SecWar Pete Hegseth just BROUGHT BACK the legendary WWII Office of Strategic Services, the elite spy-and-sabotage unit that gave BIRTH TO THE CIA, 81 years after Truman shut it down
"The OSS is back."
The renamed special ops office gets at least $45 MILLION a year and 100 dedicated billets
Hegseth keeps getting targeted and he refuses to slow down!
Hegseth's memo puts its civilian chief on EQUAL FOOTING with the Army, Navy and Air Force secretaries.
He's also asking Congress to make it a permanent Under Secretary of Strategic Services.

Built by some of WWII’s most visionary minds, the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) carried American resolve into the hardest places and against the most determined enemies. It embodied the determination of Americans who believed they could achieve the impossible.
Today, after 81 years, the OSS returns.
Our operators deserve a voice equal to the burden placed upon their shoulders. @ASWAndersonSOF advocated for a Secretariat for Special Operations that operates in both name and function, setting the pace, driving coordination, and ensuring SOF has the resources needed.
This redesignation strengthens SOF representation within @DeptofWar and reaffirms America’s commitment to the forces entrusted with the Nation’s most demanding missions.

Great, another government agency. Just what we needed.

That Q drop is from 2017
Update: the CIA has not been dismantled 9 years later

Patience, patriot.

Didn't see it coming but apparently there is a trade off. CIA will be gone.
Posted on 11/13/26 at 7:26 am to Kjnstkmn
Are any intelligence agencies being dismantled or is this just going to be yet another office to work with and against other offices?

It's probably Space Force all over again, just doing something that they think will be permanent and part of their legacy.

So the party of small government creates another government agency?

There won't be a trade off. This is just more/bigger government. Just like Space Force. Just like adding the CISA division to DHS in 2018.

The Department of Redundancy Department will look into that.
Posted on 11/13/26 at 7:57 am to Kjnstkmn
What's the point of this? The dept of war certainly already had an internal intelligence agency.
Posted on 11/13/26 at 7:58 am to Kjnstkmn
Ok, then dissolve the CIA. We need to be reducing the number of intelligence agencies, not increasing them.

Are there some more Marxists in the US that need jobs?
