In the wake of the scandals over the terrorist attacks in Benghazi, the Internal Revenue Service's targeting of conservative groups, and the Justice Department’s spying on journalists, the Paulding County Republican Examiner (PCRE) was contacted late last night that the latest scandal to break is the systematic political purge at the CIA under the direction of CIA Director, John Brennan.

The news was received by the PCRE by Kent Clizbe, a former CIA counter-terrorism operations officer and author of Willing Accomplices and Obliterating Exceptionalism, of the purge of non-supporters of Obama and vicious reprisals and threats against anyone who dared to speak out against the CIA or the administration and that it began in 2009 and has escalated ever since.

While Brennan has been Obama’s CIA director since March 8, 2013, Brennan has been President Obama’s confidant since 2008.

Clizbe’s troubles with Brennan first began when he wrote about what he called theObama/Holder Global War on the CIA, in August of 2009 in Newsmax, when Leon Panetta was the Director of the CIA. In the next two years, Clizbe wrote several more articles about the politicization of the CIA and the war on terror. The main target of his analysis was John Brennan, who at the time was Obama’s “Terrorism Czar.”

In 2010, Clizbe wrote "John Brennan – Connecting the Dots Spells Conflict of Interest" in which the CIA was not pleased, especially Brennan.

When Clizbe left the CIA a while back, he was hired back on in 2011 as a contracted consultant.

In April 2013, two weeks after Brennan arrived at the CIA, not only were some other agents purged or threatened with termination, Clizbe was purged from the CIA payroll.

The reason? The CIA purged Clizbe because he was at the forefront of criticizing Brennan through his writings, appearances, and his two books.

“Unfortunately, in 2011, I accepted a beltway bandit's offer to return to the Agency as a contractor. Mortgage and all, you know. They assured me that plenty of their employees had written books. And federal law made it illegal to retaliate for political speech,” Clizbe told the PCRE.

“I heard from friends that some of my articles had been posted on the media board inside headquarters. A shrewish comment on the BigPeace website was clearly from a classmate, now a high level officer in management. While not quite notorious, I definitely had ruffled feathers, and was not appreciated,” Clizbe said.

“The pure power the gang commands are unprecedented in American history. An astute student of American politics, influence, scandals, and misdeeds would be hard pressed to find a more stunning abuse of power than what has been revealed of the Obama clique’s misdeeds to date. And I use “to date” purposefully,” said Clizbe. “It is very likely that there remain many more shoes to drop as we learn the specifics of this regime’s corrupt political hounding of its “enemies.”

“One of the administration's cabal--who has been hip-deep in all of their provoked international turmoil--from the Maghreb Mutinies to Benghazi, to the intra-Islamic struggle for power in Syria--is the reptilian John Brennan. Brennan has been Obama's toady since the 2008 campaign. He lost out on the goal of his sucking-up, the political appointment to be the DCIA in 2009 when PC-Progressives objected to his role in Bush-era CIA interrogations,” Clizbe told the PCRE.
“But he was rewarded with an even better role--CT Czar--pretty much outside the purview of Congressional oversight. From his White House office, Brennan ruled as the de facto head of American Intelligence from 2009 to 2013.”

Brennan and other higher levels of government in the Obama administration threatened CIA agents’ careers and livelihood who spoke up about Benghazi and demanded that no CIA officers discuss publicly the events on the ground.

Clizbe also criticize the IRS persecution of political rivals to the Obama regime, the DOJ selective targeting of dissident media outlets, the massive secret collection of media outlets' communications, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder obfuscates about his actions, and Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton’s refusal to address her actions on Benghazi.

Clizbe said, “Brennan's eunuch-like manipulation of the Intelligence Community leadership and explains the unholy alliance of Brennan's control of the Intelligence Community and PC-Progressives' love of covert action. So, it's pretty safe to say that I wasn’t on Brennan's love-list.”

“The clandestine personnel security system is virtually impervious to oversight. Decisions are made by bureaucrats, much like the IRS, the DOJ, and other regime offices, which we see now are all too willing to please their PC-Prog masters. The big difference from the IRS is that everything the CIA does is cloaked to outside view due to national security. Their decisions are not appealable. They don’t have to explain,” said Clizbe.

“This regime, once it understood the power of the covert action and investigatory apparatus it controlled, turned on normal Americans. It applied the lessons learned in the GWOT to monitoring its domestic enemies. Total collection, all the time, of all electronic records—cell phones, emails, smart-phones and now tax returns—allows the regime the capability of compiling a complete profile of its enemies—names of contacts, physical locations, message content, interests, photos, and now tax records. What other “confidential and private” government records are added to this “big data” for the uses of the regime?”

The sum of all the data available provides them with a holistic overview of an enemy—where he is, what he’s thinking, who he’s talking to, and what his plans are,” said Clizbe. “This overview can be used, as on the battlefield, for targeting. What about drones in America, Master Holder? Have you recused yourself on that one too?”

“All signs that this administration is following the path of all power-hungry statist's--vicious reprisals and threats against any who dare to speak out against them. This is what happened in Moscow, the former Soviet Union in 1936 when political opponents or perceived enemies were purged or silenced.”

As a result of Brennan’s and Obama’s political purge, Clizbe is unemployed. He told the PCRE that if anyone could use his unique combination of skills and experience, that he is available immediately.

Clizbe posted his situation in detail here.
