(corrected) However, completely silent about his termination. As much as he LOVES talking about himself, some issues are completely SILENT. You are such a funny little guy! What termination? Is that a fantasy that makes you feel better? Have at it, if it helps take away the pain of being who you are. Let's get on topic again here....trump in general and the trial in particular.... Not sure whether you think trump had a tryst with Stormy, but you do know it doesn't even matter, because he isn't on trial for getting spanked or cheating on his 3rd wife. He's on trial for the hush money payment and how he accounted for it. Why did he have to do a 'catch and kill', when Hillary faced the GRU lie of Uranium One plus her supposed deathbed-level health scare, yet she didn't feel the need to do a catch and kill? I guess he knew it would hurt his election chances. Elsewhere, why did he steal thousands of classified documents? Do you think he can "declassify with his mind"? Would you be in favor of publishing every document he stole, even sending full tomes of all the docs to Putin, Xi, Kim Jong-un, the mullahs in Iran, and any other hostile nation? Why did he lie about returning them and have his lawyer sign a release attesting to that, when he still had highly classified docs at his country club, requiring the FBI to do a search and seizure? Why did he call his goobers to DC on 6 January and Tweet "It'll be WILD!"? Why did he tell them to "march to the Capitol" and "fight like hell"? Why did he lie and say Pelosi could have called for the Guard, when only POTUS can do that? Why did he lie and say he ordered the Guard to the Capitol, when the head of the DC Guard testified in Congress two weeks ago that trump did not order any Guard to go anywhere? If you prefer not to deal in facts and reality, then go ahead and call me a clerk or typist or whatever makes you feel better about yourself. Pretend I was "terminated", too. Your fantasies do me no harm, so knock yourself silly. Escape from yourself for a while. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawaiian Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 3 hours ago, Walker88 said: Ah, I see you, too, have no clue what the agency does, probably gaining your 'knowledge' from Hollywood B-Fare. The agency is part of the Executive Branch. It gets tasked by the President to perform some tasks, while also regularly collecting and analyzing intelligence. If a President or Congressperson asks for some intel, the agency goes out looking for it. Some Presidents value what it produces, others (like trump) only want to be told what they already believe and want to hear. Covert action is ALWAYS at the request of the President. Generally, the agency is asked for options, and provides those to the Oval Office. The President then decides and issues a Finding, under which the agency will undertake the operation. There are no "rogue" operations. If a major covert action is undertaken, it is because the President has requested and approved it. The agency also tends to protect the President's public image. For example, the agency did not believe Saddam still had WMD, but Cheney was hellbent on an invasion. He got Tenet to go along, even though at the analytical level WMD was not believed to exist. The Neocons overruled. The disaster followed. The same thing happened in Afghanistan after 9-11. The agency argued the US should take out the al Qaeda bases, but not bother to try to bring the country into the 21st Century, arguing it would be a forever war. Bush didn't want to hear that and he set the stage for the wasted next two decades. The agency does not get everything right, but more often than not, it does. It also kind of encourages two polar opposite views...that it is nearly omnipotent and that it is quite incompetent. Both have value. The nature of intelligence work relegates the reality to somewhere between those two extremes. Mods: I appreciate this is off topic, but there is so much misinformation and misunderstanding that---since those folks have posted comments---I am addressing them.

Popular Post Walker88 Posted May 11 Popular Post Share Posted May 11 6 hours ago, Yellowtail said: "I think the vast majority of former and current case officers---see the threat to everything the US stands for in trump..." You mean you guys are going to have to start doing something? Seems everything we hear from the CIA is wrong. I guess that Hunter laptop Russian disinformation OP worked out though, you got a leftist elected, yeah? Figures you live on the public teat and seem to have so much contempt for the people that pay you. You might want to go read the SSCI report on the Russia investigation. The Repubs were the majority when they released it, and I don't think you could call them "leftists". They noted the travel to Spain of Paul Manafort his first week in the job of trump's Campaign Manager, where Manafort gave GRU asset Konstantin Kilimnik internal polling data from the trump campaign. Kilimnik then passed it to the GRU's Internet Research Agency, where they made up stories about such things as Uranium One and got them in the Facebook feed of voters in key swing States. That kind of smells like cooperation. The SSCI Report also noted the relationship between Roger Stone and Julian Assange, who had received emails hacked by a Romanian FSB asset from John Podesta and the DNC. Stone gave trump regular heads up on when new emails were going to be released. That, too, kind of smells like cooperation. Oh, and 140 contacts during the campaign between Russians and trump campaign officials, including donny, jrs "I love it!" meeting with a Russian asset in trump tower. Maybe the CIA gave the Repubs on SSCI special "leftist vaccines"? LOL Lucky for trump he had Barr as his AG. The good news is trump lost in 2020, the trump Recession and trump's 6.8% unemployment ended under Biden, and we've now seen 27 straight months of UE below 4%, the first time that has happened since the 1960s (You can go to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, a part of the Dept of Labor, to get the numbers if you so choose.) 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roo Island Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 54 minutes ago, Danderman123 said: I think this refers to an old IRS investigation where they couldn't come to a conclusion. Agreed. Seems investigate reporters are digging into this. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/11/us/trump-taxes-audit-chicago.html This account was pieced together from a collection of public documents, including filings from the New York attorney general’s suit against Mr. Trump in 2022, a passing reference to the audit in a congressional report that same year and an obscure 2019 I.R.S. memorandum that explored the legitimacy of the accounting maneuver. The memorandum did not identify Mr. Trump, but the documents, along with tax records previously obtained by The Times and additional reporting, indicated that the former president was the focus of the inquiry.
