Justice Dept. Seeks to Question C.I.A. Officers in Russia Inquiry Review

New York TImes ^ | 6/12/2019 | Julian E. Barnes, Katie Benner, Adam Goldman and Michael S. Schmidt

[House Atreides]

That’s his own body odor he’s catching a whiff of and reacting to.

[tennmountainman]

All the lies Brennan told on CNN when he wasn’t under oath will
soon change when he goes under oath. And then comes his indictment.

[Dogbert41]

"Senior agency officials have questioned why the C.I.A.’s analytical work should be subjected to a federal prosecutor’s scrutiny."

Because HIGH F'ING TREASON. That's why!

[aces]

uh bowel trouble?

[monkeyshine]

Even when the real story is staring them in the face, they can't get off their narrative:

"the Justice Department will take a critical look at the C.I.A.’s work on Russia’s election interference"

That's not exactly what the DOJ is looking at, is it?

[monkeyshine]

Maybe because even the CIA is subject to the rule of law?

[kevao]

I think what your looking for is this:

"the Justice Department will take a critical look at the C.I.A.’s work on fabricating Russia’s election interference"

[Gene Eric]

Investigate Sessions too.

[CaptainK]

It took 4 NYT reporters to spin this story. It’s getting harder to spin as each day goes by.

[MtnClimber]

Maybe because it’s highly probable they broke laws?

Coordinating foreign spying and reporting to them something that would be illegal for the US intel to do....spying on a US Citizen. Looks like Italy, UK and Australia are involved, maybe more. Then there is the deception of the FISA courts, using Clinton/DNC/0bama fake dossiers to spy on Trump. Even then they found nothing, but the fake dossiers are the Marxist means that justify the ends.

[ding_dong_daddy_from_dumas]

Maybe because even the CIA is subject to the rule of law?

Beto and other sockpuppets have been repeating Trump is not "above the law." But the CIA is sacrosanct?

[ETL]

Now what could they possibly think was wrong over at Obama's CIA agency??

CIA Director under President Obama, John Brennan

John Brennan Voted Communist in 1976, Then Entered CIA in 1980

Eric Zuesse
March 31, 2018

Barack Obama’s CIA chief, John Brennan, told the Annual Legislative Conference of the Congressional Black Caucus, on 15 September 2016, in Washington DC, that when he had applied in 1980 to join the CIA, he admitted to them that in the 1976 Presidential election, when Jimmy Carter was running against Gerald Ford, Brennan had voted instead for the candidate of the U.S. Communist Party, Gus Hall, and that he was then greatly relieved to find that this information didn’t cause rejection of his CIA-application.

This had happened 11 years before the 1991 end of the Cold War...”

"During the Cold War the CPUSA [Communist Party, USA] had a parallel underground structure, and a small number of people spied for Moscow.

Until the 1980s the party was receiving substantial amounts of Soviet funding, says Klehr, money that the FBI knew about and tracked."

four NYT hacks to come up with this?

“indicating they are focused partly on the intelligence agencies’ most explosive conclusion about the 2016 election: that President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia intervened to benefit Donald J. Trump”

in your dreams, NYT. there’s a critical mass worldwide, closely noting all the revelations/evidence regarding Spygate/Russiagate/Coupgate, and we eagerly await the reckoning, especially of the FakeNewsMSM.

[monkeyshine]

It used to be different, back in the day when the left was concerned with Civil Liberties - even to the point of rising to defend the American Nazi party’s march in Skokie. Today, it’s just amazing how the left in this country have now become cheerleaders for the FBI and the CIA.

Just like the left in Venezuela and Cuba love their intelligence agencies...?

[monkeyshine]

Good catch. They’ve missed the real story for the last 3 years - even with four of them on the case they can’t get it right.

[Chode]

never let-em see you

[thoughtomator]

Begs the question, WHY wasn’t voting Communist a disqualifier for joining the CIA at that time? Who made that decision?

[DesertRhino]

So what’s the arguing against it? That the CIA does not answer to the president? The attorney general has been tasked by the president by getting the answers about the coup attempt. Does the CIA believe they do not answer to the president? We all know the answer, but it’s nice to see the bastards called out on it.

[ETCM]

I just heard on Hannity that “whistleblowers” are coming forward. They believe that Barr is the real deal.

I'll believe it when these “whistleblowers” testify, but I know these folks know what is at stake for they and their families. Actually believing that it is safe to talk would be a tipping point.

[DesertRhino]

Maybe because they are not an independent branch of government? Maybe because they actually have to answer to the president or his representative?
