The CIA Is About to Get a Trump Makeover Spy agency’s workforce receives buyout-style offer

WASHINGTON—The Central Intelligence Agency offered buyouts to its entire workforce Tuesday, in what officials said is a bid to bring the agency in line with President Trump’s priorities, including targeting drug cartels.

It must be nice to be a public servant.

I am turning 64 shortly. If someone offered me eight months salary with bennies, to leave early? My response would, ‘Where do I sign up?’

I am very suspicious of this one, sounds like a physical form of some kind of limited hang out.

Once CIA always CIA. This must be eyed with great suspicion.

Very small price to pay to get it over, without fighting with the courts.

“Not much we can do about those contracts.”

The CIA employees are not under contract or job protection.

Will they clear out the 6th floor?
I actually figure these people will just do the same stuff they do now, only under “civilian” guise.

Definitely.

Mulroney did that in d’Ottawa over 30 years ago. Fired a bunch of ‘swivel servants’ and hired most back on contact. Saved greatly on the costs of not paying ‘bennies’ and, being on contact, firing became quick, easy, and cheap.

SOP for many in the private sector.

This is actually no different from the buyout that was offered a few days ago. That was a universal buyout offer as well, at least for the departments which it covered. I guess the earlier EO didn’t cover the CIA.

We’ll see. No doubt there is lots of data, memos, files and financials etc they’ll need to go through. Probably need to bring quite a few back to testify.

I have no problem with any of this. I was Overt, and the clan people were the worst liars, scum and self promoting a******s on the face of the Earth. They would lie to everyone, throw money around like confetti, and ruin everyplace they touched.

All the clan thought they were James or Jane Bond reborn. All the overt thought they were John and Jane Wayne, saving the USA. Totally diffferent mind sets.
