    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
