Supposedly, he is getting a copy of what is delivered to Obama's office, to be read by Valerie and the maid.

But you ask a great question. The president has the ability to mold the contents of this report by selecting who composes it, questioning and criticizing the contents, and so forth. The report that is created now is a reflection of Obama's interests.

The notion that the CIA and FBI are purely professional organizations is as believable as the calim that the media practices unbiased journalism. In orther words, a self-serving myth.

That'll be Newt's job. He's been around long enough he can discern "real" from "not real" on any intelligence matter.

And that's why I believe Newt will be Chief of Staff....the go to man.

Just remember his current advisor on National Security is Mike Flynn former director of DIA. Flynn’s former command produces a lot of what goes into that briefing [DIA is actually bigger than CIA BTW]. Flynn will know if Trump is getting the real stuff or not.
