Grenell had the full authority of his position and used it. Just because you are acting does not mean one can't use the full powers of the position.

Are you aware that Grenell reorganized the DNI? Are you aware that Grenell did so much that after the reorganization, Adam Schiff sent him a letter telling him that he should no longer exert his authority since he was only acting? Grenell tweeted his response: Imagine being in a position and then not doing your job.

The only reason the committee and the senate approved him so quickly was because they wanted Grenell out asap. He made them nervous, especially with his eagerness to declassify and publish.

“I hope he’s as badass as Grenell.”

I dont think you should use “ass” describing Grenell, as he is a fag.

Bad ass? Why do you think they confirmed Ratcliffe?

They found out that Grenell did not hold back, he just acted. Best outcome, Ratcliffe takes charge and first order of business is turn Grenelll loose on them.

Seriously, where does Trump place Grennell? Don’t say FBI, he is not a lawyer or in law enforcement.

“..Grenell should be the next FBI director...”

Agreed. He’s a f***ing Bulldog, and needs to be where he can do the most damage to the Left.

Me, too.

Grennell is a bad @ wolverine. Let’s hope that Ratcliffe is at least a honey badger.

I hope he makes Grenell look like a wimp. Some serious house cleaning is long overdue. And the spook trade requires regular house cleaning.
