Head of Finnish mil intel reacts to Trump denying Russian ties: "Lord, give me patience, AND NOW!"

Last edited Sun Jan 15, 2017, 08:35 PM - Edit history (1)

Found this via John Schindler, a security expert who was on The Last Word last week, and who's been tweeting some of the most interesting stuff on Trump, Russia, and the intel community.

And this morning he retweeted and translated the reaction of Finland's chief of military intelligence to this tweet from Trump denying any ties to Russia or Russian leverage over him:

Luoja, anna minulle kärsivällisyyttä, JA HETI!


I checked Google Translate and got "My God, give me patience, AND NOW!" as the translation, very close to Schindler's:

AHEM ===> "Lord, give me patience, AND NOW!" Tweeter is the 2-star chief of Finnish MI. Welcome to 2017.

No big. It's not like Finnish intelligence knows anything about Russia.
