Meant to write Clapper. And it wasn't Obama, but his former chief of staff. My mistake.
You need to up your insult game, btw.
DarrinS barely reads a thing, even his own posts. You know that.

No insult intended, offered as straightforward description.
What did the guy leak, Darrin?
Don't you read?
Just wondering why you care. Are you allergic to own takes?
the article didn't say.
IIRC they think he leaked one of the Carter Page FISA applications. You'd think Darrin would be happy about that.
It's important to maintain focus here. The important thing is that someone singled out by Trump went to jail, never mind that he (may have) leaked something Trump declassified anyway.
to be fair he did say "this story went under the radar"
i guess that included him
Well again, it's the lying that was prosecuted. I guess there might have still been grounds for prosecuting the leak since parts are still classified.
There’s increasing evidence showing how Russians ‘bought’ Trump — years before the election
The cache of evidence showing the ways Russia bailed Donald Trump out is growing — and it could soon spell trouble for the president
Foreign Policy reported that prior to 2016, the Trump family didn’t try to hide their debt to Russia.
Alan Lapidus, Trump’s former longtime architect, told FP in November that following the president’s financial troubles in the late 90’s and early 2000’s, he
“could not get anybody in the United States to lend him anything” — and
so all the money to fund his mid-2000s projects came “out of Russia.”
“His involvement with Russia was deeper than he’s acknowledged,”
much of the “overseas money” was given in real-estate deals and the purchase of condos.
“He was saying to himself,
‘What else could I do in the world? I’ll just convince people to buy my brand,'” the associate told FP.
“And the only people who were willing to buy it were tasteless Russians,
people who like the absurd,
ostentatious gold-leaf lifestyle he has.
You’re not going to sell that brand to blue bloods in Greenwich, Connecticut.”
“Trump was on the anic heading down,”
“Everyone’s drowning around him. …
Suddenly he gets saved.
It’s almost like a spaceship landed right next to where he was in the water.”
“By the time he ran for president, Trump had been enmeshed in this mysterious overseas flow of capital—
which various investigators believe could have included
money launderers from Russia and former Soviet republics
who bought up dozens of his condos—
for a decade and a half,”
“federal and congressional investigators are now focused on the Trump Organization as much as the president himself in probing alleged Russian influence.”
“Our broader concern is the extent to which the Trump Organization has received an influx of foreign sources of money over the years, and if that continues to compromise the president.”

Fox News' Judge Napolitano: Trump may have already been secretly indicted
Fox News contributor Judge Andrew Napolitano is not holding back in his dire predictions for President Donald Trump
https://www.salon.com/2018/12/18/fox...etly-indicted/
lol Whitaker going to end up a subject of an obstruction probe because Trump couldn’t shut up
At least we know Putin is having a great Christmas!

Per John Solomon: Flynn was on a clandestine mission when he went on Russia Today. Briefed DIA upon return.
This letter from Grassley about the classified briefing the DIA gave to the Judiciary Commitee makes more sense now.
Looking more likely by the day that Flynn Intel Group was a front for a DIA counterintelligence op.
Flynn confessed to lying, pleaded guilty
Does Grasseley think Mueller isn't already aware of this, if it's anything?
Should've told that to the counterintel FBI agents.
Or the DOJ lawyers.
Or Judge Contreras.
Or Judge Sullivan.
Why didn't he tell anyone, TSA?
DEEP STATE, VERY DEEP COVER
If the fact that corrupt senile Grassley is involved does not cause you to immediately disregard this new conspiracy hope - you are really hopeless.
Grassley using his position to obstruct investigations and cover crime for team trump is another American tragedy.
Grassley, Nunes, Jordan, Gaetz, DeSantis et al should all be investigated to see how much money the NRA funneled to them.
It’s official. We lost the Cold War.
Trump’s unraveling of the post-war order accelerated this week when he announced
a willy-nilly pullout from Syria,
leaving in the lurch scores of allies who participated in the campaign against the Islamic State,
throwing our Kurdish partners to the wolves,
isolating Israel, and
giving Russia and Iran free rein in the Middle East.
Then word emerged that Trump is ordering another hasty withdrawal, from Afghanistan.
the president’s estrangement of allies and emboldening of Russia and China.
we don’t need an alternative-history show to imagine a Soviet victory in the Cold War. We have Trump.
Mattis spelled out the views of his that are apparently not “aligned” with Trump’s:
“treating allies with respect,”
believing in the 29 NATO democracies (Trump has repeatedly raised questions about NATO’s utility);
respecting the 74-nation “defeat-ISIS coalition” (now to be abandoned in Syria); and
recognizing threats from China and Russia, which “want to shape a world consistent with their authoritarian model
. . . at the expense of their neighbors, America and our allies.”
a Soviet leader hardly could have outlined a better scenario than Trump has created for Putin:A rift between the United States and NATO allies over the future of the alliance.
A U.S. demand that Russia be returned to the Group of Seven , as Russia continues provocations in Ukraine.
A U.S. threat to pull out of the World Trade Organization, and a round of U.S.-imposed tariffs that severely weakened it.
A U.S. president abandoning human rights, accepting Saudi Arabia’s murder of a U.S.-based journalist and embracing repressive leaders around the globe.
A U.S. president creating a rift with Europe over Iran (the nuclear agreement) and climate change (the Paris accord).
A U.S. president embracing as “very honorable” North Korea’s brutal dictator without any tangible concessions on nuclear weapons.
A U.S.-launched trade war that, the Federal Reserve said this week, is partially responsible for cooling worldwide growth.
Lost confidence among Americans in elections, the Justice Department, the FBI, the courts and the free press.
And the loss of a bipartisan consensus against the Russian threat.
Forty percent of Republicans called Russia an ally or friend in a Gallup poll,up from 22 percent in 2014.
Trump accepted Putin’s word over that of U.S. intelligence agencies.
Trump has chafed at aides’ insistence on Russia sanctions, and
the few who could resist Trump’s pro-Putin instincts are gone: H.R. McMaster, Rex Tillerson, John Kelly and now Mattis.
29 years after the wall fell,
Trump is handing Moscow the Cold War victory
it could never win.
