"in the summer of 2016, then-CIA Director John Brennan convened a “secret task force at CIA headquarters composed of several dozen analysts and officers from the CIA, the NSA and the FBI.”"

"The Post described the unit as so secretive it functioned as a “sealed compartment” hidden even from the rest of the U.S. intelligence community; a unit whose workers were all made to sign additional non-disclosure forms."

A secret group was assembled by the Obama administration in 2016. No one knows what they actually did. Small bits of information about the group were leaked to the Washington Post.

President Trump needs to demand information on what happened and what the unit was all about.

That shouldn't be too hard for him to do, since he's the President.

Unless of course federal records have been destroyed, which would be a criminal offense, in which case he has any number of law-enforcement agencies that can investigate.

Brennan/Lynch/Clinton/Holder should have been arrested Day 1 of the Trump Administration.

I recall seeing somewhere that the original “source” for Brennan was one of the Baltic country intel services, maybe Estonia. Sorry I don’t recall where I read about this, a long while ago.

Anyway, they might have good intel or they might not. This article refers to it as “technical” intel but if the NSA was inclined to discount it then it might not be solid at all.

Consider this: both Brennan and Estonian intel (or other Baltic states) would have extremely strong motivations for undermining Russia’s relationship with the US. That’s no proof that the intel must be discarded, but it certainly suggests treating it with caution. We still have not seen anything to suggest Brennan should be trusted on this.

Certainly Brennan-Clapper-Rice-Obama have every interest in undermining Trump.

Purpose of the sealed, secret intel group? - to manipulate and fabricate intelligence gathering according to the Obama WH dictates.

Is it possible Russia has not been the bad actor we have been told? - that we have been fed fabricated intel all along?

Has McCain had any part?

I’m guessing the country is England, which would explain why they
are hiding Christopher Steele. They do not want Steele to talk.

Te source was a well placed Nigerian prince who promised a share of his parents heritage in exchange for creating a small balance ($10k) is a Swiss bank numbered account. After extensive negotiations he was found to be in possession of deep espionage contacts in Moscow. A steady flow of payments was made by the Obama administration ($10K montly)in exchange for which te CIA received dossiers about Russian hookers and Albanian mobsters.
Tying the threads of this trove of intel the CIA soon realized that Trump could be linked with the hotel frequented by both groups. This, coupled with known conversations with the Russian ambassador by Trump and his staff made it clear that the bed sheets needed changing twice daily.

Was David Ignatius part of the group?

If the traitors were going for a coup - they would need the power of the press working with them. Maybe Bob Woodward? Holdovers from Georgetown - those totally rejected by the Trump administration?

Not to mention the Post, CNN and the Times.

"Certainly Brennan-Clapper-Rice-Obama have every interest in undermining Trump."

Don't forget Comey and/or McCabe in that mix. Quote from article:

"While the U.S. Intelligence Community is indeed made up of 17 agencies, the actual report was the product of only three – the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and the National Security Agency (NSA)."
