Young alleged that CNN smeared him by implying he illegally profited when helping people flee Afghanistan on the "black market" during the Biden administration's military withdrawal from the country in 2021. Young believes CNN "destroyed his reputation and business" by branding him an illegal profiteer" who exploited "desperate Afghans" during a November 11, 2021, segment that first aired on CNN’s "The Lead with Jake Tapper."

I'm sure we're all shocked to learn that Jake Tapper is involved

"The Lead with CIA Plant."

So.. this is what it looks like when two CIA directorates fight.
