      Chris Hayes welcomed his NBC colleague John Brennan back on the show last night, and Brennan fumed that it was "outrageous" for Trump to declassify material related to the CIA's involvement in the 2016 election. Gee, I can't imagine why the former CIA Director would feel that way

      Brennan parrots the Democratic talking point that Trump is endangering national security by releasing this information. That's ALWAYS what "nat sec" officials say when they want to keep damning information repressed. Blanket appeals to "putting lives at risk." It's complete BS

          So Trump is simultaneously engaged in a "cover up" and releasing too much information. Makes perfect sense

          I feel it may be more accurate to say the Democrats have been channeling CIA talking points. They've become the unofficial Spook Party since 2016, to such an extreme degree that they've made the right-wing unitary executive theorist Bill Barr look like a civil libertarian!

          Was just going to say the same thing. The DNC (and the McCain wing of the GOP) are tools of the disinformation/destabilization demigods.

          "National security" seems to be Brennan's code word for his own & cronies' reputations Even A McCarthy (who works to expose Russiagate origins) often cautions that it must be handled carefully to prevent the revocation of nat sec state authorities, capabilities to 'keep us safe'

          1. I support abolishing all these fraud agencies but there is a credible point here about protecting witnesses etc. 2. Trump 100% would've declassified any unscrupulous activity as the basis for the Russia Investigation to derail it! So OBVIOUSLY this farce now is just a scam

          If he had declassified while the SC investigation was still ongoing, it would have been construed by Mueller’s team as an abuse of power and obstruction of justice.

          Dangerous or not dangerous, what about some fucking oversight? Basically what they want is zero oversight under any circumstances. Congress has been mostly a rubber stamp, with 50% of its intel specialists drawn from intel.

          Seems like a non-sequitur in this context. We're not talking about suppression of activists, but oversight of the powerful who mean to shut down critical voices and an attempt to tamp down oversight - to make it costly to cooperate with investigators.

          maybe its time to have that national discussion about the big elephant in the room - namely we have an unelected 4th branch of government with little oversight or checks and balances. and its a magnet for pyschopaths.
