The 2020 Intelligence Community Assessment focused on foreign election influence will be delayed, Fox News has learned, amid a dispute between senior intelligence analysts over whether China sought to influence the election.

"This afternoon the DNI was notified by career intelligence officials that the Intelligence Community will not meet the December 18 deadline, set by Executive Order and Congress, to submit the IC’s classified assessment on foreign threats to the 2020 U.S. elections," Amanda Schoch, Assistant DNI for Strategic Communications said in a statement to Fox News

Wait for it, the silver bullet is coming any time now. Do I need to say it? It’s a sucker’s game and I’m tired of playing.

This is disgusting.

The “Intelligence” Community should let me help them. I can complete the write-up tonight.

SUMMARY
We are UNDER ATTACK by the Chinese Communist Party.
Biological warfare (duh!)
Psychological warfare (media)
Information warfare (election theft)
Cyber warfare (Controlling Big Tech social media is the ULTIMATE HACK.)
Intelligence warfare (infiltration, espionage, bribery, blackmail, moles etc.)

See?
NOT HARD AT ALL.
Just DO YOUR DAMN JOBS!

So let me see if I’ve got this right... when there’s no evidence, except a fictitious dossier paid for by a POS Demonic politician, these agencies allow for the lie to move forward and investigations run amok, but when there is actual evidence of the same, delay and obfuscate until they can run out the clock on the President.

Wouldn’t this activate the related 2018 EO?

Of course.

The Deep State was not going to let us re-elect President Trump, no matter what.

Yes, and I noticed the CBS crawl attempted to undermine the story, but that’s par for the course. The fire has been lit. Public report will be out in January, but I’m sure Trump has the report now.

indeed, CBS had headline:

Ratcliffe: No evidence adversaries are changing vote

PLUS

Herridge says Ratcliffe told CBS he is anticipating a public report in January!

I bet it is the same intelligence offices that said Trump colluded with the Russians.

“Some analysts claim that China’s efforts were “minimal”

Like saying the Japanese carriers Akagi, Kaga, Sōryū, Hiryū, Shōkaku, and Zuikaku only played a “minimal” role in bombing Pearl Harbor.

John Ratcliff, DO YOUR DUTY SIR!

Ms. Herridge mentions a public report for January. Doesn’t mean that Trump won’t get internal report Friday, 12-18.

Corrections, insights welcome.

An intelligence official with experience in analytic disputes told Fox News that "proper analytic tradecraft would stipulate that when there are competing views like this, that both views should be captured in the report."

This sounds like both views should be expressed in the report which is due by the 18th. Is Ratcliffe like most Republicans… Just run out the clock. Later the article he says he’s hoping if there is a Biden administration that national security will be less politicized. Duh! Complete Cave-in by Republicans is considered working together.

The first 45 days was for the assessment, that ends 12/18/2020. The second 45 days in the EO is for the report, that ends on 2/4/21.
