      The "media ecosystem" has never been "pure." But its corruption has been intensified by media organs valorizing, amplifying, and employing huge numbers of intelligence officials since 2016 -- enabling them to shape public opinion on an unprecedented scalehttps://twitter.com/john_sipher/status/1135519625725169664 …

      Jeez, I didn't realize the "media ecosystem" was so pure. Am I polluting it? Are journalists the only people who should express their views? I apologize if I've offended anyone for expressing my thoughts. https://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1135286951844749313 …

      In the age of Twitter/podcasts, these officials take the quasi-journalistic authority that has been ascribed to them by media outlets, and leverage it into large personal platforms -- enabling them to shape public opinion. Exactly what the CIA has been trying to do for decades

      Pre-Trump, there would have been a lot more concern about the insidious implications of this trend. But many of these intelligence officials have an aggressively "anti-Trump" point of view, so the media doesn't just overlook the obvious corruption -- they actively facilitate it

          So yeah, I object to the unprecedented co-optation of the American media ecosystem by security state officials, and will continue pointing out the danger of this, even when such officials like John Sipher tweet tendentious things about mehttps://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1135249782337921024 …

          Of course, the last President who had an entire term of "peacetime" was Carter, so that doesn't help either.

          Considering what had happened ONE MONTH BEFORE Harry Truman wrote that op ed for Washington Post, takes Harry Trumans words to another level. Especially since Truman's op ed was ONLY IN the Dec 1963 WaPo 1st printing. WaPo pulled Truman's opinion piece from subsequent issues.

          They are only supposed to collect information (Intelligence). Yet they are "operational". Including engaging in operations in which they assassinate people.

          Wait, Truman predates 2016 and describes a phenomenon in existence prior to 2016. I’m trying to figure out how your narrative about the Deep State somehow implicates the entire Left as your Twitter-ouvre has been consistently implying.

          Truman was concerned about the CIA's mission creep, specifically that "the last thing we needed was for the CIA to be seized upon as something akin to a subverting influence in the affairs of other people" The CIA being on TV all the time is exactly what he feared.

          the Truman administration was one of the worst this country has had. If he didn't want to have a police state agency why did he setup the CIA / NSA.
