Only now are we seeing the extent of the disaster during Obama’s presidency. And we don’t even know the half of it. This sort of catastrophe is exactly the thing the establishment likes to keep hidden. No wonder they’re now in an existential panic. They should be.

Please click through and read the full report. This raises so many questions: what other catastrophes did Obama oversee that we don’t know about? With everything we now know about the deeps state, and even their willingness to interfere with a presidential election, this is part and parcel to the corruption now becoming apparent.

In 2013, hundreds of CIA officers — many working nonstop for weeks — scrambled to contain a disaster of global proportions: a compromise of the agency’s internet-based covert communications system used to interact with its informants in dark corners around the world. Teams of CIA experts worked feverishly to take down and reconfigure the websites secretly used for these communications; others managed operations to quickly spirit assets to safety and oversaw other forms of triage.

“When this was going on, it was all that mattered,” said one former intelligence community official. The situation was “catastrophic,” said another former senior intelligence official.

From around 2009 to 2013, the U.S. intelligence community experienced crippling intelligence failures related to the secret internet-based communications system, a key means for remote messaging between CIA officers and their sources on the ground worldwide. The previously unreported global problem originated in Iran and spiderwebbed to other countries, and was left unrepaired — despite warnings about what was happening — until more than two dozen sources died in China in 2011 and 2012 as a result, according to 11 former intelligence and national security officials…

More than just a question of a single failure, the fiasco illustrates a breakdown that was never properly addressed. The government’s inability to address the communication system’s insecurities until after sources were rolled up in China was disastrous. “We’re still dealing with the fallout,” said one former national security official. “Dozens of people around the world were killed because of this.”

    And the Directors of the CIA during that time period? All Obama appointees:

    Panetta, February 13, 2009 – June 30, 2011
    Petraeus, September 6, 2011 – November 9, 2012
    Brennan, March 8, 2013 – January 20, 2017

    They all have blood on their hands according to this report…
