“Political “spies” in the CIA are not good and the FBI and CIA have lost some serious cred. They have proven that they will do anything to bring down a president whom they disagree with politically. Scary stuff since the FBI and CIA are not elected and have unlimited unchecked power.”
About half their hires were under Democratic minders.
I suspect the CIA hires from mainly leftist colleges.
If you have no real world skills from four years of leftist college education, but speak a foreign language very well, the CIA might be just the place for you.
How little we know about what really goes on. Foolish us to think that this is a representative government; a Republic with an electoral process. All it takes is one rogue disgruntled government official in the FBI, the CIA, the Justice Dept, etc. to bring down a president and nullify an election. And there are probably hundreds if not thousands of people who disagree with the president. Maybe the founders never considered the possibility of one branch of government, this example is the Executive branch, turning on its own.
This is very bad if the person in the White House is a Republican or a Democrat.
The sad truth is that we all gave the government the authority to do this right after 9/11 and never considered the possibility that the near omnipotent power would be used against Americans. After all, we were promised that there would be checks and balances.
