Congress believes the CIA needs to be punished for its activity but are unwilling to take the oversight role to do anything. This is a problem. If congress can't regulate it's own organizations, power can belong to the wrong hands. The CIA and Senate are at war because the Senate wishes to publicize the CIA's report on torturing. There are talks of budget cuts and reform. Some senators stole documents as evidence but the CIA wishes to take them to court and says they have the power to spy and antagonize it's overseers as they are the CIA.
If the CIA has too much power and control its master, this is bad. This is not a balanced government and if one branch is too strong they can control a lot of things. The CIA is undermining the Congress' oversight work and this is a problem. Congressmen want to punish and change this but are unsure. They are non-acting like dogs with their tails in between their legs. Some congressmen are friends with the CIA agents and others believe the CIA should have the power and right to secrecy as it is their job. This is a big paradox and needs to be solved
