Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Sounds like treason to me.
When's someone going to have the balls to charge him with it, and then sentence him to death for it?
Treason is very narrowly defined in the Constitution and Trump will almost certainly never be charged with it.
As Australia is not a military enemy of the US, treason is absolutely off the table here.
This is, however, definitely a felony. Maybe he can hit an even 100.
He didn't discuss it with Australia, he discussed with an Australian.
If Trump discussed this with Rupert Murdoch would you make the same argument?
I always wondered what was really going on at LIV, the golf tournament held at a Trump course funded by the PIF otherwise known as Saudi royalty
It's not treason, it's espionage, and it still can carry a very lengthy solitary stay in leavenworth.
So, it's treason, then
It was right there, dude.
Is this Australian businessman a middleman for an enemy of the US? If not, it likely doesn't meet the standard for treason, but there are other things it should qualify as.
Sign me up, I ain't scarred. Put it on my headstone when I go. Make me a judge!!
