Russia Backs Trump’s Re-election, and He Fears Democrats Will Exploit Its SupportA classified briefing to lawmakers angered the president, who complained that Democrats would “weaponize” the disclosure. WASHINGTON — Intelligence officials warned House lawmakers last week that Russia was interfering in the 2020 campaign to try to get President Trump re-elected, five people familiar with the matter said, in a disclosure that angered Mr. Trump, who complained that Democrats would use it against him. The day after the Feb. 13 briefing to lawmakers, Mr. Trump berated Joseph Maguire, the outgoing acting director of national intelligence, for allowing it to take place, people familiar with the exchange said. Mr. Trump cited the presence in the briefing of Representative Adam B. Schiff, the California Democrat who led the impeachment proceedings against him, as a particular irritant. During the briefing to the House Intelligence Committee, Mr. Trump’s allies challenged the conclusions, arguing that Mr. Trump has been tough on Russia and strengthened European security. Some intelligence officials viewed the briefing as a tactical error, saying that had the official who delivered the conclusion spoken less pointedly or left it out, they would have avoided angering the Republicans. That intelligence official, Shelby Pierson, is an aide to Mr. Maguire who has a reputation of delivering intelligence in somewhat blunt terms. The president announced on Wednesday that he was replacing Mr. Maguire with Richard Grenell, the ambassador to Germany and long an aggressively vocal Trump supporter. Complete article here: Russia Backs Trump’s Re-election, and He Fears Democrats Will Exploit Its Support I saw that. Wonder if Paul is happy Trump is escalating his paranoia? Paul is gearing up for the next series of Hurricanes caused by Global Warming, to make huge amounts of money for the insurance work!! Paul is smiling all the way to the bank!!

Intelligence agencies don't generally publish all their work product to the public. For super obvious reasons. And, they have given examples - you just chose not to even consider what they are saying. We should trust our intelligence agency !!! SURE Was it not John Brennan the lied thru his teeth about the intelligence gathering for regular Americans?? Before Congress??
Why is he not in jail,,, like Stone?? OH wait, that's right, Brennan hate Trump so it is OK for him not to be in prison!
You are throwing out the baby with the bath water. It really is a shame that you have lost faith in all government agencies, and only believe the one and only Trump. If every single agency is as broken as you say, we should dissolve the country. They aren't. But you believe they are.

Publicly and loudly condemn there...no more statements about how nice their top guys are and put harshest sanctions on them next to declaring war if they don't immediately cease and disseat.. for openers Boy that is going to scare Putin!! It's not about scaring..Putin has a responsibility and pressure on him from Russian citizens...his country has major problems...It is ageing with fewer younger folks having babies..citizens want a better standard of living...and they are not getting it.. The embargos as they are now are hurting Russia and the days of a hugh secret police and threat of sending folks off to Siberia if they object and demonstrate is gone..Beyond energy , gas and oil and arms...there is not much that others{countries} want to purchase..and they satellite Eastern countries are gone so those markets are now free to purchase for the best products and it isn't Russia. Oh ok, Borscht and some brands of Vodka possible, even the caviar from sturgeon's has fallen off because of water pollution

I wish you'd tell us why Trump hasn't fulfilled his promise of locking them all up. I know it is hard to think for yourself and not have Fox tell you. Because you can bet your bottom dollar if all that crap they spew is true, Trump would have them all locked up! He's been in office and have the people in place to see to it.

He is the ultimate authority and chief law enforcement officer (according to him). Why hasn't Barr investigated and prosecuted? It seems like such a slam dunk kinda case to some people, so it should be looked at!

You can't arrest people, that's not how conspiracy theories work!
