Please Help Me To 100,000 Sub : Make America Great Again Brennan, former CIA Officials, Terrified Of Trump Declassifying Documents
Former CIA and intelligence officials are getting frightened now that President Donald Trump has decided to declassify documents related to 2016 campaign spying.
They have bed led by John Brennan, the former head of the CIA and a CNN and MSNBC contributor, who is not thrilled with his decision.
“The concern is that very, very precious source and methods of the United States intelligence community as well as our partners and allies abroad — those who share this sensitive information with us,” he said on MSNBC on Friday, The Daily Caller News Foundation reported.
But Brennan’s concern, which was echoed by other intelligence community veterans and TV pundits on Friday, may be misplaced.
Government officials who appear to not be allies of Trump have been behind countless leaks of classified information regarding sources, methods and investigative targets in the Trump-Russia probe. Some of the leaks have disclosed the existence of surveillance warrants and FBI informants used against the Trump campaign.
In one case, the FBI official who led the investigation into Russian interference, Peter Strzok, believed that the CIA was leaking highly classified assessments about Russia’s election-related activities to the press.
“I’m beginning to think the agency got info a lot earlier than we thought and hasn’t shared it completely with us. Might explain all these weird/seemingly incorrect leads all these media folks have. Would also highlight agency as source of some of the leaks,” Strzok wrote in a text message on April 13, 2017…
In addition to Brennan’s interview on MSNBC, former CIA and FBI officials, many of them who have been critical of Trump, laid out their concerns about declassification to Politico and The Washington Post.
The Times article which revealed new details of the CIA’s Kremlin source echoed those fears.
According to the Times, the source, who the CIA has cultivated for years, provided the information that Putin was behind the cyber attacks and social media disinformation activities during the 2016 presidential campaign.
Despite those concerns, neither Trump nor Republicans have pushed for declassification of information about CIA sources.
