    The intelligence community has long been a political football, but now it too is becoming political. That's dangerous.

    You're so far outmatched with that black and white thinking. That you didn't know there were shades of grey. Just that usual defining pattern of simpleness you come with. While trying to equate it to current events. Its the reason you avoided the questions. While you play on the beginners levels of consciousness.

    I believe I posted a book review on Legacy of Ashes a while back. Or it could have been a recent book on the same lines of the problems with the CIA.

    With shocking revelations that made headlines in papers across the country, Pulitzer-Prize-winner Tim Weiner gets at the truth behind the CIA and uncovers here why nearly every CIA Director has left the agency in worse shape than when he found it; and how these profound failures jeopardize our national security.

    Like I said, you are out of your depth. You're rushing to the defense of the same agencies who are conspiring against your president. You simply do not have what it takes to win this battle. You should save yourself some time and just admit defeat now, before they really turn up the heat on Trump.

    They've always been political. The CIA has been blackmailing and intimidating US politicians for decades.

    Wasn't aware of that. The FBI, with J Edgar, yes.

    Or of course there's always the simpler explanation that instead of the culmination of a decades long conspiracy to commit evil and fool the American people about it the information they have is true and they are doing their duty as agents of the US intelligence agencies to protect us by presenting it to our leadership.

    There is ample evidence that the CIA has committed many evil and deceptive acts. You've simply chosen to ignore that evidence.

    ...about it the information they have is true and they are doing their duty as agents of the US intelligence agencies to protect us by presenting it to our leadership.
    Occams razor is on my side.
    Occam's razor selects the hypothesis with the fewest assumptions, not the one that is the simplest per se. So your hypothesis, which is based on nothing but assumptions, is clearly ruled out in favor of my hypothesis, which is supported by a mountain of historical evidence cataloging the CIA's many, many nefarious activities, both domestically and abroad.

    Right.

    While they've been doing it forever, now they seem emboldened and drunk on their own power. They're not even making an effort to hide their agenda.

    Yeah Like you said which don't amount to much.....it was the simpleness that gave you away. Then the false equivalency about US agencies and how they have to counter other Countries agencies.
