yeah those guys are pretty much screwed....
Welcome to the new USSA, comrade. These are not spies or spooks of any type; they are J2 analysts. Most are contractors and civilians, many of whom have been here for the entire long war. Being in a military command, they are not generally subject to the political pressure so common at State and CIA.
Any military leader worth his salt would champion these guys. Their job is to provide the military commander with unbiased actionable intelligence. The fact that these patriots are being run out shows how far the cancer has spread.
