If you really want to know how evil and down right fucked up the CIA was, I highly recommend The Devil's Chessboard, a biography of Allen Dulles https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/24723229

After finishing it, my sense was that the best thing for America and the world would have been to put an end to the CIA.

Yeah the were an agency with basicly no oversite and unlimited budget for much of their existence. Now they supposedly have to answer to Congress at least. Personally I think we ought to start over with clean slate agency with better oversight and legistive limits on their action beyond which they require Congress aproval on a case by case basis, and none of the current decision makers be allowed in. Do the same with the NSA. Also enable the FBI to have constant oversight on them and report if they are hiding anything from Congress from or exceeding their remit
