The White House posted a photo of Trump alongside Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, Director of Personnel Dan Scavino, and other administration officials on its X account on Saturday evening. The photo shows a makeshift room surrounded by black curtains and multiple maps of the region.

Jesus H Fucking Christ. This is a security violation, severe damage to national security, complete incompetence and insult to all of us who take national security seriously of epic proportions.

Also leaving couch fucker in vice president actually in charge in the situation room is such a dereliction of duty.

    Looking at this photo as well as a few others, I have identified like 14 opsec failures.

    This administration is a fucking joke.

        What press dude let that out?

        • He looks like he’s 90 and not 79
        • He didn’t have time to do his hair
        • He looks pissed and scared at the same time? Not sure how that’s possible, but it’s true.

      I mean look at that solid SecOps with that curtain separating them and their secure comms from the rest of the international golfers that are definitely not spies.

    A security violation? From the guy who said “You’re the president of the United States, you can declassify just by saying it’s declassified, even by thinking about it.” during an interview? From the administration that accidentally texted it’s plans to bomb Yemen to a journalist 2 hours before the attack? You mean the guy that tweeted photos from a satellite so classified, the last guy that leaked photos from it was sent to jail for espionage? The guy that stole hundreds of classified documents and destroyed an unknown number more? Nah…

      All the first parts are actually legit, the entire intelligence apparatus is designed to gather information for POTUS. They can declassify stuff solo. Like everything else its assumed the elected official will do their job and not just blab for fun.

        POTUS cannot declassify stuff solo. They can declare they want to declassify a document but then a team reviews the document and blacks out content that can’t be declassified such as intelligence agents and assets in the field. POTUS cannot declare a doc declassified and then just hand out copies.

    What a bullshit country we’ve become.

    We’ve arranged ourselves to be in compliance with the content of one, doddering racist’s fever dream of America.

    The video of him walking around shaking hands and getting back pats from the abundantly available sycophants and psychopaths at Mar-A-Lago while he launches an illegal war to further destabilize an entire region and kill 100+ children at a hospital is viscerally disgusting.
