President-elect Trump on Monday declined to say whether he trusts Julian Assange, founder of the controversial transparency group WikiLeaks, more than the U.S. intelligence community.
The incoming Republican president was asked by reporters at Trump Tower who he trusts more – Assange or U.S. intelligence analysts and the National Security Agency – and about his recent briefing on Russia’s involvement in election-related hackings.
“We’ll talk about that at another time,” Trump responded, according to a pool report.
It was not immediately clear whether the president-elect was responding to the question about Assange, the intelligence briefing, or both.
Trump has been highly critical of U.S. intelligence agencies, going so far as to call for a congressional investigation last week into whether intelligence officials leaked classified information to members of the media ahead of his briefing on Russia.
