If you're a Trumper you may want to skip this thread. Esp if you want to downplay the threats of White Supremacy and insist that Russian involvement in promoting Trump is a hoax...

For anyone who wants to have a serious discussion, this Sun morning appearance by Brian Murphy who retired from DHS last week after originally transferring from the FBI to DHS in 2018 sheds new light on how Trump attempted to turn the intelligence community into his private fiefdom...

Murphy describes himself as "apolitical" in terms of how he did his job. He is a Republican, who actually voted for Trump in 2016, and joined DHS in 2018 and was jolted by the Administration's interference which he was totally unprepared for. Specifically within 6 mos he had filed whistleblower reports on what he characterized as Trump Administration attempts to manipulate intelligence data on 3 critical areas the Border, Putin's efforts to promote Trump and denigrate the Dem contenders in 2020 and White Supremacy. According to Murphy, it was made clear to him by his superiors that this info was not to be made available to the public, and that the info should be manipulated in order to make Trump look better.

Now I honestly never heard of Murphy prior to watching this video. His complaints were internal memos and IG reports, and they weren't designed to make him a public figure or gain notoriety. And when you listen to him and how well prepared he is, he comes across honest and forthright.

In comparison to the people who try to attack his credibility (Trump and various Admin officials tied to Trump like Chad Wolfe), there's really no contest between who comes off as honest and who radiates dishonesty. And he certainly nails the role of disinformation, which Trump even bragged about in one of his sit down interviews with Rucker and Leonnig for their book (I alone can fix it)...

 
a Republican with the balls to tell the truth. Just more confirmation of what sane people already knew.
