Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) let slip a terrifying reality when it comes to the power of our nation's president over "executive branch" agencies like the CIA. In an interview Tuesday with MSNBC's Rachel Maddow, Schumer said President-elect Donald Trump is "being really dumb" by taking on the intelligence community because if he does "they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you."
Just let that soak in for a minute.
One of the most powerful senators just admitted that it is "stupid" for a president to oppose the intelligence community, which he is in charge of, because it will "[get] back at you."
Maddow, perhaps realizing the gravity of what he just said, questioned Schumer further asking skeptically: "what do you think the intelligence community would do, if they were motivated to?"
"I don't know... but from what I am told, they are VERY upset with how he has treated them and talked about them...," Schumer said.

Would the CIA lie to Americans about the past election?
Thanks to Travis Mcgee
Lying and deceit are the agencys most important job skill sets!
Trump continues to have that uncanny ability to unmask people and show their true selves. The campaign trail is litered with these unmasked clowns.
Schumer needs to appear before a Congressional committee to explain the six ways.
It would be nice to have Shumuh on the bad side of the wise guys.
I'd like to see Schmuck with a big Reid "exercise-eye".
Precisely!! Run this one out until the facking idiot apologizes or he is clearly made to be a blustering idiot!!!
Same liberal imbecilic Pelosi crap!!!!
Idiot doesn’t realize the Director of the CIA is Trump’s bitch.
YES, YES, YES!!! That should be the ONLY resolution to this remark!! Dipshit Schmucker has created lost confidence not only in himself, but the CIA!!! Excellent post!!
Just ask Nixon.....
Sounds like crappy oversight from the purse strings. And sounds like a lot of the swamp needs to not threaten our country.
So who is the president, then; the president or the CIA?
What a clown.
Drain the CIA.
Other than an out right attempt by the spooks to take him out I doubt there is little they can do to hurt the man.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
That was basically the problem with getting rid of Antonin Scalia. No other viable alternative.
I’m a bit surprised that no one on this thread has linked the Schumer threat to the Kennedy Assassination.
There are a lot of people who insist it was the CIA that took out Kennedy.
That is one of the “six ways from Sunday” that the CIA might use to take out a problem president.
Regarding the Intelligence Community illegal attempt to take out a sitting President?
Schumer let slip on 1/6/2016 that the shadow government was plotting against Trump. Hmmmm... Are sitting Senators and Reps colluding with anti-intel agents against Trump?MP< Including McCain and Lindsey Graham?
Bringing this thread back up as a point of reference that Schumer threatened hat the shadow government would plot against Trump.
Time for Trump to clean house.
Schumer let this slip on 1/3/2017 on the Rachel Maddow show.
Sounds like Schumer was colluding and encouraging the CIA to take on Trump.
What did Schumer know and when did he know it?
Who did Schumer talk to and what actions did they say they were going to take do to President Trump? Who did Schemer talk to? What days did he talk to them? What actions did employees of the federal government say they would use to take out President Trump? There should be a federal investigation of what federal employees threatened against the soon to be President when they spoke with a sitting Senator.

Looks like Schemer is in lock step cahoots in their attempt to take down a sitting President.
There needs to be an investigation on the Schumer and the CIA colluding to take down a sitting President.
