Whenever I go past the Bedminster, NJ office parks, I wonder how many units have foreign SIGINT ops (Trump Bedminster is about a half mile down the road).
Malpractice by the US intel community if they don’t maintain *very* good relations with those landlords.

20 years ago I held a TS/SCI clearance with the 97th Intelligence Squadron.
Real-time signals intel under NSA.
If we had even talked vaguely about classified data outside channels, we’d be done.
OPSEC was sacred. Still should be.

When the CIA’s offering buyouts across the board, it’s not “restructuring”—it’s gutting expertise. You don’t rebuild trust or intel muscle by pushing the pros out the door.

🔑 premises in declassified #IntelCommunity memo from April '25 concluding Maduro’s regime may "tolerate", but probably doesn't "direct" #TrenDeAragua (or members' migration to #USA):
Contrary reports were unverified and may be lies to reduce punishment.
