(note other interpretations of the situation are attached)
The Wall Street Journal reports:
INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES ARE WITHHOLDING INFORMATION FROM PRESIDENT
Spies Keep Intelligence From Donald Trump on Leak Concerns
Decision to withhold information underscores deep mistrust between intelligence community and president
To the extent this is true about a controlling element of the “intelligence community” and if they are allowed to succeed, America officially becomes a banana republic. The reasons:
– They have decided that Trump isn’t “trustworthy” or “discreet”
– They consider 63 million voters not “trustworthy” and “stupid”
The implication of the WSJ report is that we seem to now have confirmation that the President of the United States does not run the country…not if he won an election that overwhelmingly repudiated the leftist Democratic party agenda!
Instead the people are now wards of the state…a state in which liberal and radical left judges, civil service bureaucrats and billionaire oligarchs decide what laws they wish to observe and those they do not.
Serious stuff!
To me, one anecdote contained in Thursday’s Wall Street Journal (WSJ) makes clear that our government is in the hands of the ideological left and their hypocrisy is boundless:
“The current and former officials said the decision to avoid revealing sources and methods with Mr. Trump stems in large part from the president’s repeated expressions of admiration for …Putin and his call, during the the presidential campaign, for Russia to continue hacking the emails of his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton.”
This great concern by our “guardians” of the American people did not seem to come to the fore when President Obama was caught by a “hot mic” prior to the 2012 election telling Russian Prime Minister Medvedev that Putin should cool his concern about America’s nuclear disarmament proposals because he (Obama) will have a lot more “flexibility” after he’s reelected.
Apparently, none of those national security experts saw anything at all ominous about that apparent attempt to soothe the ” Russian menace” fears that America would not accommodate his agenda.
Nor was the intelligence community overly concerned with G W Bush’s warm relationship with “Pooty-Poot”. After “looking in the man’s eye”, President Bush was no longer concerned that the Russian leader was a “Soviet throwback”.
But now, especially with “Obama operatives” entrenched in all levels at all federal agencies, including intelligence, there is grave concern that it was only the result of a dark and devious plot between Trump and Putin that Hillary Clinton and the Democratic party lost big in the 2016 elections.
And so profound is the “proof” and belief that the intelligence community, the Democratic party, the news media, and George Soros cannot permit the elected president of the United States to govern the nation.
THAT’S THE VERY DEFINITION OF A COUP! AND THAT’S THE CULMINATION OF THE “TRANSFORMATION” OF AMERICA INTO AN OBAMA BANANA REPUBLIC!
And America’s “Doomsday Clock” continues to tick toward Midnight!
As we pointed out at the outset, alternate interpretations of the information contained in the WSJ article exist. Later in the day I came across this piece from Conservative Tree House (Sundance).
I was well aware of the passage Sundance highlights in the WSJ article and claims invalidates the entire story. To wit ” officials emphasized that they know of no instance in which crucial information about security threats or potential plotting has been omitted”
Funny, I had a different take entirely. To me that is vague and not definitive. Cynical me, I put almost no value in such statements.
Of course they “know of no information” about security threats being withheld. But whatever the extent that such imputations are true, that they are allowed to be given with impunity to undermine confidence in the president, it still results in a coup in effect. These are not whistle blowers who have tried channels, allowed channels to work, or have the courage to validate their claims. The point is that if the story is planted by insiders, made up or not, that it goes on is just as much a coup attempt, particularly when it comes anonymously.
Murdoch’s Wall Street Journal Publishes “Fake News” Gets Rebuked by ODNI…
The ridiculous scope of the undermining anti-Trump media narrative is growing exponentially more stupid as the content of their “stories” never match the alarmist headlines they are attempting.
The latest example from Rupert Murdoch’s Wall Street Journal is so over-the-top ridiculous, even the Office of the Director of National Intelligence rebuked it publicly.
Office of The Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) responds thus:
One does not usually bother rebuking “over the top ridiculous” unless it has legs. That it has legs means there is a den of vipers in the “intelligence community.”
