MICHAEL MORELL - The worst type of CLOWN. Political and Evil.
As Politico's Susan Glasser put in a newly published interview, Morell "has emerged out of the shadows of the Deep State" to become one
of Trump's foremost critics speaking within the intel community. litico Politico summarizes the interview as follows:
In a revealingly self-critical and at times surprising interview for this week’s Global POLITICO, Morell acknowledges that he and other
spy-world critics of the president failed to fully “think through” the negative backlash generated by their going political. “There was a
significant downside,” Morell said in the interview.
Not only had Morell during his previous NYT op-ed stated that he was committed to doing "everything I can to ensure that Clinton is elected
as our 45th president" but he went so far as to call then candidate Trump "a threat to our national security" - while making the
extraordinary claim that "in the intelligence business, we would say that Mr. Putin had recruited Mr. Trump as an unwitting agent of the
Russian Federation."
Curiously, Morell in his latest Politico interview indicates when asked about his "public profile" and activism so soon after leaving the
agency (something that was relatively unusual prior to Trump taking office) that his post-retirement media appearances have been
approved and/or received some level of oversight by the CIA. In the interview Morell states, "I did a 60 Minutes interview about my life
inside CIA, and it’s something the agency thought that was a good thing to do, and I taped most of it before I left the agency."
While such CIA review of former employees' publications and media interaction is nothing new, in Morell's case was an unprecedented
example of a very high profile intelligence figure explicitly campaigning for a presidential candidate and against another while
specifically invoking his role at the CIA (he began his NYT column with, "During a 33-Year career at the Central Intelligence Agency,
I served presidents of both parties — three Republicans and three Democrats…" followed by a litany of key national security EVENTS he was CENTRAL to. ( 911? )
