Declassified Congressional Report: Yes, James Clapper Leaked to Jake Tapper About the Russia/Dossier Briefing and Then Lied to Congress About It
Let me add in my own "finding:" Clapper was going to continue lying about this until the specificity of the question -- Did you leak to Jake Tapper, specifically? -- suggested to him that Congress knew and had him in a perjury trap if he continued to lie.
So at that point, he said "Oh right, now that you mention it..." Are we to believe he'd previously forgotten?BA-BOOOM (https://t.co/Qmgpcn0nBW) pic.twitter.com/BlMq2C0HK2
— Mollie (@MZHemingway) April 27, 2018
From Sean Davis:
Buried within a newly declassified congressional report on Russian meddling in the 2016 U.S. elections is a shocking revelation: former Director of National Intelligence (DNI) James Clapper not only leaked information about the infamous Steele dossier and high-level government briefings about it to CNN, he also may have lied to Congress about the matter. In one of the findings within the 253-page report, the House intelligence committee wrote that Clapper leaked details of a dossier briefing given to then-President-elect Donald Trump to CNN’s Jake Tapper, lied to Congress about the leak, and was rewarded with a CNN contract a few months later. "Clapper flatly denied 'discussing[ing] the dossier [compiled by Steele] or any other intelligence related to Russia hacking of the 2016 election with journalists,'" the committee found. When asked directly whether he had ever discussed the dossier with any journalists, Clapper replied that he had not, according to a transcript of the proceedings:Clapper was then hired as a CNN national security commentator. Remember, CNN was looking for a "news hook" -- this is straight from Comey's mouth -- to report on the dossier. Did Tapper mention that to Clapper? Did Clapper then contrive this whole briefing, which he could leak to his future employer, as the exact "news hook" CNN was looking for? I'm 99% certain that's exactly what happened. And I've been saying so for more than a year. My only question is whether Brennan and Comey also understood the purpose of this briefing was not to inform the president, but to deliver CNN the news hook it needed to report the fake dossier paid for by Clinton. Were they co-conspirators, or just Clapper's dupes?The former DNI later changed his story after he was confronted specifically about his communications with Jake Tapper of CNN. "Clapper subsequently acknowledged discussing the 'dossier with CNN journalist Jake Tapper,' and admitted that he might have spoken with other journalists about the same topic," the report continued. “Clapper’s discussion with Tapper took place in early January 2017, around the time IC leaders briefed President Obama and President-elect Trump, on 'the Christopher Steele information,' a two-page summary of which was ‘enclosed in’ the highly-classified version of the ICA," or intelligence community assessment.
MR. ROONEY: Did you discuss the dossier or any other intelligence related to Russia hacking of the 2016 election with journalists? MR. CLAPPER: No.

Not that it matters. As noted by others, Clapper had already been caught in an audacious lie to Congress on a very grave matter (surveillance of Americans), with zero consequences.

Ir is generally understood to be an acronym for infrared. The name infrared comes from the Latin word infra, meaning "below", since infrared light has a longer wavelength (i.e. below) that of red light.
Sir William Herschel, an amateur astronomer famous for the discovery
of Uranus in 1781, discovered infrared in the early 19th century.
Yet serendipitous another crossing of AoSHQ memes.

May we all agree that Comey is an idiot? May we all agree that Hillary doesn't care how a thing is done by subordinates, only that it (whatever it might be) is done. Sid Blumenthal was probably her go-between on the Fusion GPS business--either him or that former CIA guy on her payroll whose name escapes me right now.
Obama and Valerie Jarrett have been (and are) extraordinarily careful when it comes to plausible deniability. Obama would never give a direct order to suborn an election or subvert a sitting President to a subordinate--especially someone as devious and double-dealing as Clapper and/or Brennan.
So who'll squeal? I'd bet on McCabe. He's the lowest in the hierarchy in this little cabal. Besides, he looks like a squealer. He's got that John Dean look going on.

OTOH -- Wouldn't that be quite the fucking coincidence though if Trump actually paid for hookers to piss on a bed? I mean, the chances that Hillary's campaign makes up a story out of thin air, and that story ends up being true?!
That would be amazing.

But you're right, my Troll-curious friend in assuming that not a single Trump voter would care if Trump banged a porn star 10 years ago, or if he hired prostitutes to pee on a hotel room bed.
I feel fairly certain that if PDT had wanted pee on the bed that SCOAMF slept in, he'd do it himself.
At this point, I just don't care what he may or may not have done. If it wasn't that outrageous claim, Her Heinous would've concocted something else equally as ridiculous.

Regardless of who he is, even before Trump came along and they went NeverTrump, I've said the guy is basically a liberal plant. Very obvious to me at least.
It's a shame something like HotAir can't be good because it's a great way to be an aggregator for political news.
It seems to me it's a pretty easy formula to just have writers that reflect your audience. 99% of conservatives want to see Trump succeed and aren't still fighting the 2016 primary.

Yeah. Stanford, MIT, CMU, UCSB, Berkeley, they all have a massive washout rate in freshman year STEM. If Virginia Tech was any indication, the CS and Chem E. freshman washout rate was about 30 or 40 percent, so the top-tier schools are probably at least that stringent.

There's a racket with these books where attendees to a political event have to buy the book as part of admission and/or the hosts agree to buy X books and give them out to attendees. IIRC, they also have had political organizations buy up a lot of these books when they first come out to push up sales numbers.
There are many scams that ensure that the publisher doesn't lose money, and are essentially being reimbursed for the big advances paid out.

I have little doubt that that which he doesn't do intentionally to mislead/lie is done subconsciously because of ego.

There's a theory that there was a previous explosion near Krakatoa, that may have been 10 times as large, at about that time.
saw one piece once on why the island explosion are so huge - it has to do with the way volcanoes have a large magma chamber under the surface supplying them. The volcano blows all the magma out, the chamber is emptied, the weight of the ocean water and overburden collapses it, and instantly a cubic mile or so of seawater becomes superheated steam, resulting in an explosion about the size of the Tsar Bomba, or bigger.

I though to myself two things when I read this:
1. I do not recall Trump denying he was overnight in Moscow. Reading into the story this was a statement made up by Comey in one of his "memos" of his meetings with the President where Trump said "his head barely hit the pillow" when he was in Moscow. Well - reading further, the story confirms that the flight and other records records show he left New York on Thursday, arrived mid to late morning Moscow time on Friday - did a full day's work, went to his room, left his room the next morning (Saturday), spent the day and evening working on the Miss Universe Pageant, attended, briefly the after party that (Saturday Night) then got on a plane at 4:00AM in the morning that overnight to get back to New York. So, in other words, his head barely hit the pillow. He was in Moscow just barely over about 40 hours. Not exactly time to coordinator a multiple hooker pee fest in his hotel, certainly not realistically, even assuming he was so inclined to do something so completely out of character ( Women let me grab them by the pussy, cause I'm rich) and work the Miss Universe Pageant, along with all his other work. The I also thought:
2. Trump flew 11 to 12 hours, landed late Friday morning in Moscow, arranged a full blown hooker party in his room for that day/eve, complete with golden showers etc. ( in advance because he skillfully arranged to do all this in Obama's room) then undertook the production and hosting/oversight of the Miss Universe Pageant the next day, blew off the doors at the rocking after party and still made his flight back to New York City out of Moscow Airport at 4:00am Saturday overnight? My God, I thought to myself, if that is what happened this guy Trump is one hell of a badass!

Good for her and good on you.
In my senior year i was taking with a guy that graduated a few years before. He had just bought a house. He gave me some great advice for after graduating, "Live like you are still in school." It stuck and that continued sacrifice paid off bigly.

I have too say this about my son. He's never asked for a lot of material things. He doesn't have an entitlement mentality-except for college. He's bummed out we're not sending him to a four year school right away.
Oh, yes, he would like his own car-even a clunker that is drivable would do, but I won't ask the horde for that. :^)

And it's a bitch, ain't it? I was running my own business and I simply couldn't graduate in just 4-years. Post-collegiate life was an actual relief. I even worked fraternity life into the schedule - AKA sanctioned partying - and I can't say it relieved the stress though it had it's entertaining moments.
But seriously, real college life ain't no picnic. Oh, maybe to Trust Fund activists and legacy placements, it can be Animal House. For the vast majority of students it's a pretty taxing time. I think it's just more pleasant to reminisce about that one panty raid than it is the late-night cramming sessions all hopped up on caffeine and candy-bars.

Trump simple pulled a page out of the Ronald Reagan book. In the height of the cod war, Reagan used to order the B-52's to line up on the runway, one after the other. Possibly while the Soviet satellites were passing directly overhead.
He wanted the Soviets to shit their pants.
What did Trump do? How many nuke carriers off the coast? How many B-2 flights directly pointed at the Norks? He told them, in effect, you want war? We'll give you war.
Sometimes people really, really don't want war when they actually have to consider the consequences of an opposition prepared to give it to them.

From a biographical sketch of Henry Gilman, chemistry professor at Iowa State:
"The complaints of Gilman's students of those days center on three specific aspects of his behavior. First the unremitting pressure on them to work all and every day, and to produce results each day; second the low stipends he paid them; and third, and the most important, the length of time, and the uncertainty of its duration, that they were normally required to stay before receiving their Ph.D. degrees.
"The students certainly had no opportunity to slack. Gilman went around his laboratories three times each day, in the morning, afternoon and evening, questioning each student in turn about what he had done since his last visit, what he was now doing, and what he intended to do next. When a project was at an especially interesting stage the student concerned would be questioned on all three visits. Gilman remembered exactly what he had been told on the previous visit and so the hours in between had to be accounted for. The initial questioning usually took the form 'What's new?' and the answer was followed by the question 'What else is new?' and the answer to that by the further question 'And what else?'. One of his students from those days has written: 'Always we would begin to think that we had done very little. The cunning ones soon realized that you should keep some results up your sleeve to report next week in order to make your achievements seem more impressive.'
"He did not visit the laboratory every Sunday, but did so sufficiently often that the students could not risk being absent that day. At all times students in the laboratory were expected to be giving their full attention to experiments in progress, and those caught seizing an opportunity to study for graduate course or preliminary examinations were sharply reprimanded. They had some chance to get away with such study, however, because throughout his research career he tried to avoid coming upon embarrassing situations by shuffling his feet loudly outside the laboratory to give warning of his arrival. Gilman himself frequently stayed in the building until after 10 p.m. and then went home to work until after midnight reading or writing. During the whole of his career, except at the time of his eye operation, he was rarely, if ever, away from Ames for more than a week or so at a time, and when he did go away he told no one, not even his secretary, when he would be back, so that his students could not risk taking a day off.
"As for the stipends he paid, he fixed the amounts by working out carefully exactly the minimum sum on which each student could manage. This had the secondary advantage of leaving them little to spend on leisure activities which might have kept them away from the laboratory. Someone who worked for him as postdoctoral fellow in the 1940s has told of how, in fixing his salary, Gilman asked him whether soap was provided free in his lodgings, and made an appropriate allowance when told that it was not.
"The majority of the graduate students took 5-7 years to get their degrees, at a time when in other universities three years was still usual. Some were required to stay even longer; at least one is known to have taken ten years (and he, tragically, was killed in a fall from a ladder before leaving Ames) and some abandoned the attempt after a lengthy stay."

We took our refuge high in the mountains. We were even suspicious of alpine lakes. We rejoiced when fish was on the menu because we became stronger as they got weaker. Our days were bleak, but we found our moments of joy. I busied myself by selling handmade harpoons. I engraved slogans on each one.

That I know to be true. And years ago I heard something about bagged lettuce that has been washed should really be washed after it comes out of the bag. Which rather defeats the whole purpose, it seems. I can't remember the reason now, but it was convincing. The final advice was to buy the unbagged, that it was safer.
I don't even like lettuce much, but feel I should be eating it. Maybe it doesn't matter. Maybe I get the same benefits from cucumbers and other veges.

A. Have the DOJ file charges.

Where did people get the idea that the word "journalist" denotes something so special. It's just someone who writes in a journal, whether it's your 8 yr old daughter writing in her diary or a paid writer for a journal, i.e., magazine or newsrag.
By extension it is given to TV and radio (and internet) peeps.

What he is not is a reporter. To "report" implies a certain objectivity and subservience to facts.

Not just because of the scheming and lying and being above the law and all the chicanery, but because of their sheer incompetence.
Talk about an uncontested layup. They had all of the Deep State apparatchik at their disposal, including FBI, CIA, NSA, IRS, Justice Dept., ClintonCo., etc. and all they had to do was come up with something halfway feasible to turn public sentiment against Trump. Which shouldn't be hard. At all.
But instead, they cook up this scheme to forge an "intelligence report", and then use high-level bureaucrats to leak it to the press. And they fuck it up and are petardedly-hoist by their own staggering ineptitude.
