Ex-CIA Analyst: US Intel Community Biased for Democrats

The U.S. intelligence community holds an institutional bias toward the Democratic Party, and this has grown under President Donald Trump, according to former CIA analyst John Gentry.

Gentry, who is now a Professor at Georgetown University's Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service, wrote in an article for the International Journal of Intelligence and Counterintelligence that former senior intelligence leaders, including CIA Director John Brenan, and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, had broken traditionally held prohibitions by publicly discussing liberal political views and criticizing Trump.

"The attacks on Trump were unprecedented for intelligence officers in their substance, tone, and volume," he wrote. "Critics went far beyond trying to correct Trump's misstatements about U.S. intelligence; they attacked him as a human being."
