The Office of the Director of National Intelligence announced late Wednesday that DNI John Ratcliffe has been notified that the intelligence community will not be meeting the Dec. 18 deadline set by an executive order to report on foreign threats during the November election as “agencies have not finished coordinating on the product.”
“This afternoon the DNI was notified by career intelligence officials that the Intelligence Community will not meet the December 18 deadline, set by Executive Order and Congress to submit the IC’s classified assessment on foreign threats to the 2020 U.S. elections,” Amanda Schoch, ODNI Director of Strategic Communications, announced.
The office confirmed that the upcoming report includes information about “relevant” foreign threats from the recent election.
“The IC has received relevant reporting since the election and a number of agencies have not finished coordinating on the product,” it said, adding that Ratcliffe remains committed to an expeditious release of the report.
Dec. 18 marks 45 days after the Nov. 3 general election, where, according to Trump’s executive order in 2018, the DNI was expected to deliver a report regarding “to the maximum extent ascertainable” whether any interference attempts took place, and the nature of such interference, methods used, and who was involved and authorized such efforts.
The order also directs the U.S. government to impose automatic sanctions on foreign nations, individuals, and entities who are found to be involved in trying to interfering in U.S. elections.
Richard Grenell, the former Acting Director of National Intelligence, wrote on Twitter just prior to the announcement that Ratcliffe “is standing up for career analysts who want their views to be accurately reflected. In other words, fighting to keep intelligence from being politicized.”

U2 ratcliffe?
I am sick of this bovine scat.
Yet another act of sabotage. The entire edifice of the national security state is rotten to the point of ruin.
Need to drag it out until Biden is already in office.
It is the next big thing that will fix everything.... until it isn’t.
Anyone reading this who is relying on our institutions to acknowledge the obvious fraud and stolen election are fools. Sorry, I know your heart is in the right place and you believe in justice, but all our institutions want to be rid of Trump.
That is it in a nutshell. “We the people” no longer control our institutions. We have a President who cannot even fire an FBI Director according to his own counsel lest he be investigated (again).
Fine. They obviously have work to do. They can do it at home. Tell them it's "safer" that way. But at the end of the meeting where you tell them this--before they even get a chance to go back in their offices--escort them all home. Impound their home computers, cell phones, and paper files, just long enough to duplicate everything. Meanwhile, do the same at their offices.
Do this to everyone in any office in the Executive Branch that's seemed the least bit uncooperative.
The result will be interesting, and a shortcut to separating the sheep from the goats. Flip some sneaks who might hope to avoid a decade or two in the Big House by talking.

Everybody in government is in on it.
“...until Biden is already in office.”
Then whitewash it, redact it, classify it, bury it, deep six it, etc.
I dunno. Grennel seems like a straight shooter, pun intended.
Maybe this is the DNI refusing a whitewash. I’ll wait for the next Trump Tweet, if Twitter is still “publishing” them.
8 and counting.
No. Trump needs to tell Ratcliff. You have 72 hours to root out the treasonous Chinee collaborators, and put the report on my dead 9 am Monday or I want your resignation. You have had long enough
No. Trump needs to tell Ratcliff. You have 72 hours to root out the treasonous Chinee collaborators, and put the report on my desk 9 am Monday or I want your resignation at that time. You have had long enough
All that and threaten their pensions, same way the IRS does to ordinary plebes. That’ll get em moving.
ALL branches and agencies of government are corrupt.
Who didn’t see this coming?
