Any Researchers here know what the former Texas Rep/DNI Ratcliff has been up to since 2021?

Quick skim through Wiki doesn't seem to indicate what his present "occupation" is.

But he was the DNI in the last year of the psycho freak's "term of office".

Before then, he was one of the chief Conspiracy Theorists in Congress promoting all manner of bs on Hillary Clinton, and FBI officials who were famously villified and wrongly accused of misdeeds, eventually fired by the former "guy" installed in the Oval Office.

When Trump appointed Ratcliff to replace Dan Coates as the Director of National Intelligence, Senator Wyden and along with other Democratic Senators publically referred to this appointment as an extremely inappropriate choice for any position related to National Securtiy. Although he did sit on the House Intelligence and Homeland Security Committees, the few times I had watched public hearings with Ratcliff on the dias, I immediately was alarmed he had access to anything relaed to National Security.

Here is an excerpt of Senator Wyden's remarks on that appointment reported on the Daily Beast: Link

The sum total of his qualifications appears to be his record of promoting Donald Trumps’s conspiracy theories about the investigation into Russian interference and calling for prosecution of Trump’s political enemies,” Wyden said in a statement of soon-to-be DNI Rep. John Ratcliffe.

“Furthermore, he has endorsed widespread government surveillance and shown little concern for Americans’ rights, except for those of Donald Trump and his close associate,” said Wyden. “Confirming this endorsement would amount to politicize our intelligence agencies.” Wyden added that “anything less” than the least objective choice risks American lives.

I'm bringing attention to Ratcliff in the context of the current news on the theft and mishandling of recovered stolent documents stolen at Maralago.

It's quite likely the DOJ/FBI is or has been investigating any potential links with him. I think we shouldn't be surprised if his name is associated with this treasonous business surfaces at some point.

I'm just wondering if he's been questioned yet, and what, if anything has resulted from a potential interview with the DOJ.

1. Ratcliff

He was a member of the House, not a Senator.

2. Corrected, thank you.

3. Think he was a House Rep...

But his name has not been mentioned in all of this yet. He's probably a target like Meadows and a few others. I wonder if he quietly met with the J6 cmte. and has given a ;ot of info up already. I saw Meadows claiming to be still holding his title with tfg as remaining president at least six months after Biden took office.

Needs to be looked into, I suspect he is, we just aren't hearing about it.

6. Quite possibly... it's interesting to read now, how even Republican pols were "concerned"

about Ratcliff's appointment to DNI. Worried he might "politicize" the office. Which of course is exactly what he did.

Media reported he had an unusually "thin" resume for that position.

I feel like he has his hand on the stolen/missing classified docs.

9. I'm pretty suree...

That he's toupe-deep in it.

10. toupe thing, didn't realize it before.

but he's a snake, and now given his cyber consulting work, well I don't think it's too much of a stretch to intuit he's likely traded mightily from all he's had his eyes and hands on during his tenure with his master.

4. Being the rat in Ratcliff...

he'd never survive in jail.

7. lol!

I dunno. I have no reason to believe his loyalty to trump is'nt as strong now as it was then.

But more significantly, I also can see him exploiting TS intel for his personal financial gain/interests.

For his part, John Ratcliffe now earns a living by consulting for companies in the cyber security, artificial intelligence and energy sectors, according to his website.

8. Perfect position to be in with the Intel he acquired...

remarkable that anyone holding that position can just go trotting off with the goods to sell.

openly. apparently legally.
