Oh no! Politico tried to gin up some sympathy for U.S. intelligence community and the FBI this weekend with a completely tone-deaf story headlined, “The prospect of a second Trump presidency has the intelligence community on edge.” I bet it does.

According to Politico, the nation’s top spooks and some FBI agents are fretting about a potential Trump re-election. They worry that Trump might harbor a few hard feelings towards them, you know, over a few regrettable misunderstandings. They feel uneasy that Trump might not trust their intelligence assessments anymore since he might be viewing a few of their past decisions in the wrong light. Hilariously, the spies cited in Politico’s article are apprehensive that a re-elected Trump might do something reckless, like “reorganizing” them and thereby — get this — politicizing the spy agencies.

Don’t. Make. Me. Laugh. ...

Over halfway through the article, it finally gets around to mentioning a little detail called Russiagate, and muses over how Trump might still be smarting a little over the way the intelligence agencies, directed by Obama and Clinton, had persecuted him and lots of other citizens helping his campaign using a fake, made up dossier that the FBI never really intended anybody to believe, no; the story just sort of got away from them, that’s all.

Citing a long list of anonymous “intelligence community” critics, Politico eventually confessed to its biggest fear: that Trump might actually get around to punishing some deep state crooks:

“Trump intends to go after the intelligence community,” another former senior intelligence official said. “He started that process before and he’s going to do it again. Part of that process is to root out people and to punish people.”
Talk about being tone-deaf. Punishing people and rooting out the intelligence community is exactly what most of the country desperately wants. They want those things so much that, hilariously, this article could be a Trump campaign ad. What the Intelligence Community is probably really worried about is that, if Trump gets re-elected, he’ll enjoy a popular mandate to punish political partisans and root out the traitors deeply embedded in the intelligence community.

They seem to know that the media can’t save them this time. After everything that’s happened, most folks will either completely ignore or even delight in corporate media’s predictable, hysterical rants about how horrible Trump’s stable-cleaning is for democracy.

It’s just the opposite. Rooting out deep-state traitors is what is necessary for democracy.

And never forget, there’s a little lost Crossfire Hurricane binder out there somewhere and it is sure to turn up sooner or later…
