“Director of National Intelligence (DNI) John Ratcliffe assessed that China interfered in the 2020 federal elections, according to a letter transmitted to Congress.

In the letter (pdf), Ratcliffe alleges that intelligence about China’s election interference was suppressed by management at the CIA, which pressured analysts to withdraw their support for the view.

Citing a report by the Intelligence Community’s analytic ombudsman Barry Zulauf, the director of national intelligence said that some analysts were reluctant to describe China’s actions as election interference because the analysts disagreed with the policies of President Donald Trump.” (Epoch Times)

Intelligence analysts downplayed Chinese election influence to avoid supporting Trump policies, inspector finds (Jan 7, 2021)

“The analytic ombudsman says Ratcliffe wasn’t being political — he was being honest that China intelligence was being suppressed for political reasons,” the senior intelligence official contended to the Washington Examiner.

Then they are after Trump because he CALLED THEM OUT last night.
The rest of our Congress is either payed off by the CCP, being blackmailed or COWARDS.
Obviously Trump is NOT A COWARD.
He will be President until January 2025.
The swamp is going to Gitmo.
They should really be hung for treason and INSURRECTION on November 4, 2020 at 0300 when they, the rest of the swamp and SCOTUS allowed a FAKE ELECTION which will be DISMEMBERED.

The CIA is not an ally of the United States. Their goals, schemes and actions have always been directed at subversion of any exercise of transparency that the more naive think has to be part of the dialogue.

Like a rattlesnake, they do not do what they do out of malice. It is purely a reflex response on their part. no more conscious than a muscle twitch under electrical stimulation.

I’m sure the JAG judges “heard it” and will give it due consideration.

Has the actual report been released? All I’ve seen is a letter. Interested to know what the evidence is. If there’s anything substantive in it , why hasn’t Trump let the eveidence out when iy could have helped him? Lots of crazy shit going on I don’t understand.

If Trump calls out the CCP for what they are, he will have powerful enemies going after him and his family for the rest of their lives.


He already does in case you missed the 2020 election and subsequent calls for another impeachment, criminal trials, corporate divestiture of all things connected to Trump Enterprises including property management and legal firms.

Who says it wasn't a joint operation?

“Neither the ombudsman report nor the letter from Ratcliffe includes specific details on China’s meddling”

If we’re going after China, it
probably wouldn’t be a good idea
broadcasting to the world, what
intel we have. The Rats involved
would scatter to the winds.
You can bet Ratcliffe has briefed
the president on everything he
was able to dig up.
