Yea, well I'm sorry, but I'm too busy being outraged by gay abortions or toxic masculinity to pay attention to this. And when it comes time to vote, I'm voting either on one inflammatory issue, or doing what's best for me and voting for whoever offers me more economic incentives.

Not sure how that's relevant at all? The CIA has often operated far outside the law regardless of who is in office.

The poster you were responding to seemed to be attempting to illustrate an explanation of why the CIA gets away with that regardless of whoever is in office, so your post explains exactly how it's relevant rather than offering a reason to doubt it's relevance.

That was actually part of the point I was trying to make.
