SSCI Vice Chairman Mark Warner is not happy the Trump administration is subverting the oversight authorities of the SSCI and Gang-of-Eight. If you know the background of the SSCI and Warner, his frustration is a positive indication.
I’ll have much more to say about the ramifications of his anxiety and the background therein, but here’s the raw interview as broadcast for context of what will follow.
Senate Intelligence Committee Vice Chairman, Democratic Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia, told “Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan” that the committee was not briefed ahead of President Trump’s deadly Venezuelan boat strike that was allegedly carrying drugs. The mission was a military operation, but Warner said, “This kind of action should be briefed to the intelligence community.” WATCH:
.

Who cares what a globalist thinks?
apparently the complicit propaganda media
At Nuremberg, the propaganda media were hanged alongside the Nazis.
How do you suppose the military found out about that drug boat in the first place?
Intelligence has to be watching for those things.
and SSCI wasnt informed because they would leak — Mark Warner might have even given Maduro a call.
Yep! They have satellites that can see things you wouldn’t believe!
And I’m sure they have Intel people on the ground there!
I can think of a couple ways that the military can find out about drug shipments that don’t require an obviously butthurt (and possibly scared) Mark Warner to be briefed. If it’s OK with everybody, I’ll keep them to myself. If people think beyond the idiotic spewing from our legacy media, some of you might reach the same conclusions.
In the meantime, have another drink, Senator Warner.
He does have THAT look!
They have been inside the CIC of the drug lords long before the kinetics…
Looks slightly ripped.
Saudi+Trump+Glowing Globe… 😉
DIA; Defense Intelligence Agency
If we fire the incompetent in the BLS, how will that improve the data? Seriously?
I’m very puzzled as to what part of the Constitution requires President Trump to brief a committee chock full of corrupt Senators about an upcoming military operation.
Cry me a river Warner! Your tears make me happy!
That’s the problem, they’ve tried to subvert the Constitution with bureaucracy and he’s now actively undermining that. He’s showing how worthless they are. And if they’re worthless then why do we need them at all?
“He’s showing how worthless they are. “
Exactly. And so why would Warner go on TV and admit to the world how impotent he is?
“It’s not my fault! They did not tell me! Don’t hurt me, narcos! I did not know!!!”
Simple answer is that Warner is a eunuch and can’t adjust to his role in the big picture
Yes, the narcos have paid big for that kind of information and Warner did not deliver as promised. Warner may have out LIVED his usefulness.
Yeah! Oops!
https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/essay/artI-S8-C18-7-1/ALDE_00013657/
Article I, Section 8, Clause 18 says nothing about the President briefing Corrupt Congress Critters about upcoming military action. Not one single word.
Keep in mind that with the Potatus administration, they only had to give the military big shot a couple of pairs of lacy panties and a new lipstick to find out whatever they wanted…
Has to be frustrating them…
Ewwwww! Need eye bleach! Gross!!!
Investigations and oversight happen AFTER an event occurs, not before.
F off, markwarner
Oh, if only he would. He and his cronies are a pox on Virginia.
It looks like our favorite President has clearly identified the scumbag leakers in Congress and appropriately excluded them from being briefed on sensitive operations.
I think Warner just volunteered to be fed some phony disinformation by the administration so the Counter-Intel agents can then pinpoint who leaked it out.
Every week we see evidence of the exposure or dismantling of the influence of the deep state. It is of course being a long and very difficult task to weed it all out and one that will take multiple administrations with the will to do it.
Well said. rah. And as this happens we can also see the infamous “uniparty” RIN0 Republicans losing influence. The Trump phenomenon is more pervasive than anyone realized . . . until it was too late. Just ask John Cornyn and/or Mitch McConnell.
No one listens to Clown Warner.
By the way, is anyone going to be prosecuted this year?
Still waiting.
and by the way, did you see this “Clown’s” performance in the hearing with RFK jr? What a sh*t show
11 just went down to Davy Jones locker. Good start.
I always wonder why PDJT is forever praising Blondie. I just don’t get it.
Those 11 narco terrorists were probably big favorites of Warner and the SSCI. It must be tough watching your besties and the product that they move for you and your friends get blown to bits on their way to making skim money for you and all of your corrupt buddies in “public service”.
does Warner not know that we see thru him?
I don’t think so . . . it’s almost like we are watching him through one of those windows and on his side, he thinks it is a mirror.
So now they can give their ATM arms a rest while they think of old and new ways to fleece and ruin the American people.
You can view these extinguished narcos Warner apparently cares so much about in the same way we viewed the muz brohood under the kenyan.
Wonder what Maduro’s alias is in Warner’s smartphone contacts?
🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
“Jack Frost” because he brings the “snow.”
The mission was a military operation, but Warner “this kind of action should be briefed to the intelligence community.””
I agree with Warner.
It was just not fair that these [now former] drug running terrorists could not be warned ahead of time by Warner. Now he will never have the chance to meet with them in Venezuela for drinks and conversation.
Warner should be happy Trump stood up for the American people by destroying terrorists along with hundreds, if not thousands, of pounds of drugs. He obviously isn’t. Says a lot about our SSCI. It tells me the side their on.
And, so should Rand Paul! His “objection” was asinine!
Rand “I hate MAGA” Paul:
“JD “I don’t give a shit” Vance says killing people he accuses of a crime is the “highest and best use of the military.”
Did he ever read To Kill a Mockingbird?
Did he ever wonder what might happen if the accused were immediately executed without trial or representation??
What a despicable and thoughtless sentiment it is to glorify killing someone without a trial.”
I want to ask Senator Paul if HE ever read “To Kill a Mockingbird” . . .
what about the chapter where Atticus blows away the rabid dog with a single shot?
The Paul family has been a huge disappointment, when given the chance to do what they have claimed they always wanted to do they both turned into liars. At least now we can see their true colors and won’t be fooled again.
Please don’t imply that this was your first clue?
Wait until PDT green lights the US navy destroying Venezuela’s pathetic aircraft that get too close to our ships. Warner will hopefully vapor lock.
And the fact that he went straight to FTN without talking to Trump about it tells us that he has no cojones and confirms he’s not loyal at all.
and his pay-off from them
Warner will get to meet with them in hell. Can’t be soon enough.
As always if they complain it means we are right over the target. If they complain loudly and on tv news it means you hit the bullseye.
With Rubio standing next to him, President Trump knows exactly ‘not’ to trust Warner and his cabinet of leakers.
Prolly he’s upset he didn’t have a chance to earn some fast “Bolivares” from his Venezuelan sugar daddy!
Winner! Winner! Chicken dinner!
Too bad!
How sad!
My great-granddad!
*That’s what my mom used to tell me.
POTUS should have let the IC know? LMAO. I think it’s supposed to be the other way around which is why they’re so upset with POTUS and Gabbard. Trump is finally putting the horse before the cart and it’s driving them nuts.
Yuck. I can take Brennan (fast forwarding through her insufferable questions) when the responder is Hassett or Bessent, but I can’t take BOTH Warner AND Brennan.
However, it appears that the Trump Administration has figured out the best way to accomplish a mission is to keep the Democrats and Traitors out of the loop. Good for them!
Not long ago that committee was tagged as the most corrupt in the government. Warner was its chairman.
SSCI were all “DeceptiCons”…. appropriately coined by Sundance way back in ’07 / ’08 when he was referring the Senate Uniparty RINOs who never broke ranks with the DC Establishment and who eventually became the anti-MAGA GOPe led by Mitch McConnell.
Warner talks of ‘laws of the sea,’ but obviously is not aware of or chooses to ignore POTUS Trump’s Executive Order 13919 of April 30, 2020 when it comes to narcoterrorists 👇
“Enhanced Department of Defense Counternarcotic Operation in the Western Hemisphere”

Is there a section on pirates in the Law of the Sea?
I don’t know where the section on pirates is in the Law of the Sea . . .
but I believe it goes back to Thomas Jefferson at least when he was dealing with the Barbary Pirates!
Do you mean the 2009 b o era,
when 3-4 pirates were found in boat, with a cargo ship captain,
and a big navy ship monitored the boat
There was a big hooray when the captain was rescued.
(not much was said about the (newly) dead pirates).
Is there a double standard in the media?
uhhh….
Was there a hooray for the drugs that sunk into the sea, last week (and lives were saved in america) and someones nefarious missed a pay day?

After everything this corrupt fool has gotten away with, I love to see him upset.
He didn’t care about being notified except it didn’t give him a chance to mess up the strike.
Gross & gross
Don’t need to watch and never do.
Peeky, leaky Warner. You got caught.
The only thing Dependable about Mark Warner would be . . . his Depends!
But even so, they need to be changed from time to time!
Sensitive military operations are on a need to know basis, Mark. You leakers didn’t make the list.
The SLIME just oozes out of this POS.
Did Schiff for Brains stomp his little foot and make Markie W. go put up his little fists?
Democrats, by party affiliation, alone do not belong on any “intelligence” committee.
How do you spell..scumbag
Warner … The BLS has been the “Gold Standard” for infomration” …. huh???
For each month of the Obama and Bidem Adminstrations, that’s 12 YEARS or 144 Monthly Reports, their data was “adjusted” to the bad by nearly 30-50%+ EACH Month.
For each month of the President Trump’s administration, 48 monthly Reports, their data was adjusted 20%+ to the Good.
Throw in adjustments during the Bush II administration … that is nearly 200+ Reports out of 216 that were total politically driven BS. Of course nobody asked Warner for his definition of “Gold Standard”, which needs to be done these days when a politician makes these kind of statements.
Gold Standard . . . hmmm . . . that reminds me, Senator . . . when are we all going to examine Fort Knox?
The way you guys throw America’s money around and strive to get us deeper into debt, inquiring minds would like to know!
Being shown to be outside the loop significantly reduces a person’s commercial value in DC. Warner is unhappy that his marketable worth was diminished by being sidelined.
I wonder who leaked to the NY Times the alleged 2019 seal team 6 operation in N. Korea?
Still three more years to earn Trump’s trust, Democrats. Go for it.
Warner is on the take from Ukraine bigly. Has been for years .
He’s a primary source for all things Russian collusion and of course intelligence leaks and manaforts prosecution and incarceration.
Just Ukraine? Think bigger.
I don’t recall Obama briefing anyone before he murdered Americans with drones in the Middle East. Where was Waldo Warner then? These jackasses are so predictable.
Don’t insult the jackasses!
As for the INTEL Committee being consulted on a Military Strike …. last time I checked … strikes are conducted AFTER the INTEL is gathered … so no need for consultation as your part of the process had passed you by.
Hmmm … when Obama was zapping folks with drones did he consult with you???
Last time you guys were consulted … there was a Special Forces Team in Africa shot to bits in an ambush, on their way to remove an Islamic terrorist cell.
Then there is the ambush of Seal Team 6, in Afgahnistan.
Slime ball. Stunning he is still in position, but I doubt for long.
He lost campaign contributions when that boat went down.
They’re all linked to the cartels and it will be shown to be so. From the Caribbean Sea to New Orleans to Chicago. Hence the military and the screaming governors from Mike Pompeo’s list.
Warner is being iced out of intel briefings until after the fact because Warner is a leaker. He’s not entitled to briefings on DoD operations.
Cry more Sen Warner…!
His surname “Warner.” It’s not just a name, it’s a description of what he does. Warner warns the narco terrorists! It’s a fitting name!
Warner isn’t aging well.
He’s upset all the time because his big buck donations are not yielding big rewards for his donors.
Last week it was with RFK Jr.
Warner took in 379,856 from health professionals, 630,475 from Big Pharma and 544,517 from health services and HMO’s.
This week it’s intelligence and he took in 75,000 from Northrop Grumman.
These people are freaking out that they’ll lose their hundreds of millions if the can’t deliver the goods for their donors.
Theyll fight for any dollar bill floating around but not for their constituents.
Figures like those should be widely distributed so the average voter will get the message, eventually.
Demons don’t age well. Which senator was it with diarrhea of the mouth trying to ‘gotcha’ RFK the other day who’s plastic face was literally melting off in the hearing the other day? Another demon.
Ron Wyden.
Just tell him they didn’t brief him “because of the sensitivity of the matter?”
HA !
Good one!
“We were trying to do you a favor, Senator Warner.”
That is funny!
“This kind of action should be briefed to the intelligence community.”
Trans\lated: “And I regard myself, first and foremost, as a member of the intelligence community.”
This slitherer has been running his mouth on X. This is good, as he’s been subjected to Soviet Field Army-level counter-battery fire. He underestimates the number of people who are seeeing his game.
As to why not GO8 notification? It’s possible that OPSEC dictated that because of the porous nature of SSCI.
To clarify on that GO8 thing, the President can brief them later. He’s in no way required to brief or consult with them prior to him taking action. They can get steamed later, which is appropriate.
..
She is such a idiot.
Twerp admits that they weren’t needed for oversight notice before the drug boat strike.
Then tries to gaslight how important he and the oversight committed are needed for “National Security ”.
A useless interview to sew a narrative to the few viewers but replayed thousands of times in 30 second clips on social media.
Good luck with your endeavors with this guy SD.
Also, the media is always trying to tie Rubio with the Intel committee.
Wonder why?
Take her Notebook away and she would be speechless.
.
They didn’t tell you because you are a traitor and would have leaked it to the narcos
Can’t trust the committee to not warn Maduro.-Milley and China for example.
Warner wanted to leak it to his buddies.
(unsaid and of course, confidentially ) yes, it boosts someone’s ego.
( which could tip someone off, and thereby create a waste of u.s. resources to resolve a matter, again )
So ummm, what is the upside?
( well, it follows a secure communication protocol.
What protocol was being followed during the spygate, the russia russia collusion dossier hoax for years, or the ukr whistleblower leak for a year, or…. ?
Go ahead mw write about the upside (and it is about 8 years late)
uhhhh… _____ )
The narcos that pay Warner may take their pound of flesh. Warner just trying to get ahead of his problem.
