As a former DOD asset, it would be hard for me to quantify just how much I detest the structure of the State Department.
Way back when, when the CIA lost major credibility with the DOD, it was mostly because State was secretly funding them to produce “biased intel” that supported whatever State wanted them to support.
The “new” CIA whores were very happy to find another sugar daddy source, which wasn't at all concerned with truth, ethics or accountability, much less the USA Constitution.
I had a sneaking suspicion that my rhetorical question had an affirmative answer. :-)
