President-elect Donald Trump, after growing suspicious that intelligence officials were leaking news about their classified briefings with him, says he conducted a sting operation to try to prove top spies were behind the leaks.
Trump revealed the extraordinary scheme to try to entrap the senior spies in a furious press conference where he suggested the intelligence community had been behind salacious and totally unproven allegations against him.
‘I think it’s pretty sad when intelligence reports get leaked out to the press. First of all, it’s illegal. These are classified and certified meetings and reports,’ Trump said during a press conference at Trump Tower – his first since getting elected.
Then he revealed the details of the stealthy sting he says he conducted on the nation’s senior spooks.
‘I’ll tell you what does happen. I have many meetings with intelligence. And every time I meet, people are reading about it,' Trump complained, possibly referencing reports on his classified briefings, which he has chosen not to receive daily. President-elect Donald Trump said he set a trap for his intelligence briefers and that they fell for it by leaking word of a classified briefing he had with them

It is certainly starting to look like we hit the jackpot with this guy!
I wasn't originally a Trump supporter, but I am beginning to think he is absolutely the right man for the time.
Whenever possible he has got to start making examples of those creeps.
They’ve been getting away with far too much for far too long.
Even McCain is all wound up in this mess and helped double down if I heard right.
Maybe Trump will finally be able to rid us of that monster.
And a very Happy New Year to you too! Finally, after three decades, I can once more be proud of our President.
Thank you for the detailed post. It reminded me of two people that asked a Governmental organization to look into a group of people, can you guess? McCain and Schumer went to the IRS and asked them to look into the Tea Party. Yes Schumer should resign out of disgrace...
I really think so too. Wasn’t too sure at the beginning, but he has given up a lot—and put himself in danger—because he clearly loves his country.
And the lawyer’s rundown of what he has done to dissociate himself from his business interests was awesome. Thorough, reassuring. And as she said a couple of times, he didn’t even legally have to do that. She quoted federal law.
I also loved how he said at the very end that if Don and Eric don’t do a good job, he will say “you’re fired!”
LOL!!!
Indeed!
Always loved your screen name.
Sleep well! Got to get to bed. At some point. ;)
John Roberts on with Tucker just reported the CIA called Trump this evening and disavowed the Buzz Feed report as coming from the intelligence agencies. It was all from private sources. Roberts’ interpretation is that the agencies are trying to back away from all of this.
*****
Did you see the Russian professor on with Tucker who said this was not from Russia, but intended to put Trump administration in jeopardy. Tucker had a somber reaction.

There never was an “addendum report” within the presidential intelligence briefing on Russia’s involvement, or any discussion of a ridiculous 35 page dossier

This needs to be investigated. Can you imagine if the Senate sitting minority leader threatened Obulumer by way of the CIA prior to his inauguration.?
This is PROOF that Schemer is Mafia. As is McCain. They are mafia because it's obvious they threats are rehearsed and real.
Both Schemer and McCain need to be under investigation for threatening the President elect.
Mafia informants need to come forward. Trump can and should get to the bottom of both Schemer and McCain's threats. And Lindsey Graham is also a stealth Lib making public threats against the President elect.
Thank you! I catch a lot of flack over it from time to time, but I feel it suits me.

I most definitely ought to do that, but I can't get over all the WINNING we are experiencing at the moment! :)

Yep. McCain sent this report to the Obama FBI in DECEMBER. AFTER the election. He is clearly batting for Team Dem.

Great way to start off the new year for the Democrats. New Senate Minority leader, and Wall Street mega-defender, Chuck Schumer just went on Rachel Maddow’s MSNBC show and warned Donald Trump that U.S. intelligence agencies could retaliate against him for disagreeing with their claims (based on no public evidence thus far) that Russia hacked the DNC/John Podesta and released it to Wikileaks with the intent of helping Trump win the election.
Chuck Schumer is now New York Mafia with his threats in the US Senate.
Mafia Schumer is his new name. Mafia Schemer goes in hard on Trump in this video clip:

obfuscation the (alef beit agency) is trying to divert the fact that they created isis... stay tuned...
Well, they certainly p!$$ed him off.
"They're all wee-wee'd up."
Of course they created ISIS.
And that’s the “big secret”. That’s what everyone knows will be exposed in a Trump admin. ISIS was a tool created by the CIA to carry out the Obama/Clinton/McCain/Neocon policy of regime change in Syria.
They are terrified. Republicans and Democrats alike. And every man in a policy position in the CIA and office of DNI.
The government is now bigger than even the President, and the spooks and spies always wind up at the top.
Its the end of the Republic.
You are so right. Love it,too.
Trudeau will regret skipping his inauguration. (It is a bit of a controversy up here).
