Fred Fleitz, former Chief of Staff to Trump ‘s National Security Council discusses the ridiculousness of the intelligence hearings being “publicized” when the U.S. is under a “dire” threat from abroad. The vice chair of America First Policy Institute comments come in the wake of recent news that the United States, for the first time, is under a complex threat from China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea. Fleitz remarks, “why do we do these hearings? Our intelligence agencies spend two hours in unclassified session and they tell the world, all their assumptions, all the things they're thinking about. And like they say, there were unclassified. But you could imagine that in Beijing, Moscow, Havana, Caracas, and in Iran, they're taking careful notes about what these intelligence officials are saying.” Fleitz goes on to say, “Russia and China are not stupid enough to put their intelligence officers before cameras to give their assumptions of what they think about the United States.”
