CIA telling disgruntled Russians ‘we’re open for business,’ top spook says

Are you a Russian opposed to Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine? The Central Intelligence Agency wants you!

“We’re looking around the world for Russians who are as disgusted with that as we are,” David Marlowe, the CIA’s deputy director of operations, told an audience during a recent discussion at George Mason University’s Hayden Center. “Because we’re open for business.”

In his first public remarks since his appointment last year, Marlowe said that Putin’s invasion of Ukraine has been an abject failure and that Western intelligence services should make the most of it by enlisting agents from among Russians fed up with the Kremlin strongman’s regime. The remarks were first reported by the Wall Street Journal.

“Putin was at his best moment the day before he invaded,” Marlowe said, arguing that the Russian president had the ability to put pressure on Ukraine and NATO, and demonstrate his country’s strength. “He squandered every single bit of that.”

Operation Paperclip v2.0

But, really, not merely the second time we’ve tried to scoop up bad people and have them assist us promoting “our democracy”.

And then we have the audacity to complain about Russia interfering in elections (when they weren’t even doing it in any meaningful way).

Good luck, CIA, not too many black or hispanic LGBTQ+ Russians around. Can’t violate your DEIA policies.

To any Russians thinking of joining the CIA—just remember you are as disposable as Lee Harvey Oswald—you make the perfect patsy.

“Open for business” looking for “White supremacists” in America?

Russia and the US are enemies. That's why we have nuclear missiles pointed at each other.

Yeah, it’s strange how some people act as if the Russians have ever apologized for openly trying to overthrow and conquer every other country on the planet in the quite recent past.
