The left continues to lose its collective mind over President Trump’s decision to revoke John Brennan’s security clearance. Yesterday, we noted Andrea Mitchell suggesting that Trump’s action could constitute “obstruction of justice.”
Today, Washington Post editor/columnist Eugene Robinson, on Morning Joe, took things an absurd step further, saying Trump’s move was grounds for impeachment:
“This is just a blatant abuse of power. I mean, I don’t know what else you can call it. And really should be one of the eventual articles of impeachment.”

Ahh...the outrage du jour.
Everyday it’s something new in hopes that something will stick.
This one doesn’t even pass the snort test.
Well said.
Of course, when it comes to snorting, the MSM . . .
#1 “abuse of power” is not an impeachable offense.
#2 The President has WIDE LATITUDE on the exercise of his Constitutionally-vested authority.
#3 These TDS people are idiots.
This guy is an insult. Well, an obvious mouthpiece not interested in facts. How exactly, is this obstruction? What was he doing that required a clearance? What exactly is the impeachable offense here? Wait, he shouldn’t bother wasting his time putting together more lies and spin. There is no good answer for those questions, he is simply making anti Trump background noise. Like elevator music, it isn’t really meant to be listened to, merely to set a tone.
“He is simply making anti-Trump background noise. Like elevator music, it isn’t really meant to be listened to, merely to set a tone.”
Well said!
Are we finally at the point of “If everything’s an outrage, then nothing is”?
If CNN and Morning Joe disappeared tomorrow, more than half of the hilarious stuff on this site would be gone.
“This is just a blatant abuse of power?
And that is just slanderous,unadulterated and plain unabridged “BS” !
You’re right. I’d have to seek out other sources of comedy gold. ;-)
“Ahh...the outrage du jour.”
Excellent image. When everything is an outrage, nothing is an outrage. I can’t imagine the anti-Trumper’s keeping up the energy level even as far as the November elections. Exhaustion will set in.
If it had been Obama who pulled Brennan’s clearance Eugene Robinson would hail that as “...a very astute move by a brilliant statesman.”
IOW,a junior Army officer who's assigned to a Personnel Command very probably wouldn't be allowed access to the classified schematic drawings of the latest of out nuclear submarines...because he has no "need to know".
LOL
Effing crazy.
If you no longer work for any Federal Agency, WHY THE EFF SHOULD YOU HAVE A CLEARANCE?
Mine only remained for about a half-year after I left the CDC. I'd have to re-apply for mine. Scowly McScowlFace has been out of the government for much more than a year.
Also they wanted Nixon impeached in his first term long before Watergate.
Stalinists lie. Always
Even they don’t believe their own BS
These clowns don’t know what a impeachable offense is. Brennan is out of government, and has no need for a clearance. If anything needs to be done, Brennan needs to be prosecuted for leaking government information to the press and our enemies.
Maxine Waters: “Will James Clapner be next in Trump’s sights?”
“IMPEACH 45!”
