CIA director: Trump tweets yielding valuable intelligence (Some heavy-duty bullshit here)

[spanone]

Washington (CNN)CIA Director Mike Pompeo said Saturday that President Donald Trump's prolific Twitter feed was yielding valuable intelligence.

"I've actually seen it help us," Pompeo told the audience at The Reagan National Defense Forum in Simi Valley, California, when asked whether Trump's Twitter activity was making his job harder.

"I have seen things the President has put on his Twitter account actually have a real-world impact on our capacity to understand what's going on in other places of the world," Pompeo said.

"Our adversaries responded to those tweets in ways that were helpful to us to understand command and control issues, who's listening to what messages, how those messages are resonating around the world," he added.

13. True on all counts

But just think about the possibilities if we can invent a process where no intelligence goes in and intelligence comes out. That has to be useful for something, right?

When one considers that every time his stubby little fingers touch his pPhone a few million more people hate his guts, what's not to understand?

But "command and control issues?" Give me a break.
