House Democrats are livid after the Director of National Intelligence, John Ratcliffe, announced that US intel agencies would be pulling the plug on in-person congressional briefings on election security, and will instead be providing written updatesahead of November.
In a verbal notification to the House Intelligence Committee, chaired by Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), Ratcliffe argued that the process will prevent the unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information, according to The Hill.
Ratcliffe followed up with Friday letters addressed to top House and Senate lawmakers in which he emphasized that the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) plans to continue Congressional oversight efforts.
"The ODNI will primarily meet its obligation to keep Congress fully and currently informed leading into the Presidential election through written finished intelligence products," read the letters, which were obtained by The Hill.
"I believe this approach helps ensure, to the maximum extent possible, that the information ODNI provides the Congress in support of your oversight responsibilities on elections security, foreign malign influence, and election interference is not misunderstood nor politicized. It will also better protect our sources and methods and most sensitive intelligence from additional unauthorized disclosures or misuse."
Democrats are not happy

I bet the Intel community is tired of wasting their time on a huge nothing burger.
ReplyDeleteOh well let them be livid. Hopefully it will cause both their BP's to rise and they will both die of a stroke. The world will immediately be a better place schiff is a liar who goes out after every briefing etc and lies to the public.
ReplyDeleteThe dumbocrats couldn't care less about our country.

ReplyDeleteSmart plan. What they are told is ink on paper, shared with select members and off limits to the rest. If it leaks, much shorter chain of suspects to hold accountable.
Loose lips sink ships.
What are they hiding?
ReplyDeleteNothin it will all be in writing. If classified I believe each person who received a copy must sign they received it. Makes it easier to track the leaker. Good move. You know it's good if Democrats object😂😂😂🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
DeleteShiff has some serious issues going on. He is psycho. There must have been some dirty little secrets going on in the schiff household when he was growing up that messed his head up big time. Wouldn't surprise me if his mother didn't force him to perform oral sex on her when he was a child while his father watched. That is how sick he is. That lying and living in an alternative universe is the sign of some sicko things that went on in his life.
ReplyDeleteAnd that sicko has been in office almost as many years as Biden.
ReplyDeleteThis pair actually should be so embarrassed, they won’t even be in public. What a load of crap they together are.
ReplyDeleteMaybe it'll be the one disappointment that sends them packing. (Dontcha wish?)
ReplyDeleteOf course they are. No more leaking government intelligence to CNN. They can't play games anymore.
ReplyDeleteAbout time in keeping the leftmedia out of the intellengence loop where they don’t belong.
ReplyDeleteThese old folks sure don’t play well with others.
ReplyDeleteThe one and only way the democrats can win is by cheating, so if Biden wins, you'll know what happened. They are determined to win by hook or crook. They could never do it honestly.
