“President Reagan’s Executive Order in 1981 also “permits” the CIA to “enter into arrangements with state and local police,” which certainly facilitates violating state and local laws. CIA officers with such “arrangements” and “police cover in the form of badges and other identification” can obviously exercise “police” and “law enforcement” powers, both of which are prohibited by the National Security Act of 1947.
CIA officers wearing police uniforms, carrying police badges, and driving police cars can obviously intimidate or harass anyone that the CIA targets inside the United States.” “DESTROYING AMERICA: The CIA’s Quest to Control the Government” by Anthony Frank.
