Imagine if they had focused resources on Afganistan intelligence rather than someone dressed as George Washington on Jan 6.

The CIA and FBI are to busy arresting American Citizens and getting woke! Two corrupt organizations for sure! They need to be tried for treason!
To: Onthebrink
They appear to have missed the fact that Taliban **shadow governors were already in place**.
Here it’s called the swamp.

The CIA run by China considers this a success .
They can now get back to destroying the US along with
the Sec of Defense who is ridding whitey in the Defense depts .

I think that a lot of us now believe these agencies (FBI, CIA, NSA) simply have to be done away with, as they’re incapable of doing their assigned jobs and our self-policing of them has been a total failure.
What does that mean? More 9-11’s, more deaths of Americans, and more destruction. But even at that cost, having these agencies, with their ENORMOUS RESOURCES essentially choosing who wins and loses elections is the worse option.

July 8, 2021: A recent U.S. intelligence assessment said that President Ashraf Ghani’s government in Kabul could fall within six to 12 months of the U.S. departure, potentially creating a humanitarian and security crisis – and a political problem for Biden. - https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/nation-politics/biden-to-address-u-s-troop-withdrawal-from-afghanistan-as-the-taliban-make-gains/

Billions annually and the CIA failed to see the fall of the Soviet Union?
Failed to predict the quick fall of Afghanistan?
Too many times the CIA has its head up its ass.

But, but, but - the CIA still knows how to ‘leak’ to press whores at the New York Times and Washington Post to self promote their careers - and isn’t that really the name of the Washington DC game?/s

CIA "failed" in order to justify their existence for another decade.
They are political. They are manipulators. Their Intelligence reports are heavily slanted and filtered to achieve political ends, not to promote understanding.

The CIA was in Afghanistan for the heroin. That’s how they get their play money.

CIA/FBI did a fabulous job on the lead up to 9/11!

Starting to believe that everything we know about CIA/FBI/DOJ etc,. is theater.

The problem with all these stories about “failures” or “crises” when it comes to Obamunists is assuming they didn’t want exactly what is happening.

I doubt that CIA people on the ground in the sandbox got this wrong. It’s just that their likely assessment didn’t comport with the woke narrative of woke, GLBTQ sensitive fundamentalist Muslims. Therefore their warnings were ignored.
