Well, then there is this - link

So, how is mentioning something I can see online a revealing of classified data?

Not in regards to this story, but there are lots of things that might be found online that are classified secret. It's not as if the gov't is going to "confirm or deny" to the owner of some website by calling them out on it. They will only force a scrub on web stuff that is very damaging. Otherwise they "ignore" it so as to not confirm anything.

It is still considered a leak though if a cleared person passes it on. In other words it is a leak if a cleared person links to or browses classified info even if it is available to the public on the web. The cleared person is supposed to know what is classified. Typically if something is pointed out on the web, they just block the site from gov't systems.

While it's true that Mr. Trump's candidacy is a disgrace, an embarrassment, and a tour de force of bad judgement in terms of Trump, his supporters, and the Republican party, this particular thing is simply not true.

Yeah. I know. It was a breaking story I corrected right away. I left it because I do think it's still a real issue. He has a hair trigger mouth and is easily baited and in my opinion no filter and has proven that time and time again. His relationships with the only people willing to loan him money anymore would also be a rather grave concern.

Surprised this is not in the hoax bin.
What a load of B.S - just shows how desperate some people are to tar other people with the very dirty Clinton brush.

Snopes and everyone else here declared it was false...again and again and again...including the OP.
The source even retracted the story.
So why is this STILL in the 'Breaking Political News' Forum?
Is there no 'Annotated Partisan BS Smear Propaganda' Forum where this thread would be more at home?

For goodness sake, people really need to get the hang of things. Trump doesn't need an intel briefing, he's right there in it, and gets paid for it.
For starters he's been courting Russia for decades....business is business isn't it? or perhaps more, so who's been hacking the Clinton e-mails then, that most here seem to be comfortable with..for instance?
Yes the OP is dicky, almost a blind, maybe that's because Washington Republicans have an insider who also deals with Ukraine, and also that the Republican platform no longer has reference to arming Ukraine against pro-russian rebels, while there is dissent amongst some Republicans on that decision, regardless as to how much they actually know about the situation in the Ukraine, another story in itself.
Whatever, Donald is there, and in as many beds he as he can make.
You can burn the midnight oil here, read it good, because in my humble opinion Trump is ultimately just making fools of those who support him, because he is all about himself..literally a carpetbagger, messing with the wrong people, and all you need to do, is find out who the wrong people are...that'll take a while.

Hilary is no great shakes, and personally I would not be enamoured by her, Trump however is something else.

Is that really all you got?? He wanted to build hotels in Moscow. Oh and he was supposed to have a meeting with Putin but he cancelled. Wow that's a solid link do you realize Hillary has taken money from Russians close to putin. And even campaign funds but Trump is the one with the ties yea right.

Without wasting precious oxygen too much, it's a darn sight more than offered in your repost. For a start, Russia is Russia, Trump has done a lot more than just dealing with Russia. He does controversial business stuff with Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan both seeming democracies, but more like nepotcracies/dynasties, as well as that, Trump wants to ban Muslims into the US, of which Azerbaijan is a mainly Muslim country....what a Faux Pas that is!
So far the Azerbaijan government hasn't said too much about that, but then maybe that's because they aren't exactly God's gift to democracy or to their own people either.
I expect too that the Chinese are laughing their proverbials off too, with Trump's ridiculous hypocritical rants about people he is doing business with. As for Hilary, I have stated my own opinion.
For the cancelled meeting with Putin, just to make it clear which you didn't, Putin was the one who cancelled.

Not answering is hardly the appropriate behaviour of a lady..

I'm starting to think that reply of yours was simply a dishonest way for you to avoid answering the question and in the process making me seem like the ignorant one.

So if I am this ignorant and I simply need to think harder about my own statement what is the harm in you pointing it out? I don't get it so if the problem lies with me surely you could point it out? Unless this was just deflection on your part.

And now you went ahead and deleted your signature.. former member now eh? Well I won't stand for this kind of behaviour! I demand an apology right now woman!

Why is this not in the hoax bin? It is total BS.

Goes to show the lengths Hillary supporters are willing to go to.

She actually breaks the law regarding classified information, they accuse Trump of dlubg it when he didn't.

Wow the hypocrisy from the Trump groupies is hysterical.

I don't have a horse in this race and in many ways don't really care (doesn't affect me either way) but i would say that it shows just how messed up and polarised America is these days when Hillary gets pilloried for this but it seems ok for Trump?

That is complete hypocrisy. Ok, Hillary was much larger scale but that doesn't change anything. It shouldn't be one rule for one, a different rule for another. Either it is ok or it isn't - no in betweens. If it isn't ok, then charge them both, even just for fines. It publicly shames and (hopefully) then forces a more constructive campaign rather than endless mud slinging.

You didn't even read through the thread did you? That's how propaganda works. Never mind that there is no classified information discussed by Trump at all. Just read the headline and decide Clinton and Trump did the same thing... pretty pathetic. How about 'Deny Ignorance'? I guess that might be too hard for you

Actually yes i did read the thread (yesterday) and also the acknowledgement from the OP that they weren't sure how accurate it was.

That hasn't stopped anyone else posting or discussing though has it? Including yourself.........

I thought King Fahd Air Base, Eskan village Air Base and King Abdul Aziz Air Base were all known US military installations in Saudi?

Maybe Zap can confirm their decommissioning?

militarybases.com...

exactly...I knew about air bases in Saudi Arabia way back in the 90's.....(of course,I lived there for a bit and also dated a Marine pilot way back when...and recall Desert Storm, (of which my father was a MD and served there....)

and even if it slipped...(which I REALLY don't think people give Trump enough credit....I think he does a LOT of the things he does and says MOSt of the things he says...ON PURPOSE!!!! Plus he is a little, as my daughter called ME once, UNFILTERED.....

peace, ya'll

The fact that it turned out to be incorrect doesn't excuse the hypocrisy from Trump supporters who commented while unaware of such.

You were all ready to change your stance on the subject and do a complete flip-flop. That's about as feeble as the sheep go.

That the thread title turned out to be incorrect doesn't mean you didn't show your true colours.

A Trump supporter using the phrase "Deny Ignorance" is one of the most laughable things I've seen on ATS.

Then your post makes it even more clear that you just want to spread propaganda.
At least that's clear.

Don't lump everyone together into a 'So You were all ready' statement'. It's ignorant.
Anyone with even a modicum of integrity dismisses this non story as simple (and ineffective) propaganda.

As I said - Deny Ignorance. You are currently failing - badly

Whatever dude, hillary's server got hacked.

Maybe hillary should just have someone give her a cassette that self destructs, like Mr. Phelps used to get.

a reply to: UKTruth

Really? Just how pathetic an individual are you? You appear to have some serious issues if that is what you truly believe. And also a wish to simply attack people on discussion boards. I hope your meds help you in the long run.

The revelation of the drone base came shortly after the leaking of a US justice department memo detailing the Obama administration's case for killing any American abroad who is accused of being a "senior, operational leader" of al-Qaeda or its allies.
Lethal force is lawful if they are deemed to pose an "imminent threat" and their capture is not feasible, the memo says.
The threat does not have to be based on intelligence about a specific attack, since such actions are being "continually" planned by al-Qaeda, it adds.
NBC News said it was given to members of the US Senate intelligence and judiciary committees as a summary of a classified memo on the targeted killings of US citizens prepared by the justice department.
The latter memo was written before the drone strike that killed Awlaki.
Under President Obama, the US has expanded its use of drones to kill hundreds of al-Qaeda suspects in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Yemen. It says it is acting in self-defence in accordance with international law.

2013 BBC News article

Seems to me that it was Obama's administration that dropped the ball back according to this 2013 article and leaked classified information. Hmmm.

Sharing this again, since it seems to be getting missed! The article states the leak occurred and was known back in 2011! Gee, who was using a private server at that time?

Edit add: what actually surprises me that no one seems to be connecting this link between Clinton and the department of Justice! It seems really obvious that they were both indicated during the investigation! That is why the the department of Justice would never prosecute her!
