The CIA verses the USA

.

Trying to prevent a lawful President from taking office, based on fabricated lies may work in.....Chile or Iran, but not in the USA.

This is a serious offense, with serious consequences for the CIA.

After the Church Committee reports of 1975, 800 CIA officers were removed from their post by the Carter administration in 1977.

The Church Committee was the United States Senate Select Committee to Study Governmental Operations with Respect to Intelligence Activities, a U.S. Senate committee chaired by Idaho Senator Frank Church (D-ID) in 1975. A precursor to the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, the committee investigated intelligence gathering for illegality by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), National Security Agency (NSA) and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) after certain activities had been revealed by the Watergate affair....wikipedia.

the election of Jimmy Carter in 1976, his campaign promise to clean the “cowboy” elements out of the Central Intelligence Agency and his “human rights” policies alarmed the faction of the CIA loyal to George Bush. Bush was CIA director under Richard Nixon. Finally, the firing of CIA Director George Bush by Carter, and the subsequent “Halloween Massacre” in which Carter fired over 800 CIA covert operatives in 1977, angered the “cowboys” beyond all measure. That was Carter’s October surprise, 800 firings on Halloween 1977........Global Research.

Just like Lyndon Johnson, Carter made the mistake of having on the one hand make sincere election promises of fix and focus on America, but at the same time become embroiled and mesmerized by the 'experts' and insiders on foreign policy and military adventures.

But who could blame Carter, who himself was a former naval Intelligence man, and beyond the congenial smile and peanut farmer persona from the South, he was very much a cloak and dagger man.

However, the self-professed advocate for human rights demonstrated quite the penchant for bloodshed. Carter proved remarkably generous at providing financial, military, diplomatic and ideological support for fascist dictatorships that tortured and killed millions of members of their domestic populations in an effort to crush popular movements for social justice. Some of the regimes he backed carried out mass slaughter that amounted to genocide.....Counterpunch.

Will President Trump be equally mesmerized and embroiled in foreign mis-adventure, which ultimately led to the down fall of the Carter administration into a sorry one term mess, with the aid of the CIA?

As Trump-CIA Showdown Escalates, Expect Heads to Roll

German media is reporting that the CIA wants to prevent the president-elect and his top intel nominees Flynn and Pompeo from cracking down on the way they do business

German online media is reporting on the growing confrontation between the CIA and President-elect Donald Trump.
Citing the Washington Post, German Economic News related that the rank and file of the CIA is not sure if they will be able to work under President Trump:
The Washington Post, usually kept well informed by intelligence circles, is reporting great apprehension in the CIA over the president-elect. The Post cites an anonymous CIA man as saying, "I don't know what the endgame is. After the inauguration we will be in uncharted waters."
These reports come as the CIA, or elements of it in collaboration with the mainstream media, have virtually declared open war on the President-elect, attempting to discredit his election victory and either prevent his inauguration or handicap his influence by alleging serious interference by Russia in the election.
And it's not only Trump himself they are worried about. Trump's picks for national security advisor and CIA director are also provoking a serious backlash:
One of the reasons why the CIA is in a panic might be the naming of General Michael Flynn as national security advisor, according to the Washington Post. Flynn failed as director of the CIA [actually DIA - trans.] because the intelligence apparatus was not willing to carry out his reform plans. Fear is now spreading through the CIA's ranks that Flynn could crack down on the organization. 
According to the Post, the CIA doubts that its new director Mike Pompeo will be able to forge a working relationship between the Trump White House and the intelligence agencies.
If Donald Trump can weather the blows until January 20th, the CIA is likely to find it has engineered a self-fulfilling prophesy.
As I wrote in an article last week just as the Russian hacking propaganda onslaught entered full gear, Donald Trump is not a man who cowers when attacked or turns the other cheek in the face of massive betrayal.
A thorough purge of the CIA will probably follow, which will leave the Deep State reeling in Trump's first 100 days - a move that hopefully will bode well for the new president's aims to restart detente with Russia, abandon regime change and seek a new relationship with the world.
