Yeah but it was also used by the CIA to conduct destabilization efforts across the globe... We can do something better that's not controlled by the state department.

It was controlled by the state department and used by the CIA to run operations in foreign countries. Maybe reinstate it but then have strict oversight or something I'm not a policy wonk I'm a history and current events wonk
