US and UK security sources warned back in NOVEMBER that Trump would use intelligence sharing as a bargaining chip - unfortunately, it seems they were right.

I'm sure we'll threaten to shut down their ELINT bases in the UK if they did.

100%. Allies have an obligation to withhold intel, esp HUMINT, from this rogue nation. Unfortunately, as with defence, they are hugely reliant on US assets generally and particularly for SIGINT, so all will suffer. That said, US intel can no longer be trusted, so allies have little choice.

Americans will be less safe thanks to Trump/Musk/Vance here and around the world!

Thing is Trump doesn't need "Five Eyes" as he has a hotline to the Kremlin!

Five Eyes nations should also disassociate from all Musk businesses - for instance, assume info gathered by Starlink is given/sold to Russia, China & other enemies.

i doubt we have any intelligence to share now

I wouldn't trust Trump/the U.S. with my grandma's Christmas cookie recipe.

I'm betting they're already feeding the US disinformation to see where it pops up.

If a foreign government can pay for intelligence, Trump will sell it to them.

Trump will one thousand percent start calling them "four-eyes" if they force the US out of intel-sharing.

It MUST be Four Eyes now. The heartbreak is being an American & needing to say this. The Republican Administration--ALL of them for they are complicit--will see the natural consequences of destructive, vengeful, corrupt, greedy decisions that care not for democracy, peace, alliances and humanity.

Unfortunately, all "former" allies need to consider every US intel officer compromised at this point and cut them off.

4 eyes are better than 5...especially when one eye is evil...

Screw Trump -- don't give the USA anything. And tell them to pound sand the next time there is a terror attack

I wouldn’t tell the US anything other than to go screw itself.

The more important issue is that they should actually, not threaten, to withhold security info from the US because we are not a trustworthy nation.

I'm hoping they give 47 trackable bad info. I believe the term is breadcrumbs. I'm hoping rank and file US intelligence give similar info to Tulsi, Rubio, Patel etc. They have the worst 18m for HUMINT in the US's history to be petty about, I won't judge them if they aren't big enough to forget it.

schwanderer.bsky.social•23 hours ago

Let's hope they stopped sharing info with the pro-putin US govt even during the last time he was there

swchase.bsky.social•1 day ago

One of my concerns from the get go, the 1st Trump Administration shared or leaked secrets like a sieve, the 2nd will be worse. NO country in its right mind would share sensitive intel with the U.S. right now.
