[QUOTE=Guest]CANBERRA, Australia --
James Clapper was director of national intelligence until Trump took office in January. He told Australia's National Press Club on Wednesday that the cover-up of a 1972 burglary at the Democratic Party national headquarters in the Watergate complex in Washington that ended Richard Nixon's presidency "was a scary time."

But he says the allegations under multiple investigations of Russian meddling in last year's presidential election are more concerning.

Why is Clapper telling this story to Australians? Does Australia have a role in rooting out this Russian "matter".

[QUOTE=Guest]I wondered the same thing about our President calling our FBI director a "nut job" and in front of ONLY the RUSSIAN spy chief and Russian government press

Clapper is , was a disgrace, a disaster. Look at his history

The laughs never stop! :1rotfl: :1rotfl:


Anyone critical of the Liar In Chief, is automatically labeled a 'nutjob'...except the real nutjob himself. :oops:


If the scumbag Chump would just quit lying with almost everything he says...half of his problems would go away. :ohdear:



Deepest Sincere Wishes: :wave:

Clapper the unmasking leaking piece of SHlT

IF true, then I would agree with your opinion of him.

Give it time.

Man, this is a worry. WITHIN ONE HOUR, the President is contradicting his Secy of State.

This is of great concern. Our allies and foes need to know the Secy of State is backed by the CINC.

"Trump had asked Tillerson to help mediate the crisis, and the secretary has been calling his counterparts in the region to "de-escalate" the situation and resolve their grievances. Tillerson's carefully crafted statement urges the emir of Qatar to do more to stem terrorist financing but adds that "others must also continue to eliminate factions of support for violent organizations within their own borders." He also pointedly asked Saudi Arabia and others to ease their blockade on Qatar.

Tillerson then went to the White House, where Trump seemed to contradict him, putting the focus squarely back on Qatar. At a joint news conference with his Romanian counterpart, Trump described his recent visit to Riyadh, where "nations came together and spoke to me about confronting Qatar over its behavior. So we had a decision to make. Do we take the easy road or do we finally take hard but necessary action?" he said, adding he decided "the time had come to call on Qatar to end its funding."

Qatar is the regional headquarters for U.S. Central Command and home to some 10,000 American troops, NPR's Scott Horsley has reported."
