CBS News is reporting President Donald Trump shouted at CIA Director Mike Pompeo after hearing news stories that the intelligence community is withholding information from him.

According to previous reports, intelligence operatives were said to be holding back the information because they believe any information given to Trump will find its way to Russia.

“Our Intelligence Community is so worried by the unprecedented problems of the Trump administration — not only do senior officials possess troubling ties to the Kremlin, there are nagging questions about basic competence regarding Team Trump — that it is beginning to withhold intelligence from a White House which our spies do not trust,” wrote former analyst for the National Security Agency Jack R. Schindler.

The Director of National Intelligence flatly denied this was happening and Pompeo released a strongly worded statement saying the same.

1. "Putin wants those reports Mike!" nt

[tenorly]

2. Ohhhhhh boy.

The CIA is really going to enjoy dispensing the payback.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

3. "Well tuned machinery" is shrieking "Give me some oil! Lubrication!" . . . . nt

[bucolic_frolic]

4. Mr. Trump is being fed #FakeNews?

[mitch96]

5. Easy for the intel community to find out

Just feed tRump some bogus "don't tell anyone" intel and see it it shows up on our eavesdropping of the soviets...
Hell, maybe that's how they found out.
Loose lips sink ships and all that jazz..

[Lochloosa]

7. Maybe they did

[Charles Bukowski]

26. That's exactly what I was thinking.

[Mr.Bill]

9. If they weren't doing that at his first

intelligence briefing last fall, then they weren't doing their job very well.

Actually I could see them doing that with any candidate/president elect.

[cstanleytech]

10. Imagine feeding him intel that the US has planted 30 nuclear devices in moscow back in the early to

late 90s would be a good one to test it with because if there is a leak then you should see sudden surge of troops looking for the bogus devices.

[Skittles]

16. HELLO

no doubt they have already done that

[DK504]

19. Sweet.

Start the OSS style disinformation now and see where it leads.

[mitch96]

38. Start the OSS style disinformation

Actually the US Navy used this same ploy against the Japanese Navy on the attack of Midway during WW 2. The US Navy knew the Japanese Navy was going to "AF" but did not know where "AF" was. They had a good idea it was Midway but could not prove it.. So using a scientific wild ass guess (SWAG) they sent a bogus radio signal from Midway that the water purification plant broke down. The Japanese Navy intercepted the message and passed it on to Admiral Yamato's fleet heading to Midway that the water purification plant was down and bring one along...
The US Navy set up a trap and the rest is history...
I hope history repeats it's self again with this asshole...
History lesson over

36. Think that already happened.

Drumpf talks to Putin with tape turned off, the next day Pootie kills a rival. Did drumpf give him information that made this happen? Coincidence or not? it was after that when the news came of intelligence community hiding facts - for a very good reason I'd bet!

[BumRushDaShow]

6. I thought all the news stories were "fake" (except Faux and Breitfart)

[Mr.Bill]

8. Yes, Donny, information is being witheld from you.

It's the information that is being withheld from our intelligence agencies by our own allies because they don't want it getting to the Russians through you.

[Marie Marie]

11. Does he even understand this is the F'ing CIA he is messing with?

They have more dirty tricks up their sleeves than Trump could ever dream up. Payback is going to be a bitch.

[mitch96]

37. the F'ing CIA he is messing with?

And with all intelligence agency's, they are very adept at lying... It's part of their tool kit.. So when they say "mr prez we would never leak info to take you down because you disrespected us" is prolly a lie...
Like you said.. payback is a bitch..

[adigal]

12. I just don't understand this...why pick fights with the IC and media, unless delegitimizing them?

Ah. Never mind.

[wordpix]

39. deligitimizing is the answer---IC & media aren't doing what DonCon wants so

he's trying to make them "Fake News" so his minions won't believe THEM, and will believe the OrangeCon so-called pres

[cstanleytech]

13. The Repugnants are making a huge mistake by letting Trump attack the varies agencies like this as

odds are they probably have a shit ton of dirt on the varies Repugnants and have been sitting on it but they might decide to start using it if the Repugnants don't get Trump to STFU.

[milestogo]

33. They have no control over him.

Nobody tells him what to do. If he were about to walk off the edge of a cliff and 10000 people yelled "stop" he would keep going.

[cstanleytech]

35. No, they have plenty of power to stop him they are choosing instead to support him

by eagerly voting yes enmass to most of his cabinet choices.

[wordpix]

40. my hypothesis is GOP leadership in on Russian hacking, election rigging

think about it: Donnie was going down after the nomination. Clearly he was losing. Then in rides Comey with his story about HRC new emails found on Weiner's laptop. GOP congresspeople may have provided help.

I wouldn't doubt it if Turtle, Hatch, Chaffetz et. al helped Russia with hacking. Certainly would explain why these R traitors won't even slap Donnie's hand for his campaign ppl talking to Russia for a year during campaign.

[Equinox Moon]

14. First step, attend an intelligence briefing!

[Brogrizzly]

15. Nah, not enough maps.

[Equinox Moon]

17. So we hear.

[milestogo]

34. The best books are all pictures.

They should make a Trump doll that says "reading is hard".

[demtenjeep]

18. CIA pompous ass is as crazy as blotus

when he was running for congress he would show up to all the small town holidays.

One 4th of July parade my sister and I were standing side by side.

I had on a white T-shirt that said I only sleep with Democrats in red and blue

he walked over and shook my sister's hand and physically walked around me and never said a word

[lame54]

20. So, now he believes the fake news...

I can't keep up

[LudwigPastorius]

21. I thought Trump was "like a smart person" who doesn't need intelligence briefings.

Go back to tweeting about your press coverage you giant, spray-tanned fart balloon.

[truthisfreedom]

22. When do we start calling this normal? Now?

When do we get to look back and shake our heads?

[sarcasmo]

23. I sense a Tiger Blood meltdown by spring.

[elmac]

24. oh nooooooooooooooo Mr President

that must be one of those fake news thingys

[wordpix]

41. I suggested to my resist group we have a pool for date Trump is impeached

maybe we should start one here.

[moonscape]

25. "It's not being withheld President Trump, if you

look down at the bottom of the page, right after the picture of the airplane and that colorful bar graph with the large print, it's right there."

[NastyRiffraff]

27. What the hell's the difference?

He doesn't bother reading intel reports anyway, by his own admission. Apparently they bore him.

[no_hypocrisy]

28. Pompeo should just give Trump "fake reports" to give to Putin.

[realist_philus]

29. Trump Takes on Intel Agencies . . .

He's in for a drawn out war. He says that he "doesn't have to hear the same thing every day" in regards to intel briefings. He's called for his big whig finance buddy to investigate the intelligence agencies. Trump wants to shape the intel agencies into what Trump thinks an intel agency should be. It's not going to work.

[Vinca]

30. The intel agencies should feed him fake shit and see where it lands.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

31. I imagine Putin shouted at Trump. Shit rolls downhill.

[Madam45for2923]

32. ooooh shouting! Trump so scary! or is it scared?
