What was your rank? How many SAPs were you read into?

Having Top Secret SCI clearance does not give you immediate access to every SAP you request to be read into. Most people are not read into more that a dozen SAPs.

I’ll also point out that if Grusch was an unexceptional IC officer, the pentagon would easily be able to discredit him as such. To date, the pentagon has not attempted to say anything about Grusch’s credibility. Many reporters have stated on the record that Grusch is very well regarded as a high level intelligence official.

What evidence do you have that this guy was not an exceptional officer, other than maybe you yourself were not exceptional?

My record is public so you can verify by yourself

I don't know you. I don't know how to look up your "record". Why obfuscate? If you came onto HN to spread awareness then help us understand. Otherwise you've come here to brag and you are not helpful.

I’m not looking up some random online comment’s credentials to try to prove their own point. Your comment doesn’t stand on its own and if you’re not willing to clarify your credentials further then your argument is moot.

Why wouldn’t you just go on to apply all the same criteria to whatever response they would provide to you? Looks like they made the right decision not to engage with your demands.

I haven’t asked anyone to look up anything. I’m just discussing what’s in the article and the sources the article is referencing. I’m happy to give people plenty of things to read or watch to catch up if you’d like - I won’t make you sleuth for it in my comment history.

What’s your rank? How many did you have access to? Citations please.

> Many reporters

Given the fundamental disregard HN has towards the MSM, this would be an appeal to authority.

When I was a sophmore the CIA recruiter said he knew coops who had done pdbs. I guess he was disreputable.

So.... argument from authority?
