Yes, we are affected by #instagramdown, too. No, we didn’t cause it. No, we can’t fix yours. Did you try turning it off and back on again?

The oldest structure on CIA grounds is a 4 story Georgian Revival house built in 1926.
It was occupied by Margaret Scattergood & Florence Thorne for 53 years. Neither could have predicted who would become their neighbors.

Let’s debunk some misconceptions people have about CIA & the women & men working here. We’re not gun-toting, globetrotting, martini-drinking spies so frequently portrayed on the silver screen. Instead, we're ordinary Americans, doing extraordinary things.

A rare spotting this evening of #CIADeer on a mission for food under the cover of night. Like all good CIA officers, they completed their task and disappeared without a trace.

A perk of working for CIA is world travel. Apparently that sometimes extends to other realms…
“Little birds,” be on the lookout for a former deputy director of ours wandering through #Westeros in tonight’s episode of #GameOfThrones.
We asked our disguise shop to show us an example of a clever costume by changing the appearance of one of our officers.
We should have specified that we meant an officer WITHOUT a tail. ☺️

You all seem to have an eye for finding the differences. Let us know how many you find.
Take a breath.
The work day can be overwhelming. We offer our officers a quiet space to step away and catch their breath. Deep breathing is one of the easiest forms of relaxation you can practice and use on your own.

Our officers do their work with no expectation of recognition, knowing that if we make the ultimate sacrifice, the details of our efforts are likely to be known to just a very few.
We honor those Agency officers who gave their lives in the service of our country.
