(67,761 posts)And they will even go so far as to end this if necessary. That sort of thing is part of what they do. And we will never know it.
Yes, we all rail against the secretive services of our country but the reality is, they do what they need to do to keep us safe and strong. Not micromanage. But worry about the big stuff.
I truly believe that leak of the report by the MI6 guy, Steele, was a shot across the corpulent orangutan's bow.

(32,886 posts)similarly dissed when he attacked all of US Intel several times, to leak very embarrassing things about him on a regular basis, and he would have no real way to find out who did it.
THAT is what I expect to see.

(268,701 posts)the system is way stronger than one narcissistic lunatic - which is not to say that they are acting on our behalf but I'd take this system over Droper Don the Cons which is one man rule - only I can fix it.
Reality tells me that he destroys everything and everyone he touches.

(865 posts)Not meaning to hound you all! Just want to track down the name. So am looking up possibilities and then sharing them, just in case one of them rings a bell (or has image, if find one, that may look like person on msnbc this morning).
R. Evan Hineman is a former CIA deputy director.
Thanks.

(645 posts)No CIA operative worth his salt is going to clap and laugh like that in front of a wall with their honored dead on it. It would be similar to Trump standing in front of the tomb of the unknown soldier and giving a campaign speech. As a retired Soldier myself I would be furious.

I am a big fan of Malcolm Nance. Like Nance, Glenn is another sane straight shooter. I loved it when he said comrade trump's statement was stupid. Like most correct thinking Americans, I view anything trump says as stupid or a lie.
