#1 It is likely Senator Lee and the rest received a collateral level briefing, a briefing with no special access caveats. Simply having a TS/SCI and sitting in a SCIF doesn't cut it.

Please, please spare us the notion that Rep. Ilhan Omar and others of a like mind, need to be 'read-on' to special access programs.

Get a fok'n grip senator.

“Absolutely, Positively False” – Senator Lankford DESTROYS Turncoat Sen. Mike Lee on Bogus Meltdown following Today’s Iran Briefing

A senator from LSD Utah, who's a grandstanding demagogue? Where have I heard that before?

Also famous for putting foreign workers before US workers.

#4 Lee and Rand Paul look stupid going all over the map. Paul went from infuriated at the Soliemani strike to thrilled at Trump not escalating to moping about this classified briefing. At step two I was starting to like him again, he burned that in only a few hours.

#6 #1 - So, IOW, they're such a bunch of clowns that they cannot be trusted with the good stuff and must settle for the kind of information the rest of us can get from CBS?
