CIA under investigation for spying on Senate

The CIA's internal watchdog is investigating allegations that the agency improperly spied on Senate staffers probing secret details of a now-defunct interrogation program.


So what's with all of the spying going on? First it's the NSA spying on world leaders and everybody else and now it's the CIA spying on the Senate.

I'd be on the lookout for a number of "accidents" in the near future. Hopefully no one finds any "evil assault nail guns" on the scene(s). I can't see going back to using a hammer

This is really starting to sound like ancient Rome all over again.

What troubles me is, I always thought the CIA spied on world leaders and the NSA spied on Americans (with the FBI as their lapdog cops) ... When were the rolls reversed ???

What makes you think it was ot the NSA?. Might be a good cover for action. Make counter accusations and deny everything. Hell if I was them I would make sure that if discovered you would think it was someone else.

Since the Senate is fine with the NSA spying on me I am having a hard time getting spun up on this......

Actually, I think the CIA/NSA should be keeping tabs on the Congress. No pink.

...the Mafia should be the ones spying on congress; it would be easier for them to spot a scam. Congress ain't stupid, they got their corruption buried so deep only the mob would recognize it.
