Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

    emptywheel Retweeted CIA

    Maybe if the CIA is so bugged that everyone thinks all CIA officers are gun-toting operatives recruiting agents, they should stop cooperating with so many Hollywood movies depicting just that?https://twitter.com/CIA/status/1034866610283180032 …

    emptywheel added,

    Myth: All CIA officers recruit & handle agents. Fact: Only some officers recruit & handle agents, which is the job of an operations officer. The number of employees at CIA is classified, but the variety of careers here is similar to major corporations. http://1.usa.gov/1qOxdOa

        Maybe CIA can cooperate on a full-length FX series about a CIA economist?

        "I'm still working on the 50 page analysis about oil pipelines in Sudan" just doesn't have the same feel to it. Though holy shit this is going to blow back on us could be an arthouse flick

        Even if the last season of Homeland was ridiculous, I bet applications for jobs at CIA have gone up 20% since it started airing.

        I've always wondered if Homeland caused folks suffering from bipolar to apply?

        Read that a bipolar support group contacted Homeland show-runners to express their concern that Claire Danes might actually have the disorder.

        They agressively recruit U of MI engineering grads. No Econ grads that I know of, tho’. 😅
