I think he saw what was coming. I wish he had disbanded the CIA.

Yes, I think he knew. He should have just rounded up the Marines and done it - no declaration of intentions.

In the Shipp lectures, the CIA had already gotten out of control under Truman a few years after its creation - and he regretted it.

Ship also stated that Eisenhower actually called it the Military Congressional Industrial Complex. They took over congress basically - and he speaks about that in detail.

Very interesting stuff!
