keep forgetting Trumpy is a performance artist, like Lady Gaga. I tried to explain it to you 2 years ago but you still don't get it.

"Donald Trump treats the truth as only one of several props he’s willing to use to achieve an effect. Truth sits on his workbench alongside hyperbole, sentimentality, bluster and just kidding. Use as needed."

BAAHAHAHA!!

Honesty is a virtue, LL, not a prop.

Pity you can’t tell the difference.

Ironic that the party that insists the government legislate morality has become the party of dishonesty and lies.

They’ve lost their ID and replaced it with a combover.

WOW!!! Politicians lie. Who'd a thunk it?

I suppose it never occurred to you that it might be a good thing to have a POTUS who can compete with professional prevaricators like Putin and Kim Jong-un? Remember when Ike was preparing for D-day? Didn't he lie to Hitler about where the invasion was going to take place - Calais, not Normandy? How many lives did that lie save?

Who is the party of lies again? Do you mean the party that spouted all those falsehoods about Benghazi and missing State Department emails? How do those lies stack up against fibbing about letting your son-in-law participate in NSC meetings?

Spare us your phony morality, yssup.
