A former senior DHS official who once accused the Trump administration of politicizing intelligence said that a return of Pres. Donald Trump to the White House in 2024 'would be a disaster' for the U.S. intelligence community.
George Stephanopoulos interviews Brian Murphy, the former DHS acting under secretary for intelligence, on"This Week."said Sunday that a return of President Donald Trump to the White House in 2024"would be a disaster" for the U.S. intelligence community.
Murphy, a long-time federal law enforcement official, made headlines last year after filing a whistleblower complaint accusing Trump-appointed leaders of politicizing intelligence by withholding or downplaying threats that ran counter to Trump's political messages.
In his complaint, Murphy further accused Nielsen, Wolf and other top officials of scrambling to gather and prepare intelligence reports that aligned with Trump's public remarks in the months leading up to the 2020 election. In one instance, Murphy wrote in his complaint that he was"instructed" by Wolf"to cease providing intelligence assessments on the threat of Russian interference in the United States, and instead start reporting on interference activities by China and Iran."
