It becomes clearer.
The MI6 agent in question is the same one that cracked the Litvinenko polonium poisoning case and the FIFA corruption case. Hence the highly 'credible source' quoted in the press.
He passed this unverified intelligence on to the UK ambassador in Moscow who in turn gave it to John McCain. He then gave it to the FBI. It would have been passed around various staffers until it was leaked. Probably because it's funny and they all hate Trump.
Apparently, the 'golden' rule of espionage is you don't let folk 'see the strings' being pulled so somebody has crossed a line. Especially as the report was unverified.
So, a respected UK spy gets trashed. The FBI look like amateurs and the Russians are furious because it exposes what actually goes on in the world of international relations to an otherwise unaware public.
Trump holds a ludicrous press conference, the liberal left get accused of spreading fake news by Trumpers that spread the shite Breitbart and Live-leaks spew out.
So that's that sorted.
Oddly, it might actually turn out to be true. Which would be genuinely funny if a video gets out.
- Side thought. Given Buzzfeed and CNN were explicit that these were just allegations, do you think he overreacted? Or was his response measured?monoboy
- It definitely struck a nerve if you read his Tweets which makes me think he has either something to hide or lacks the ability to judge and handle a situation.monoboy
- literally, all of this. it's spot on.
and, i think it's both. he has something to hide while lacking the ability to judge and handle a situationkona - It's a worry.monoboy
- i noticed how in the past when something 'untrue' was said his immediate response was always 'i'm going to sue' here... he overreacts, is generous to givekona
- details, overshares details, used convoluted sentence structure and qualifying language, used negative tones and stalled.kona
- Yup, it properly rattled him. I wonder why...monoboy
- He's high on a feeling... da da da da da daaaaaaaaaa********
