Ex-CIA director James Woolsey says being thrown under the bus 'unfortunate yet predictable'

Thursday, Reuters published a story claiming that former CIA director James Woolsey was advising President Donald Trump’s campaign when he proposed a plan to discredit Turkish cleric.

“Ambassador Woolsey and his wife have responded to every request, whether from the FBI, or more recently the Office of the Special Counsel,” a spokesperson for Woolsey Link to tweet
" target="_blank">told Rachel Maddow Friday.

Reuters has not indicated who their source was on their story, but Woolsey’s statement seems to indicate that it could be someone involved with Flynn. Woolsey reinforced that he’s already revealed everything he knows to special counsel Robert Mueller as part of the investigation against Flynn.

MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow is expected to report on the story during her Friday episode.

I've been up too long.

Man, I feel bad enough about one or two typos in a 5,000 word brief, but that guy should be dying a thousand deaths by now.
