I wonder if Clapper has flipped

If anyone in this gang of miscreants is first to turn, it will be Clapper IMO.

I was reading about him the other day, didn't realize he got caught lying to Congress about NSA collecting data on American citizens. Many in Congress were calling for criminal charges or at minimum removal from office. It was all swept under the rug.

A Salon reporter (back when they were objective journalists apparently) put it best when he said:

quote:

if the U.S. government fails to treat Clapper and Alexander in the same way as it did Roger Clemens, "the message from the government would be that lying to Congress about baseball is more of a felony than lying to Congress about Americans' Fourth Amendment rights" and that the “message would declare that when it comes to brazen law-breaking, as long as you are personally connected to the president, you get protection rather than the prosecution you deserve


Clapper also banned members of the intelligence community from speaking with the press.

quote:

In March 2014, Clapper signed a directive that barred employees of the intelligence community from providing "intelligence-related information" to reporters without prior authorization, even to provide unclassified information, making a violation of the directive a "security violation"


quote:

The following month he implemented a new pre-publication review policy for the ODNI's current and former employees that prohibits them from citing news reports based on leaks in their unofficial writings


I guess that all went out the window when OMB started gaining traction in 2016.

I always thought so too.


It appears Durham is all over the security assessment written up by the NSC, you know where 17 SECURITY AGENCIES AGREE ITS THE RUSSIANS. When it turned out it was only a handful of people, from three agencies, and they were handpicked by Brennan, one of whom was strozak, which should give you an idea of the type people he wanted on this select group.

Brennan will probably get busted, but it wont matter if he rolls on obama or not, now maybe some others in the white house like valerie jarrett, and of course a few in the doj and the fbi.

Now comey will play the ole "cia gave me bad intel I was just as fooled as everyone else". Not sure that dog will hunt when he knew long before he "interviewed" in the WH with Trump and started writing his "memos".
