Can we take this as official confirmation that there is something called the deep state and it’s doing its work as we speak? Grabien Media founder Tom Elliott came across a clip of former CIA director John McLaughlin (seated with John Brennan) talking about President Trump and the intelligence community.

They are bold and unafraid. They must know the same thing proudly armed American patriots know.

Not at all surprised by the attitude...but I am surprised that anyone would openly admit it. But I must say that I'm offended by the label "deep state"....it's far too gentle.

I much prefer "Swamp".

What he stated is at the same level as the worst traitor the US has endured throughout history.

Just who in the hell do these people think they are? Just who do they think they work for? Just who fo they think paid their salaries?

These people need a real civics lesson. A lesson on an interstate in West Virginia with a flat tire at midnight after being recognized by a coal miner on his way home after his shift.

So the deep state and intelligence community sees itself as standing above, monitoring, spying on, infiltrating, and directing the activities of the President.

Thanks for admitting America’s intel community has noting to do with protecting the nation. That farce needed to die long ago.

The Deep State.
"It is one of the few institutions in Washington that is not in a chain of command".
Which makes it a rogue agency.

Openly stating that there are treasonists in the wire......Now that the obvious has been clearly verified its open season for traitors ...God be with our great President Donald John Trump.

They seem to have forgotten Rule .308

[blackdog]

These attitudes are emboldened by the fact that so many crimes by so many of their ruling elite pals have gone unprosecuted.

That has been a huge mistake. They feel their swollen ranks in a swollen swamp leaves the institutions of government too big to fail. They are flaunting their criminal coduct.

Brennen, Clapper and Comey, three lines, no waiting...

Senator Chuckie-Cheese Pagliacci Schumer said this January 13, 2017.

“Let me tell you, you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you,” Schumer told MSNBC's Rachel Maddow.

“So even for a practical, supposedly hard-nosed businessman, he’s being really dumb to do this.”

Let's pray we avoid the final insurance policy of the coup d'etat and get to the "As the World Turns" option --- which in my heart-of-hearts I believe is/was actually considered by these vipers.

The CIA asked Trump not to release a trove of JFK assassination files, even though the law said they were to be released last year. Trump agreed, and pushed back the deadline for a few more years.

And this is how the CIA repays him.

It’s chilling how our elected officials lack any outrage about a CIA official talking about undermining the elected president.

Where is Lindsey Graham with hearings?

Cowering, fearful of what the CIA would do to him?

[Fiddlstix]

Hangin’s too good for ‘em!

[rintintin]

‘the “As the World Turns” option’

Trump is meddling with the primal forces of nature. My advice to him: stay out of Dallas.

[Gay State Conservative]

Yup,that works too!

[DesertRhino]

Dirty. They are dirty. Everything needs to be released... like the Germans did with the Stasi. America needs some disinfecting sunlight.
