Radicals and subversives within the intelligence community

I had the great privilege and honor of working at NSA in 1974, working in Ops1 in NSA's R&D group.

As I said, it was an honor and privilege to work with such a great bunch of talented, dedicated, hard-working people. 

We didn't talk politics (even though this was the time of Watergate), but they were clearly culturally conservative at least.

As I recall, homosexuals were not eligible for employment in the IC at the time,

as an aftermath of the 1960 defection of Martin and Mitchell to the Soviet Union.

Things have radically changed since that time,

according to a developing story.

Certain shocking allegations were reported on Tuesday, Feb. 25, 2025 by Chris Rufo and Hannah Grossman:

Fox News and DNI Tulsi Gabbard are taking these allegations seriously.

"NSA investigates 'secret sex chats' under guise of DEI on internal agency message board"

Comment: Well, this will certainly get the attention of the IC.

Ah, this looks like the real deal:

"DNI Tulsi Gabbard moves to terminate, revoke security clearances of NSA employees tied to explicit chatrooms"

Hear Gabbard state this herself, to Jesse Watters:

Some Rufo X posts here:

I must say, I am surprised so many IC people were involved.

Over 100! Wow!

Another surprising thing:

That this matter couldn't be handled within the IC itself, either within the management structures of the agencies themselves or with their IGs (I believe each agency has its own IG).

Instead, whoever raised this issue had to go outside of the IC, to independent journalists.

They did not go to the Washington Post, 

but to a well-known conservative independent journalist

to break this bombshell story.

According to Chris Rufo's whistleblower, the subversion of NSA extended far beyond a mere chatroom, to include a considerable part of its management structure.

"Whistleblower: 

There’s a Trans Cult Inside the NSA

An insider tells the story of the intel agency’s ideological capture"

https://www.city-journal.org/article/nsa-whistleblower-trans-gender-ideology-dei

"according to our whistleblower, these sex chats were just the tip of the iceberg. 

This longtime NSA insider tells me that the ideological capture of the NSA began a decade ago. 

Trans activists have 

<b>entrenched themselves in positions of power, 

pressured employees to undergo reeducation trainings</b>, and 

compromised national security in the name of ideology."

My comment:

I think the issue goes far beyond transgenderism or homosexuality.

The bigger issue is cultural Marxism:

cultural Marxists in positions of power in NSA.

That would be a harder thing to root out.

Merely firing those who participated in sick chat groups would not be enough.

In any case, one thing is for sure:

that Rufo article will get the attention of the people at NSA :-)
