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.

Oh shite! I didn’t think about that. I was going to rub your nose in it. 😄
Is it just me or did Trump just get on Marine One with the football?
Yes. He's still president for another 3 hours 40 minutes. He still has to have them with him until the stroke of noon.
Oh, I don’t know. You certainly made a lot of predictions based on what you were “hearing”. It wasn’t the voices in your head which were coming up with what you were posting on FR. You mentioned on a couple of occasions it was things you read or were otherwise privy to that the public at large was not.
Well supposedly he will be on AF1 at noon. Maybe its hasta la vista suckers. 😄
If you have evidence, sling it.
“I thought she was killed in a firefight in Frankfurt, Germany.”
It’s the CIA so you could be right!
frankfurt maybe fake news like Q or trump showing some backbone.
anyway .. for haspel it's mission accomplished. checks cleared. time to retire.
Didn’t like Trump, stayed there until the day he left and then quit.
OK, then.
