Trump Purges US National Intelligence

"The deep state firings have begun." CNN reports mass layoffs at the US National Intelligence Agency.

On Donald Trump's direct order, acting Director Bill Pulte demanded a 'get out' list of employees on his first day on the job, striking at key structures: the Counterintelligence Center and the Combating Terrorism Center.

Democratic representatives in Congress are already sounding the alarm, declaring that this large-scale purge of professional personnel is completely destroying the national security system and threatening the very American state.
