First thing trump did I’ve agreed with. Do the NSA next.
If I was a Five Eyes nation, I’d be looking long and hard at reducing head count…or at least changing the name to “Four Eyes and an Asshole”

That band name goes hard
Hahahaha Lock it in and hit up suno.ai
at least they better be holding-back the intel they do have and are gathering on americans for the TLAs
The party of law and order is officially defunding the police. Great job!
CIA ain’t police
They kinda do like to play world secret police though.
His aide, according to the WSJ, said Trump’s CIA will have a greater focus on the Western Hemisphere, targeting countries not traditionally considered adversaries of the United States.
literally making our closest neighbors into enemies so he can be buddies with Putin and Kim
I feel like Putin Xi and dumbold divided up the globe and they’ll all focus on taking as much as possible in their sections
Of all the agencies that I thought would capitulate quickly, I’ve got to admit I’m a bit shocked by this one.
At the same time, I’m sure this is not the whole story.
Yeah, they killed Kennedy over a lot less, and this time they’re all at risk of losing their jobs and they’re just going to shrug it off?
They used up all their energy and resources on the 500 times they tried to murk Castro, they got no juice left.
the TLAs are the feds standing in the emperor’s and lord diaper’s way the most. justice is locked-down, as is enough of the courts; half of congress is in a daze and the moron majority is eating the orange poo; but the TLAs have off-the-book ops and funding to do ‘things’.
Well it is the CIA, it is plausible they’re just playing the game to stay on Trump’s good side. Maybe they ‘buyout’ a Joe and ‘rehire’ a Joey that just so happens to know everything Joe did, but ‘adores’ Trump for reasons
My first thought was: everyone in the CIA “retires” and gets “consulting” gigs with shell companies nobody has heard of.
Yeah, but who are those shell companies working for? A big selling point in the general buyouts is, “we want people out of govt service and in the private sector where they can do thier best work!”
I’m thinking we don’t want a bunch of freelance spies contracting to the highest bidder
I think the joke was the shell companies are all owned by the CIA. Hence the quotes around “retires” and “consulting”.
The CIA will just become even sketchier.
Why?
I think it’s not that far fetched to presume the CIA has major political power within the US, more than the EPA at least. If someone, they know how to assassinate a president or a billionaire and make it look like an accident.
Sure, but why would they want to do anything about Trump?
He’s eroding the US’ capability to coup and extract wealth from other countries. Trump is squandering all the power they built up on posturing and bullshit.
How is he doing that?
Reducing CIA headcount for example. But also, fracturing US alliances, stopping USAID, removing the US from international agreements that it could use as diplomatic soft power leverage, and just being a general jackass.
Reducing CIA headcount
So the reason they wouldn’t take buyouts is because they were offered?

“General jackassery” is not going to cause the CIA to assassinate a president. The CIA are generally jackasses lol. Fracturing alliances, I’m not sure that the CIA cares and I’m not sure how much of an effect his shenanigans will actually have in the long term. Some members of the CIA might prefer if he didn’t withdraw from international agreements, but in the grand scheme of things, I imagine it’s pretty small potatoes to them. The CIA certainly has the power to slap a president that gets out of line, but it’s not as if they micromanage every decision. Is any of that really enough to make it “shocking” that they’re cooperating?
If Trump’s really kneecapping the CIA that badly, I guess it’s the one good thing he’s done. More realistically, I assume he’s greenlighting them on all sorts of horrible shit behind closed doors and couldn’t be happier with him.
then, replenish the workforce with putin puppets and kgb assets.
The last president to do a mass firing at the CIA was Carter. Hopefully this turns out just as well for Trump.
I sincerely hope Trump doesn’t make it to 100 years old.
I agree, unless he ends up in jail, then I hope he grows very old.
If your neighbors are CIA it might be time to dox them
