Many of the 37 officials targeted this week had worked on Russia only tangentially and a long time ago. To lose a clearance is a “career ender”, says one former CIA officer. “Even the cleaning crews have clearance” https://t.co/3WQK3O8Zvz ...

But now, a top CIA analyst who coauthored the Jan. 2017 report on Russian interference reveals, for first time, that a "pathological" Brennan put analysts "under duress" to cook the intel. https://t.co/Kk84RCE6QZ ...

And yes I know "enemies, foreign and domestic" is in the Oath of Office. But the CIA is very, very specifically focused on foreign -- that's why we allow it a Department of Dirty Tricks power abroad. The deliberate "at home" focus is unbelievably unseemly for a CIA chief. ...

I also repeat that when mainstream media widely reported allegations of Jeffrey Epstein’s ties to intelligence, there is virtually no chance CIA didn’t review its own files to see if the allegations were true. Those search results could be declassified.https://t.co/6E65kN5yhTMike Benz (@MikeBenzCyber):How, after all these years, has no CIA Name Trace been done on Jeffrey Epstein? https://t.co/o7XELWtxfD ...
