Literally the first official thing he did after being sworn in. 9am, Monday morning. He had to show he had support in the Agency to avoid being assassinated.
The response from CIA veterans was scathing.
“I was stunned when Trump said that ‘probably almost everybody in this room voted for me, but I will not ask you to raise your hands if you did. But I would guarantee a big portion, because we’re all on the same wavelength, folks,'” wrote Dennis Gleeson who served as the CIA’s director of strategy within the Directorate of Analysis. “Setting aside Trump’s earlier disparagement of the Intelligence Community, you must understand that the agency, unlike the departments of State and Defense, is unusually apolitical. In fact, there is only one political appointment: that of the director,” Gleeson continued, explaining how he felt that Trump was attempting to turn the CIA into a partisan vehicle for exploitation.
As if the CIA wasn't politicized. It did everything it could to unseat Trump. Everything they accused him of, they were doing themselves.
The comparison of the CIA to the Nazis is something that one would normally expect from the far left and from communist agitators.
Critical support to...Donald Trump? :funny-clown-hammer:
Whether or not the CIA actually leaked negative information about Trump to the press is unknown, but possible.
Yes they were colluding behind the scenes the whole time.
I remember that room. I learned about it on the first day of Trump's presidency, when he visited it (it's at CIA headquarters in the front, not in the classified section). He surrounded himself with rank and file CIA employees to prove he had support in the agency. The deep state ghouls were pissed. They spit and hissed in his direction on Twitter, saying he profaned their sacred spot and it would never be clean again.
That was when I really realized that we were under the control of intelligence agencies, that they were at war with Trump, and that they would win.
Injuries from glass shards hospitalized him for 45 days, where he developed pneumonia and sepsis, which ended his swimming career.
I think if you leap into a reservoir to save drowning children, especially if the situation was caused by a runaway trolley, you should also get an honorary philosophy degree.
I was floored when it was pointed out unpaid internships weren't supposed to be some hardship position for people who wanted it badly enough, they were to sort out people who had family wealth and didn't have money. Since the internships are a road to elite positions later on in life, only the select are allowed in the door.
The rule of law certainly applies - to everyone but themselves. Since their morality is so clearly higher than ours, it excuses them from having to follow it. To be sure, the US Constitution is suitable for us, because without it we may become unruly and overthrow them. But they are freed from its restrictions as they have examined themselves and found that their motives are pure and intentions worthy.
Just like evil always does.
