Unbelievable. The Trump administration is in so deep with Russia.
The article goes on to say that, current and former U.S. intelligence officals have concerns about this meeting. They believe the the Kremlin could conclude, from this meeting, that the U.S. is open to forgiving them for meddling in our elections.
So let’s sum this up:
Head of CIA meets with Russian intelligence officials. Same country that meddled in our elections in the United States.
Donald Trump and the Republican Party are trying to discredit FBI and DOJ here in the United States.
You can’t make this stuff up. You really can’t.
Two top Russian spy chiefs traveled to Washington last week to discuss counterterrorism issues with CIA Director Mike Pompeo, but the unusual visit also raised concerns among some U.S. officials that Moscow could interpret the encounter as a sign the Trump administration is willing to move beyond the issue of election interference, current and former U.S. intelligence officials said.
Pompeo met with Sergey Naryshkin, the head of Russia's Foreign Intelligence Service or SVR, and Alexander Bortnikov, who runs the FSB, which is the main successor to the Soviet-era security service the KGB. The head of Russia's military intelligence, the GRU, also came to Washington, though it's not clear that he met with Pompeo.
A senior U.S. intelligence official based in Moscow was also called back to Washington for the meeting with the CIA chief, said a person familiar with the events, who, like others, spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the sensitive meeting.
But current and former U.S. intelligence officials said they couldn't recall so many heads of Russia's espionage and security apparatus coming to Washington at once and meeting with a top American official. They worried the Kremlin could conclude the United States is open to forgiving Russia for its actions and wasn't resolved to forcefully prevent future meddling.
