Trump senior staff who signed non-disclosure agreements may have broken the law

[J.E.D]

You trotted out stupid when you liked him just because he was half black

And you double down on the retardation that is your train of thought.

I voted for him because he was a good candidate and had a good first term.

Why did you vote for McCain (who you no doubt now call a RINO or worse) and the Mormon Robot?

You voted for him because you were a star struck groupie programmed by all the jesus shots of the guy on TV. Never mind the fact he went after jurnalist who printed shit he diddnt like, yet Trump is some how shitting down free speech for whining about leaks? Na, stupid points to you. Along with some dishonest as well.

You’re but-but-but-Obama-ing the shit out of this thread which is about Trump, so....all signs point to yes.

You are a sheep through and through. You need to go and see some other threads where I dog like right on Trump. I diddnt even vote for Trump, but I wish I did, not because of any policy, but because he was NOT Hillary. You and your ilk are nothing but territorial tribal mother fucker. If you had one brain cell you would look back as a whole at how the government has gone after journalist from Token Negro, all the way back. I did point out though, how as of yet the Donald has not threatened to toss any news people in the clink. Not to my knowlage anyway. If he had I post it right up here for all to see.

A Governor in Georgia demanded resignation letters from everyone he appointed, before they were appointed. His theory was that he had hired the people, and he would let them go just as soon as they were no longer serving him. His theory was the people choose him, so he worked for them. The people he appointed worked for him, and answered to him. If they ever did something he did not like, he would just open his drawer and “accept” their resignation. There wouldn’t be any arguments, or debates, or any drama. It would be over in a minute.

Would you all feel better if Trump had followed the example of Zell Miller?

Since the revelation that President Trump (or someone acting on his behalf) compelled senior staff to sign non-disclosure agreements — in essence, preventing them from speaking about their White House service — much of the focus, and rightly so, has been on the improper presidential attempt to stomp on government employees’ First Amendment rights and attempt to prevent employees from speaking to congressional oversight committees (i.e., a violation of the separation of powers). Former White House ethics counsel Norman Eisen explains, “The courts have long recognized that apart from classified information, government employees have a First Amendment right to speak.” He explains, “No president has attempted before to secure the kind of sweeping hush agreements that are alleged here because they are contrary to that principle.”

There are other issues at play, including one several Right Turn readers have asked: Did these employees, by giving something of value to Trump, in essence illegally “pay” for their government jobs? Eisen thinks that there are plenty of problems aside from the First Amendment one. “The NDAs as described in the press also appear to run afoul of many other laws ranging from those protecting whistleblowers to ones forbidding officials from demanding anything of value in exchange for government jobs,” he says.

If candidates for administration jobs wrote out a $1,000 check to Trump to get hired, few would doubt that is anything but a bribe. Likewise, if Trump demanded $1,000 to hire someone, we’d all agree that amounted to soliciting a bribe. So, is the exchange of an NDA — something plainly of value to Trump — somehow different?

interesting argument, but the main issue is the idea that these people work for trump.

they work for us, and i can't believe that every republican is so consumed with hatred of clinton and obama that they're willing to have this poltroon be their legacy.

the author is a conservative, btw.

Barry O threatened to jail journalists just because. NDE is reasonable.

Nope, not true. But you fell for that easily, didn't you?

English please.

Another butt hurt loser thread! Lol!

are you loving this shit show? Every single day is either a firing, a scandal, a twitter rant, a porn star, someone quitting, someone spending our money to live large, lies and fabrications. I'm puzzled to what you cheering this administration for? I suggest you go overseas and see how laughing stock america it became, it's embarrassing to say the least.

Yes, the left starts one silly thread after one silly thread after another. We have a serial bomber, another winter storm pounding the east coast, evacuations on the west coast and the left is more worried about this? Lol!

This level of arrogance, authoritarianism, and contempt for the Frist Amendment by this ‘administration’ should come as no surprise.

Obama threatened to toss journalists in jail. Must be that Kenyan dictator blood. Or one of them dreams of his father? You are such a little sheep.

CNN's Tapper: Obama has used Espionage Act more than all previous administrations


"The Obama administration has used the Espionage Act to go after whistleblowers who leaked to journalists ... more than all previous administrations combined."
— Jake Tapper on Thursday, January 2nd, 2014 in a broadcast of CNN's "The Lead with Jake Tapper"

There is no but. If you are honest, you have to recognize that all Trump has done is cry about it. Token Negro tossed folks in Jail. Y’all are good with that?

What is so freakin funny the left for eight years trotted our Bush did it towns they still blame Reagan after 30 years.

it's always amusing that when one points out trump's actions, the right's answer is but, obama

if you guys hate him so much, why did you elect a guy who does the same things and worse?

don't bother, it's rhetorical

Non-disclosure agreements in the WH are ridiculous, and probably illegal and unenforceable. As was pointed out, Donald Trump doesn't employ WH workers, the US does.

Bush put Judith Miller in jail, and you whine, dishonestly, that an Obama threat was "just because".
