Breaking: Ali Velshi Holds up the Official White House Announcement From the President

"I have determined that it is no longer in the national interest for the following individuals to access classified information:
Antony Blinken
Jacob Sullivan
Lisa Monaco
Mark Zaid
Norman Eisen
Letitia James,
Alvin Bragg
Andrew Weissmann
Hillary Clinton
Elizabeth Cheney
Kamala Harris
Adam Kinzinger
Fiona Hill
Alexander Vindman
Joseph R. Biden, Jr., and any other member of Joseph R. Biden Jr.'s family."

Velshi showed the White House document but as of this posting it's not on whitehouse.gov.

This might be either some delay by the White House digital team, or some trick by the felon to claim that MSNBC is misinforming its audience, as a pretext to attack & threaten MSNBC.

For me to be given a breathalyzer test. Because it may expose us to being the perpetrators of fraud, waste, abuse and the destruction of everything good about who we are.

Donald Trump: it is no longer in the national interest to preserve the evidence.

Lloyd Austin, and all fired Joint Chiefs and generals. They can still get military intelligence from our former Five Eyes, and 31 NATO members know that.

This is about eeping them from informing and/or influencing the rest of the oligarchs.

They're still going to get intel, regardless, from trusted people of the Five Eyes (now the Four Eyes), especially Lloyd Austin and the recently fired US military commanders.

Not shocking, but also shocking. 🤬

I don't know if anybody's noticed that but this week things have gotten a lot worse and more scary I am heartened by the continued rallies and our protesters in the streets however I'm also afraid for many of us

It will probably get worse, but watch for things that could be used for impeachment or eventually, criminal charges. They are digging a hole for themselves. And the resistance is getting started.

Because he's pissed off that someone leaked the details on his ability to join a classified briefing at the pentagon on China without proper vetting.

This is my belief about what motivator is at least partiality responsible for this action by President Psychopath.

Pretty generic statements there.

Who's going to start looking for the ancestorial link that shows a bunch of Trump world people who are somehow related to Biden?

It is no longer in the national interest for a deranged man, let alone two of them, to have access to classified material, nuclear codes, Vladimir Putin’s speed dial number, or the Doordash number that services the McDonald’s franchise closest to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., NW, in Washington, DC.

So, good. Who out there is going to look out for the national interest, hmmm? Emmanuel Macron?
