CIA chief:Intel leaks on the rise

https://www.apnews.com/32e68c0a9c13458f99e8e0ca4b83cc69/CIA-chief:-Intel-leaks-on-the-rise,-cites-leaker-'worship?utm_campaign=SocialFlow&utm_source=Twitter&utm_medium=AP_Politics

"WASHINGTON (AP) — CIA Director Mike Pompeo says he thinks disclosure of America’s secret intelligence is on the rise, fueled partly by the “worship” of leakers like Edward Snowden.

“In some ways, I do think it’s accelerated,” Pompeo told MSNBC in an interview that aired Saturday. “I think there is a phenomenon, the worship of Edward Snowden, and those who steal American secrets for the purpose of self-aggrandizement or money or for whatever their motivation may be, does seem to be on the increase.”

Pompeo said the United States needs to redouble its efforts to stem leaks of classified information"

Can you believe this nutjob?!?! Pompeo actually believes that leakers are fueled by worship phenomenon.

Did you ever imagine Pompeo that many citizens are true to country, not party? Leakers see all the evil, treasonous shit being peddled but yet cannot say anything! Leakers do not want worship...if they did they would give their names. They are ready to blow...so the only left is to get it out to the media! How did he ever get the job...he is such an idiot!!

Where in his resume does it show he is qualified to lead the CIA? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Pompeo

he knew he was a Russian asset. Pompous should lose his security clearance. He is NOT qualified to lead the agency.
