Truman didn'ttrust the CIA - should any of us? the article here  http://www.maebrussell.com/Prouty/Harry%20Truman%27s%20CIA%20article.html  was published 22 Dec 1963 - exactly one month after JFK's assassination. CIA Director Dulles tried to bury it but Truman gave subsequent interviews in which he reaffirmed his position.  The article here  https://mises.org/wire/truman-was-right-about-cia refers to an interview in which Truman expressed overt regret for "consolidating" intelligence agencies and creating a shadow control center, unwatched and unaccountable. Regrettably it has become worse in succeeding administrations. Perhaps it is time to revisit Truman's thoughts.
