Former CIA Officer Says Elissa Slotkin ‘Knew What She Was Doing’ With Military Defiance Video

Former CIA officer, Bryan Dean Wright, appeared on Watters’ World this weekend to offer analysis of the bizarre, some would say seditious, video released by Senator Elissa Slotkin of Michigan and other Democrats in which they advised members of the military to ignore supposedly ‘illegal’ orders from President Trump.

Wright suggests that Slotkin, who is also former CIA, knew exactly what she was doing by putting out this video.

More details from Breitbart News:

On Friday’s “Jesse Watters Primetime” on FNC, former CIA operations officer and host of the “The Wright Report” podcast, Bryan Dean Wright, argued that Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) intentionally sparked a firestorm with what he deemed a “propaganda video” urging military members to defy so-called “illegal orders.”“All right, Brian, these Democrats. Is this seditious what they’re doing?” host Jesse Watters asked.“It is,” Wright replied. “And look, we need to be very, very clear about Slotkin and who she is, so she knew what she was doing when she put that together. As a former CIA operations officer, my job was to go out in the field and collect the intel, conduct the operation. Her job as an analyst was to figure out whether or not things like propaganda operations were successful, if they were effective.”He continued, “So she has seen her fair share of propaganda operations, and she knows how to pull those off and make them effective. So if you think about it through that lens, if you watch the video again, one of the first things that she and the others do is they establish credibility and authority. They talk about who they are, working for the CIA and working for the military. They then move into the next phase of the propaganda message, which is, there’s a crisis. They create a crisis for the listeners inside the FBI and the CIA and the military, and they say that there is a threat, not just abroad, like we might face with China or Russia or al-Qaeda, but inside of the country. The threat is here. Who’s that threat? Donald Trump.”
