Ratcliffe, Trump\u2019s highest-ranking and first cabinet-level official to visit the nation since Maduro\u2019s capture, met with acting Venezuelan President Delcy Rodriguez.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRatcliffe has become Trump\u2019s quiet hammer,\u201d this source close to the White House said. \u201cHe goes in, accomplishes whatever mission the President gave him, then disappears back into the shadows. The Agency seems to have adopted the same approach, so Trump actually deserves credit for turning the CIA into an instrument of America First power.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to Breitbart, Director Ratcliffe has spent the past year reforming and reshaping his agency, undoing the damage done by previous administration. In particular, Director Ratcliffe has taken issue with the politicization of the CIA, stripping it of all DEI programs.\n<\/p>\n<p>The Director has also pushed for absolute transparency, declassifying thousands of documents. The CIA has released documents and findings on the assassinations of John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr., the Russia collusion hoax, Biden\u2019s business dealings in Ukraine, and the origins of COVID-19.\n<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the CIA under Director Ratcliffe has been laser-focused on countering and standing up to China. Breitbart notes that, over the past year, the agency \u201creleased a series of Mandarin-language videos targeted at recruiting Chinese officials to help the American cause.\u201d And, according to Breitbart, this effort has been \u201cenormously successful.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>As Director Ratcliffe and the CIA continue to advance the President\u2019s Make America Great Again agenda, let\u2019s pray for them!\n<\/p>\n<h4>Share your prayers for Director Ratcliffe and the CIA below.<\/h4>\n<p>(Excerpt from Breitbart.
