      Since then, Harry Reid, then SSCI, then Adam Schiff, then others, called on O to declassify stuff.

      On Nov 26, the White House released an irresponsible (bc anon) statement downplaying RU influence. https://www.emptywheel.net/2016/11/28/white-house-attempts-unring-election-integrity-fearmongering/ …

      More Dems: release the Kraken, release the Kraken! Finally, McCain, then Lindsey, joined in, by more Republicans.

      CIA briefed again this week. WaPo's story is somewhat contradictory. Maybe consensus view among IC, maybe some "minor disagreements."

      ALERT ALERT! Aluminum tubes were a "minor disagreement," relegated to a footnote we all wish Senators (incl most involved here) had read.

      So today, White House says, "OK, let's do an all-IC assessment of CIA's theories, shall we?" Hours later, this leak occurs.

      Effectively, this is CIA (and Dem Senators) trying to pre-empt the WH review. They've given you the answer, who needs more?

      But this is not, yet, all IC assessment.

      I think we also need to bear in mind that planting Trump has serious conflicts w RU grand strategy vs West.

      If I were Vlad, Trump would scare me. Unless I had gotten reassurances from his puppet masters. Which is possible.

          I don't think Trump can be controlled. He's a wrathful, petulant, fickle, not-very-intelligent manchild.

          Ivanka had a "vacation" with Putin's mistress right in the middle of the election process. You suppose. . . .?

          Putin's alleged paramour is not someone who would be used as an implement of statecraft or spycraft.

          Mistress has Putin's ear, Ivanka is in Trump team, vacation was in August. Girl talk, I am sure, but. . It's possible

          I think that is exceedingly unlikely based on my study of Russian intel and Putin's Kremlin.

          Joel's right, but consider the co-vacay a simple gesture of goodwill, if you will. A symbol.

          You know I don't believe that good will thing, don't you? Ivanka's dad taught her to do deals. Like him.

          You seem to know what you're talking about. I like that. Is it kosher to ask how you know the nuances of IC publicity politics?

          VVP has been playing the West for its institutional weaknesses: need for consensus, bureaucracy, slow speed of action.
