Former CIA Director Morrell admitting sedition of the Deep State. Oh he didn't think it through. Dingbat.

[The_Media_never_lie]

Former Acting CIA Director Michael Morell thinks that intelligence agencies were too harsh to Trump during the campaign and presidential transition, according to an interview released Monday.

---

It is not up to the CIA, FBI or any govt. intelligence agency to be easy, or hard on a Presidential candidate.

It is, however, up the the CIA, FBI or any govt. intelligence agency not to ILLEGALLY spy on, or leak information on American citizens.

If no one is prosecuted for the abuse we have just seen, we are at the beginning of a police state. It will only get worse.

[PGR88]

FBI, CIA, NSA even with the tightest control from elected officials, will be most political, biased, and corrupt agencies within Fed.gov

Its the nature of their business - there will always be a temptation to deep corruption given what they do.

[hecticskeptic]

He concluded: “So, I think there was a significant downside to those of us who became political in that moment. So, if I could have thought of that, would I have ended up in a different place? I don’t know. But it’s something I didn’t think about.”

The image this leaves of Morrell is that of a whiny little boy standing in the corner wringing his hands as he mutters "we sure underestimated this Trump fellow....."

CIA: Communist Infiltration Agents.

Shut down the CIA, and bar any former CIA employee from ever working in any US government agency again.

I’m sure ‘intelligence services’ in Russia feel they’re smarter than the Russian people too.

All hellholes share some of the same stupid totalitarian ideas.

The solution? Cut these folks by about 90%. One look at the world before Trump was elected tells the story - they’re not worth crap.

[CaptainK]

Sounds like Director Morrell knows the sh*t is about to hit the fan.

[M1911A1]

This is just spin control. Morrell sees the Trump Train coming.

Team Trump is going to call out the DOJ and Intel Community for corruption and lawbreaking under Obama and before that.

The Russian collusion fire has gone out, the embers only living in the minds of those so hopelessly addled by liberalism that they are beyond the reach of the truth.

The Hail Mary before Team Trump drops the hammer is the “Sexual Predator” narrative. It didn’t work during the election, but now the mania of the witch hunt has seized the public, so why not?

When the President pushes that aside, look for “Trump is crazy and trying to become dictator” narrative. After all, a man who spends his time as CIC pounding oceans of diet sodas and watching TV all day has to be crazy, right?

That’s where the Morrell spin comes in. “We innocently and without malice opposed this crazy man, who has becompe paranoid and is trying to get revenge for our diligence by throwing us in jail and crowning himself Emporer.”

Eventually the Deep State diehards surrender or engage in violent rebellion.

Never thought I’d live to see an attempted coup in the US of A, but here we are.

[NorthMountain]

SOB regrets that he got caught.

[Behind the Blue Wall]

Whoa, man, if anyone should’ve thought something like that through, wouldn’t it be a CIA director? If he’s telling the truth, we’re in more trouble than I thought.

[DesertRhino]

They weren’t too harsh. They committed sedition. The absolute hallmark of nations that are not free is the security services being arrayed against the populace and the political opposition.

The bastards are beaten in their coup attempt...so now we are starting to hear meek apologies in hopes all will be forgiven.

Screw that...disband the CIA and FBI.

Hillary will not be pleased. (Well someone had to say it)

[Robert357]

Yes, it was a serious mistake on the part of the security agencies, but Trump will extract his pound of flesh and they will suffer for decades.

[JohnyBoy]

The CIA currently enjoys no status within the federal government. The Director of the CIA doesn’t trust the reports they give him because they’re frequently lied or omitted information in order to shape policy. Trump won’t even give them the time of day after repeated leaks from them.

This reduction in status is leading towards people leaving the CIA just as it’s doing in the state department.

[AndyJackson]

Didn’t think it through. That’s our CIA!

[Mama Shawna]

Right? Right? He sounds like a valley girl, right?

[Snowybear]

I noticed how all the leaks stopped once Reince and the press dude got canned.

[justa-hairyape]

Gee. Being a paid whore for Crooked Hillary has a downside ? What a surprise.

[Herakles]

Time to clear the decks in the CIA, FBI, NSA and all the rest of the alphabet soup in swamp land.

We, the people are paying them for political treachery so we will not lose anything by firing them all and starting over.

[jacknhoo]

OMG, I am so disappointed. We should add the letter “Q” to that acronym, because the intelligence is certainly questionable.
