U.S. intelligence officials are planning to brief Donald Trump on national security matters if he secures the GOP nomination this summer — despite concerns about his handling of classified information.

The decision would be in keeping with a tradition that dates back to 1952, but it would mark the first time an administration has volunteered to share classified information with a candidate who is facing criminal charges related to the mishandling of classified documents.

The Biden administration intends to share intelligence with the former president no matter the outcome of his trial in Florida, according to a senior intelligence official and a second person with knowledge of internal conversations. They, like some others interviewed, were granted anonymity to discuss sensitive internal deliberations.

The sit-down is not legally required, but for the last 72 years, incumbent administrations have tapped the spy agencies to read in the candidates of both major political parties on some of the most pressing threats to the country. While often this is just one meeting, sometimes candidates receive several briefings.

The briefings, which are managed by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and approved by the White House, normally take place after the national conventions in late summer.

Sure, it seems dumb on its face.  But, knowing what we know of Dotard's IQ and attention span, this will likely be the kind of briefing he gets on Ukraine, for example:

....accompanied by a senior official making "BOOM!" and "BOOSH!" noises for effect.

I said on this very board that the way they reacted after 2020 was like a guy who bet big on a fight he thought was fixed and was totally stunned and angry he lost. Also, since every accusation is a confession I assume the specific voting machines they were complaining about are the same ones they hacked in 2016 to add/delete or change votes. I think they ran the same play in 2020 but didn't account for the larger turnout.

I realize this lumps me into conspiracy whacko territory but i have never let go of the notion that something fucky was done to get him in the first time. I then apply that hypothesis to all of his actions before and since the 2020 election regarding "fraud." It was and still is plain as day to me that it was rigged the first time, people woke up, and then they couldn't get away with what worked the first time. He expected to win, and not because he should have. That's why he threw such a fit. I may never see this proven, but it'll take a lot to convince me otherwise. *takes off tinfoil hat*

I absolutely think (and it has been proven) that the Russians helped him win, but I still think even HE didn't think it would actually work.  That picture of him on election night when it became apparent he would win says it all.  Everyone in the room celebrating except him just sitting there with a "holy shit, now what do I do?" look on his face.

I know the SOTU thread is going nuts right now, so I didn’t want this to get lost. I was letting wife watch her tv shows while I followed SOTU here, but when she was done I flipped to the speech. She’s voted D since 2004. Her reaction, angrily, was he’s too old. She’ll obviously vote for him again, but I just don’t understand this anger.
 

Yes, he’s old. I told her if he wins, in 2028 we’ll probably get Newsom or Mayor Pete or Whitmer. She immediately bristled at Newsom because “you can’t put up someone from California!” (what up Reagan). But just wtf is going on?  Why are Dems so afraid?

Interesting article in The Atlantic that Dems are lukewarm about Biden and his age because he promised to be a bridge to younger candidates.

However, I don't find that very fair - Biden would have 100% stepped aside IF AND ONLY IF Trump was not going to the 2024 GOP nominee.  It was pretty much circumstances that Biden felt he had to run again to stop Trump, considering all the 2023 polling showed Trump was going to win the GOP primary pretty easily. 

I think by November, it will be a pretty easy thing to knock back with Dems - it's democracy or Trump.  Biden stepping aside pretty much would have guaranteed Trump winning.

I'm surprised that Trump didn't deliver the GOP response to the SOTU last night. I know it's the standard that a member of Congress deliver it, but what does that matter. And I don't believe for a second that the networks or cable channels wouldn't have carried Trump's response.

Big miss by Trump to let someone else go after Biden. If I was Biden, I would call out Trump in being afraid to take policy for 5 minutes. As well as telling Trump he made a mistake. Trump will take the bait.

No Labels, a Centrist Group, Moves Toward a Third-Party Presidential Bid
The group said it had voted to nominate a ticket, but did not announce which candidate might run on its ballot line. Democrats have worried that such a bid could siphon support from President Biden.

The centrist group No Labels said on Friday that it would move forward with plans to nominate a presidential ticket, a move that, if it comes to fruition, would add another complicating factor to the November election.

Leaders of the group announced the plan after an online meeting of its members. The group said it had 800 delegates who voted “near unanimously” to nominate a ticket. No Labels has yet to announce a candidate who might run on its ballot line, however, and several of the best-known politicians it has courted have ruled out a presidential run on a third-party ticket.

“Even though we met virtually, their emotion and desire to bring this divided nation back together came right through the screen,” said Mike Rawlings, No Labels’s national convention chair.

The meeting came at a pivotal moment for No Labels. As state deadlines approach for getting on the ballot for the November election, the group had to move quickly to decide whether to begin a third-party bid, and name its ticket.

No Labels’s evolution from a bipartisan, think tank-like organization to a would-be third party, with aspirations of a presidential candidacy, has alarmed many Democrats, who worry that the group could pull critical votes away from President Biden in battleground states.

“No Labels has put their dangerous, reckless thought experiment ahead of the rights and freedoms of millions of Americans and the future of our democracy,” said Rahna Epting, the executive director of MoveOn, the liberal activist group. “Any candidates who join the No Labels presidential ticket will be complicit in making it easier for Donald Trump and MAGA extremists to win a second term in the White House.”

No Labels’s operations have been cloaked in secrecy. The national group is technically not a political party but a nonprofit social welfare organization, so it does not have to disclose its donors or provide details about its activities.

Last year, its leaders were trying to raise $70 million for ballot access efforts. At the time, they said they would hold a national convention in Dallas in April, but that plan has since been jettisoned. The group’s delegates expect to vote on a ticket selected by the group’s leaders, people involved with the group have said.

Even the means by which it would pick a ticket are unclear. The group has said it has 800 “delegates” in all 50 states who would play some role in selecting the candidates, but their names have never been disclosed, and the number could not be independently verified.

No Labels leaders have said they will nominate a ticket if Mr. Biden and former President Donald J. Trump are the main parties’ nominees, as is now all but certain. The group’s leaders have said that their so-called “unity ticket” would have a Republican presidential candidate and a Democratic running mate.

But the group is running low on potential contenders.

As recently as January, the group was still courting or considering prominent current and former politicians including Jon Huntsman Jr., the Republican former governor of Utah; Larry Hogan, the Republican former governor of Maryland; and Senator Joe Manchin III, the conservative West Virginia Democrat, who has said he will not seek re-election.

In February, Mr. Hogan announced that he would run for Maryland’s open Senate seat. A week later, Mr. Manchin ruled out running for president. “I will not be seeking a third-party run,” he said.

Another problem for No Labels: As of January, the group was on the ballot in just 14 states, although it said it was “active” — gathering signatures and filing for ballot access — in more than a dozen others.

The Biden White House has no doubt acknowledged this some time ago, but the hard cold truth is there is no longer a two party system or a loyal opposition. There is the Democratic Party dueling with a single individual - Donald Trump.

[cactusflinthead 27628]

Trump was live-posting his "responses" during Biden's speech last night. There were dozens and dozens of them minutes apart. When I was going through them this afternoon, I noticed that one post had far more engagement than any other - especially in the replies which were up to 4,380. That is a massive number of replies on Truth Social for a Trump tweet. When I read the replies, every single one was attacking Trump for the post, and every single one was a Trump supporter. 

Here is a representative sample ...

Look at the exit polling in most of these primary states so far.  With the exception of probably South Carolina, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Alabama lots of republican voters ( nearly 50% or more) said they were “not part of” the MAGA movement.
