... The acting director of national intelligence (Richard Grenell) has decided that it's time for America to stop sharing information with countries who aren't as pro-LGBT as he is -- a view that's eerily similar to Hillary Clinton's State Department, where ideological blackmail was the order of every day.
Instead, reverting to the cultural imperialism of the Obama years, he'd rather strong-arm countries -- putting national security on the line in the process...
..."I am not a seat warmer," Grenell warned. "The president asked me to do a job, and I am going to do the job to the best of my ability." But that job, most people would agree, never included a blank check to pursue LGBT radicalism at the expense of national intelligence.
And yet, in a letter last week to agencies he oversees, the mask of his true intentions came off. "While I will not be in this role for long," he admitted, "I plan to use this opportunity to drive a lasting impact for the Pride community... And I am asking every member of the IC leadership team to join me."
Now, in addition to pushing a policy that cuts off intelligence sharing with countries who believe differently than he does, Grenell is also assembling an international group of "gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender" advocates to change "anti-gay" laws (which, we know from experience, is the Left's code for any policy that promotes religious liberty).
Grenell claims he has the president's full support -- but anyone who's watched the last three and a half years has to wonder just how true that is. . . . . .

What a stupid piece. Grennell is using the LGBT crap as a shield against Democrat attacks, and it is proving VERY effective.
4 of us. He does want to stop countries from throwing homosexuals off buildings, maybe the author thinks that is radical.
LGBT... severe psychological issues to begin and definitely doesn’t belong in any intelligence office.
It's good to know that we don't need to emphasize islam, norks, or chicoms in our intelligence operations... Sure makes one feel so much safer...
“NEVER hire a homosexual. Like Indians, they only hire their kind.”
Spot on. I have seen it too many times.
“Prophecy News Watch?
M’kay....”
You nailed it.
So no sharing of intelligence with middle east? ok
Hope General Flynn gets his Case thrown out so President Trump can give him his job back and Thank Mr. Grannel for his service and send him on his way
>Grenell is also assembling an international group of “gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender” advocates to change “anti-gay” laws
How queer he is meddling in foreign elections and law
Of course, this is a backdoor (no pun intended) to a far less Muslim-friendly policy. I mean, let’s face it: if we aren’t going to share info with non LGBT countries, that cuts the entire Islamic bloc out.

U.S. May Share Less Intelligence With Countries That Criminalize Homosexuality
The move is part of an effort by the acting director of national intelligence to prod countries that outlaw homosexuality to instead decriminalize it.
By Julian E. Barnes
April 22, 2020
WASHINGTON — The Trump administration is considering cutting back on sharing intelligence with partner countries that criminalize homosexuality as part of a push by the acting director of national intelligence, Richard Grenell, to prod those nations to change their laws.
The intelligence community should be pushing American values with the countries it works with, Mr. Grenell said in an interview this week.
“We can’t just simply make the moral argument and expect others to respond in kind because telling others that it’s the right thing to do doesn’t always work,” he said. But, he added, “to fight for decriminalization is to fight for basic human rights.”

Beats me why Trump picked him in the first place.
From the NYTimes
Stuart Milk, head of the Harvey Milk Foundation and nephew of Harvey Milk, the first openly gay elected official in a major American city, said Mr. Grenell reached out to work with his organization on decriminalization. Mr. Milk said he was cleareyed about the Trump administration’s poor record on L.G.B.T. rights, particularly given its efforts to roll back anti-discrimination efforts for transgender troops in the military.
Queer Pro Quo
Mr. Grenell has also suggested in meetings that foreign aid be used as an incentive to prod countries with bans on homosexuality to remove them, said Hadi Damien, the founder of Lebanon’s Beirut Pride group, who participated in the discussions Mr. Grenell held as ambassador to Germany. But Mr. Grenell has been careful to try to use aid as an incentive to alter laws, not a sanction against countries.

It’s a rewrite of something Tony Perkins posted this week based on a NY Times article.
A Deviant as spy chief. Yeah, that’ll work. It’s so hard to believe it’s not over..

I just HATE it when people in important positions decide that their sexual proclivities are more important than my security.
