No, they actually serve the country and the government. This conspiracy theory has no basis. Ames was a double agent, not a great example.

Where's the evidence the CIA serves the country and government? There's not a lot of evidence that it is effective at protecting the American people from anything.

There is a lot of evidence that the CIA is doing whatever it can to ensure that the %1 of American society get their way with the world, however. That's not the same as 'serving country and government', by any stretch of the imagination.

I don’t think there is any evidence that they are doing whatever they can to serve the 1%.

There is in fact a lot of evidence that they serve the country.

Which part of the parent are you saying "has no basis"?
