Rethugs have no respect for âsmartâ people or their agencies
Going to be interesting to see what shakes out at CIA with Pompeo going to State now that Rex is out. Wonder how much longer we can expect such unanimity among the intel community once Trump gets some other stoolie in there.
âWe will review the HPSCI report findingsâ
âŚfor evidence that Trump helped write them.
Russia is winning the war and we arenât even fighting. Theyâve no clue.
Just got alert from WP that Tillerson is out â Pomeo is in
The Dems are fighting. The GOP is obstructing.
Rearranging the chairs on the deck of the Titanic! Ooga, ooga, dive, dive!
At least not while they are in elected office, it seems. This standing firm is from previously reliable (for the party) republican Dan Coats, suggesting that it is possible to stop playing pure partisan.
Never thought I would say something remotely nice about my former senator. But - good job, Dir. Coats.
More chaos.
In other news, DNI Director, Dan Coats, will soon be replaced by former Rep Devin Nunes
ââŚand we know who is trying to undercut what we do her (we also have things we know about them and long memories).â
How âbraveâ of you DanâŚit looks like all your other cronies are more than willing to let the Russians inâŚwhy should they do ANYTHING or âconcludeâ actual FACTS when they can just blame others and keep their day jobs. We used to be better than this.
I see this as a stronger statement than it might look. More like Oliver Cromwellâs âI beseech you, in the bowels of Christ, think it possible you may be mistaken.â
Muellerâs final report is going to make their failure to pursue this look like the act of an accomplice.
I hope it comes back to haunt them in a tangible way.
Yeah, I was expecting Nunes to wind up at State or the CIA. 
I think the push back from the media and the Dems have been good and Iâm encouraged to see this statement. I think Nunes took it too far when he even challenged the IC assessment. That felt like the hand of a very defensive Vladimir Putin pushing a certain propaganda angle. Vlad is a prickly sort who doesnât like being called out. Theresa May and the USIC calling him out hurt his pride and make him feel insecure. There are many within Russia who do have a healthy respect for the balance of power and for maintaining international stability. They arenât all aligned with Putin. Getting exposed like this may stimulate some resistance within Russia, as Navalny has been especially daring and brave. I hope that dude has a chemical detection kit that he uses before every meal/drink.
Under appreciated national hero Devin Nunes? Nah, heâs holding out for Lavrenti Beriaâs old job.
A report from Nunesâ HPSCI isnât worth even 20 Kobach reports on voter fraud.
