This evening, I had the opportunity to speak with President-elect Donald Trump to discuss recent media reports about our briefing last Friday. I expressed my profound dismay at the leaks that have been appearing in the press, and we both agreed that they are extremely corrosive and damaging to our national security.
We also discussed the private security company document, which was widely circulated in recent months among the media, members of Congress and Congressional staff even before the IC became aware of it. I emphasized that this document is not a U.S. Intelligence Community product and that I do not believe the leaks came from within the IC. The IC has not made any judgment that the information in this document is reliable, and we did not rely upon it in any way for our conclusions. However, part of our obligation is to ensure that policymakers are provided with the fullest possible picture of any matters that might affect national security.
President-elect Trump again affirmed his appreciation for all the men and women serving in the Intelligence Community, and I assured him that the IC stands ready to serve his Administration and the American people.
James R. Clapper, Director of National Intelligence

“Arrest these sobs and throw away the damned key!”

Too bad JFK didn’t have the chance to break the “IC” into a thousand pieces, as he wished to do.
Intelligence?
Did he get Donald Trump’s permission to reveal the substance of their meeting?
Somehow I doubt it.
He just leaked a story about how he is pissed off about leaks.
Amazing
Agree.
I don’t believe anything The Clap says.
He denies the U.S. Intel community did not leak it,
but not say the Intel community would find the source.
That makes his statement bogus.
Who paid the retired MI6 spy for this fake report?
Americans must know the answer to this question.
We get to the bottom of this leak.
Heads will roll.....
Within every agency there have to be true patriots ,who long to be whistle blowers , on all the Obama orchestrated crap they have witnessed and had to put up , for the last 8 years .
ALL of these types should now be encouraged to come forth and tell ALL THEY KNOW and can substantiate . Including re: Benghazi and the intel cover-ups.
Give ALL of these IC whistle blowers a fast track and a secure method to get what they have straight to White House and the NEW FBI
John Brennan is going down and I bet McCain is going with him.
Guantanamo , should be developed as the place of incarceration for all such American political and intel traitors which are unearthed in the wake of the treasonous Obama era . To include Barack Obama , Hillary Clinton , Eric Holder , Loretta Lynch , James Comey and many others .
Any suggestions ?
Let them share quarters , and shame , with our worst of enemies . And DO NOT pamper ANY OF THEM down there , anymore .... hard time , hard labor . Make um suffer .
He should have just signed it “Former Director Clapper” and turned in his badge at the same time.
Lying to Congress and deliberately and illegally leaking classified information to the Media are crimes.
Clapper is toast.
May God have mercy on his lying soul.
TWB
IOW it’s CYA time...

Just another dirtbag. One more mealy-mouthed word mincer. We know it isn’t your “product”! We know McCain handed it to you and you ran with it! Didn’t you!? You obviously didn’t use very good discernment. We know that too. You don’t have to tell us. You’re all looking worse by the minute in the this fresh new Trumplight.
Translation: It wasn’t me.
Nobody said it was. Total misdirection CYA here.
Did you hear Trump this morning at the press conference explaining his consternation about leaks after meeting with people who (you would think) should know how to keep a secret (like Clapper).
Trump said he scheduled one meeting and didn’t even tell his confidential secretary of many years. No one else knew.
Sure enough, within a short period of time the meeting was in the news.
Ask for resignations or hang them, their choice.
CNN believe this statement vindicates their reporting. However, nowhere in the statement does Clapper say Trump was brief or provided the 2 page synopsis. Nice try CNN.
Americans need to know who paid Mr. Steele, ex MI6 agent for
this Fake Report.
Follow the money.
Perfect comment! Implying that leaks by the hacks at the CIA are the exception rather than the rule is preposterous.
Shouldn’t this reply have been leaked? I mean, at least for consistency’s sake?
Did you notice that this British Spy referred in the dossier to the "World Cup Soccer Tournament"?
How many Brits do you know that use the term "soccer"?
The whole thing is bogus.
