Donald Trump speech at CIA memorial risks fueling intelligence feud
The Guardian ^ | 1/21/2017 | Some Moron

Posted on 01/21/2017 9:53:14 PM PST by DouglasKC

Donald Trump may have thrown fuel on to his feud with the Central Intelligence Agency, through what he apparently intended as a peace offering.

Traveling to CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia in what the White House pointed out was Trump’s first official act in office, Trump stood before the agency’s memorial to its dead officers and delivered an often self-referential and highly political speech that included an untruthful claim that his inauguration was better attended than those of Barack Obama.

Don't go here. It's complete fake news. Watch the speech on Youtube. The CIA rank and file LOVE Trump. He got a standing O. All the "problems" have disappeared because the Obama stooges are gone.

The Guardian has avowed communists and socialists on the payroll and makes the New York Times and Washington Post look like WorldNetDaily.

Exactly. No way all those CIA folks were faking it. They love President DT and glad to get rid of the muslim who was holding them back from reporting the truth.

We've been on offense for the last 8 years.

Now we need to mount a good defense in support of our President.

I watched this speech earlier tonight on YouTube, and I concur, this was genuine admiration these CIA personnel had for Trump. The standing O at the end was beautiful!

Did you mean to switch the words ‘offense’ & ‘defense’?

Absolutely, right. The coin of the realm, today, is “clicks”. Modern Journalism: If the truth don’t get ya “clicks”, then ya make stuff up until you get ‘em.

The media really has become all lies, all of the time.

I think we should continue the offense, and keep on offending the snowflakes.

..eh..don't think so. We have been on The Kenyan's case for the past 8 years.

Now we need to defend our President against all enemies - foreign and domestic.

Right, Guardian!

The CIA rank and file were applauding wildly because they were “feuding” with President Trump. Lol!

Who was so pizzed about the speech there, was Bungling Brennan! He must have cried all the way to the CNN studios, for them to carry his water, of course, they NEVER named the source.

Leave it to the Guardian (hammer and sickle) to find a cloud in every silver lining. Pure narrative.

Glad to hear all the support for President Trump by CIA employees.

Agreed . . . to me it appears to be a coordinated attack with the cooperation of CIA Chief John Brennan. Brennan of course the "source" of the criticism

The following link to CNN shows Jake Tapper and Jim Sciutto talking down (tripling down on stupidity) President Trump and then showing a video of of the speech contradicting everything they just said. Kinda hillarious

President Trump's speech was well recieved

Honestly? I think we are going to have to walk and chew gum at the same time.

The media is OUT OF CONTROL. It is not too much to ask for FACTS and SOURCES.

These people give voice to a real anti-American element that is growing and dangerous, even seditious.

NO WAY do we stop exposing the Media sedition, lies and incitement to injure our president and our Republic.

Churchill’s nemesis did that. Look what it led to.

I think you’re right.
They’ve been chafing under the Kenyanesian Usurper’s muslim Director, not even allowed to identify the enemy.

My take is ‘former’ CIA operatives, and ‘former’ British intel agents, are the source. One ‘former’ CIA operative even ran for president, out of UTAH.
