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.

That’s what I am thinking...
CIA was once run by George H.W. Bush and I have not trusted it since...if you read up on some of the things that were going on back then up to and including the killing of JFK, you know why it’s not to be trusted...
I think President Trump should do away with it, we have the Military and that should be good enough...right?
