Trump to Receive First Classified Briefing Tomorrow
ABC News ^ | 8/16 | John Santucci

Posted on 08/16/2016 12:11:55 PM PDT by TangledUpInBlue

Trump is planning to take with him New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, a former Defense Intelligence Agency director who has become an outspoken supporter of Trump, a senior campaign official said.

Career staffers from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI), the nation's top intelligence office, will be leading the briefing, which is expected to cover major threats and emerging concerns around the world.

Trump's session comes two days after he laid out a series of foreign policy proposals, including plans for subjecting immigrants to "extreme vetting" and temporarily blocking immigration from "the most dangerous and volatile regions of the world."

on the other hand, since the IslamoNazi foreign agent in Chief is occupying our WH, no security briefing by the administration can be trusted anyway

we need to clean the enemy out of our government...and especially out of all the security and defense positions they’ve wormed their way into!

This is dangerous. Just watched CNN - give me a medal! - and they mentioned the fact that Trump would get his first classified briefing tomorrow, and of course they called him a “loose gun” who is “shooting from the hip” and they were salivating at the thought of being able to talk about all the secrets he will divulge.

Maybe it would be a good thing to postpone the meeting, but without telling the press....and wait for the articles of “Trump leaks”.

I agree with your view!

Sending a message and keeping the “boys” honest.

What Mr Trump says is true, what clitnone says, is as usual, a lie, but if it were not so true, it would be funny.

Flynn will still have his security clearance as a retired 3-star general. He is a good choice for Trump to take with him. He will know what questions need to be asked of the briefer.

good cartoon, but I’d update it with Hillary as is, but add Uncle Joe in the background pointing out the guy who has the codes. Make it bite hard.

I don’t know if this is good news or bad. Now he will have to be much more careful in what he says.

They’ll just hand him a copy of the New York Times and tell him all he needs to know is in there.

The first hour will be lectures on the 50 different ways Trump could go to prison if he reveals anything he hears in the briefings.

Then, they will reveal:

1. Hillary and Obama did indeed create ISIS, and continue to support them.
2. Hillary has both Parkinsons AND a brain eating amoeba.
3. Soros runs the government, and is helping the US become a caliphate.
4. Most in Congress and government are in on the plan, and are receiving offshore accounts in return for their cooperation.

The meeting will conclude with a reminder that Trump can't breathe a word of any of this or he will go to prison.

Was thinking the same thing. After one meeting he’ll have more savvy regarding world events than the illegal ever did.

You just said exactly what I was going to post.

They will use it to smear Trump, no matter what is said.

It sounds like a meet and greet. Future agendas will hopefully cover items of interest with truthful candor.

Yup! He KNOWS. I served at DIA for four years. The Director is very-well informed and knows what’s BS or not.

Well they should cover the breadth of available info and analysis available so as to srt the content for the future. Maybe even a video conference with Snowden...
