CIA's "Holistic" Job Cuts Under Trump Scrutiny

The Trump administration aims to cut approximately 1,200 positions at the CIA, part of a broader strategy targeting alleged agency bloat in the U.S. intelligence community. The administration's plans for reductions, while not publicly confirmed by CIA, reportedly include relying on natural attrition and already implemented dismissals impacting diversity initiatives. Critics have highlighted a shift from traditional espionage values to what some perceive as a "woke" culture. These job cuts underscore ongoing debates over national security priorities and institutional efficiency.
