Agreed 💯 we need more people who think & act like him.❤
The calcification of structures and lack of entrepreneurship is prevalent in large corporations as well. The people who advance are not in the streets where the battle for business takes place.
The farm is in my hometown and I recently worked at a pizza joint in town and we would deliver to the farm almost nightly. Of course, this is only a snippet of a sample but judging from the demeanor of people over the phone placing orders it's safe to say the agency is not getting the best and brightest. For hobbies though I am interested in geopolitics as well as self defense so I've actually come across a lot of people who used to be in the community like Mr. Faddis and they've said similar things about how the agency needs to reevaluate their TTPs but a great many of the former case officers have expressed concern of the overwhelming mediocrity among recruits entering the clandestine service......
How does this relate to 2020 China? Is there an update with this fantastic speaker? Has Trump fixed the CIA with Pompeo's influence? Was Gina Haskell an excellent case officer and horrible manager? Just looking for an update relating to China.

Perhaps she was but I suspect she was a ladder-climbing politician...

Hey Sam... the FBI is NO LONGER REACTIVE...! Lord knows they are hunting down subversives at school board meetings and Trump rallies on weekly schedules...

Sorry, last comment was intended to address Sam's comment re the FBI being a reactive agency...
This is all very fine, unfortunately it is dated... it is 7 years old... my question is... did Trump do anything to correct this situation... equally importantly, if not more so, has Traitor Joe...? My suggestion... Ksh Patel...
What are we talking about again sir? Islam we're worried about the Islamic people? What about your friends and family what if we're being extorted by some foreign entity? Is your phone really secure? Because nowadays hackers are really savvy? I'm scared and you should be too. One example your phone that app you just downloaded, did you read the privacy policy and terms, do you always agree? We're at war with ourselves and you know it
Problem, reaction, solutions boom most Muslim countries is in war
