It just keeps getting better and better. Reports now state that Donald Trump may actually do away with the Office of the Director of National Intelligence aka the Bush/Obama spying agency. It’s about time Trump thinks about doing away with some departments in government. If this report is true, this is a perfect place to start. Cut the fat (and spying) out of the government. This was the department lead by idiot and perjurer James Clapper who resigned earlier this week.

Trump weighs dismantling top spy agency: report
President-elect Donald Trump’s national security team is discussing plans to dismantle the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), an adviser and a former intelligence official consulting with the transition team told The Intercept.The reports, if true, come a day after the current director of national intelligence, James Clapper, announced his resignation, effective in approximately three months.
Trump’s transition team is reportedly discussing how to remove the Cabinet-level position and incorporate its responsibilities into the intelligence agencies it currently oversees, according to both sources.The process will be “long and messy,” the former intelligence official told The Intercept, but Trump’s team is confident it will be successful.
The office — which was formed under former President George W. Bush in the wake of the Sept. 11 attacks — has long been a source of friction in the intelligence community, where some see it as unnecessary bureaucracy.
The ODNI was a key recommendation of the 9/11 Commission Report, intended to facilitate smoother information-sharing between the 16 agencies that make up the U.S. intelligence community.
The only ones who would still support the ODNI spying agency would be Bushie neo-cons and far left communist Democrats.
