    Never chaired a House committee ever when the House was in control. No. 2 guy (ceremonial job) at the DNC, a position he will soon vacate.
    Now compare Ellison to the number of domestic abusers, racists and grifters in the Trumpist party.

    Do you think Trump was disappointed the first time he went to the Situation Room and didn't see this guy?

    People keep claiming it's illegal to use a recording device in a SCIF but I've yet to see that backed up with a federal statute.

    It's absolutely considered to be a risk to bring an electronic device in because they could be bugged or otherwise compromised compromised. But I haven't seen evidence that it's against federal law, unless I'm missing something.

    Also, for any illegal wiretap claims, D.C. is a one party consent region. Omarosa can legally record any conversation she materially takes part in.

    Edit: To be clear, it's incredibly dangerous to have a recording device in a SCIF. Stupid. Against protocol. If she were an employee, she'd probably be fired. But not illegal if it didn't record classified info. Plus, Kelly already fired her. lso, in a normal administration, Kelly would be reprimanded for holding a personnel meeting in the situation room.

    I promise you: It is not permitted to bring a recording device into a SCIF.

    Full stop.

    I find it entirely possible that either Omarosa is lying about being fired in the SCIF or that she never learned the difference between it and Kelly's own private office.

    So, now Hollywood wouldn't give jobs to "bad" people? I think you must have changed your view on Hollywood?

    He gave you examples. Tom Arnold is another one that says the tapes exist and knows what is on them. (ye I trust Tom Arnold --with my life--over trump)
