Multiple former CIA directors planned a smear campaign against a Presidential candidate, then planned a law fare coup against same ELECTED President
CIA has lied about information concerning Biden corruption

60-years ago, this would have meant instant firing... Possibly with prejudice...

everywhere since shortly after WWII, when the agency was created.
True.
Try 1947.
The CIA bureaucrat, a woman, was for years in charge of the preparation of the PDB (President’s Daily Brief), the most important document the Agency places before the President every morning. It usually supports some aspect that the CIA is pushing. Should she retain her job, one will have a perfect view of how the CIA operates.
