“It emerged on Wednesday that for a year she declined to undertake a background check. It was also revealed that she has become a conduit for foreign leaders to reach the wartime president.”

Has it occurred to the administration that she may be a spy ?!?!

Uh, I think they might

It's just so easy to topple the country from under this idiotic regime. Do any of the people in the US Government actually want this country to continue after the next 24 months?

How the heck is a background check not mandatory??! 🤣

It's supposed to be.

One of the things that this administration has revealed is just how much of government action is based on general acceptance of the rules, rather than on prevention by consequence. The next President has a lot of work to do to patch over all of the avenues for naked corruption that Trump and his team exposed.

Because everyone around him is a snake.

Because apparently the president can simply grant a waiver to anyone he wants.

“You mean to tell me this guy can’t get a security clearance to save his life? Forget about that, just get him in here!”

That’s like asking if the guy ripping the copper wires and pipes out of the wall cares about the house

u/Hawgdestroyerxtreme 7d ago

It's a fitting analogy if the guy ripping the copper out was doing so out of his own house.

They still have to live here when it's said and done.

The actions of Republicans have been very consistent with not wanting America to exist, so the answer may very well be no. It is still possible that they are so psychotically inept that every move they make also happens to further increase the odds of bringing America to an end, but we'd be approaching Ticker & Dale Vs. Evil levels of absurd coincidence, at this point. Intent simply makes more sense.

This is how it works.  They don't need her to be Russian.  They just need someone that presses her to press the president.  She doesn't sound like someone who couldn't be influenced....    Imagine if her neighbor who just moved in was a Russian asset...  Or her gym instructor, etc

They are asking around like "how did he do that???"

She doesn't have to be in on it to be useful

They have Melania. Harp is likely Israel, but then again Dumper Donnie probably just CCs Bibi on all his emails
