Highly inappropriate. @ODNIgov Ombudsman should immediately investigate whether or not this individual’s radical and extremist views interfered in CIA’s intelligence production and/or contributed to the I&W failure pre-October 7. Hard to understand the justification for suppressing the identity of this extremist/pro-terrorist employee. Especially given that their affiliation was declared on LinkedIn and they are a senior executive.

Elated and thankful to hear that Mr. Woodke has been released after 6 years in captivity. We continue to pray for his wellbeing and safe return home.

America owes a debt of gratitude to our oldest ally France and specifically the DGSE for securing Mr. Woodke's release. As, @ASD_SOLIC this was my teams top priority. While Mr. Woodke was fighting for survival, the SO/LIC team was fighting the worst of the government bureaucracy 24/7, including those tasked with returning Americans unjustly held abroad, to make sure Jeffrey was not forgotten.

Last May, the PIDB identified a series of records related to the 9/11 attacks of significant public interest. Today, after many months of interagency review, a 2004 memo from the 9/11 Commission recapping their conversation with President Bush and VP Cheney was declassified. This memo provides unique insight into the former President and Vice President’s actions before and after the attacks carried out by Al-Qaida at the instruction of Usama Bin Ladin.

Full memo here:

The PIDB is pleased to learn of the @ODNIgov’s remarks regarding the national security harm caused by over-classification and the need to modernize the classification and declassification system. Her comments echo concerns the Board has highlighted in previous reports to the President and in public testimony before the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.
