It's hard to imagine any prior CIA director issuing such a blatantly partisan statement. Particularly at a time like this.
It's so far off the charts of how a national security official should behave that I initially thought it must be fake. But per NPR, apparently not:

i am willing to compromise by just insisting on prison terms for ICE employees. that is the moderate position.
if there's a reason to keep up the "tribunals for all involved" discourse one such reason it is to put in stark relief how far away some of the Dem politicking is from the mood on the ground

1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.
