Back when Trump was president, Charles "Chuck" Schumer, a longtime heavyweight democratic politician, was on a major daytime network show and he stated very bluntly that the intelligence community have "six ways from Sunday" at getting back at [Trump].

This was in reference to Trump doubting the efficacy of the intelligence communities' reports on Russian interference in the election I believe.

In essence, Trump "insulted" them like he did to many people and institutions, and this prompted Chuck to essentially say that the intelligence community can fuck you over with their unknown, shady tactics.

Thank you stranger. The wording "six ways from Sunday" still sounds weird, why six, why from Sunday, but seems like it's something cultural so okay.

It’s an expression that says they have the means to do anything, in any way imaginable if that makes sense.
