A former CIA analyst and Biden administration official makes a notable shift in tone from sharply criticizing to outright praising President Donald Trump.
Ned Price served in several roles within the Biden administration. He was deputy to the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations and a senior adviser and spokesperson in the State Department. He famously wrote an oped for The Washington Post publicly announcing that he had quit the CIA after ten years just one month into Trump’s first term. He claimed that he could not “in good faith serve this administration as an intelligence professional,” expressing concerns over Trump’s “disregard” for intelligence and politicization of national security.
