Lying and deceit are the agency’s most important job skills!

Of all the things that 16 intelligence agencies do, threat analysis is probably the shabbiest product. Indeed, intelligence “analysis” is a deductive, not an inductive process. Analysis seldom begins with a blank slate. The drill begins with existing policy and all the embedded assumptions that politics brings to the table. To be a successful intelligence or national security analyst today, two assumptions are etched in stone.
Russians are bad. Muslims are good.
Simplistic as it sounds, any analysis that contradicts these team Obama bedrock policy maxims today is a dead letter.

Heh heh, this will change under Trump.
Muslims — watch very closely, the skulduggery can be intense.
Russia — watch, but not paranoid.

Is it past time for President Trump in 2017 to end the CIA?
President Truman did not trust the OSS and its increasing power.
At the end of WWII, he signed an ExO ending the OSS.
September 20, 1945, President Truman signed Executive Order 9621, terminating the OSS. His Order became effective October 1, 1945. In the days following, the functions of the OSS were split between the Department of State and the Department of War.
The State Department received the Research and Analysis Branch of OSS (originally created by Edward Mead Earle[28]) which was renamed the Interim Research and Intelligence Service or IRIS,[29] headed by U.S. Army Colonel Alfred McCormack. Later it was renamed the Bureau of Intelligence and Research by the State
Department.

I’m thinking Fiorina might be a good choice for DNI, not to necessarily reduce the number of (16) intelligence agencies, but to damn sure clean house and get some consistent direction and strategic alignment. That’s what CEOs do. And the thing she’s criticized most for (Compaq acq) unquestionably did that for HP.
Lying and deceit are the agency’s most important job skills!
On the advanced level, since the creation of the CIA and its clones, we have been in an almost constant state of warfare and destabilizing governments around the world. 6 plus decades of that crap and honest people debate about whether they were involved in the periphery of murdering JFK. Its beyond debate that they have repeatedly used drug and weapons trafficking to fund various black ops.
Before they existed, with the USA was much less inclined to go around the world doing that kind of thing.
I always heard that’s how we avoid another Pearl Harbor. I always thought the next people who considered a sunday morning sneak attack might look at all of Japan as a smoking ruin and Hiroshima and Nagasaki being nuked and feel deterred.
The intelligence community has become a shadow government, and is not a force for good or the American way.
Well, if you want to destroy an organization, Fiorina would be a really good choice. Ill give you that.

Truman on the CIA. This editorial is very odd to be written 4 weeks after JFK was killed.
atill liked the concept of the oss much better than cia, etc...patton, forrestal,4 kennedys,etc. might agree if they were still around...

Does anyone think that the head of our CIA, “Muslim John” Brennen who attended Cairo University and marched around the Kaaba in Mecca would put out disinformation?
This is the CIA, its what they do.
I would like to piss on his prayer rug and see him in prison for the rest of his life.
They are lying when they imply it was just the Russians. I have it from a government source who is a relative of a CIA agent that not only the KGB but also the Mossad, the Free Masons, the Free Aryans, the Rosicrucians, and Opus Dei were involved. Also, there was the incident of the disappearing strawberries and the overalls in Mrs. Clinton’s clam chowder.
Except she didn’t.
THe part that pissed me off is that she sold off the instrument division which was the historic heart of HP, but in terms of shareholder value, the merger has been successful. Where Fiorna failed, and Mark Hurd succeeded, was in re-educating the managers in the new company about how to realize the synergies and efficiencies that ultimately made it a good deal. This is typical of large acquisitions - the logic is sound going in but the actual integration proves more difficult than expected. Business school case histories abound.
So for this reason, if there is a restructuring of the intelligence agencies under Fiorina or anyone else, it would be essential to have a solid integration team, probably consisting of a thousand people or more - whose only job it would be to make the new organization work the way it is envisioned. Devil —> details.
the DNI is a 30000 useles paper shuffler headed by a liar...
the CIA is a left oriented over lawyered and too many useless at hq and a fall guy for the administration,since they cant talk out
the DIA and on and on and on are playgrounds for incomeptence
the FBI is a wannabe amateur intel player and coerup agency for the admin
PROBABLY HALF THE “INTEL” COMMUNITY COUlD BE FIRED....
does the CIA really need DIVERSITY TRAINING AND SUBCONCIOUS BIAS COURSES AND HIRING SECURITY RISKS FOR THE SAKE OF DIVERSITY AND A REORGANIZATION THAT WILL FURTHER SCREW THINGS UP.... DOES IT NEED 5000 LAWYERS...
It's waaaaaaaaay past time to drain the 'not so intelligent' swamp...
Great list.

Start by getting rid of the Muslim Brennan.
Our DNA is clicking again.
Look at my new tagline:
Start by getting rid of the Muslim Brennan plus anyone he promoted or brought into the agency!
You’ve summed it up quite nicely- the shadow government.
Shadow government of the globalist concerns.
