Intelligence officials confirm that the Trump administration actively pursues a proposal to decrease employment levels significantly across multiple U.S. intelligence agencies, starting from the Central Intelligence Agency and the National Security Agency.

The planned staff reductions will affect approximately 1,200 CIA positions throughout several years, while the NSA and additional agencies expect further workforce optimization.
