Do you really believe that the CIA “superiors” didn’t know about the cover up stories and their necessity to chaff the signals up and dilute all of the coups, human trafficking, narcotics empire building, and more realistic ineptitude based fuck ups with wacky zany stories about staring at goats?
If so, their use of silly is working.
No, because I think every layer of the CIA thinks they know what’s best and that they shouldn’t have to answer to anyone, including their own boss.
No, because I think secrets can stay safer the fewer people who know about them. The boss may have a general idea of what’s going on, but the less they know, the less chance there could be a leak from a Man In The Middle attack. The bosses probably have a Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell policy. They probably knew the cat story and remote viewing story were nonsense, but knew it was dangerous to know what’s actually going on and left it be.
