If the truth about virtually everything has been forcibly occulted for thousands of years, it would seem necessary to gather a corps of talented skeptics and researchers to deoccult the truth.
If the truth about the oppression of our race turns out at its heart to be metaphysical, so be it.
Haspel not in attendance at latest Trump intelligence briefing: reports
CIA Director Gina Haspel was reportedly not in attendance for President Trump's daily in-person intelligence briefing on Friday amid speculation Trump is considering her firing.
Both CNN and NBC News reported that the meeting, organized by Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe, excluded Haspel. A senior administration official told CNN that her exclusion was not a good sign for the CIA chief even if her presence is not normally mandatory.
The news comes as the Trump administration undergoes a shakeup among its defense and intelligence leadership, with Defense Secretary Mark Esper fired earlier this week and top Pentagon officials since departing. The firing has been seen as the start of top Cabinet changes that also target Haspel and FBI Director Christopher Wray. Another Trump cybersecurity official is expecting his ouster as well.
Trump and his allies have long been critical of Haspel, but the president's frustration with his CIA chief reportedly began to bubble over after Haspel and other intelligence officials opposed Ratcliffe's decision to declassify documents related to the probe into the origins of the Russia investigation led by U.S. Attorney John Durham.
Still, Republicans have come to Haspel's defense amid speculation that Trump is considering her firing.
