      After Jesse Ventura got elected Governor of Minnesota as an independent, CIA requested to meet with him because their analysts wanted to learn how he overcame the two party duopoly. He said one of the more interesting things about the meeting was "They were not what I expected. They were very ordinary-looking people, like the kind of people you'd see walking their dog, or who you'd wave to if they were your neighbors."

And those guys would sell their country out in a heartbeat to go from GS 16-1 to GS-16-2. That's why my wife and I took early retirement as soon as we could, before we went crazy.

    I don’t know. As a former Air Force B-52 officer, I had a TS-SCI security clearance. My understanding was that it was in force for five years and then had to be done again, which would make you good for another five years. And I only had access to TS info I was cleared to know, meaning only info I needed for my specific job. That’s what’s meant by “compartmented.” I couldn’t read up on UFOs or the JFK hit. I didn’t have clearance to know about that shit. And, once I got out of the Air Force, I no longer had access to any Top Secret or even classified information. None! The only thing that made having that clearance important in the civilian world was that your employer knew that the feds had done a fairly thorough background investigation on you and hadn’t found anything “bad.”

      I also had a TS from DHS. Your TS lasts 5 years. You have to go thru another full background check to keep your clearance going. It doesn't automatically renew itself. I don't think this guy knows what he's talking about. It's subtle mistakes like this that makes me believe that this guy might be full of crap

      You're correct, unless you join a psuedo government agency/contractor immediately after you leave service. Many reserve personnel have the leg up as they are able to be in the civilian job during their service and/or prior to leaving. I transitioned to a state NG and had acquired way more civilian contacts. During the past/current GWOT, those who get deployed to any combat theatre have been exposed to more contractors than any war or combat action prior. At my last FOB, there was a mix of State Dept, CIA, ODA, and contractors performing similar and simultaneous functions. Long story short, if your background investigation is recent enough and clearance is still current, a civilian transition into a similar or higher level role is very possible and seamless.

      The CIA spiraled out of control in the 20 years after WW2, when "National Security" was sufficient justification for the military-industrial complex to run wild. They became untouchable when they engineered the killing of JFK, which they did because he was set on reining them in after they went under his nose for the Bay of Pigs incident. I doubt the really out of control part is even under the CIA umbrella now, congress knows about the CIA and can try to regulate them.

    I had a TS/SCI clearance, when I retired. If I had a job set up, that required me to maintain my clearance and it had to have a connection to the Federal Government. My clearance would still need to be renewed every 5 years. If I did not have that kind of job set up, my clearance would disappear after either 2 years or if the clearance were due to be renewed, say in 6 months, it would be done and over with. All these so-called intel experts you see on the news, should have had their clearances removed as soon as they retired.

      You might be a top notch tier one guy but to pentagon people you are a grunt, and, do to class distinction, do not deserve the perk of maintaining clearance post exit.
      I am also sure that I do not need to tell you that most high ranking officers who are not elite qualified despise elites.

    Another way of describing how he spoke of the two levels of workers in the CIA is the Iron Law of Bureaucracy. It is not limited to the CIA, it is in effect in all government organizations.
    "Pournelle's Iron Law of Bureaucracy states that in any bureaucratic organization there will be two kinds of people:
    First, there will be those who are devoted to the goals of the organization. Examples are dedicated classroom teachers in an educational bureaucracy, many of the engineers and launch technicians and scientists at NASA, even some agricultural scientists and advisors in the former Soviet Union collective farming administration.
    Secondly, there will be those dedicated to the organization itself. Examples are many of the administrators in the education system, many professors of education, many teachers union officials, much of the NASA headquarters staff, etc.
    The Iron Law states that in every case the second group will gain and keep control of the organization. It will write the rules, and control promotions within the organization."
    The second group are the ones who get to the GS-15 and SES levels of the civil service. NB: I worked in the federal government for 23 years. The rule is truly ironclad.

    So this is a misnomer a security clearance can be removed after you leave your position if your security manager does it. Also clearances on the base level has a set time frame. But the network thing does exist. A lot of people are interested in hiring people with existing clearances because it does save them money as it can cost 10k to 120k depending on the type for an initial clearance. It is cheaper though to renew an existing clearance though.

If the Intelligence agencies are politicized, you will seldom have reliable, honest, and good intelligence. If the Department of Justice is politicized, you dissolve into injustice, tyranny, and a police state. If the Judiciary is politicized, you can lose rule of law, freedom, justice, and the end of a democratic republic.

      @@billseventy6825 there was a time when they would use regular army spec ops personnel, usually S.F. on an “as needed” basis for wet work. Some were officially dropped from army roles for the duration of the operation. It was referred to as “white washing.”
      When the U-2 was first deployed there were Air Force operated U-2’s and CIA operated U-2’s. All of the CIA pilots came out of the Air Force’s pilot pool but were officially discharged from the Air Force and worked directly for the CIA. This was referred to as “bleaching.”
      Through most of the history of Army S.F., training and leading indigenous personnel into direct insurgent/counter-insurgent operations has been handled by regular Army S.F. personnel. Payroll for the indigenous force is handled by CIA personnel. In addition, historically, for covert combat operations involving indigenous personnel procurement was also handled by CIA staff. I’ve heard them referred to as “bagmen”. It is not a complimentary moniker. Laos in the 1960’s is a good example. The CIA would convince the indigenous people to grow opium, opium would be sold for gold and gold would be used to procure weapons and equipment.
      The KGB was at times surprisingly uninvolved directly with wet work. They usually used Bulgarians for the dirty stuff.
      Not to say there were not cold blooded bastards in the KGB. Take a good look at Vladimir Putin’s eyes. Always reminded me of when a shark rolls that nictitating membrane over his eye right before he bites. Bulgarians were used when the Soviets felt they needed to bother with plausible deniability. I would not be surprised if the modern CIA contracts out to privates for the same reason.

      Oversight and accountability are extreme hindrances when dealing with things that involve a covert or clandestine nature. You have to move quickly and a lot of times do things that blur the lines of morality if you want to accomplish a goal and it’s literally impossible to do that if every two seconds you have to check in with a lawyer or bureaucrat in DC and ask “hey is it ok if I do X”. This is why the private sector is so vastly ahead of the gov when it comes to the creation and adoption of technology. Intelligence gathering is no exception.

Hell, they can go into a hearing and lie their asses off and not even catch a contempt of congress charge.

Yea, if no one “thinks of” a stupid tax law, you can’t evade it. People that think of these stupid laws are creating crime where there was none before. The fallacy you are swallowing is that it’s only “the wealthy” who have unrealized gains. Try and get your head around who has unrealized gains in this country. If you’re Joe Schmoe the plumber, saving for retirement, you have assets, and unrealized gains, that is your goal. Anyone who has any inkling of what an asset is, you’re against anyone having wealth, you’re not for this country. You need to go live in a communist country, and be happy not owning anything.

    This is one problem, they assume a junior sales can make 250 grand a year.....the nationwide average is 40to60 grand a year. The inflated salaries are in the upper east coast, and west coast. Alot of people i know would love to make a washington beaurocracy salary......

      It’s before taxes, and it is heavily taxed.
      The problem is the more you make, the more you’re exposed to people who make more.
      I grew up with a father that probably made 300-500k a year (in Georgia). We lived a very weird mix of rich and poor. Lived in a farm, all the boys had to pay for everything from the time we were 16 (started at 12, any food we ate that was at the kitchen table, clothes, anything we had to pay for), sisters were given brand new luxury cars (Lexus) for their birthdays and were given new vehicles when they totaled them or (DUI’ed). Pop was a sexist and didn’t mind telling my brothers and I this 😂!
      Anyways, while the boys tended to spend most of our time with blue collar farmer types my sisters went to private schools where the average student came from a $10M home. Made for interesting groups.

      He was talking about where you begin and then he mentioned that after 30 years of working in the government 160,000 so yeah he is accurate. There are plenty of people that just go into sales as a junior salesman and 30 years later will be making $250,000 a year in the right place especially if they are somehow involved directly with Wall Street. It can also be much much more.

      you are talking elite govies working their entire career (20+ years) living in expensive cities (e.g. DC) making the same as commercial senior engineers into their 8-10 year career. Although govies do get a decent pension while commercial side makes 5% 401k match at best
