The Chinese government systematically dismantled C.I.A. spying operations in the country starting in 2010, killing or imprisoning more than a dozen sources over two years and crippling intelligence gathering there for years afterward.
Current and former American officials described the intelligence breach as one of the worst in decades. It set off a scramble in Washington’s intelligence and law enforcement agencies to contain the fallout, but investigators were bitterly divided over the cause. Some were convinced that a mole within the C.I.A. had betrayed the United States. Others believed that the Chinese had hacked the covert system the C.I.A. used to communicate with its foreign sources. Years later, that debate remains unresolved.
But there was no disagreement about the damage. From the final weeks of 2010 through the end of 2012, according to former American officials, the Chinese killed at least a dozen of the C.I.A.’s sources. According to three of the officials, one was shot in front of his colleagues in the courtyard of a government building — a message to others who might have been working for the C.I.A.
Still others were put in jail. All told, the Chinese killed or imprisoned 18 to 20 of the C.I.A.’s sources in China, according to two former senior American officials, effectively unraveling a network that had taken years to build.

Likely Obama & Co told the Chinese who the spies were.

Talibama years.
Wow. No leakers in the Chinese government.
Maybe Trump could hire them to stop the leaks.

Someone (or several someones) should be executed for that treasonous, wanton destruction of our National Security!
Don’t believe these Lying Leftist Media outlets that proved themselves during the 2016 campaign to be operatives of the DNC and intentional liars. They are presumed to be lying and we should presume what they publish is a lie. The presumption can only be rebutted with the outlet providing clear and convincing evidence they are not lying.
Can we limit posting these b/s sources? We should find and post reliable sources that have already deconstructed the lie and replaced it with the truth and with a headline that says the truth.
The CIA probably has Chinese on staff reporting everything they know back to China. Everyday.

Yep. No chink in the armor.
At one point, every single Cuban “asset” was actually a double agent reporting to Castro. There were more than 50 of them. The CIA is no different than any other government bureaucracy.
I heard an old timer say that the CIA’s downfall began when they moved into that giant palace in McLean. When they were squirreled away in anonymous little offices all over DC the decentralization led to more independent thought and better morale. They were also grownups back then.
So, they killed a bunch of brave people through incompetence. Who cares? The important thing is that now we have transgender CIA officers!

“...Likely Obama & Co told the Chinese who the spies were.....”
More likely, Hitlery sold the names/info to them for a big cash donation to the Clinton Foundation, then kicked a percentage of it back to the ever so “holy one” with the jug ears.
I wonder how much Hillary was paid for their names?
Wow. Good catch. Thanks for the info!
That’s infuriating.
You sound like a liberal, wanting to “protect” others by controlling what they read.
You fight your enemy by studying him, what he writes, what he says, etc., not by covering your eyes like a child, hoping he’ll go away.

“So who was our president from the final weeks of 2010 through the end of 2012.”
First hint, it wasn’t Trump!
From the final weeks of 2010 through the end of 2012, according to former American officials, the Chinese killed at least a dozen of the C.I.A.’s sources. According to three of the officials, one was shot in front of his colleagues in the courtyard of a government building — a message to others who might have been working for the C.I.A.
