Pompeo Declines to Offer Proof that Assad Gassed His Own People, Say Putin is a Liar

Our new CIA director, Mike Pompeo, made a few comments today regarding claims by both Assad and Putin that the chemical attack in Idlib was staged.

He declined to provide proof that could put this debate to rest, saying ‘there are things that were used to form the base of our conclusions that we can’t reveal.’ Then he went on to discredit Putin, by pointing to previous instances when the Russian leader was less than forthcoming — such as eastern Ukraine and the Malaysian airliner incident.

Pompeo also discussed Julian Assange’s Wikileaks, saying: ‘This absurd definition would have all serious media organizations (with the exception of state owned media) transformed into ‘non-state intelligence services’– with the explicitly stated goal of stripping constitutional protections for publishers.’

Assange replied with a mic drop tweet.

    There sure is a lot of ‘not exactly proving things’ going around these days. You’d think they would have more respect for themselves and for us the American people.

      Anyone can get used by intelligence. That’s what they do, find someone who can lead and control them, it’s not that deep.

    This is a textbook lie in my opinion- he even licks his lips and touches his face at the end- Mattis on Assad’s involvement:

    APR 15….President Donald Trump will speak at the National Rifle Association’s annual convention on April 28, becoming the first U.S. president to address the gun-rights group since Ronald Reagan in 1983.

    MAGA

      Never mind that. Busting illegal aliens raping citizens and saving guns and fucking over murder centers by simply not wanting to pay for it. Those things mean nothing. 60 bombs fell and killed some bad guys. No more! We must stop ww3 and all become Commies get sex changes and do heroin fast. Life without pussy hats is not life.

    Good to see Trump kicking back in Mar a Lago (again) this time with no senior staff in attendance considering all that’s going on with Best Korea. Hey fat boy, this isn’t the time to start cost savings measures on your fucking travel expenses.

    I say this not for political reasons, only because it is amusing…
    Has anyone on TV or media used the line “Trump is MOAB, the mother of all bullies” ?
