Two thoughts re: Echirp. 1) If it's really an internal network, why wouldn't the hate speakers get canned, like in a police department? And 2) If it's not really or not quite internal, how do we know the hate speakers are not the same cyber operatives from adversary countries that have been poisoning discourse of all kinds in this country?

I don't think you can fire someone from the army unless he does something against the rules, and if his commanders agree with him, there you are.

I have to disagree. First, the intelligence community are not all military. Second, a bunch of people are being dismissed from the military right now for militia-type associations. Third, you can definitely be fired from the FBI, CIA, NSA, etc. Trump fired about a dozen people from the FBI alone just for doing their job: Counter Intelligence.
