Ex-CIA official: Trump White House is a 'runaway train'

[JohnnyApplesack]

this guy is spot on, historic times indeed




A former top official in the CIA and Defense Department describes the Trump White House as a "runaway train," saying "criminal liability" from the 2016 presidential election could extend "all the way to the top."

"The image I have in my head of the White House is a runaway train," Jeremy Bash, a former CIA and Defense Department chief of staff in the Obama administration, said in an interview with MSNBC anchor Brian Williams Thursday night, after former national security adviser Michael Flynn offered to testify in ongoing Russia probes in exchange for immunity.

He added that Justice Department officials would have to weigh whether Flynn's testimony would warrant protection from prosecution.


"For the Justice Department to agree to give somebody like him immunity it means they want him to turn and testify against someone higher up in the food chain," Bash said.

"Who is higher up in the food chain, higher than the national security adviser? There's really only one person. And so this shows that the jeopardy of criminal liability actually extends all the way to the top."

This whole mess was caused by one person - trump.

And he just can't seem to help himself. He's a drama queen and a pathological liar.

Before this is over, he will have destabilized the entire world.

Trump is not the cause but the consequences. So getting rid if Trump is merely getting rid of the symptom not the illness.

Wrong. It is caused by career politicians, and career bureaucrats, who are fighting tooth and nail, through legal and illegal methods, to prevent trump from dismantling the work that progressives have been engaged in for decades, and that is the destruction of this country.

Tell that to all the middle class people who were fucked over by the obummer admin, who would have been finished off by the shrilary admin had she won. Fakey, you are on the wrong side if you are going to try that argument.

blah blah blah

quit acting like a 12 year old hissy you cannot possibly prove the nonsense about Clinton (ps: getting rid of Clinton was good, now Trump has to go)

The answer, the only sensible answer, is that you do not give a flying flip for the middle class.

You want to bring down the system, chestywesty.

The facts are well known you progressive putz. The middle class was harmed more under obummer than they were under both bushies. The shrilary was going to double down on stupid. Trolls, like you living under a bridge don't care, but the middle class is breathing a huge sigh of relief. The ARE the ones, after all, who voted for the trumpster, and not her.

You keep writing nonsense. You cannot prove what you say. We have this problem because the far right trolls and the conservative dems will not accept that the health insurance is concentrated only on their profit and not their services. Expanded Medicare into which everybody pays is the only answer. Those who want their own health care outside of Medicare can pay for it themselves, but they don't get a walk on paying into Medicare anymore than property owners can exempt themselves from public school taxes.

What a liar. Your GOP had us very close to the Second Great Republican Depression when President Obama took over. 750,000 jobs in a month down the tube. Unemployment over 10%, and the market went down to 6500. When President Obama passed the baton to the orange clown, the unemployment was down to 4.7%, and the stock market almost at 20.000. This old upper middle class blue collar worker has seen his wages go up every year, except 2009, that Obama was President.

The primary loss of middle class jobs is from automation. And if you were or are doing a job so simple that a machine can do it, then you had better get some education, because that job will be automated. But for the craftsmen, there are 6,000,000 jobs in the US that are going begging.

Children and young adults have absorbed the democrat opinion that skilled craftsmen should be treated with disdain and told they are stupid, uneducated rubes.

So, the young reject the crafts for college degrees in Women's Studies, The history of Transgenders, Human Sexuality and any other study for which there is no possibility of employment.

There are a lot of doctors that won't take medicare now. Expand medicare and even fewer doctors will accept medicare. How do you propose to enslave the doctors?

Make it single payer competitive bidding. More doctors will get in and the prices will be lower.

hyperbolic bs

Medicaid is supposedly the hardest to use by patients, more so than widely accepted Medicare.....here's the deal

The Pinocchio Test

Ryan highlights a real problem of lower fees for doctors who take Medicaid patients, and the potential impact on patients’ access to care. But there’s not enough data so far to support his claim, especially in the insurance landscape after some states extended pay increases for doctors who take Medicaid patients.

Experts who study the data say they have not yet seen evidence that fewer doctors are taking Medicaid patients. One way they measure that is by looking at patients’ access to timely care. The level of access for patients varies across states, and there are mixed outcomes. Medicaid enrollees report facing more problems getting appointments than those with private insurance, and finding specialists. But in general, Medicaid enrollees are as likely to have a usual source of medical care as people with private insurance.

Paul Ryan’s claim that ‘more and more doctors just won’t take Medicaid’
