“Tulsi Gabbard, the director of national intelligence, is moving the assembly of the president’s daily intelligence brief from the CIA headquarters to her own complex,” the New York Times reports.

“The brief, a summary of intelligence and analysis about global hot spots and national security threats, is overseen and presented to the president by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. But CIA officers write much of the analysis in the document and produce it, pulling together articles and graphics on the agency’s classified computer systems.”


Applegrove: Putin must be unhappy with it coming from the CIA.

And this - she values loyalty to Trump over the facts where intelligence is concerned:
