Edward “Ned” Price, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) analyst who said he resigned last week because of President Donald Trump’s “disturbing” actions and that his “decision had nothing to do with politics,” donated thousands of dollars to Hillary Clinton’s failed 2016 presidential campaign.
“To be clear, my decision had nothing to do with politics, and I would have been proud to again work under a Republican administration open to intelligence analysis,” Price wrote in an op-ed he penned for the Washington Post Monday. He added, “As intelligence professionals, we’re taught to tune out politics” and noted that “Despite working proudly for Republican and Democratic presidents, I reluctantly concluded that I cannot in good faith serve this administration as an intelligence professional.”
Price suggested his decision emanated from President Trump’s “disturbing” actions.
However, public records indicate Price has been listed as a registered Democrat in D.C. since 2008. Further, Federal Election Commission (FEC) records show that Price donated thousands of dollars to Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.
These records indicate that on August 21, 2016, he made two donations to Clinton’s campaign. Price donated $2,300 to the DNC’s Hillary Victory Fund and another $2,700 to Hillary For America.

Probably was involved in the leak. I find it disturbing Hillary supporters contact the Washington compost when ever they are forced to resign. The one thing I noticed EVERYONE around the clintons go down eventually expect them.
Good for America. Can you hear the sucking sound? Another demorat down the drain.
Bye bye libtard dont let the door hit you on your arse.
We've been trying to tell you all along that Rick Hoppes is a worthless POS and a racist look what he did to LC.
“As intelligence professionals, we’re taught to tune out politics”. What? Well if this is so then why did he donate twice to Clinton and secondly, why would President Trump make any difference as to how well he can do his job?
"Price suggested his decision emanated from President Trump’s “disturbing” actions."
And those "disturbing actions" are? If you mean disturbing as in he wakes up every morning and he's still President, that doesn't count.
Its all about POLITICS in DC
1110 wouldn't you say it's all about politics everywhere? Look at the nonsense with the Salisbury Fire Department? That's completely political at the expense of every taxpayer in the area. This country is too political for it's own good.
Use your noodles, folks. If it wasn't political why did the agent make any kind of statement at all? Thousands of people issue their 2-week notices every year but they don't seek out press and tell them why they're quitting or that they're even quitting at all. The fact this is a story at all, proves the CIA agent was quitting to make some political statement. Who cares? Saves Pompeo from writing one more pink slip.
