To be fair I think it's too early and kinda crazy to judge a President one day after he leaves office...

Yeah, you gotta string that out slowly for the next 8 years or so until there's someone else to blame.

Members of Congress can propose, but not make.

Geeze Chanti, I thought you, of all people, since you were there when they made it, would know the difference.
I do. But congress is where the process starts. Mostly. And usually dies.

Clapper: 'Disparagement' of intel agents cause for worry

Openers:
Quote:
Washington (CNN)The leading US intelligence official said Thursday that his foreign counterparts have expressed concern that President-elect Donald Trump is disparaging the US intelligence community, potentially damaging public confidence.

"I do think public trust and confidence in the Intelligence Community is crucial" both in the US and in other countries that rely on US intelligence, James Clapper, the Director of National Intelligence, told the Senate Armed Services Committee. "I've received many expressions of concern from foreign counterparts about the disparagement of the US Intelligence Community, or I should say, what has been interpreted as disparagement of the US Intelligence Community."

Clapper was speaking at a hearing on global cyberthreats that focused almost exclusively on Moscow's alleged hacking during the presidential elections....
I wonder if the CIA will do to Trump what they did to Kennedy ...

With added irony, government subsidized.

This, coming from the same guy who just stated that Russia hacked the American election, but stopped way too short to support his own argument.

Don't mind me, I'll just be here, rolling my eyes of the whole matter.

Clapper promises a report next week that ties Russia to hacking the election

Maybe this time, they can provide evidence.

Probably not though. Just coincidental evidence again, like the FBI/DHS report the other day.

Proof in 4 easy steps:

1. We're mad about something.
2. We don't like Russia.
3. ???
4. Russia did it.

I really don't see how them holding a briefing that reveals nothing about the hacking helps the American public. Most of what will be said will be "I can't comment but trust us !"

I don't see why people feel like the government would lie about this Russian hacking stuff. I bet you can't even name 1 10 50 100 1000 lies that the government has told the public... in the past week.

Move on? MOVE ON?!? Do you realize how important this is? A shirtless guy riding a bear personally hacked the email accounts of some idiots who probably have 1-2-3-4-5 as the combination to their luggage, possibly maybe perhaps having an unknown but negligible effect on the weirdest election ever. Think of the implications!
