Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats says the nation's spy agencies will provide the Justice Department all appropriate information for its review of intelligence activities related to Russian interference in the 2016 election.

President Donald Trump claims his campaign was the victim of "spying" and has given Attorney General William Barr full authority to publicly disclose still-secret information collected during the investigation.

Some former intelligence officials and Democrats worry that Barr will cherry-pick intelligence to paint a misleading picture about the roots of the probe.

If Coats was on board the memo wouldn’t have been necessary.

The Latest: Coats says spy agencies to cooperate with Barr

I'll believe it when we see indictments. I believe that faking cooperation and making the enemy waste resources is in Spycraft 101 training.

“The Latest: Coats says spy agencies to cooperate with Barr”

Well how gracious of him. Maybe it’s the just the military in me but I don’t recall not obeying a legal direct order was an option.

What is it with these people that they become such institutionalists that they lose all honor? They only succeed in losing the respect of the American people.

“Dan Coats says the nation’s spy agencies will provide the Justice Department all appropriate information...”

I wonder if the “appropriate” description is per his evaluation?

Barr: Hey Dan, send me the document 208-07 detailing Brennan’s discussion with Obama Jan. 5, 2017 at the White House that your people secretly recorded.

Coats: Sorry, that is not appropriate.

“Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats says the nation’s spy agencies will provide the Justice Department all appropriate information”

No Dan, it will be “ALL INFORMATION!” The adjective ‘appropriate’ is inappropriate!
Nowhere in the Trump memo does it say you have any say in what you are required on request to provide to the AG and/or his investigators.

Exactly, and the other pr!ck who will likely be a problem is Wray.

“the nation’s spy agencies will provide the Justice Department all APPROPRIATE information for its review of intelligence activities “

Yeah; Coats will determine what is “appropriate”, and hold back everything else. Wasn’t he a McCain buddy? He’s certainly not going to provide anything that that will implicate Traitor McCain.

********************

actually, what Coats said was that intel agencies should *pretend* to cooperate with the declass. That’s what was meant by “appropriate”.

I’m concerned that Coats will cherry pick in reverse what he turns over to Barr. Coats is a snake.

He was cut out of the loop so he has no say in it.
This is nothing more than grandstanding on his part.

JMO, YMMV

We don’t want “all appropriate information”.

We want ALL related information.

That is excellent. The logical deductions there are spot on.
