Ex-CIA Analyst Warns of Intelligence Community Interference in 2024 Election
John Gentry points to politicization and DEI efforts within agencies as a significant problem, citing the Hunter Biden laptop incident as an example.
- Ex-CIA analyst John Gentry warns that the intelligence community will likely interfere in the 2024 election, similar to their efforts in 2020.
- Gentry suggests that the politicization of intelligence agencies, including the CIA, has become a significant problem due to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) efforts.
- He cites the example of the Hunter Biden laptop incident in 2020, where 51 former intelligence officials signed a letter discrediting the laptop's contents, which he believes was done to help the Biden campaign.
- Gentry points out that former CIA Director John Brennan and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper were key drivers of the politicization of intelligence agencies.
- He also mentions that the DEI and politicization within the intelligence agencies have had a negative effect on morale among rank-and-file workers.
