Something weird happened when we learned that the CIA was probably spying on a Congressional committee tasked with investigating CIA abuses, including allegations of torture -- you know, like beyond all the torture we already knew about.
They do not appear to do a good job of looking at all the possible outcomes of thie nefarious actions on behalf of FREEDOM or their own interests or whatever the fuck it is that motivates the creeps.
It's the Secret Fifth Amendment: You can't prosecute the CIA for commiting crimes when they're committed in order to cover up other CIA crimes.
That's totally what Thomas Jefferson and Jeebus (secretly) intended.
