A short 2019 clip of Chuck Schumer's January 2017 warning to Trump that the intelligence community has many ways of getting back at him.
Why Hacker News points people here: HN uses it mostly in critical arguments about intelligence agencies and government power over speech and privacy.
“you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from sunday at getting back at you...”
Indeed, but think about who is running those blackmail ops... the three letters, well, how is it that Schumer put it, "you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from sunday at getting back at you..." [1] this video We need a new Church committee.
“Weird thing for us to be proud of, as noxious as Gab is.”
Lol your comment reminds me of this statement by Chuck Schumer. Weird thing for us to be proud of, as noxious as Gab is. this video
“How about this comment from Senate Majority leader Schumer?”
this video How about this comment from Senate Majority leader Schumer? This argument of "It's ok to meddle as long as you do not compel." is atrocious. People, especially those in high positions in social media companies, indeed fear government capability from many angles. Regardless of the permission to meddle but not compel, why is the government paying for agents to act as moderators in the first place? Isn't there more important crime to allocate resources to?
“the intelligence community has 6 ways to get back at you”
> A bunch of papers related to the JFK assassination that say Lee Harvey Oswald did it and acted alone. Who cares? That's not what people are concluding in the information spaces I'm in at all. Many of the CIA documents show highly suspicious travel, activities, and statements, particularly for James Angleton, William King Harvey, and a few others who's names escape me. They lend credence to the theory that Allen Dulles possibly conspired to kill JFK, putting into action henchmen of his still at the CIA after he was fired. You should care if the unelected bureaucrats that run our global intelligence agency can act with such impunity that they can murder a sitting President and cover it up for decades. link We had a Senator say on mainstream news "the intelligence community has 6 ways to get back at you" (in reference to Trump having an antagonistic relationship with the intel community) and nobody batted an eye. Why the fuck would it ever be ok for the CIA to have ways to "get back at" the Commander-in-Chief? this video
