Social Media Posts Reveal Anti-Trump Bias Of CIA Officer Who Helped Create 2016 Russiagate Report

A Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) counterintelligence officer who claimed she helped lead the 2016 U.S. Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) regarding allegations of Russian election interference has a history of social media comments blasting President Donald Trump as a “dictator.”

The comments from recently-retired CIA officer, Susan Miller, were originally reported by Just The News Tuesday and verified by the Daily Caller. Miller claimed she assisted in spearheading the 2016 ICA investigative team. The CIA under Director John Ratcliffe released a tradecraft review of the ICA in 2025.

Responding to a May New York Times (NYT) article, Miller commented that the reported dismantling of an investigative squad in the FBI was “awful” and “Further proof that Trump is a dictator,” according to her LinkedIn post.

Miller also responded on LinkedIn to a March Washington Post article as “proof” of Trump’s “lack of empathy ….. and his high regard for a dictator,” adding that Trump has “dictator envy.”

Additionally, she agreed with a comment that appeared to compare Trump to Hitler, saying, “the Hitler analogy is not lost on a bunch of us” on LinkedIn.  (RELATED: Disgraced Russiagate FBI Agent Purges X Posts As Trump Admin Bears Down On Obama Intel Officials)

Miller also said that “MaGa types are nazis” in a response to an article about the firing of the CIA’s top doctor Terry Adirim. The article referenced a lawsuit that alleged a “political extremist…called for the termination of [Adirim’s] employment and even her death.”

“Good grief. As if we needed proof that MaGa types are nazis ….. calling for her death??! So wrong. I hope she is okay,” Miller wrote.

She also agreed with a post calling Trump and Elon Musk “unAmerican and unpatriotic” for their “cruelty and sadistic pleasure,” apparently in regard to the administration firing federal workers.

Even in a comment where she agreed with an action of Trump’s, Miller clarified she was not a “Trump fan” and has previously referred to Trump as “our Dear Leader,” claiming that he wants to “rule … the world.”

In a recent interview with Times Radio, Miller claimed Trump harassed her team for investigating allegations of Russia influencing the election in his favor. “Trump wants to be very much like Putin, sort of a president for life,” she told the outlet.

In a statement to Just The News, Miller claimed she initially supported the president.

“I was originally pro Trump and a solid Republican since I could start voting….i even voted for him in his first election. Your comments are mean spirited and uninformed.. Our constitution limits the president to two terms, Trump is already talking about a third. I refused to put the dossier in our report as it could not be corroborated. Sorry to ruin your view of me as a left wing Republican hater. I was overseas for a tour from 19-22. I k ow [sic] nothing about the laptop letter, but will look it up.”

In a July podcast with “SpyTalk,” Miller said her team came into the investigation with a “completely open mind” as “that’s what you do in counterintelligence, you just tell the truth of what you find.”

Miller asserted she purposefully sought out personnel who would challenge her perspective. (RELATED: Deep State Buried Evidence Russia Did Not Want Trump To Beat Hillary In 2016)

She claimed her team found evidence that Russia preferred a Trump presidency in 2016, but they did not have evidence Trump knowingly cooperated with the Kremlin. Miller told “SpyTalk” her team added the unverified Steele Dossier to the final report because the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) would not approve the final report without the dossier’s inclusion.

Miller was upset and said she did not have time to verify the dossier’s claims before the report was published. She said the dossier could be true because she has not verified or discounted the sources in the dossier.

“Maybe it was real,” she said.

When asked by Times Radio if she has seen any evidence that Trump is a Kremlin asset, Miller said, “I have seen some things… I’m still working out whether or not it is true,” adding that there is some information that “makes it look like he could be.”
