Donald Trump's constant dissing of the intelligence agencies is beginning to have an effect—and not in a good way. John Schindler, a former NSA analyst, has written a damning piece clearly stating that his contacts in the intelligence community are most unhappy with how things have gone in the first three weeks of the Trump administration. They find it very troubling that the head of the National Security Agency, Mike Flynn, discussed lifting the sanctions on Russia with the Russian ambassador to the U.S. and then lied about it to Vice President Mike Pence and everyone else. Schindler also confirms that at least some of the information in the 35-page report former British spy Christopher Steele wrote about how Russia has compromising information about Trump is true.

Worst of all, the intelligence community is scared shitless about how little the president cares about the President's daily briefing and how much the White House leaks. The spy agencies are beginning to think: "Why give the president critical secret information if he just ignores it and it is likely to leak out?" The idea of the NSA, which provides most of the information, holding back information from the president because it doesn't trust him is unprecedented and potentially harmful to the country if the president then makes decisions without knowing the facts.  

Schindler ends by saying sooner or later there will be an international crisis and "the White House will need the best intelligence possible to prevent war, possibly even nuclear war. It may not get the information it needs in that hour of crisis, and for that it has nobody to blame but itself."

.....anytime soon, not with the current crop of GOP spineless baboons now running the asylum.

If the GOP does not do anything.
They will be blamed for a cover up too!

..it's Party FIRST before Country for these folks. My ass has a greater chance of turning bright red, just like this Babboons ass, than House Republicans impeaching Trump.

being penetrated by Putin

...........however he is losing support among Independents, so his overall approval is around a historical low 40%. If Trump's overall approval dips even lower, he will be politically powerless and this Republican Congress will desert him.
