What needs to change at the CIA? You've all been asking me for my views on the great government disruption of 2025 and here are my thoughts. I come from a nonpartisan angle and as you will see, have a balanced and nuanced voice on this issue that has turned WDC and the world upside down.

With the radical changes under the new administration, some are wondering: are we heading in the right direction? Is U.S. intelligence on the right path, or are things going south? I dive into what’s really happening and what it means for our national security. Huge thanks to CLRCUT for having me on to discuss it all.

So USAID is NOT a front for the CIA.

CIA Director John Ratcliffe says he wants more covert action, “going places no one else can go and doing things no one else can do.” Okay, got that. His ideal officer would be “a PhD who could win a bar fight.” Even better. But who does he think will accomplish these daring missions after his ill-planned move to cut the agency’s workforce?

The CIA last week sent buyout offers to its case officers around the world, and as you’d expect, some of the best of them are looking for work elsewhere. Meanwhile, the agency meekly agreed to turn over data identifying its recent hires to Elon Musk’s auditors (and whatever foreign spies can hack their systems). Perhaps worst of all, the U.S. DOGE Service commissars reportedly gained access to Treasury payments data that might reveal the agency’s deep-cover officers and the assets they recruit.

‘Cuban Twitter’ and Other Times USAID Pretended To Be an Intelligence Agency​

Foreign governments have long accused the U.S. Agency for International Development of being a front for the CIA or other groups dedicated to their collapse. In the case of Cuba, they appear to have been right.
