A retired four-star Army general said that he believes that President Trump is a "serious threat to US national security."
Retired Gen. Barry McCaffrey tweeted Friday that he reached the conclusion about Trump because the president "is refusing to protect vital US interests from active Russian attacks."
"It is apparent that he is for some unknown reason under the sway of Mr. Putin," he added.
McCaffrey has also worked as an adjunct professor at West Point and led the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy for five years during the Clinton administration.

The Twitter account isn't verified, either.

That's one way to squash a story.
Geez, we have a nest of vipers in the White House now. Oh, wasn't Obama horrible?
