WASHINGTON, D.C.: President Donald Trump's administration is planning to cut many jobs at the CIA and other U.S. spy agencies, according to the Washington Post.
Since taking office in January, Trump and billionaire Elon Musk have pushed to reduce government spending. Their efforts have weakened several federal agencies and led to more than 200,000 federal workers leaving their jobs.
The CIA plans to cut 1,200 positions, along with thousands more from other parts of the U.S. intelligence community, the newspaper reported.
