Of course Obama, Pelosi, Hillary, Brennan and GWB remain on the CIA’s board and can dictate any internal policies and activities. These are lifetime appointments.

Just Trump having a little fun by reminding them who’s the boss after two-plus years of anarchy. Sword-rattling as Barr gears up. Blood is running cold, resumés are being polished, incriminating evidence destroyed, stories harmonized, favors called in, attorneys retained.

Basically it means that te DCIA is an appointed position and there is no automatic succession of authority. he POTUS has to appoint an new one, subject to senate approval. This retains control of the agency by the executive rather than entrenched fellows...
