How can the CIA keep Trump from getting agents and sources killed? A Russian operative as President.

5. Chances are that the reason we didn't hear about the Russians months ago...

is simply to avoid letting them know the sources and methods.

Better install an insane President than to let the secrets out.

8. The CIA will trap him

by giving him some information that purposely leads the Russians to a wrong location. The information will be unique and given only to Trump. When the Russians show up at that location, he will be charged with treason. Right?

The question is will Dems learn. Will they join in another war or attack him like the GOP on Benghazi.

36. Uh, yeah, CIA vs The Prez is kind of a scary idea, ya' think?

 

JFK and the CIA/Allen Dulles were very much at odds, and even bitter enemies.

If interested, check this out:

https://www.amazon.com/Devils-Chessboard-Dulles-Americas-Government/dp/0062276174

here's more info:

https://www.harpercollins.com/9780062276162/the-devils-chessboard


It's derived from long-classified documents that were released to the author and his team.

I do not have a high degree of trust in the CIA, regardless of Trump and his situation.

History tells us the CIA is not trustworthy.


I say,
Be careful of the bedfellows the awfulness of Trump drives you to sleep with.

It's become hard for me to watch spy movies and war movies knowing that given a little time, the bad guys won in spite of the heroes in the movies.

Thanks, deplorables

17. I'm so there with you. I was watching a show on Hitler last night.

It was mainly about Hitler himself, not policies or campaigns. Probably not the smartest thing to do before bed, but saw so many disturbing similarities that I had nightmares. So afraid this is not going to end until he nukes somebody, maybe even our own people. The stupid ass Congressional Repubs think they're so smart playing him to get everything they want. I don't think they're going to find it as easy to "Dump Trump" when they want to. While they're off doing their giddy thing, Bannon, Conway and others in his cabal are manipulating him in their own way. I hate the guy, he's a #1 ass, he never should have been allowed in that position, but I do feel that he and his mental instabilities are being used and manipulated by both sides.

They are master manipulators -- and they can't figure out a way around that? They'll find a way, just like Comey and the FBI did.

21. Can't they provide documentation, recordings without revealing the source?

The source shouldn't have to be brought out if they are in an undercover operation regardless if they have something on our own elected officials.

24. CIA should do what he would do, just lie.

Make up a name and tell it is was *this* agent only it's totally made up. Drumpf can't be trusted with the truth. He'd call Pootie in a NY minute and give up the person. I can hear it now, D - here's the name, you do what you have to do to stop this and of course, I know nothing about it, P - naturally, you need deniability when something happens to him/her.

39. Altho I can see Mossad being a string-puller also

Given the probable international reach of the apparatus, it probably crosses national lines. Perhaps corporate connections, more likely a well-funded very cautious group with psyop capabilities.

At this point, probably every member of the US Congress has a dossier that can be used to influence votes as needed. Sex, money, drugs - the usual sins. Just a small reminder to a committee chairperson or speaker that the game needs to be thrown.

And don't forget the infiltration of the DOJ during Ashcroft's abortive reign. The xian alt-right kiddos were brought in to replace career/knowledgeable staff - all in the name of christ/whatever. Now, 8-12 years later these infiltrations have been sown throughout the federal and state governments - now with much more care and cunning. Not sure in the name of any caring savior, however.

If you were a deep agent, would you stick around to be outed by Trump's cozy dealings with Putin? I suspect we're losing human intelligence as quickly as they can get themselves out of danger.

38. Yeah, unfortunately. That sounds like a very reasonable concern to me.

And the CONS are all so thrilled and relieved that they "won" (OR I'd submit the more accurate verb here is "STOLE" the White House back that they'll do anything to sustain that status.

They've been dying to get the White House back, especially with a stooge installed at the top, who, as their anti-tax "god" Grover Norquist has said, only needs to know how to hold a pen - to sign whatever they put in front of him. I was gratified to see a clip of him at a podium talking about that very thing, played on either CNN or MSNBC in the last couple of days.

CONNECT THE DOTS.

He can't protect the nation's security. Moreover, he doesn't even want to.

35. I thought the CIA ALREADY HAD evidence

 

Now I'm confused.

You mean the CIA doesn't have any evidence yet?

I thought they said they had it, but did not want to release it, to compromise sources.

OK, so they actually never had the evidence to begin with.
That's what I have to conclude.

40. Guess we may find more confidence about the JFK assassination

If a few people suddenly die, like a Flynn, I won't believe it's just coincidence.

I'm no conspiracy guy either.
