White House blocks CIA chief from Senate briefing on Saudi Arabia: Report

CIA Director Gina Haspel prevented from briefing US senators on Saudi Arabia's involvement in Jamal Khashoggi's murder, The Guardian reports

The White House has prohibited CIA Director Gina Haspel from appearing before the United States Senate to brief the lawmakers on journalist Jamal Khashoggi’s murder, The Guardian reported on Tuesday.

The newspaper, citing unidentified officials, said a classified US Senate briefing on Wednesday by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Secretary of Defense James Mattis on US relations with Saudi Arabia would not include Haspel.

The exclusion of Haspel is uncommon and signals an ongoing rift between US President Donald Trump and his country's intelligence officials over the Khashoggi murder.

--The suspicion remains, they had a hand in JFK's death


--They completely blew, the downfall of the USSR.

--They completely missed the gathering evidence about 9/11/2001

--They failed for WMDs in Iraq


--There are very likely people inside the agency, more loyal to Brennan, Obama Bush, and Clinton, than to this sitting President..

I look at the shady information they put out and add in the low level pieces of garbage that have been running the place and I have no faith in anything they have to sell.
