One reason it was put in quotes was because he was on that TV show (same name) in a segment jumping out of an airplane with a parachute. Get it? And "SIGINT" (with the cia.gov link) kinda tells us what happened, and didn't happen. Q has confirmed the R-post more times than I can count. Officially: denies. Unofficially: shouts it from the rooftop.
I've watched this 3 times now. Doesn't get old. Leftist guy with the TDS is almost "demon possession" level crazy.
