Thousands of unvaccinated U.S. intelligence officers could soon face dismissal
KTLA ^ | Nov 5, 2021

Thousands of intelligence officers could soon face dismissal for failing to comply with the U.S. government’s vaccine mandate, leading some Republican lawmakers to raise concerns about removing employees from agencies critical to national security.

Several intelligence agencies had at least 20% of their workforce unvaccinated as of late October, said U.S. Rep. Chris Stewart, a Utah Republican who is a member of the House Intelligence Committee.

CIA Director William Burns disclosed publicly last week that 97% of the agency’s officers have been vaccinated. The National Reconnaissance Office, which operates U.S. spy satellites, has more than 90% of its workforce vaccinated.

But Stewart said some agencies in the 18-member intelligence community had as much as 40% of their workforce unvaccinated. He cited information the administration has provided to the committee but not released publicly. He declined to identify the agencies because full information on vaccination rates was classified.

Thousands of intelligence officers are refusing to be vaccinated?

What do they know that our government isn’t telling us?

They know the truth, of course. Like those at the Mayo Clinic refusing the shot.

Most of these are DoD. The CIA and NSA are totally owned by the Federal government and their extremely “diverse” officers. The DoD is still mostly retired or former military and many of them have not taken the vaccination. Some of the deployers had to as part of the deployment package, but the rest did not.

This is who the government will be losing, actual field trained collectors and analysts from Iraq and AFG.

Critical point: The “Virus related” problems our culture and financial systems are not caused by the virus. They are caused by our response to it.

My own life is utterly unchanged.

Not a bit. The DoD intelligence agencies, said exactly what was going on in many situations, but did not match with the CIAs view. We were ignored and then blamed afterwards as part of the 17.

What an easy way for the intelligence agencies to purge the few conservatives in their ranks and replace them by rabid marxist deep-staters.

Yes indeed. And why have many hospital staff also left their jobs? What do they see and know? They cannot say or they risk their licenses. There is something that is very wrong with this whole picture.

We have an executive that believes the country is fundamentally flawed and openly hates us, forcing us to get this “jab” or be banned from working. Oh, they hate us so much they are doing this for our own good.

And everyone knows you can still catch, transmit and die from the disease even after getting the vaccine (eg Colin Powell).

This is a crisis the democrats cannot allow to go to waste.

Those who resist following illegal/unconstitutional orders from dear leader are obviously deplorable bitter clingers and this is simply an opportunity for him to purge them from the ranks with no one lifting a finger to stop it.

My guess would be that is the 20% if the intelligence officers that can recognize a disinformation campaign when they see it.

Sure sign the number of unvaxxed is large or they’d be bracing about compliance.

This mandate is Unconstitutional and the Biden administration knows this.

The government doesn’t have the right to make you put something in your body without your permission...

Finally some good news.

The intel agencies need to be totally unfunded and swept of all personnel.
