Correction......"The Obama administration (the most transparent in history) won't say what Smith's new title is or what his duties will be, but his transfer instead of dismissal would have been approved at the highest levels"

Think about what he knows, and the book he could write if he wanted to.

He will be well taken care of for the next couple of years...

Jason Bourne ONLY happens in the movies(tv)..

Vince Foster was a warning not a tragedy..

So, he was moved just before he was to testify. Is the way it works that he can’t testify, because he isn’t with the CIA anymore? Can’t Congress say, we want this guy to testify as to his knowledge of activities at his RECENT job? It sure sounds like a shut-off move, just as Lois Lerner’s cushy retirement was.

IMHO, the bigger story is Jerome Pickett. A rising star in the USSS (16 years in) who just left to become head of NBA security.
