Since when does the CIA get directly involved in overt foreign policy? It’s obvious that they have too much time on their hands. When that occurs, they are simply wasting tax dollars. Cut the CIA budget by 75% and Americans will be safer and freer.

Burns went to Beijing to meet with his Chinese counterparts “to emphasize the importance of maintaining open lines of communication and intelligence channels,”

Maybe he really went there to pick up 'the big guys' cut of the action...There's too much heat on Biden to take large sums of cash and try to launder them. Besides, the CIA can use their 'kickbacks' from this deed - Biden keeps his payoffs word.

Maybe the CIA Chief went to collect a few million for himself.

I said that tongue in cheek.

Many “secrets” aren’t secrets from a threat. The threat knows full well.

Many so called “secrets” are to keep the public dumb, so that decision makers have the freedom in decision making and don’t get scrutinized. In some cases it’s even to protect them from legal recourse.

If there is no future operational information, no source, no technical details that aren’t already well known anyhow, it has no business being “secret.” The public has a RIGHT to know what their elected or public officials are doing on their behalf and with their tax dollars.

These folks work for the public, not the other way around.
