I turn on the tv tonight to check the news to see that we now know why Trump fired the DNI, due to intelligence reports Russia is ONCE AGAIN trying to interfere in the election. This is on CNN and MSNBC. I turn to Fox News, and know what they are talking about? They are showing clips of Trump at a campaign rally complaining about the Academy Awards and a South Korean movie winning best picture...
Jesus Christ. The HEAD OF NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE gets fired for reporting intel because Trump doesn't like... and Fox News is more worried about the Academy Awards.
It was the ACTING director.
Don't get your panties in a twist.
Who cares if it was the ACTING director. At least he had some intelligence experience. The new guy is nothing but a Trump shill that paid for an ambassadorship.
Let's do a little comparing on the qualifying of the two:
"Joseph Maguire (born August 14, 1951)
[1] is the former Director of the
National Counterterrorism Center and former acting
Director of National Intelligence. He retired from the
United States Navy as a Vice Admiral in 2010 after 36 years of military service.
[2] Prior to retiring from active duty, he was the Deputy Director for Strategic Operational Planning at
National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC).
[3] "
"
Richard Allen Grenell (born September 18, 1966) is the current
United States Ambassador to Germany. He previously served as U.S. spokesman under four ambassadors at the
United Nations.
Grenell served for a time as foreign policy spokesperson for
Mitt Romney in his
2012 campaign for President of the United States, becoming the first openly gay spokesperson for a Republican presidential candidate.
[1][2] "
Yes... you're right. Our country is in much better hands with this move.
It is amazing how hyper partisan that Trump supporters can be on such serious shit like this. We aren't talking about a press secretary job. This is the HEAD of U.S. National Intelligence.
