1 Story is via Jesse Waters. Tulsi Gabbard’s spokesperson, Olivia Coleman, says it did not happen.

2 A raid is usually associated with a subpoena. The story doesn’t seem to make a lot of sense.

3 ODNI says Nope

This is false - the CIA did not raid the DNI’s office. https://t.co/vZOEqzeK4M

4 Not to mention that the CIA cannot operate within the USA borders.

I'll say this is a fake story and the author really has to clue where the CIA is allowed to operate!

5 @4 Where the CIA is allowed to operate by law and where they do operate isn't necessarily the same thing.

That doesn't mean I believe this particular story.

6 Right. A subordinate organization is going to "raid" the DNI's office. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

7 Timing with China meet is not a koinkidink, paints this as a distracting move to suck up some media time trashing the fact it was a fake. Even if it has some truth aspect, the fact it's fake is what will get the air.

9 Tulsi Gabbard at center of explosive CIA claim as JFK and MKUltra files 'vanish from her office'

CIA special operations officer James Erdman III, a 20-year veteran of the agency, outlined the accusations during a Wednesday Senate hearing about the origins of Covid-19.

'When the DIG [Director’s Initiatives Group] ceased operations, the CIA also took back 40 boxes of JFK files and MKUltra files being processed for declassification by DNI Gabbard,' Erdman claimed.
