Reading this makes me all-the-more surprised that they let Mike Johnson get his nose under the Gang of Eight tent. Even though Johnson will prohibited from spilling hard intel, Glitch, Marco and Turner have to be a little concerned about populist-side backlash when we learn (through the inevitable Washington trickles) about all the sketchiness they've been acquiescing in for this many years. That is, unless Johnson isn't the man we think he is.
I believe that in the past they've played rather fast and loose. What I mean is, Devin Nunes was kept out of the loop. But it's a whole 'nuther thing to pull that on the Speaker.
Ukrainian Pilots Start Training on the F-16 in Arizona
"A “small number” of Ukrainian pilots began training with the 162nd Wing of the Arizona Air National Guard earlier this week in “F-16 fundamentals,” according to a service spokesperson."
“The training curriculum will align with the foundational knowledge and skills of each pilot and is expected to last several months,” a U.S. Air Force spokesperson said in a statement provided to Air & Space Forces Magazine."
"when those proceedings start in the war crimes tribunals there will be names named"
The last thing the intel community err... enemy of the people want is the spotlight. Cowards and rats do their best work in the shadows and darkness. Looking forward to refurbishing and/or adding this offshoot to #SayTheirNames.
There isn't a prison bad enough for these "operatives" to rot in. Operating with no concern for a destroyed Ukraine, they follow the neocon code that the ends justify the means.
Thanks, Mark, and thanks Ray for the original link. The simplest explanation of the WaPo article was that it was a CIA CYA operation. But honestly that didn't even occur to me because the narrative they are putting forward is so blunt and so blatantly false.
Apparently our intelligence community thinks the general public is REALLY stupid. This does not inspire confidence in them, to say the least. If they do not understand the people they are supposed to be serving or the laws under which they are supposed to be serving them, what is there to instruct or limit their actions?
Well, self-preservation and self-empowerment are likely the agency's guiding principles - but as far as limits? Probably only that which they believe would detract from those principles.

True. I did actually check my calendar but, old eyes ...

I discuss the longstanding crimes against humanity of the CIA and other Western agencies, particularly the British, in my new book https://www.claritypress.com/product/our-country-then-and-now/
Richard, the point is, it's not "our" country. It's *their* country. :-(

And a destroyed USA
Nothing. I repeat nothing is “reported” in the WaPo that isn’t cleared by or directly fed by the various government three letter agencies.

Thanks - I was mystified on what the article was signaling.
