The spy agencies have the ability to expose what Trump is up to.

All the governments that the agency have toppled over the years, and *this* is the one they choose to leave alone?

Lack of spies = less eyes on Russian interference. The man is wholly owned by Putin but is too stupid and arrogant to see through his manipulative techniques.

I am sure AI can replace the spy. Just like how we can use AI for park rangers.

This country so fucked. Everything being done right now is to weaken america. Why? I really don’t know, but add it all up, what of any of these decisions is making america “great” again?

Well I am sure he thinks there is no need to have anyone watching the Russians and Putin, they are ‚good friends’…

Trump does not want our nation to be safe and strong. He just wants no oversight or laws to control how international autocrats and mega-billionaires dominate everything.

Wants to keep us dumb to what Russian is doing. Who else would benefit from this? Not the USA.

Ah yes, I am sure there will be no negative consequences to making hundreds of people whose entire job was espionage and planning the overthrow of governments free agents.

Very good, Krasnov. Doing your master’s bidding.

In my view, cutting 1,200 jobs from the CIA isn’t just some random belt-tightening. This is part of a pattern with Trump that’s been going on for decades and looks more and more like he’s acting in the interests of Russia, not the U.S.
People forget that Trump’s connections to Russia go way back—to the late ’80s when the Soviets first started trying to cultivate him, e.g., his assigned code name: Krasnov. Since then, he’s had shady business ties with Russian oligarchs, tons of cash from questionable sources – many connected to the Russian mob – and he’s parroted Kremlin talking points for decades (like bashing NATO and supporting Putin publicly).
Now in his second term, Trump’s pushing to gut U.S. intelligence agencies, especially the CIA. That’s not just weakening the “deep state”—it’s dismantling one of the main institutions that keeps tabs on foreign adversaries like Russia. It sure as hell looks like he’s helping Putin by kneecapping the very agencies designed to protect U.S. national security.
At some point, it stops looking like coincidence and starts looking like what it probably is: the slow-motion sabotage of America’s intel community by someone who’s been compromised for a long time. Whether you call it treason or just a decades-long con, the result is the same—Putin wins, and the U.S. loses.

Bobby Jr hasn’t explained to Donnie what happened to his dad and uncle when they went after the CIA, has he?

To be fair, he reduced the CIA workforce when he sold confidential information from his MaraLago bathroom.
It makes me wonder, how many stars on the CIA memorial wall are attributed to him selling out our spies?

Better to be fired than sent abroad and have your name and position given to Vladimir

Why maintain an agency that promotes democracy around the world when you’re actively trying to dismantle it.
Heritage Foundation needs to be designated a hostile domestic terrorist group NOW.
You don’t need spies when you’ve joined the enemy.
But you do need more “domestic” enforcement.

That’s what Putin wanted

As has been said by others, whether he is or isn’t a Russian asset, you would never know the difference.

The US government, intelligence services, defence, and legal system is being torn apart by a Russian asset.

people are talking about Russia like that’s what Putin wants but the worst IMO is weakening CIA also weaks the intelligence around the world, these agencies of american allies like british they need to share informations about someone, or some terrorist group, or some country like Iran, Russia or China. So, will be bad for american allies too.

Trump is a major threat to national security. He is deliberately sabotaging US intelligence and US alliances.

Right wing commentator Charles Krauthammer coined what he called the Unipolar Moment. That is where the US had no real geopolitical rival. We could call the shots. Maintaining it and exploiting it was the entire basis for the Bush Administration. Between that and free markets, that was the Republican platform.
In a few short months, Trump as flushed all that down the toilet. He has ruined America on the global stage politically and economically and has given China the keys to the world.
