INTELLIGENCE ASSESSMENTS
R. A. Schultz
The "Intelligence Community" is a large part, the actual size as yet unknown, of the Deep State. Its products, known as intelligence assessments, are only rarely backed up by hard evidence, and therefore CANNOT be completely trusted. Make-Believe Media reports of these assessments will invariably suggest that they represent “conclusions” of the intelligence community. They do not. They are merely what they say they are: assessments. An assessment is usually, at best, the combined educated guesses of several analysts.
Intelligence assessments are graded by the degree of confidence assigned to each assessment, e. g., “We regard this assessment with a high degree of confidence,” or, “We regard this assessment with a very high degree of confidence.” This gives the community an “out” whenever (and that’s pretty often) they’re wrong.
Unfortunately for We the People, a lot of our “representatives” in Congress simply lack familiarity with the mumbo-jumbo of intelligence, and therefore all too many of them swallow the Make-Believe Media line. A prime example: “All seventeen member agencies of the intelligence community have concluded . . .” when, in fact, only THREE member agencies had ASSESSED with a HIGH DEGREE OF CONFIDENCE, that Russia had “meddled” in the U. S. electoral process.
Russian “meddling” evidently consisted of hacking into voter registration rolls and absorbing information. There is absolutely no evidence that anything ANYBODY did (Frankly, I suspect it wasn’t the Russians) had any effect on the outcome of the election. HILLARY LOST! Get the hell over it, snowflakes.
Now put into the mix the extreme political bias so blatantly displayed by intelligence community member FBI Big-High Mucky-Muck Peter (“Smirky”) Strzok, and one can easily appreciate why a national leader might regard intelligence products with suspicion. Could the intelligence community be furnishing the leader with faulty assessments? Could this be their “insurance policy?”
As to Mueller’s most recent twelve indictments, I’m still not convinced the names weren’t lifted at random from the Moscow phone book! Mueller is such a d!ck.
