I don't know why Obama allowed this, could he have had the CIA shut this stuff down he was the Chief Executive?

I wonder what this administration will do with this knowledge. It will be interesting to see trump respond too, rather than manufacture news.

Frankly, I am not sure if anyone in the White House has been able to truly control the intelligence agencies since the first Bush. And I say that only because he was a former CIA director, so he had a better chance of knowing where the control levers were hidden.
