  9. foreignpolicy.com/2026/07/10/c. How NOT to launch a clandestine mission! Kim Philby didn't need to betray ANY of it, it was so badly organised! "Far from the buttoned-up, bureaucratized #spying of the later #ColdWar period, the early post-war #MI6 & #CIA were an almost shambolic bunch. With little oversight, especially on the #US side, these #agencies could concoct whatever schemes & plans they fancied... they were less James Bond, more Monty Python..."

  11. Marxist-Leninist talking points against the New Left/Postmodernists/french often are just recycled rightist talking points, except with CCF being blamed instead of OSF. It is worth noting that CCF promoted mostly liberal, not New Left, philosophers, mostly in the so-called "analytic" tradition. They did not invent Structural Marxism, critical theory, micropolitics, perspectivism or whatever else. They supported liberals, especially liberal analytic philosophers. #CIA #politics #anarchism #communism #socialism #philosophy #conspiracy

  13. Very few people realise the #CIA has a venture (read vulture) capital arm.

  15. The warnings were there. CIA officers saw the threat. They raised it. The system was too slow to act in time.

  19. I love this phrase:

    "presumption of regularity”

    It is in the lawsuit, filed by former CIA Director John Brennan against the DOJ and Trump administration, it states that the Trump/DOJ can no longer be trusted - the DOJ "no longer deserves the presumption of regularity”.

    For lawyers, the phrase “presumption of regularity” has a specific legal meaning.

    It refers to the longstanding principle that government officials are generally presumed to perform their duties lawfully and in good faith unless compelling evidence suggests otherwise.

  23. Facing indications that the #DOJ could soon seek to indict him, fmr #CIA dir #JohnBrennan took the unusual step of asking a federal court to intervene before any charges get filed.

    In a DC lawsuit, Brennan’s attys asked a judge to order top ofcls at DOJ to preserve all records related to the investigation of the Obama-era #intelligence director. They intend to use those files as part of a defense argument that any prosecution of Brennan stems from a vindictive drive by #Trump seeking revenge.
