Hah, good luck with that. One of the reasons the CIA is so effective is that it essentially self-funds the activities it doesn&#x27;t want the public prying into. The agency makes its own investments and uses the profits as needed.<p>We usually think of this as a drugs-for-arms Iran-Contra-type of affair, but for most spy agencies, real estate is the way to go: it&#x27;s easy to obfuscate ownership, the value tends to hold or rise, and nobody&#x27;s gonna steal your condominium when you&#x27;re not looking.<p>Sarasota FL has an interestingly high concentration of expensive property and people with clandestine connections. (It also has one of the highest rates of climate change denial, a thought for another time) &quot;He works in real estate&quot; is a common implication.<p>So to answer your question, how much propaganda does the CIA fund:<p>You will never, ever know.
