John Ratcliffe, whom Trump appointed as permanent DNI despite his lack of qualifications in the intelligence field, will have to decide whether to publicly release the documents.

Spoiler Alert: They won’t be released.

The conspiracy theory alleges that intelligence officials tricked the former adviser into lying to the FBI despite the fact that he pleaded guilty to doing so.

Multiple times. To the FBI. To the Media. In Court, WHILE UNDER OATH.

So, either he committed PERJURY IN COURT, or he was telling the TRUTH about Lying to the FBI and has no basis for Appeal of his MULTIPLE GUILTY PLEAS.

How did I miss that this clown is gone and Ratcliffe (no less a clown) is now at DNI? Regardless his job is done and I’m sure he’s walking away with a LOT of intel he shouldn’t have otherwise had.

Wasn’t he already working for Trumps campaign as DNI?

This is like when a Sr campaign official leaves a campaign to run an “uncoordinated” SuperPac.

Grenell is a gay man going to work for the most viciously anti-gay administration in decades. What kind of low foul stinking scum goes to work for people who hate them? Racist neo-Nazi selfish scum like…Obergruppenfuhrer Grenell. Hey, at least he’ll still get to beat up Blacks and Latinos and Asians and immigrants. So who cares if gays are attacked and maimed or killed because of Trump and other administration officials anti-gay pronouncements and policies.
