Are all of the Thursday night chats eventually posted on the web site?

Seems to be some gaps.

My schedule doesn't allow me to be available when they take place.

The ones I have heard are terrific and I'd very much like to get caught on at least some of what I've missed.

Thanks.

I agree I am in Scotland and cannot listen live and some of the Thursday calls are not being uploaded it seems, they are very valuable.

The term "intelligence community" is a euphemism. They are something far more sinister than people who merely collect intelligence.

Cabinet nominees can lose 3 Republican votes in the Senate, because the Vice President can break a tie.

I tried to join the meeting and received a Zoom error message telling me that the meeting was full. It's incredible to see the interest Trump's order has generated.

Christopher's insights are a great asset! Being very deaf from too many rock concerts and Covid, I greatly appreciate that Jeff provided a transcript of Christopher's comments.

I read an article recently about the DNI. I wish I had saved it

It was from a very reputable investigative reporter who has written for many years on the intelligence community

He said the DNI has no actual job description and if you asked former ones they would tell you that. He cited Clapper, I think, as an example

Probably the biggest thing they do is compile reports and take them to the president. We know Trump doesn’t read them

Gabbard has much bigger problems with her Assad relationship and regurgitating Putin talking points

Gabbard never had a "relationship" with Assad. She committed the crime of talking to an adversary. We should be talking to all our adversaries unless we want endless war.

Not everything that comes out of an adversary's mouth is untrue. Is admitting what is true "repeating a talking point?". Is a "talking point" anything other than something that contradicts our government's narrative?

If there's a problem with Gabbard, it's consistency.

Gabbard was on the intelligence committee

She talked with Assad in 2017. She went on her own. It was not a scheduled trip and it was not part of Congressional trip

I’m going to speculate she didn’t know some of things the administration was doing

This is not good as she was not officially approved to go there

She held the title on Congressional Representative. This blurs the line of whether she is official or not

This is why they passed the Logan act. While she didn’t break it the act was put in place also to discourage this type of behavior

The only reason we even had troops there was to combat ISIS, really nothing to do with israel

I’m sorry I meant Syria

George W once said about the Middle East, “I have low expectations. That way they are met”.

Trump doesn’t care a thing about signed commitments promises etc. the law the constitution etc. All of those mean nothing

As far as Tucker Carlson he has no integrity. His followers would believe it if they found the Loch Ness monster in Lake Eeri

My father used to say if wishes were horses beggars would ride

Ronald Reagan said Trust but verify

I can only be conned if I allow myself to be

I will be pleasantly surprised if something does happen

How’s it going to be any different this time

I can tell by what is happening here on my end I have attracted someone's attention.

Not being able to access comments for Lawrence P. Schnapf Jan 25, 2025 is a sure sign.

Your discussion here is undoubtedly drawing great interest from some of your adversaries.

You are aware we are all involved in making history currently. No matter how it is cut!
