I don’t disagree with that, but Ratcliffe has been a staunch supporter of Trump since the very beginning - one of the few that was vocal about the Russian collusion being a hoax. My take is that he is laughing at an inside joke, I never did hear a number on the defensive weapons that are being sent to Ukraine, how many weapons or dollars for that matter
I don't think he's laughing - My take is that Trump left it at the last private meeting with them (Ratcliffe, Hegseth and others) that he would look at options and let them know his decision, and that they're learning the decision 'live' with the rest of the group. I thought Ratcliffe's look was one of disbelief. He clearly didn't know the answer when he heard it. Hegseth might have known already, I can't tell.
No, I haven't. CIA is such a dirty agency. I wish it would be disbanded as President Kennedy vowed to do.

You could be right.
