Silly Liberals, issuing a threat against someone who has more power than you is never a good idea.
The CIA is threatening mass resignations after Donald Trump takes office. Former CIA acting director Michael Morell said Trumps rhetoric will cause a wave of resignations that will impact the agencys ability to work with intelligence services around the world, the Hill reports.
First, expect a wave of resignations. Attrition at the C.I.A., which has been remarkably low since Sept. 11, 2001, will skyrocket, Morell wrote in a New York Times opinion column. The primary motivator for some of our smartest minds to go to work at the C.I.A. is to make a difference to national security, to play a role in keeping the country safe.
The President-elect is NOT going to America less safe, he is just going to put the right people in charge! Morell is correct about the mission of the CIA, at least.
If the staffers at the agency are so thin-skinned they cannot handle it when called to task for shoddy work, then we really need some new people in the agency anyway.
The mindset and demeanor of the Liberal agency leaders may have infected the ranks. That would be a shame, but a President Trump would have no problem finding highly skilled tech analysts in the private sector and bring in new recruits from within the government who have long been passed over because their views on world affairs were too Conservative and common sense imposed for the Barack Obama administration.
All of the sacrifices from the long hours, polygraph tests, unfair media criticism, not to mention the real dangers to life and limb are worth it, if you are making a difference, Morell continued. Unfair media criticism? The mainstream media has been carrying the water for the Obama administration for eight years including the findings of the lackluster Russian hackers investigation.
Perhaps leaking the top secret report on the DNC hacking to NBC BEFORE it was given to Donald Trump has not endeared CIA brass to the President-elect. Morell went on to dub Trumps comments about the Russian hacking investigation an unprecedented political challenge for our national security establishment and a danger to the nation.
Being questioned about the thoroughness of findings in an intelligence report is due diligence on the president-elects part. When neither the FBI nor the CIA even looked at the hacked laptops or the DNC server before deciding Russia did it, there is ample room for an authenticity and accuracy challenge from an incoming president.
The CIA is not supposed to be a politicized agency. But over the course of the past eight years it, like the Pentagon, has becoming increasingly partisan.
His [Trump] disparagement of American intelligence officers over the last few months is likely to cause significant damage to the CIA, Morell added. Why would a foreign intelligence service take the CIA seriously (and share important information with it) when the American president doesnt?
The correct question to be asking is WHY doesnt the future president take the CIA seriously the agency heads should be scurrying to fix their credibility problem and not making inane threats. Trump will leave no Washington, D.C. swamp left un-drained.

The CIA employees MUST take a polygraph if requested. I recall this from back when the Plame situation arose. That would be a good start in purging the traitors.
Please let it be so!
These agents know that being fired is not a resume enhancement so they want to get ahead of their being terminated with resignations.
Drain the swamp.....
Who needs traitors to the country. Remove the Obama scum, the Muslim pigs, and start recruiting real American patriots. Point two is this story originates with one of the worst fake news generators on the planet, the NYTimes. How much did the times pay this traitor?
Reagan had the Air Traffic Controllers.
Hopefully, Trump will have the CIA.
Go ahead — stage a walkout or mass resignation. We’ll find better people.
Indeed, any of them who would quit should probably have been fired long ago.
How about mass arrests for the
1) Murders at Benghazi?
2) Murders of Scott Rich and the other witnesses?
3) Sedition and treason?
THAT would be a good start.
But as Hillary infamously said (after her rape client passed his lie detector test) ‘it forever ruined my faith in lie detectors’. They don’t always out the liars.
So the liars extraordinaire are threatening to resign? Better hurry before The Donald says you’re Fired.
Good riddance, but that won't save any of those former CIA leftists from subsequent prosecution for subversion.
More evidence that Trump is the right man for this time.
Unfortunately, the CIA has become politicized! Not good! Let those who want to leave, leave! They’ll only hurt us in the long run.
A HUGE part of the swamp to be drained is the federal bureaucracy and a huge part of that is the Intel “community” including the CIA.
Yeah, but look at who said that...NYTimes...immediate Fake News alert.
They are all azzhats. Don’t ask me how I know, can’t tell ya, unlike Shitlerey ...
Polygraph test as sacrifice???
Most of the people I work with have no real problem passing a polygraph test once every five years.
The only ones who seem to have a problem is the ones who figure their job is about lying.
Good. We do not want a political CIA.
