Veteran CIA Analyst Quits Agency Over Trump’s Intel Moves, Criticism

A CIA analyst and spokesman for the National Security Council said he resigned from the intelligence agency last week because he cannot in "good faith" work under the Trump administration.

Price said he was reluctant to leave and said he didn't think anything would ever tear him away from his chosen career path. But he was pushed over the edge after Trump issued a directive reorganizing the National Security Council, which Price said he served on as a staff member from 2014 until earlier this year.
