CIA Director Gina Haspel, who has had an increasingly strained relationship with President Trump during the final year of his administration, announced Tuesday that she is leaving the agency.
Haspel did not articulate the reason for her departure, which comes on the last full day of Trump’s presidency, though Axios reported last week that she had threatened to resign in early December when Trump sought to install Kash Patel, a Trump loyalist and former aide to Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) as her deputy.
According to Axios, Trump “spent his last year in office ruminating over Haspel,” while many of his allies echoed the president’s doubts about her loyalty.
Haspel was confirmed as the first female director of the CIA in May 2018.

Lol, so does everybody, and, apparently, no one cares.
She’ll be CNN guest/NYT opinion writer director emeritus deep state flunkie. Probably pays really well.
You’re late to that party...lol.
See upthread 😂😉
Story of my life...
Hard to believe Plugs wouldn’t want Gina.
Breathtaking is not the word I would use. It’s maddeningly disgusting, evil and despicable, done by disgusting, evil, despicable people.
After inflation, how much did it cost?
Anyone still left over will be fired a few minutes after Biden gets to the oval office (maybe after his lunchtime nap) so they can be replaced with unquestionably loyal apparatchiks. His handlers undoubtedly already have all the papers ready to go. Likewise the first order of business for the departments will be cleaning out any and all “disloyal” federal employees by whatever means possible.
The GOPe poseurs who whined (in public, also on here) for the last four years that Trump probably wished he had people who would actually implement his policies instead of doing whatever they felt like, because obviously reining in the agencies would have been some kind of strongman dictator “consolidation of power” sort of thing, will have absolutely nothing to say about Biden stacking the agencies from top to bottom with his peeps and then mounting a full-scale assault against Americans.
That’s interesting. McInerney is saying she never made it back from Germany?
McInernrey is a 3 star nutjob who talked about the CIA shootout. I could give a dam about his previous service or rank. If you make crap up, the credibility is all you’ve got to back your reputation.
She shared her box lunch with me in 88 on a C-141 out of Incirlik AB to Aviano Italy ...... half a mystery meat sandwich and a oatmeal cookie.
Aww. Now Biden can’t keep her on as a feather in his diversity cap.
Cool. :)
She seems to have been well liked by people who worked with her.
I don’t know the situation in her office from the inside, but many of the media companies have been posting too much gossip and speculation about President Trump’s relationships with his department heads.
Maybe some of President Trump’s appointees are resigning simply to avoid being grilled and manipulated by the Democrats.
He wants his own person, I guess.
Still, we'll find out in about five hours is either one will be CIA director, won't we?
Yes we will. I have faith in Donald Trump. If he lets us down that’s on him not me.
General Officer is a very unique club. I don’t know how much you know about what it takes to become a General Officer, but the possibility of the man being nuts is low.
In addition, it’s a factional fraternity (becoming a woke sorority, but only as window dressing).
He’s got position, a rolodex, and he got his third star. I suppose you think Flynn is nuts too, right? He’s got four.
If you have evidence, sling it.
Well if there's a plan to retain the government through military coup then all concerned are keeping it very close to their vests. Right around 4 hours to go.
Well they certainly wouldn’t advertise it. Our TV signal is acting up. I hope its because they are getting ready to take it down.
If you're right then can the internet or satellites be far behind? How will you be able to tell me you told me so?
