Since when is a contracting officer ever been in on anything. He's not even an agent. I'm not saying he's wrong and its probably true. But he would not be in a position to know much at all beyond procurement.
Management does not let such people in on operations.
Sure you bet...The FBI and CIA are run like a finely tuned instruments...They can criminally undermine, compromise and attempt to overthrow a legitimately elected president of the United States and it would never be revealed or exposed....Oh wait...
