Next Episode: Islamophobia

Today I’m introducing you to former CIA officer A.J. Twombly for insight on the Trump Administration’s campaign against the American intelligence community. The President does a lot of talking about them and they don’t get to answer back. As a former Army intelligence officer myself, I know how I feel about his rhetoric, and I thought it was important to talk to a non-military individual in intelligence to see how they view the current environment. 

Common talking points we'll answer:

Whether the intelligence community has a political agenda

Whether we should just move on from all the Russia stuff

Important links:

AJ Twombly: @ajftwombly

Jason: @jasonkander

Kemet Coleman: @kemetthephantom
