I always laugh when people talk about the CIA as if it is a single person, and they try to establish a sense of character by mentioning things it did in the 50s, as if any of the people involved back the. were still involved today.

Yeah but the people from the 50s trained everyone who came after them. I'm actually reading a book about the Dulles brothers (who basically set CIA philosophy, ethos and hiring practices) and there's no way that the CIA isn't still using a lot of the same practices and setting the same goals.
John Cia can't be seen because he's the best spy in the world.
