Thank you to anyone with any serious knowledge regarding my question. I’m well aware that it’s a tough question given more than one answer pertains to the question, but I need to narrow it down here, and am working ahead of my books arrival in the mail, so trying hard to do my own research online to keep my studies going, so thank you to all for offering your help. Have a great day!

The C.I.A. actually does report to both the president and congress. The C.I.A. does not carry out foreign policy under the F.B.I. and in fact does not carry out foreign policy at all. That is the State Department. Only some of it’s budget and operations are secret to most U.S. citizens, but they are not without government oversight.
