Former US president Donald Trump is accused of discussing "potentially sensitive" details of America’s nuclear submarine program with Australian billionaire Anthony Pratt.
I'm still a fan of when he showed a map to kid Rock and kid Rock literally was like 'should I be seeing this?'
Trump literally turned kid Rock into the voice of reason at one point.

Loose lips sink ships, or something. There were times when people who did that got a cigarette, a blindfold, and a lonely place next to a bullet-ridden wall.
103Trump is ready to leak anything to win browny point with millionaires and billionaires. Would also probably sell he's two sons, but nobody wants them. 'Only he matters', like he once elegantly put.
38Russian navy just fled their main Crimean base of operations. Sinking ships was exactly his goal.

What does it take for this orange ape to finally go down into the darkest hell hole of oblivion? God knows what other highly sensitive information this senile blabbermouth has shared with far more dangerous people. To me it is absolutely unfathomable that this man is still walking around, free as a bird, with millions of people still rooting for him.
53Isn't that soft treason‽
51Did anyone care about nuclear secrets getting sold to the Saudis for 2 billion?
17I did...

Probably not treason, as running his mouth to an Australian national isn't really providing aid to the US's enemies (I don't think we've signed a mutual defense pact with Emus, yet). However, running your mouth and disclosing Classified information, is a crime. Funny how I remember a bunch of people chanting something about locking someone up over mishandling of sensitive government information a few years back. Might be time for a few rounds of "lock him up!"
12Ive only ever heard of high treason
5That is because those 'stick out'

Capitalism has its own false internationalism. There is no treason a rich billionaire can do.

Oh, I guess he plays War Thunder?
18We call this treason
17I’m not even sure that weirdo is a human. I don’t mean Trump.
9This is the best summary I could come up with:
Former US president Donald Trump reportedly discussed "potentially sensitive" details of America's nuclear submarine program with an Australian billionaire.
The American ABC news outlet reported that Mr Trump told Anthony Pratt the supposed number of nuclear warheads on US subs, and how close they could get to a Russian submarine without being detected.
"The Department of Justice should investigate the criminal leaking, instead of perpetrating their baseless witch-hunts while knowing that President Trump did nothing wrong, has always insisted on truth and transparency, and acted in a proper manner, according to the law," the spokesman said.
He was praised by Donald Trump as "the most successful man in Australia" during a visit to a Pratt Industries plant in Ohio in 2019.
The AUKUS deal, under which Australia will obtain nuclear-powered — but not nuclear-armed subs — was announced by Mr Trump's successor Joe Biden about five months later.
But Shadow Foreign Minister Simon Birmingham said Mr Trump would not have been aware of the discussions taking place behind the scenes.
The original article contains 592 words, the summary contains 169 words. Saved 71%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
9As bad as this sounds, there's no way the information trump shared is anywhere close to correct. Everything's a big fish to him. How close can a US sub get to a Russian sub?
Lots of people are saying, you know, believe me that our beautiful perfect subs can, Subway is the greatest by the way. Not as good as McDonald's but pretty good, our subs can grab the Russian subs by the shaft and they don't even notice. Now we wouldn't be able to do that if Obama had his way.
6That guy looks like if Joseph Teller was doing the Bilbo hhhrrrahhhh
5These two are a pair for apocalypse. Great.
3Lol
trump is going to win the election, isn't he
2There's a first for everything.

So the original story on ABC cited "unnamed sources", then other media outlets cited the ABC story.
Have you figured out how the propaganda machine works?
