how naive do u have to be if u really think american citizens get to vote on how the cia operates

For a detailed explanation of how and to what extent the CIA, NSA and other national security agencies are not accountable to the American public AT ALL I recommend the book National Security and Double Government by Michael J. Glennon. It’s not partisan, the author doesn’t hold any apparent fringe beliefs, and it’s impeccably sourced.
