Amaryllis Fox Kennedy, a former CIA officer and senior Trump administration intelligence official, says she resigned last month because she could no longer sign off on intelligence spending she believed lacked proper oversight, including the movement of taxpayer-funded gold bullion.
Kennedy, the daughter-in-law of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., told The Wall Street Journal that her departure was driven in part by frustration with the intelligence community's handling of classified funds. "I couldn't keep signing the checks. I would have become complicit," she told the newspaper.
