Clapper- That's our Story and we're Sticking to It!

[VySky]

That was Clappers response to National Security Agency Director Michael Rogers concern relative to the ICA and its unreliable intelligence as evidenced in recently released classified documents.

Rogers also had concerns about the "fast track" he was ordered to take in finishing the report.

Both of Rogers teams had these same concerns which is what warranted him to bring the issues to Clapper.

A key component is he told Clapper that in the future if what has come our present day (questioning the information) that he and his team wanted to be able to stand behind their assessment. As it stood, clearly he felt they could not.

If the report was just a CIA-only or CIA/FBI authored report he stated that he would "stand down".

But since this was to be a NSA co-authored product "I personally expect to see even the most sensitive evidence related to the conclusion,” Rogers commented.

To say there is no smoke here and nothing to see, move along, is pure intellectual dishonesty.

Key Clapper response to Rogers


"While writing that he “understand [Rogers’] concern,” Clapper stressed that it “is essential we (CIA/NSA/FBI/ODNI) be on the same page, and are all supportive of the report — in the highest tradition of ‘that’s OUR story, and we’re stickin’ to it.’”


===============================

Meanwhile, intelligence contradicting that “key judgement” was left out of the ICA.

The new records unveiled Wednesday document an apparent email exchange between Clapper and then-National Security Agency Director Michael Rogers about the ICA and its unreliable intelligence.

In his Dec. 22, 2016, message to Clapper, Brennan, and then-FBI Director James Comey, Rogers raised “some concerns” he had about the “fast-track” nature of getting the report finished, as well as the “underlying intelligence” being used in the “joint product related to Russian attribution and intent for the [Democratic National Committee/Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee] hacks.”

“I asked my team if they’d had sufficient access to the underlying intelligence and sufficient time to review that intelligence. On both points my team raised concerns,” Rogers wrote. “They were clear that, at the staff level, folks have been forward-leaning and trying to ensure that we have an opportunity to review and weigh in, but I’m concerned that, given the expedited nature of this activity, my folks aren’t fully comfortable saying that they have had enough time to review all of the intelligence to be absolutely confident in their assessments.”

me? Not much. Paid much less this year for baby back ribs than last summer. Today I paid the same for coffee than I did this time last year. Milk hasn't changed much. Gas at the pump is lower than last year....just paid $23.89/gallon.
How about YOUR grocery bill?
