"This record makes clear that plaintiffs have never seriously pursued their 'secrecy oath' claim against the CIA," Justice Department attorney Kimberly Herb wrote for the CIA. "Due to the absence of allegations concerning the CIA with regard to this sole remaining claim and plaintiffs' own admissions that they do not have specific facts to support it, the CIA has repeatedly asked plaintiffs to voluntarily withdraw the claim."

Anyone still laboring under the delusion that the US government operates on behalf of the American people, or even feels some responsibility toward us, will find liberation in researching the history of American intelligence. It is not a pretty story.
