Director of national intelligence threatened to resign if not allowed to speak freely to Congress

From the Washington Post

Parsed the headline because it's too long for ATS.

The acting director of national intelligence threatened to resign over concerns that the White House might attempt to force him to stonewall Congress when he testifies Thursday about an explosive whistleblower complaint about the president, according to current and former U.S. officials familiar with the matter.

What a mess this country is in. President Donald 'I can do everything by myself' Trump has. yet another 'acting director.' I'm not even going to mention the whistle blower or the impeachment or any of that. Just the fact that this is the ump-teenth time I've seen 'acting director' in a headline because Trump either can't find anyone 'loyal' enough or just assumes he can run the government on his own.

Have at it folks. I'm sure this is just more deep-state voodoo to you.

Fake news.

Disputed literally minutes after the leftist liberal propaganda site pushed it out, citing the all too familiar, The WaPo story cited anonymous current and former officials “familiar with the matter.”, which is code for made up sources.

“At no time have I considered resigning my position since assuming this role on Aug. 16, 2019. I have never quit anything in my life, and I am not going to start now,” Maguire said in a statement minutes after WaPo’s story was published.

(Maguire er al).

Did you just read that one paragraph?

This should be in the LOL or hoax bin.

WaPo outright KNOWINGLY KNOWINGLY KNOWINGLY lied. Enemedia.

I thought this was fake news?

In any case, who cares they are being paid
by a fund that begs people to make stuff
up on Trump. Yeah, free cheese if you lie.

WaPo is a Leftist satire rag.
Who the # really pays to read that garbage?

HOAX BIN

It's time to hang these b@stards from the lampposts and start sending messages to the rest of them

If you actively and willingly try to subvert the US government with deliberate fake news to cause civil unrest, you are an enemy of the state

This is one sad little lie.

No where does it say he didn't threaten to resign. He's playing semantics because of public perception. Which is why The Washington Post is standing by the story.

But go ahead everyone, hang them from the lampposts. Eventually you all will have to take a look in the mirror at what you've become. Then again, it's probably what you have been all along..

This story got shot in the ass about 15 minutes after it was published 😎

Typical lefty trying to spin everything, pitiful.

The Washington Post and New York Times are about to be hit hard by several Spygate-related declassifications and reports. Keep that in mind when either of them make extraordinary claims.

Maguire denied that he had done so. In a statement, he said that “at no time have I considered resigning my position since assuming this role on Aug. 16, 2019. I have never quit anything in my life, and I am not going to start now. I am committed to leading the Intelligence Community to address the diverse and complex threats facing our nation.” The White House also disputed the account. “This is actually not true,” White House spokeswoman Stephanie Grisham said in a tweet. After these statements were issued, Washington Post Executive Editor Martin Baron said, “We stand by the story.”
