If we let politics dictate what intelligence is acceptable, we are effectively flying blind.
If analysts believe their careers will be destroyed for offering inconvenient assessments, then we will only get the intelligence the White House wants.
These are critical posts in one of our most important intelligence organizations, vacated not because of misconduct or failure, but because of the whims of a political provocateur whose public record is filled with hate and conspiracies.
We should be outraged by the firing of April Doss, a deeply principled public servant, apparently for the role that she played in the Senate Intelligence Committee’s bipartisan investigation into Russian election interference.
