CIA not “reformable.” It can only be eliminated.

 + There’s a comforting myth among liberal “good government” types that hearings & commissions will reform bad behavior, the classic example being the Church/Pike Hearings blowing the lid off the CIA. But a couple of years later, the newly “reformed” and chastised Agency was running its biggest covert OP ever in Afghanistan, meddling in the 1980 elections, flagrantly flouting a Congressional ban on funding the Contras and managing death squads across Central America. It’s almost as if the public ritual of reform gave the Agency cover to engage in even more malign endeavors. These agencies are not “reformable.” They can only be eliminated or, at the very least, defunded.
