WTF?

In America he says there is “No There, There” and while abroad makes broad and baseless claims?

Clapper is a liar. He has provided no proof but slander.

Oh, much worse than that

Clapper’s behavior and various statements indicate to me, this is evidence of an intelligence/surveillance community that is now a 4th branch of government, and its bureaucrats are a force unto themselves.

“Ever transactional, [Trump] simply asked me to publicly refute the infamous ‘dossier,’ which I could not and would not do,” he added.”

Is he talking about the fake Trump dossier?

No, Clapper is a lying Sack of sh...

He knows it’s all BS, but he will toe the Marxist ideologue line and continue the narrative.

These bastards are not as dumb as we like to make them out to be. They understand that there are millions upon millions of Americans that are easily swayed by their rhetoric and they are playing to that crowd.

So that seals his fate.

Clapper sold himself to Obama and the Clintons for the Big Job as DNI.

Clapper is an enemy of American democracy, a deranged Statist willing to do anything to retain control of the entire state apparatus for his own power.

Now he schemes to bring down an elected President at the behest of his political masters through exagerration, hyperbole and outright lies.

An example of everything wrong with America now: a bureaucracy in revolt against the system and people who created it.

Watergate was a Nothingburger, and the Trump/Russian election collusion is a piece of fiction pulled from the DNC's (and their various propaganda friends) posterior.
So I don't know what pales what. They are both phantoms ... not something real like Benghazi, or Server-gate, or Fast and Furious, or Muslim brotherhood agents infecting the halls of our government, etc...

Trump’s administration should go after him for perjury.

Clapper is a lying piece of garbage.

I hope he croaks while in Aussie land.

I am so glad I am not POTUS. If I were Clapper had better look both ways before crossing the street. Aren't you glad I am not POTUS? ; )

Once had a great deal of respect for General Clapper, but no more. He cast his lot with Team Obama and may pay the price for that choice. If Sessions and Company are willing to dig into the real leaking scandal, they will likely find Jim Clapper right in the middle.

Prosecuting a few high-level Obama officials would do wonders towards fixing the leak problem.

Pardon me, Mr. Clapper, but can you point to just one solid, undeniable piece of evidence showing Russian involvement in the 2016 election?

No? Thought so. STFU.

Both “scandals” were contrived by the socialists/swamp/globalists/elitist. For the same reason, they feared a leader that didn’t dance to their music.

In truth they both pale when compared to each other, into oblivion.
