Now that 77-year-old former Vice President and Democrat nominee Joe Biden finished his acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention last night, the DNC followed up with a letter from 70 former GOP intel officials denouncing Trump’s foreign policy. These are intel officials that gave you the Iraq War, Obama’s eight-year Saudi-led proxy war against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and backed toppling Libyan Col. Muammar Gaddafi, sending Libya and surrounding North African states into terrorism hell. Yes, those same intel officials participated under 64-year-old former CIA Director John Brennan and 79-year-old former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper in the illegal counterintelligence investigation of Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign. “We are profoundly concerned about the course of our nation under the leadership of Donald Trump,” the open letter wrote.
Many of the intel officials signing on to the open letter denouncing Trump are under investigation by 70-year-old Atty. Gen. William Barr and 70-year-old U.S. Atty. John Durham (R-Conn.), currently working with a grand jury to determine criminal liability for investigating Trump’s 2016 campaign. Those same intel officials denouncing Trump readily backed 72-year-old former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s paid opposition research AKA “the Steele Dossier,” a compendium Russian disinformation but, more importantly, pure fabrication by Steele, a former MI6 agent, who made up rubbish for Hillary against Trump, then proceeded to delete all his so-called “underlying sources.” Whatever flimsy sources of “intel” Steele used, they were most likely self-fabricated lies about Trump, alleged, unproven ties to the Kremlin, something disproven by the 22-month, $40 million Special Counsel investigation.
Yes, the disgruntled intel community denounced Trump because he’s exposed them as frauds, that spent four years backing the Russian hoax, making wild accusations against a sitting president. Whether admitted to or not, the intel community, certainly federal law enforcement under the FBI, has been corrupted by politics, working day-and-night to defeat Trump in the Nov. 3 presidential election, just like they did in 2016, that ultimately backfired. Hillary blamed everyone for her loss, except herself. She certainly blamed Russian President Vladimir Putin. Biden’s speech last night slammed Trump for cozying up to America’s enemies, like Putin, something he vowed not to do. Like former President Barack Obama, Biden’s committed to an eventual confrontation militarily with the Russian Federation, something that would have catastrophic consequences for the U.S. and international community.
Trump has “gravely damaged” the intel community’s credibility, not, as the letter said, U.S. national security. Trump questioned the Iraq War as a candidate, directly confronting former President George W. Bush’s judgment, while he battled former Gov. Jeb Bush (R-Fl.), whose family was all in the Iraq War. All of Bush’s men, including 83-year-old former Secretary of State Colin Powell, 75-year-old former CIA Director Michael Hayden and 73-year-old former Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel, all backed the Iraq War, though Hagel finally saw the light too late. Yet, the former intel community despises Trump because his administration has kept the U.S. out of more wasteful Mideast Wars, something Obama and Biden didn’t do. Biden doesn’t want to talk about backing for eight years the Saudi-led proxy war against al-Assad, spending billions of taxpayer money on a complete failure.
After watching his campaign wiretapped by 60-year-old former FBI Director James Comey and the national security community, Trump doesn’t have much trust for the FBI or intel community. Saying Trump “solicited foreign influence,” the letter beats a dead horse after 75-year-old former FBI Director Special Counsel Robert Mueller said otherwise March 23, 2019. Saying Trump “aligned himself with dictators,” the letter offers no proof only wild allegations. Was Trump supposed to continue the Cold War strategy of Obama, itching for confrontation? Trump kept that country out of any foreign military involvements over the last four years. Trump “undermined the rule of law,” read the open letter, more a political document written by the DNC. Who undermined the rule of law, watching Obama’s White House and intel community illegally wiretap Trump 2016 presidential campaign?
When you look at the so-called open letter, it reads no differently than a composite of all the vitriolic attacks at the DNC convention against Trump. If it’s really written by intel officials or military leaders, where’s the line between politics and the wild allegations? “Joe Biden has the character, experience and temperament to lead this nation,” read the letter, not talking about how he enriched his 50-year-old son Hunter while serving as Obama’s point-man on Ukraine. Biden’s character is perfect for the intel community that backed the Iraq War, Syria War and Libyan War, spreading terrorism around the Middle East, creating the worst humanitarian crisis since WW II. Yes, Trump ruffled the feathers of the status quo exactly as he promised campaigning tin 2016, to so-called “clear the swamp.” Trump’s found out the hard way what happens when you rock the boat and it’s not pretty.
