Author Cliff Sims’ new book, “The Darkness Has Not Overcome: Lessons on Faith and Politics from Inside the Halls of Power,” describes his experience working as deputy director of national intelligence under Donald Trump.
The book details how Sims was surprised to see the halls of the CIA lined with posters promoting transgender ideology and identity politics.
While diversity is important for CIA operations, Sims argues the focus has a political angle that denies basic biology.
Maybe the CIA should be more focused on protecting the country instead of pushing wokeness? @Cliff_Sims's book is going to be a must-read.

He warns of growing pressure to conform to views that gender is a personal choice rather than biological fact.
“I walked through an obscure entrance and scanned my badge while standing inside a plastic tube that felt like something out of an eighties sci-fi flick,” Sims writes.
“Now inside the bowels of the CIA’s Original Headquarters Building, I was confronted with a maze of hallways lined with locked doors and plaques with vague descriptions of what might lie behind them. I finally found a bank of elevators and rode up to the main floor where the wide hallways are lined with a mixture of historical paintings and the type of promotional posters found in many corporate settings,” he writes.
The “Diversity and Inclusion” office had additional posters “touting its various programs and initiatives and proclaiming the importance of each officer’s ‘identity’”, Sims added. “But as I turned the corner to walk into the CIA’s cafeteria for the first time, it became clear that the agency’s diversity focus had a political angle as well. ‘TRANS LIVES ARE HUMAN LIVES,’ the poster read.”
“Even in here, I thought to myself, considering how someone had taken time out of their day protecting the security of America from dangerous foreign actors in order to promote the latest iteration of identity politics,” Sims writes.
“In spite of the Left’s insistence that Americans need to ‘trust the science’ on any number of issues, ranging from vaccines to climate change, nothing draws their ire more quickly than when someone asserts the basic tenets of human biology, like the fact that having two X chromosomes makes one a female, while having one X and one Y chromosome makes one a male,” he writes.
He also warns of “consequences for anyone who dissents from the idea that gender is a matter of personal choice rather than biological fact — no matter how respectfully one disagrees, and regardless of whether it is out of religious conviction.”
“There will be pressure to conform, to list your pronouns (in the case of the U.S. State Department, they just put their employees’ pronouns in all email headers, whether the employees liked it or not), to share bathrooms and locker rooms with individuals of a different sex, to destroy women’s sports,” he writes. “Those who disagree are called ‘bigots’ and are not tolerated; the old adage that ‘the antidote for bad speech is more good speech’ only really works when you have the truth on your side.”
“As Thomas Jefferson once wrote, ‘I have sworn upon the altar of God eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man,'” Sims writes.
“So if you want to be at the forefront of today’s counter-revolution, be an unabashed rebel against the Left’s tyranny of the mind and assault on human biology: get married, start a family, and refuse to live in fear of the mob,” he adds.
