Apparently the Campaign Spy Halper learned his dirty-tricks trade from one of the better dirtballs: Tricky Dick Nixon. Notice the list of familiar names (read the rest of the story). They've all been around D.C. for decades, handing off from father to son to son-in-law.....
...In 1980, the Washington Post published an article
reporting on the extremely unusual and quite aggressive involvement of
the CIA in the 1980 presidential campaign. “Simply put, no presidential
campaign in recent memory — perhaps ever — has attracted as much support
from the intelligence community as the campaign of former CIA director
Bush,” the article said....
...Though there was nothing illegal about ex-CIA officials uniting to put a
former CIA Director in the Oval Office, the paper said “there are some
rumblings of uneasiness in the intelligence network.” It specifically
identified Cline as one of the most prominent CIA official working
openly for Bush, noting that he “recommended his son-in-law, Stefan A.
Halper, a former Nixon White House aide, be hired as Bush’s director of
policy development and research.”...
*Cough* What "Deep State"? What "Establishment"?
What? A CIA daddy-in-law pushing for sonny-in-law to join the Administration of an ex-CIA Director, and the sonny-in-law got dirty hands in the campaign?
No. Say it ain't so!
