How important are the Dutch in terms of cutting edge semiconductor technology? & Related issues
Things I learned today

🇳🇱 1. ASML: The crown jewel of chipmaking
ASML (Advanced Semiconductor Materials Lithography) is based in Veldhoven, Netherlands.
It is the only company on Earth capable of making EUV lithography systems, which are used to etch transistor patterns onto silicon wafers at 3 nm and smaller scales.
Each machine costs $200–400 million, contains over 100,000 parts, and requires technology sourced from more than 800 suppliers worldwide — including optics from Germany's Zeiss and lasers from the U.S. firm Cymer.
Without ASML's EUV equipment, no company — not even in China — can produce chips as advanced as those from TSMC, Samsung, or Intel.
" The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance." — Proverbs 21:5
.
The Netherlands' mastery through ASML wasn't luck or chance — it was vision, patience, and decades of quiet technological partnership. Here's how this small European country came to dominate one of the most advanced and secretive industries on Earth.
---
🇳🇱 1. It began in the 1980s — Philips' legacy
In 1984, ASML was founded as a joint venture between Philips (the Dutch electronics giant) and a small toolmaker named ASM International.
The goal: to build precision photolithography machines, used to project light patterns onto silicon wafers — essentially, the "printing press" of computer chips.
Philips already had deep experience in optics, lighting, and electronics — skills that became the backbone of ASML's early designs.
The Netherlands' strong tradition in precision engineering and optics (dating back to Dutch lensmakers of the 1600s) also helped lay the cultural foundation.
---
⚙️ 2. Early struggles and long-term investment
ASML nearly went bankrupt several times in the 1980s and early 1990s.
Instead of chasing quick profits, Dutch investors and engineers doubled down on long-term R&D — a national strength.
The company worked closely with customers like Intel and TSMC, allowing it to co-develop each new generation of lithography systems based on what fabs actually needed.
This customer-partner model gave ASML an edge over Japanese competitors like Nikon and Canon, who were more secretive and slower to adapt.
---
🔬 3. Partnership with Zeiss and the birth of EUV
The real leap came when ASML partnered with Carl Zeiss (Germany), the world's best lens maker, to develop ultra-precise optics that could focus extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light — wavelengths just 13.5 nanometers wide.
The EUV concept was seen as impossible for decades because it required light sources a million times brighter than the sun, yet focused to atomic precision.
By the 2000s, after billions in research funding (with help from Intel, TSMC, and the EU), ASML finally succeeded where everyone else failed.
Result: ASML became the only company in the world capable of producing EUV machines.
---
🌍 4. Global cooperation, Dutch management
The Netherlands provided a neutral, stable, and innovation-friendly environment — ideal for multinational collaboration.
ASML built a supply chain spanning 60+ countries, integrating parts from the U.S., Germany, Japan, and others, while maintaining the intellectual core in Dutch hands.
Dutch corporate culture — practical, consensus-driven, globally minded — helped coordinate thousands of suppliers without political chaos.
This cooperative ecosystem became impossible for rivals to duplicate.
---
🔒 5. Strategic patience meets global timing
While others focused on faster profits, ASML spent over 20 years developing EUV with little return.
When AI and 3-nm chips suddenly became critical around 2020, ASML was already ready — the only company with machines capable of producing them.
Now, every advanced chip (Apple M3, NVIDIA Blackwell, AMD Instinct, Intel Xeon) depends on Dutch machinery.
---
🧠 6. In summary
> The Netherlands became a semiconductor superpower not by making chips —
but by perfecting the tools that make chips.
Their advantage rests on:
Centuries of optical craftsmanship
Philips' legacy of electronics and precision
Deep scientific patience
Cross-border cooperation and neutrality
Relentless reinvestment in research rather than quick profit
> "The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty." — Proverbs 21:5
At present, virtually no company fully competes with the Netherlands' ASML in the field of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography, the most advanced chipmaking technology. Here's the landscape :
🧠 1. Who's trying to compete
Nikon (Japan) – Longtime rival in older deep ultraviolet (DUV) lithography systems, but fell far behind in EUV and effectively stopped pursuing it after ASML pulled ahead in the 2010s. Nikon still sells DUV tools but not EUV.
Canon (Japan) – Recently re-entered competition through nanoimprint lithography (NIL), a different approach to patterning chips. In 2023–2024 they announced a NIL system that could potentially rival low-end EUV nodes for certain uses (confidence ~70% that it'll matter commercially).
Shanghai Micro Electronics Equipment (SMEE, China) – China's most advanced domestic attempt. Their best tool today is roughly equivalent to ASML's DUV immersion machines from around 2009–2010, about 15 years behind in real-world capability.
🧰 2. Why no one else is close
ASML's lead is due to:
Partnership with Zeiss (Germany) for ultra-precise mirrors and optics
Exclusive source of EUV light from Cymer (U.S.)
Unmatched supply chain integration — thousands of components, each produced to near-atomic tolerances
Government and industry support over decades, starting in the 1980s as a Philips–ASM International joint venture
🌍 3. New or potential challengers
Intel (U.S.) invested in ASML but also funds research in High-NA EUV systems, though they depend on ASML's tech.
Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) has funded Canon and Nikon to re-enter advanced lithography.
China continues a crash program to develop its own EUV, reportedly with hundreds of millions in state support, but success is still years away — they lack Zeiss-level optics and the EUV light source technology.
> "Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor." — Ecclesiastes 4:9
Yes — Carl Zeiss is absolutely critical to ASML's success.
Here's how Zeiss fits in:
🔍 1. Zeiss provides ASML's optical heart
Zeiss builds the ultra-precision mirrors and lenses used in ASML's lithography machines.
In EUV (extreme ultraviolet) systems, no lenses exist — light at 13.5 nm wavelength can't pass through glass — so Zeiss supplies six to eight giant mirrors, each polished to an accuracy of about 0.1 nanometers (that's one-thousandth the width of a virus).
Each mirror reflects EUV light up to 40 times before reaching the silicon wafer, and even a microscopic defect would ruin the chip pattern.
🧠 2. ASML + Zeiss = decades of partnership
ASML and Zeiss have been strategic partners since the 1980s, so much so that ASML even bought a 25% stake in Zeiss's semiconductor optics division in 2016 to lock in collaboration.
Without Zeiss, ASML cannot produce EUV systems — there's no alternate supplier capable of those mirror assemblies.
🧩 3. Why Zeiss is irreplaceable
Only Zeiss has the facilities (in Oberkochen, Germany) to measure and polish mirrors at that level of atomic precision.
The production of just one EUV mirror can take months.
Zeiss's optical alignment process happens inside vacuum chambers, simulating EUV conditions, a capability no other optics company currently has.
So, in short:
> ASML is the system integrator; Zeiss is the optical soul.
Without Zeiss, ASML's EUV machines would be impossible.
> "For nothing is hidden that will not be made manifest, nor is anything secret that will not be known and come to light." — Luke 8:17
That's a sharp and realistic question — and the short answer is: China has tried to gain insight into ASML and its partners like Zeiss, but true infiltration or technology theft at Zeiss's EUV level would be extremely difficult. I'm 95% sure of this assessment.
Here's why:
---
🛡️ 1. Zeiss's environment is ultra-secure
Zeiss Semiconductor Manufacturing Technology (SMT) facilities in Oberkochen, Germany are treated almost like defense sites — controlled access, biometric security, compartmentalized work zones, and continuous audits.
Only a handful of engineers have full knowledge of how the EUV mirror assemblies are produced.
Manufacturing steps are split across different buildings so no single person can copy an entire process.
---
🌐 2. Western counter-intelligence involvement
Because EUV technology is classified as strategic, Zeiss's supply chain is monitored by Germany's BfV (domestic intelligence) and often coordinated with the Netherlands and U.S. under export-control programs.
Employees are vetted, and there's close cooperation with NATO-aligned cybersecurity agencies to prevent data exfiltration.
---
🧬 3. Why stealing the designs wouldn't be enough
Even if someone did gain some data:
The mirror fabrication requires atomic-layer polishing, exotic coatings, and metrology instruments that don't exist anywhere else outside Zeiss.
Replicating that environment would take billions of dollars and decades.
It's not like downloading blueprints — the precision and alignment are achieved by machine-to-machine calibration using Zeiss-only tooling.
---
🕵️ 4. Documented espionage attempts
Dutch intelligence (AIVD) confirmed in 2021 and again in 2024 that Chinese actors targeted ASML and its suppliers for industrial espionage.
So far, no evidence indicates successful penetration of Zeiss's EUV optics program — only lower-level theft related to older DUV technologies.
---
So while China has motivation and resources to attempt infiltration, Zeiss's combination of security, compartmentalization, and unique expertise makes successful theft of its crown-jewel technology nearly impossible in practice.
Analysts classify global "tech choke points" under strategic industrial targets.
Typically, the list includes:
1. TSMC (Taiwan) – chip fabrication
2. ASML (Netherlands) – EUV systems
3. Carl Zeiss SMT (Germany) – EUV optics
4. Tokyo Electron (Japan) – wafer equipment
5. Applied Materials (U.S.) – chip process equipment

The aviation manufacturer facing intense scrutiny and scrutiny for safety inspection lapses, as a result of recent and ongoing investigations, is Boeing.
10. Aviation Manufacturing Scandal:
A prominent aviation manufacturer is facing intense scrutiny and stock drops after an internal whistleblower revealed potential lapses in safety inspections for new aircraft models.
The Revelation: The whistleblower's testimony suggests that, in an effort to speed up production and reduce costs, mandatory, multi-stage quality control checks—particularly those concerning critical structural components—were either skipped entirely or signed off using fraudulent data.
Significance: In the aviation industry, where there is zero tolerance for error, this revelation undermines public trust and puts the entire global fleet of that manufacturer's newer models under suspicion. This will trigger immediate and mandatory groundings and re-inspections for potentially thousands of planes worldwide, leading to massive financial losses, travel disruption, and, most importantly, a serious risk to public safety.
The Ethical Core: The core issue is the prioritization of profit and schedule over the safety of human life, a betrayal of the industry's most fundamental covenant with its customers.

"FBI Ousts Agent Palmer as Patel Fumes Over Attention to Agency Jet Use
https://news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/fbi-ousts-leader-as-patel-fumes-over-attention-to-agency-jet-use
"The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?" — Psalm 27:1
✅ Public tracking & texting
1. Aircraft tracking is public by default
Many government aircraft (including FBI, DHS, and other federal planes) broadcast their location via ADS‑B transponders, which can be picked up by aviation tracking websites like Flightradar24.
This means that anyone with access to these sites could see flight paths in near real‑time.
In this case, the FBI jet used by Director Patel could be tracked publicly, regardless of whether Palmer did anything wrong.
2. Director's own communications
Reports indicate that Kash Patel also texted or posted updates about his location during travel.
This further made the trip visible to the public, independent of any aviation oversight by Palmer.
3. Implications
From a procedural standpoint, Palmer's aviation unit had no way to stop ADS‑B data from being publicly visible — it is standard aviation protocol, except in limited "sensitive flights" cases where the government requests transponder masking.
Similarly, if the director voluntarily shared his location, that is outside the purview of aviation oversight.
Therefore, firing Palmer appears more about optics and a political reaction than any actual violation of FBI rules by him.
---
⚖️ Bottom line
Even though Palmer technically oversaw aviation operations, the flight's public trackability and the director's own communications suggest:
Palmer did not cause the public visibility of the trip.
The dismissal seems connected to public perception and Patel's frustration, not a documented procedural violation by Palmer.
---
If you want, I can break down how ADS‑B public tracking works for federal aircraft and why most FBI jets are automatically visible, which explains why Palmer realistically couldn't have hidden the flights. This really clarifies the situation
The hypocrisy claim
Putting the two together leads to the accusation of hypocrisy:
Patel criticised Wray for what looked like using taxpayer‑funded jets for personal travel.
Now Patel, in his role as Director, is engaging in sorts of travel that look similar (at least in optics) to what he criticised.
Thus critics say: "You condemned it when someone else did it; now you're doing it."
The core of the hypocrisy claim is not necessarily that rules are broken, but that his public position and private behavior are inconsistent.

how Kash Patel is associated with SHEIN / Elite Depot Ltd with origins in China
> "Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others." — Philippians 2:4
Here's how Kash Patel is associated with SHEIN (and its parent/related entities), and why this relationship has attracted attention:
---
✅ What the association is
Patel began consulting for Elite Depot Ltd. (a company tied to SHEIN's parent company) around April 2024.
As part of that consulting arrangement, he was allotted restricted stock units (RSUs) in Elite Depot/related entity, valued somewhere between US$1 million to $5 million according to his disclosure.
Despite his nomination to lead the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) under that timeline, he disclosed that he did not plan to divest his holdings in Elite Depot/SHEIN‑related stock.
---
⚠️ Why it's significant
SHEIN is a large fast‑fashion e‑commerce brand with origins in China and substantial global operations, which raises concerns about foreign influence, supply‑chain practices, and ethical implications.
Because Patel was being considered for a top U.S. law‑enforcement/intelligence role (FBI Director) at a time he maintained financial ties to a foreign‑linked company, ethics and conflict‑of‑interest questions were raised.
Some critics argue that retaining a financial stake in a foreign‑connected firm while overseeing law‑enforcement matters (including potentially matters touching on foreign trade, security, or supply chains) poses a risk of compromised impartiality or appearance of impropriety.
---
📝 Specifics & caveats
The exact nature of the consulting work Patel did for Elite Depot isn't publicly detailed in full.
The value range ($1 m‑$5 m) is from his disclosure and media interpretation; it may have nuances (e.g., vesting schedule, restrictions).
It is reported that the ethical agreement allows that he "will not participate in any FBI matters that could have a direct and predictable effect on the financial interests of Elite Depot."

Judge Boasberg could [& should] be ARRESTED for what he did with Jack Smith
" Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. (Isaiah 1:17)
---
A significant legal and political controversy has emerged involving federal judge James Boasberg, provoking strong reactions from Republican lawmakers. The controversy centers on subpoenas issued for the phone records of GOP senators. Lawmakers' outrage stems from the fact that these subpoenas were authorized without any just cause or reasonable suspicion.
There is no evidence cited to validate the subpoenas, other than the senators' political affiliation and support for former President Trump. This has led to claims that the judge's rulings represent a politically motivated overreach and a serious violation of legislative protections, inflaming concerns about impartiality and abuse of judicial power.
Legal analyst Mike Benz has highlighted three criminal statutes potentially implicated by the judge's actions. The first, deprivation of rights under color of law (18 U.S.C. § 242), argues that the gag orders and subpoenas interfered with the senators' constitutional rights.
The second, obstruction of proceedings before Congress (18 U.S.C. § 1505), addresses the suppression of information that would have enabled legislators to perform oversight duties.
The third, conspiracy against rights (18 U.S.C. § 241), contends that judicial and prosecutorial authorities coordinated actions that unlawfully targeted elected officials based solely on political affiliation. Collectively, these statutes frame the controversy as both a legal and constitutional concern.
Prominent Republican senators, including Lindsey Graham and Ted Cruz, have publicly condemned the judge's actions, describing them as an unprecedented encroachment on legislative independence and a politically motivated attack. They argue that using judicial authority to subpoena lawmakers' private records without evidence undermines both transparency and the rule of law.
In conclusion, this case underscores escalating tensions between branches of government and raises critical questions about judicial accountability, the protection of lawmakers' rights, and the potential misuse of political power under the guise of legal authority. The situation remains closely watched for its implications on constitutional checks and balances.

Was Kamala Harris being UNTRUTHFUL when she said she signed " hundreds of treaties " ?
" The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?" — Psalm 27:1
Vice President Kamala Harris recently made a statement claiming that she had personally negotiated and signed hundreds of treaties during her tenure in office. This claim has drawn scrutiny because, under the United States Constitution, the authority to make treaties rests solely with the president, who must act with the advice and consent of the Senate. The vice president, while a key adviser and representative of the executive branch, does not possess independent treaty-making power.
Historically, the vice presidency has been a role focused on legislative oversight as Senate presiding officer and executive consultation, rather than direct international negotiations. Any formal treaties negotiated or signed require presidential approval and Senate ratification, making it constitutionally implausible for the vice president to unilaterally engage in treaty-making.
Public records and official documentation from the State Department show no evidence that Harris signed treaties in the capacity she described, suggesting that her statement may reflect either an exaggeration of her involvement in diplomatic discussions or a misunderstanding of the formal procedures involved.
While the vice president may participate in international meetings, advise on foreign policy, and support diplomatic initiatives, the legal and procedural framework clearly delineates the limits of her authority.
Therefore, the assertion that she personally signed "hundreds of treaties" does not align with constitutional and historical practice. The claim, while perhaps intended to highlight her diplomatic engagement, conflicts with verifiable records of U.S. treaty-making authority and protocol.

Prayers 🙏 for Sudan, & appropriate action where possible
"The LORD is my refuge and strength; a very present help in trouble." — Psalm 46:1
:
Since April 2023, Sudan has been embroiled in a violent conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF). In late October 2025 the RSF captured El Fasher, the last major Darfur city held by the SAF, after an 18‑month siege. The city had been home to roughly 260,000 civilians, about half of them children.
Following the takeover, multiple credible sources document large‑scale atrocities: summary executions, attacks on civilians fleeing the city, detentions of more than 1,000 people, and major violations at hospitals (including the killing of hundreds at a maternity hospital). Satellite imagery also reveals clusters consistent with mass graves and large‑scale killings. Ethnic targeting appears to be a component of the violence, especially against non‑Arab populations in Darfur.
Displacement is massive: tens of thousands of civilians have fled toward nearby towns under extremely difficult conditions and humanitarian agencies warn of famine, lack of medical care, and an expanding humanitarian catastrophe. The UN and rights groups have described the situation as one of the worst humanitarian crises in the world, and note that the risk of large‑scale killings is mounting.
In short: El Fasher's fall marks a major shift in the war for Darfur, and the humanitarian, human‑rights, and ethnic implications are severe and ongoing.

World Series 2025 recap: congrats to the Dodgers ⚾🏟️🏆! & good job Blue Jays 👍
"The Lord will fight for you;
you need only to be still." —
Exodus 14:14
Hold onto your hat — the Los Angeles Dodgers have done the almost-unthinkable, clinching the 2025 World Series by a 4-3 margin over the Toronto Blue Jays in a breathtaking, emotional roller-coaster of a series.
From the opening pitch in Game 1, Toronto announced themselves. The Blue Jays erupted to an 11-4 victory, chasing LA's bullpen and setting a tone of confidence. Their offense was alive; the Dodgers looked vulnerable. According to summaries, Game 1 saw a historic pinch-hit grand slam from Toronto's bench, energizing the home crowd.
But the Dodgers weren't done. In Game 2, their ace Yoshinobu Yamamoto turned in a complete-game gem (4 hits allowed, 8 K's) to even the series and regain some momentum.
Game 3? An 18-inning marathon where the Dodgers edged Toronto 6-5 on a heroic walk-off home run by Freddie Freeman. Then the Blue Jays answered back — they took Games 4 and 5 (6-2 and 6-1 respectively) to grab a 3-2 series lead, exploiting LA's occasional lapses and firing up their offense and bullpen.
Facing elimination in Game 6, the Dodgers rallied. Yamamoto again came through, six strong innings, and Freddie Freeman and company helped push it to a decisive Game 7.
Game 7 — oh, what a game. Toronto jumped ahead early with a three-run blast from Bo Bichette off the Dodgers' starter Shohei Ohtani in the 3rd inning. The Blue Jays added another, pushing up to 4-2 by the sixth. But the Dodgers chipped away — in the 8th, Max Muncy belted a solo home run to make it 4-3.
Then in the 9th, with their backs against the wall, the Dodgers tied it via an unexpected solo homer from utilityman Miguel Rojas. In 11 innings, with two outs, two strikes, the Dodgers' Will Smith launched a go-ahead homer to left, putting LA ahead 5-4.
Then Yamamoto, despite throwing extraordinary effort on zero rest, backed it up: he closed the bottom of the 11th with a game-ending double play, clinching the title and earning World Series MVP.
The Dodgers become the first team in 25 years to repeat as champions, and the first NL team since 1976 to do so. Meanwhile, the Blue Jays came within inches of their first title in 32 years, only to see it slip away.
What a battle. Momentum shifted, heroes emerged, dreams were chased. The faith, resilience and clutch moments of the Dodgers shine: not just talent, but endurance.

If u follow my blogs u know I've been reporting on Nigeria for a long time "Trump Announces CPC Designation for Nigeria - "
I've been reporting and praying for and asking for prayers for Nigeria for many years now and finally it seems like the message is breaking through to the mainstream media, not just because of me or my news and prayer websites but others as well who persistently broadcast the need for prayers and action for Nigeria.
"The United States cannot stand idly by while believers are slaughtered," Moore stated. "We must acknowledge the religious nature of this scourge of anti-Christian violence from radical Islamic terrorists. It's time for the United States to defend our brothers and sisters in Christ, and designating Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern will provide the diplomatic tools necessary to do just that. I urge Secretary Rubio to designate Nigeria as a CPC without delay."
Trump acknowledged the atrocities that Christians in Nigeria face daily, saying that "Radical Islamists are responsible for this mass slaughter. I am hereby making Nigeria a "COUNTRY OF PARTICULAR CONCERN."
A Country of Particular Concern (CPC) designation could significantly improve the lives of many Christians in Nigeria by raising awareness of the ongoing persecution and exerting pressure on the Nigerian government to take action. President Joe Biden lifted Nigeria's CPC designation in 2021 for unknown reasons. ''

🏟️🧢⚾Freeman's homer in 18- inning thriller gives Dodgers win vs Blue Jays 6-5 in World Series classic !
" Rejoice always, pray without ceasing." — 1 Thessalonians 5:16–17
Here's a detailed synopsis of last night's epic: In Game 3 of the 2025 World Series, the Los Angeles Dodgers edged out the Toronto Blue Jays 6–5 in an 18-inning marathon at Dodger Stadium, tying the longest game (by innings) in World Series history.
The Blue Jays struck first in the 4th with a three-run homer by Alejandro Kirk, taking a 3-2 lead, and followed that with another run when two singles and a sacrifice fly made it 4-2.
The Dodgers battled back: Shohei Ohtani crushed his first home run to pull them within, and then a two-out RBI single by Freddie Freeman tied the game before Ohtani's second homer in the 7th made it 5-5. Ohtani ended the night by reaching base nine times – a postseason record – thanks to two home runs, two doubles and five walks (four intentional).
From the 7th through the 17th inning neither team managed another run — pitching changes and defensive gems dominated. Then, in the bottom of the 18th, Freeman ended it: facing left-hander Brendon Little, he roped a full-count sinker 406 feet to straight-away center field for a walk-off home run that sent Dodger Stadium into euphoria and gave LA the series lead, 2–1.
Rookie reliever Will Klein earned the win with four shutout innings of relief, having previously never thrown more than 36 pitches in the majors. Bullpens were used like little else: together the teams used 19 pitchers, a postseason record.
Manager Dave Roberts called the game "one of the greatest World Series games of all time."
The Dodgers now lead the series 2–1, and have shifted momentum their way ...

What are we allowed to know about the CIA ?
📖 "For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad." — Romans 13:3
📍Who controls the CIA (formally)?
Level of Oversight How it works Who is involved
President Appoints the CIA Director and sets overall national intelligence priorities. President & National Security Council (NSC)
Director of National Intelligence (DNI) The CIA operates under the authority of the DNI, who oversees all U.S. intelligence agencies. DNI is the immediate boss above the CIA Director
Congress (Legislative Oversight) Two key committees review operations, approve budgets, and question officials. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) & House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI)
Intelligence Oversight Board (IOB) Reviews compliance with laws and investigates wrongdoing inside intelligence agencies. Part of the President's Intelligence Advisory Board
Inspector General (CIA IG) Internal watchdog who investigates misconduct or unauthorized activities within the agency. Reports to both the CIA Director and Congress
---
📅 Do they have to report anything annually?
✅ Yes. The CIA's activities fall under the National Intelligence Program (NIP) budget, which Congress must approve each year — much of it is classified, but lawmakers on the oversight committees get detailed briefings.
✅ The CIA Inspector General issues reports on misconduct, which may be shared with Congress.
✅ The DNI releases an annual threat assessment for public and congressional review, with CIA input.
---
🤔 So why do people say it seems "rogue"?
Because:
Most operations are classified, giving a sense of secrecy with little visible accountability.
There are historical cases (MK-Ultra, Iran-Contra, torture programs) where the agency exceeded its legal authority.
Oversight committees sometimes rely on the CIA to voluntarily disclose information, which critics say is a conflict of interest.
Public trust is affected by political debates about intelligence accuracy (e.g., Iraq WMDs).
---
🧭 In plain terms:
The CIA is not legally allowed to just do whatever it wants — it is accountable to the President, the DNI, internal watchdogs, and Congress. However, because so much is classified, much of that oversight happens behind closed doors, which leads to public suspicion and fears of unchecked power.
---
---
📊 What we do know
For Fiscal Year 2025, the request for the National Intelligence Program (NIP) — which funds non-military intelligence across the U.S. government — is $73.4 billion.
Also for FY2025, the request for the Military Intelligence Program (MIP) is $28.2 billion.
Combining those gives a total intelligence budget request of around $101.6 billion for FY2025.
For earlier years, the CIA's publicly identified budget was much smaller in the open record — for example, old estimates suggest the CIA's budget was around $3.1-3.2 billion in past decades.
---
⚠️ What we don't know (or that's not public)
The specific budget figure for the CIA alone in recent years is not publicly broken out in full detail — much of it is classified.
Many intelligence budget items are hidden under broader line‐items in defense or other national security accounts.
---
✅ Summary answer
So: yes, taxpayer money does fund the intelligence community (including the CIA). For FY 2025, we're talking roughly $100 billion+ in combined intelligence spending (NIP + MIP). Of that, the CIA's individual share is not publicly disclosed in detail, but historically has been in the low billions (for older data).
