Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

      Some of you seem to have missed that EVEN WaPo's account of what CIA & FBI agree on changed in last week. https://www.emptywheel.net/2016/12/16/just-before-obama-weighs-in-on-the-russian-hack-john-brennan-tells-everyone-what-he-says-others-said/ …

      Last week, electing Trump was "Russia's goal." This week it is "one of Russia's goals." Subtle difference, but worth noting.

          And still--WaPo's CIA sources seem uninterested in most obv goal: retaliating v Hillary. I wonder why CIA downplays its covert ops? 🤔

          Not to mention: None of the leaked excerpts of Brennan's letter say WHAT FBI & CIA & DNI agreed on. Just that according to Brennan they did.

          Did you notice FBI & CIA & DNI weren't in the same room when they all agreed? Nope: 2 separate meetings. A big fat game of spook telephone.

          Again, Vlad Putin is by no means the only spook in the world who knows how to run an info op.

          Also consider: of Brennan, Comey, Clapper, name the one top spook who MIGHT still be in his job 45 days.

          At some point the Intel Committees are gonna ask, "say, how much of that leaking in Dec was officially sanctioned?" Exec obliged to list it

          By that point, tho, Clapper will be happily retired and Brennan will be back in the War On Terror Contractor Gravy Train.
