Then why try and push for an end to an investigation before it is done? Through my interactions with him his actions often speak differently than some of his words as he goes out of his way to pretty much defend all things Trump.
I guess I missed the part where he's calling for an end to the investigation. Hey, I'm only human. Yeah, hard to believe but believe it or not, I'm not a super human.
There is only one logical answer. Trump never thinks his decisions are wrong. He is the narcissist king. That is one of the reasons he allies himself with Putin; because he is rich and thinks of his own self first.
I think I found it, something about Yemen in 2012. At first glance it looks pretty complicated, but maybe I'll read up on it later. barfo
What does leaking classified information to your employer who broadcasts it to our enemies have to do with being trusted with a security clearance? Did you seriously ask that, or did someone edit your post?
This is what I call unproductive feedback. In fact, it's counterproductive. Try rephrasing that a little more acceptable.
Actually, it is not that simple at all. The story as I understand it... A former FBI agent (and pedophile) leaked classified information to the press about an airline bomb threat from al queda in Yemen. The government tried to convince the AP not to publish the story,but they did anyway. The problem with the AP publishing the story was that it made it sound as if there was an imminent threat to air travel, which there was actually not. What the AP (and the leaker, maybe?) did not know was that it was a CIA operation, not a real bomber threat. Brennan was assigned to do cleanup - the government didn't want people freaking out about a non-existent threat. What Brennan did was tell some security analysts that the situation was under control. He didn't reveal classified information, but one of the analysts put 2 and 2 together and announced on air that we had a mole in al queda in Yemen. That caused the CIA to have to halt the operation, which might otherwise have gone on longer. Nobody deserves any medals for this, but it is probably not treason. Link1 Link2 barfo
...uhhh, the question was about "getting paid for leaks"...please try to keep up...or did someone edit your post?
This sounds like the plot of 'Burn After Reading' or something. One of my all time favorite movies and I think one of Brad Pitts best roles. I know it got bad reviews, but I really have no idea why.
