Grounds for impeachment are political (bullshit). They're whatever Congress says they are. Basically, Congress is supposed to act as a check on the executive when they fuck up badly.GrundleStiltzkin said:

If Hillary is any indication of how this works, the charges won't stick. Next.
the President can declassify any document. Sounds like he did just that last week, albeit inadvertently.
Sounds like he was pretty foolish and we are unlikely to have a great intelligence-sharing relationship in the future with whatever country and whatever source gave us that intel on ISIL, though.
Republicans will never impeach.

But, the Constitution sez "treason, bribery, and high crimes and misdemeanors."
A decent case can be made for at least two of those four, if not all four. -
I recall buying a pitcher and drinking one glass of beer.
“The White House has got to do something soon to bring itself under control and in order,” Senator Bob Corker, Republican of Tennessee and the chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, told reporters, adding, “It’s got to happen.”
“Obviously they’re in a downward spiral right now and they’ve got to figure out a way to come to grips with all that’s happening,” Mr. Corker said.
Asked about the larger effect of the disclosure, Mr. Corker said, “To compromise a source is something that you just don’t do, and that’s why we keep the information that we get from intelligence sources so close as to prevent that from happening.”
Out of his element, in over his head. -

Some random blogger is your source.HoustonHusky said: -
Secy of State Tillerson said it happened, but that Trump did not reveal "sources and methods."
Of course WaPo and Buzzfeed say that Trump gave out the city in Syria where the source is located, which would tantamount to giving out the source, when talking to the Russians.
If only there was a tape recorder in the White House that could resolve this conundrum!
According to Sean Spicer, the existence of such equipment can be neither "confirmed or denied." -
Regardless if this is accurate or not, it just goes to show that "the boy who cried wolf" killed the left.HoustonHusky said:
CNN and MSNBC has lost all credibility with their reporting. The New York Times and Washington Post aren't far behind. The emotions are taking over. -

I can't read the WaPo story anymore, because fucking paywall. But I thought they were the ones who talked to some spooks (no racist) who said that Trump gave up the location of the source.TierbsHsotBoobs said:
