A CIA employee who contributed thousands of dollars to Hillary Clinton in 2016 and who is a registered Democrat announced his decision to leave the agency in a Washington Post column published Sunday, writing that his departure "had nothing to do with politics."
Edward Price resigned from the CIA last week and used the Washington Post to explain his decision that he could not "in good faith serve this administration as an intelligence professional." Price wrote that his "decision had nothing to do with politics," and that he "would have been proud to again work under a Republican administration."
"As intelligence professionals, we’re taught to tune out politics," Price wrote.
Unmentioned by Price or the Washington Post is the fact that Price gave $5,000 to the Hillary Victory Fund, a joint fundraising committee that splits contributions between the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee. Public records indicate that Price is registered to vote as a Democrat in the District of Columbia.
Price rose through the ranks at the White House during the Obama administration. By the end of the administration, Price was the top spokesman and a senior director for Obama's National Security Council.
Price reportedly worked hand in hand with Obama's deputy national security adviser Ben Rhodes in his effort to create an "echo chamber" during the administration's nuclear negotiations with Iran.
When the news broke that Iran was holding American hostages in the lead-up to Obama's 2016 State of the Union address, for example, it was Price who was ordered by Rhodes to begin spinning the administration's "well-cultivated network of officials," according to David Samuels of the New York Times.

This man was nothing but a Obama operative trying to crash the Trump
Admin and he was found out. Trump did him the kindness of
of allowing him to resign. That's is what I believe.
Blabbing about it all to the Wash. Post was just a way to
alert others of his ilk that Trump is looking for them.
I wonder why this yahoo wasn’t fired ?
Not political. They’re the leaker?
“My decision had nothing to do with politics.” These people have no integrity. “The president’s chief strategist, Stephen K. Bannon, who cut his teeth as a media champion of white nationalism.” Price would probably have been terminated because of his leftist outlook. Non political my ass.
**Price was the top spokesman and a senior director for Obama’s National Security Council.**
