BIG QUESTION President Obama and the senior leaders ofboth parties on Capit01 Hill, an offcial familiar with the document says. But none 0fthe offcials wh0 had seen the allegations had been able t0 substanti- ate them, according tO intelligence Offcers famil- iar with the documents. The offcials say the two- page annex was included in the briefing because analysts didn't want to hold damaging allegations about Trump, even ones they didn't believe, that he didn't know they had. ln his press conference the next day, Trump was predictably outraged that information about a private intelligence document leaked t0 the pub- lic and said it would be a "tremendous blot ” on intelligence offcials ifthey were responsible for the leak. "A thing like that should never have been written; ” Trump said. "lt should certainly never have been released. ” The incoming President de- nied doing anything that would give Russia lever- age over him. ln particular, he said he had always been careful in hiS foreign travels, even in private, t0 behave well. "I was in Russia, years ago, with the Miss Universe contest; ” he said. "And I told many people, 'Be careful. Because you don't wanna see yourselfon television. Cameras all over the place. ' A similar sense Of suspicion iS now spread- ing here at home. The latest episode means the President-elect, whO has been sharply critical of U. S. intelligence offcers, will be entering the White House at war with his spies, unsure whether they were undermining him with a leak and shad- owed by allegations 0fRussian leverage over him. The spies, for their part, already know they can't trust Trump to defend them. And the American people find themselves unsure ofwhom tO trust and, perhaps, what t0 believe. And that may have been the point. Trump is getting a taste Ofthe toxins that Democrats are convinced poisoned the Clinton campaign in the end: allegations ofmisconduct that, even ifun- provable or untrue, cannot be unseen or unheard once they've been released in the wild. Law en- forcement is also wounded. ln testimony on Capi- tol Hill, FBI Director James Comey declined to answer whether there was an FBI investigation int0 Trump campaign dealings with Russia, say- ing he would never comment on such things. That brought audible derision from Democrats. Russia's preference for Trump over Clinton in November may have been established in recent weeks by the CIA, but a primary goal of the Rus- S1an influence operation was tO undermine con- fidence in the し S. and Western democracy. Soon Trump will be the leader ofthe free world, and with truth and rumor indistinguishable at the highest levels ofgovernment, the latest chaos in Washington suggests the Russian operation is still under way and working rather well. 6 TIME January 23 , 2017 SiX months in, iS Britain's Theresa May bungling Brexit? THERESA MAY PASSED HER SIXTH month as Prime Minister on Jan. 13 as the defining issue ofher term—Britain's withdrawal from the E. U.—nears a cri- sis point. The resignation Of a key civil servant on Jan. 3 was the latest blOW tO a Brexit process that critics say is going badly awry : HARD TRUTHS Britain's ambassador tO the E.

He had previously said it would take Britain up tO a decade tO forge a post-Brexit trade deal with the E. U. Pro-Brexit ministers insist it can be done in tWO years. KNOWN UNKNOWNS May has said Britain will formally begin the two-year pro- cess ofleaving the E. U. before April, but so far has provided little detail on what Britain will seek in talks with negotia- tors in Brussels on issues such as trade and immigration. The Prime Minister has repeatedly claimed she does not want tO reveal her negotiating stance, but a leaked memo by a consultant claimed in November that her Cabinet was bitte rly divided ove r strategy. HIGH STAKES Pressure is building on May tO lay out in clear terms exactly what she wants from Brexit. Much is riding on what she says next. ln a Jan. 8 television interview, she hinted that Britain could not expe ct tO retain んⅡ access tO the E. U. 's single market after Brexit. The next day, the pound sterling fell to its lowest point against the U.

Only The Apprentice, which introduced celebrities intO its casting pool but otherwise remains solidly rooted in format, represents the unchanged early legacy ofbroadcast reality. Reality TV's emergence from its wilderness days can be traced tO Mark Burnett, the impresario behind Survivor and TheApprentice, on which he's credited as a producer along with the President-elect. Burnett squeezed human moments intO a Hollywood- ready package—on a desert island or in a boardroom— and stripped away the tendency t0 privilege what some call identity politics.

PROFILE St. lgnatius 0fLoyola, a four-week series ofmeditations during which he imagined walking with Jesus from birth tO Resurrection. Later, with Driver, h spent a week at a silent prayer retreat in Wales. "I didn't sleep very much, and I was having very ViVid dreams. I wasn t allowed to read, so it's just you and you he says. "lt was a deep dive int0 your own psyche through the imagined life 0 Jesus Christ. For the director, who has been devel- oping Silence for nearly three decades after being moved by the anguish 0f End0's novel as a younger man, find- ing a star wh0 would deeply commit was paramount. "People say, 'Well, any- bOdy wants work,' ” but not necessarily Scorsese says. "Andrew actually wanted tO think about all these issues. ' How Andrew Garfield learned to suffer like the saints By S 取 Lansky MARTIN SCORSESE'S LATEST MOVIE, SILENCE, defies easy summarization. Says the director: "lt's hard tO talk about, because the questions are SO profound and SO basic that it sounds preten- tious: What iS existence? WhO are we? What is the human condition? ” The film's star Andrew Garfield doesn't fare much better, concluding, "lt feels like a long prayer. ” The plot is straightforward enough. Ad 叩 te d from the 1966 historical novel by Shusaku End0, Silence follows 2017th century Jesuits, played by Garfield and Adam Driver, as they travel through Japan in search oftheir mentor (Liam Neeson), WhO iS rumored tO have renounced hiS Cath01icism. Garfield's Father R0drigues becomes the center of the film when he is captured by inquisitors working tO remove all Christianity from their island nation. His captors test his faith through torture and ritual humiliation like defiling the image 0fJesus. Garfield's performance, measured and dream- like, turns this turmoil intO a meditation on the cost offaith. What does it mean, Rodrigues' story forces the character and viewers tO ask, tO believe when your faith is being used against you? ln the end, Garfield's prayer analogy comes closest t0 defining the experience ofwatching the film. More than a narrative, Silence iS an extended rumination on the nature ofpain and doubt, what Cath01ics call the "gift oftears ” or the kind ofwisdom acces- sible only through profound suffering. The film marks a period oftransformation for Garfield. The 33-year-old got his break playing one ofMark Zuckerberg's classmates in 2010 ' S The SociaI Network before stepping into the role 0f Spider-Man for two films in 2012 and 2014. Since then he's taken more demanding roles, including a conscientious objector in Mel Gibson's World War Ⅱ drama Hacksaw Ridge, which earned him a Best Actor nomination at the Golden Globes. Later this year he will star ⅲ a revival 0fTony Kushner's AIDS epic Angels ⅲ America at London's National Theatre. Scorsese says this is why he wanted tO cast Garfield when he first auditioned nearly four years ago. saw there was an emotional level that he already had," says the legendary director.

"Very often, Andrew just looked at me and said, 'We have tO accept this; ” Scorses recalls. "'We have tO accept the mist, the rain, the earthquakes. ' ” Garfield, like his character, seems tO have under- gone a spiritual journey. "There's always been a spiritual feeling that l've had, but it's never been my primary focus Garfield says, pausing before bursting intO a beatific smile.
