"There is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success, than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things." Tulsi Gabbard and her team need to hear, see and feel our support.

Yesterday, the CIA Directorate of Analysis purposefully framed a hit against the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) by leaking a manufactured story that DNI Tulsi Gabbard had exposed an "undercover" agent when she removed the security clearances of 37 former and current intelligence embeds.

In reality, the CIA attempted to block Tulsi Gabbard from exposing how the CIA manipulated the 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment claiming Russian interference in the 2016 election. Ms. Julia Gurganus was the CIA analyst who organized the ICA.

As Tulsi Gabbard began to drill down onto the issue, and as the current CIA analysts within the former National Intelligence Council (NIC) and CIA Directorate of Analysis began to notice she was going to reveal the fraud, the CIA embeds changed the status of Julia Gurganus in June in an effort to protect her.

The CIA changed the status of Julia Gurganus in June, reclassifying her as 'covert' specifically because the ODNI's public statements of intent to reveal the fraud within the 2016 Russia election investigation.

 This, they schemed, would stop DNI Gabbard from exposing Gurganus and taking action.

The CIA scheme didn't work. 

DNI Gabbard declassified and released the CIA work product, and then later removed Gurganus security clearance.  The CIA embeds at the directorate of analysis were furious and leaked the false story to the Wall Street Journal using the familiar ploy that has worked for them in the past.

By calling Julia Gurganus an active and covert CIA operative, the scheme team within the directorate knew Gabbard would be unable to defend herself publicly. 

Discussing the identity of an active/covert CIA operative is against the law.  The CIA weaponized the law within their attack against the ODNI; leaking a false story they knew Tulsi couldn't defend against.
