Analysts at U.S. Central Command were pressured to ease off negative assessments about the Islamic State threat and were even told in an email to "cut it out," Fox News has learned – as an investigation expands into whether intelligence reports were altered to present a more positive picture.

Fox News is told by a source close to the CENTCOM analysts that the pressure on them included at least two emails saying they needed to "cut it out" and "toe the line."

Separately, a former Pentagon official told Fox News there apparently was an attempt to destroy the communications. The Pentagon official said the email warnings were "not well received" by the analysts.

Those emails, among others, are now in the possession of the Pentagon inspector general. The IG's probe is expanding into whether intelligence assessments were changed to give a more positive picture of the anti-ISIS campaign.

I wish... but the Senate could watch Obama sacrifice a toddler on the Senate Floor with a dull knife, and still refuse to carry out the impeachment “removal process”.

Regardless, the House still has a moral obligation and responsibility to Impeach.

[DoughtyOne]

Amen.

Warning those drivers...

This guy is not on our side.

At the very least he has a conflict of interest. His own writings tell us whose side he intends to fight on.

Kick his posterior to the curb. And if he gets kicked a few other places on the way, I’ll be inclined to forgive the “accident”.

Please..........if anything happens..which I doubt...it would be someone we've never heard of thrown under the bus by the Kenyan's administration.

Forget thinking the Kenyan is getting impeached....

THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN....and I will bet $100K on that.......

Only a fool would bet against you.

Here’s a fun question. In this high tech world, the instant a Twitter account supports ISIS, why isn’t it blown away somehow with our tech?

Because the NSA and other agencies are too busy spying on it's own citizens?

Laying the groundwork for the reason behind Obama Bin Lyin’s ISIS policies. It was all the fault of someone else, not the well-meaning bestest POTUS ever, of course.

Safer than an FDIC insured bank account.

IMPEACH THE BASTARD ALREADY!

Treason is a hanging offense.

Time to get the gallows ready.

They need to televise it and make it mandatory for all politicians to watch

Screaming is rude

Right from the White house by ego,fairy boy.

Our good “friends” in Saudi Arabia appear to be a bastion of safe haven for ISIS. Followed closely by Iraq and Syria, both of whom Obama wants to import refugees from without restrictions. And coming in fourth place is the good ole’ US of A. Appears we have already imported our fair share of terrorists “in waiting”. This is outrageous and incomprehensible to me.

Sorry, Ryan is one of them, as is my Congress Critter and one of my Senators (POS Cornyn)
The Uniparty knows that we are on to them ... Cornyn is doing his Blue Crab run to the Right act and most folks ain’t buying what he is selling.

We really have a Banana Republic. America is a joke.

[ilovesarah2012]

Nothing will.
