The people insisting on these claims knew they were getting fired in a Trump administration anyway.
This smells like preemptive employee accusations.
This started percolating around the new sites earlier today and was posted here from zerohedge, fox, and now the compost all sourced to the WSJ. The echo chamber of this one story is an amazing case study in how Fake News propagates.
I personally doubt this entire story. The timing and content are just wrong on so many levels. I believe this is yet another one of those fake news stories designed to muddy the waters and whip up sentiment.
Just my .02cents worth.

The CIA needs a good broadside, not a warning shot. Decimation would only be a good start—losing 1 out of 10 positions isn’t enough. State should start at 50% and work upwards.
Brennan is Obama’s most loyal acolyte. He has permeated the CIA with Obama commissars. The Agency does nothing that does not correlate with the Obama narrative. The “intelligence” it generates is political fodder to advance or validate the Obama agenda. It will take much brutal effort to reform and restore this agency to what it once was.
What would Thomas Jefferson, George Washington or James Madison do?
They’d go through Langley with the HR lady and fire 2 out of 3, after the top 5 were fired.
Then they would put a military man in charge.
I think we can actually thank Obama and the Dems for their ridiculous Russian hacking hysteria, since it so clearly demonstrated the politicization of the intelligence community that Trump is rightly objecting to.
I hope that the reforms include making all the 13 intelligence agencies concentrate on spying on foreigners instead of US citizens and companies and politicians. That would be a good change.
D@mmit! President Elect (LOVE THAT!) Trump is ruining future episodes of NCIS with all of this de-funding talk!

Best. Election. Ever. EVER! :)
Would anyone put an assassination attempt beyond the CIA? I wouldn’t. I think they’ve done it here before.
Hope he cleans up a lot of agencies and gets rid of the liberals.
Trump is telling the intel community that he is going to clear out the Muslim Brotherhood infiltrators implanted by Obama and Brennan.
Yep - then there’s Chuckie Schumer saying that Trump needs to play nice with the intel agencies because if he makes them mad, “They have ways of making you pay”. He either disparaged the hell out of them or pointed out how flawed they are and in need of a thorough cleaning.
The CIA (NSA, DIA, ...) need to dump their current Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals” and go back to Sun Tsu’s “The Art of War”.
We also need to rename the “Department of Defense” back to the “War Department”. We won every war and conflict when it was the “War Department” and haven’t won anything after it changed.
