Having a TS/SCI clearance doesn't automagically give you access to classified information, and SCI information is compartmentalized. Having access to things in one compartment does NOT automatically confer access to things in another compartment. The whole concept of compartmentalization is to prevent anyone from gathering so much specialized access to information that THEY become a liability to the security of the United States of America - I just want to make this very clear. Sure, it's a movie but a lot of people get bad information from movies and then go out and spew it everywhere. You have to be in a position where your job depends on access to a certain compartment, you have to be CLEARED for that compartment (I worked with a few people that had to be retrained because they couldn't get clearance to certain compartments that were necessary for their jobs - and they DON'T just clear you because your job requires it); it's called "Need to Know" but it's not as simple as the phrase "Need to Know" seems to imply to people. Before I told anyone of anything or showed anyone anything inside the SCIF I had to verify they were cleared to know.

Scriptwriters need some help. Just because the lady says "we have TS/SCI Clearance" and thinks they are entitled to the information, is not necessarily the case. I hear this all the time in movies or on the news. I was in the Military and had TS/SCI clearance. What SCI stands for is Sensitive Compartmented Information. That means you have the highest access to certain specific information within a "compartment" of details. So just because they have SCI clearance for one mission or some other general information, would not mean they are cleared to be read-in to the details on some past Russian mission he was involved with. I know this is not known by most viewers, so I just felt like putting it out there.

If Ryan does not report to the senate, who does he report to and why does that increase civilian oversight of the agency?

[@boatrat]

"Accountable to", and "Reporting to", are two different things. He Reports To his direct supervisor/chain-of-command, i.e., in his case, the CIA Director. Who in turn reports to the President. But Congress is a separate branch of Government. Each of our three branches of Government are certainly "Accountable" to each other (or at least designed to be), by their various Constitutional mechanisms. This is the "Civilian Oversight" function you're looking for: elected Representatives. But Oversight is only accountability for the results of what you're doing (after you've been doing it), not the chain-of-command orders that told the CIA officer what to do in the first place.

[@ralphholiman7401]

Unfortunately, the actual truth is, much of the IC doesn't seem accountable to anyone.

[@taoliu3949]

This scene is completely unrealistic. SSCI oversees all intelligence activity (it's in the name) and there is literally nothing they are not cleared to see. Ryan in this case would be in the wrong and would end up in some hot water.

[@strategery77]

The Intelligence Community has become the 4th Branch of Government in the US, replete with its own form of separation of powers protection from the other three. Congress essentially has no oversight over this new branch when an intelligence agency or director can avoid answering any question by citing a “risk to sources & methods.” The Patriot Act made this possible, by combining all of the intelligence agencies under the DNI, establishing Homeland Security & including the Department of Justice National Security Division. The DOJ-NSD inclusion is THE MOST troubling aspect because it gives the DOJ a leg in this new branch, in addition to their leg in the Executive branch. This gives the DOJ the unconstitutional ability to be immune from congressional oversight, regardless of the majority. In addition to deciding who is breaking the law & who gets investigated, charged, and prosecuted, the DOJ can evade answering Congress with the oft repeated “can not comment on ongoing investigations,” while simultaneously leaking selective information from those investigations to the media.

[@Marvolo14]

Unless congress is trained in counter intelligence and homeland defense they have no business being involved with or in control of out Intelligence Comminity. America really needs to stop operating as if being elected by the people qualifies a person for something. Our elected officials are not trained in much of anything. They are woefully unqualified. They don't even write the bills they propose. They hire people to do that. At most they should focus on legislation, and leave specialized fields to trained professionals. Just look at what's happening in the medical industries. Congressmen and judges without a bit of medical training making medical decisions for millions of women. Itd insane and dangerous. Congressional oversight doesn't ensure efficiency or sensible operation. It just means a bunch of untrained debutantes are in the kitchen getting in the way of the actual cooks.
