Reports from official intel collection agencies in an operational theater to an operator described only as "there are indications that X, Y, Z will happen (etc)...." is under most circumstances sufficient for the operators. Is that enough for planners? Do operational planners need to know the "how" the information was obtained? I don't know since I was never a planner.

However, JMHO that the sensitive info that is being "leaked" (as opposed to withheld) is an act of treason and I'd vote to shoot the guilty asshats off the fantail and then dump trash.


US spies reportedly keeping intelligence from Trump

Sensitive intelligence is being withheld from President Trump by U.S. intelligence officials because they are reportedly concerned that the information could be compromised.

The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday that in some cases officials opted not to show the president how it collected the information. The paper, citing both former and current officials, said the decision to hold back information underscores the mistrust between the Executive Branch and spies.

Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee, said he has heard about these concerns in the past.

I know little to nothing about intel, but this 'news' reported by the WSJ sounds like another act in the impeach Trump theatre.

I am waving the bullshit flag. Just another hack to try and delegitimize Trump. BTW if he is so good at intel why is he blowing a secret like this.

What classified information did he leak?

But it seems like "American Intelligence" is still snug between the sheets with the Mossad. I'm wondering what it will take for the average American to jolt out of their stupor and realize that not everyone that takes your billions and calls you their best mate is actually your mate.

There is a mind boggling web of Special Interest Organisations in America that promote one thing for themselves and a complete other for America and has actually done nothing for America except get into controlling policy making positions in every facet.

The "Russia Hacked Our Elections" looks like the most blatant smokescreen over who is really trying to hack not just the presidency but the entire US.
