Trump said in a post to his Truth Social early Thursday morning: “Our Country is a disaster, a laughing stock all over the World! This is what happens when you have OPEN BORDERS, with weak, ineffective, and virtually nonexistent leadership. The DOJ, FBI, and Democrat state and local prosecutors have not done their job.” The statement called for the CIA to “get involved, NOW, before it is too late.”
Newsweek reached out to Trump’s communications team for clarification on the comment via email on Thursday.
In the Thursday morning episode of Bannon’s War Room podcast, the host denounced Trump’s recommendation: “The CIA, Mr. President, is part of the problem, a serious part of the problem. And no, we don’t want the CIA involved in anything domestically, they’re involved too much domestically as is.”
