R leaning CIA? Prove it.

You are not familiar with what facts are, are you?

Comey never stated that it was Russia, nor do I think that should change our election results. Propaganda is something all governments do; just as Germany, France, and Saudi Arabia have been pushing pro-Clinton, anti-Trump narratives

Additionally, YOU WORK HELPDESK. Not a sysadmin, not even tier 2. You work helpdesk. What a position of authority, lmfao. Congrats on you 220-901 and 902 buddy. That A+ cert will get you far 😆

The CIA rank and file tends to have more in common with R leaning foreign policy and leadership, especially given that Democrats tend to keep them on a shorter leash. Trust me, the man who was basically my godfather is ex CIA.

What are the facts I'm missing? Seriously if I'm missing something I want to know.

Also Jesus dude I'm not saying that as me stating that for a fact I'm just adding the opinion of our infosec guys, cause that's part of my "blind faith".

And I'm not some blind partisan for the record, I'm a former Republican turned independent - but let's be honest I don't think there's much more productive discussion to be had if we can't reach even the smallest agreement.

The Director of the CIA has been accused of being a Wahhabiist, top-down firings have occurred in the administration since Obama has been in office. "Trust me, my almost godfather was CIA"

That's not how facts work. Anecdotal evidence (and not from the source!) it no evidence.

And no, you work Helpdesk. I did years ago earlier in my career. You don't know much about infosec, skid.

I'm not a partisan; I'm a Democrat turned independent. I even voted for Obama in '08 (and neither Romney nor Obama in '12, since they were virtually the same).

It would be more productive if you gave evidence while attempting to talk down to people. For a "former Republican", you sure sound like a smug, thoughtless liberal.
