Where the CIA came from – – –

“Now, as nearly as I can make out, those fellows in the CIA don’t just report on wars and the like, they go out and make their own, and there’s nobody to keep track of what they’re up to.

They don’t have to account to anybody.” –U.S. Preside-nt Harry S. Truman, who created the CIA
