Cocaine Import Agency. A cynical re-definition of the acronym for the Central Intelligence Agency commonly used by conspiracy advocates. It has its roots in Air America from the Vietnam War era that established drug sales as a way for the CIA to fun black operations "off books". It was during the Iran-Contra affair when the CIA used the funds from illegal arms sales to Iran to fund support for the far right Contra rebels fighting the Sandanista communists in Nicaragua and also the support of General Noreaga of Panama who was a major cocaine trafficker as were the Contras, that this acronym had its origins.
Noreaga was the Cocaine Import Agency's boy, then the CIA rolled that poor bastard and put him in the big house!

The nickname for Republican speaker of the house in the US Congress, Mike Johnson. He was granted this title on social media platforms and critics for blocking desperately needed military aid to Ukraine from his inception as speaker in October 2023 to April 2024, when he scheduled a vote. He is known to be beholden to fringe MAGA members of the GOP, who are sympathetic to Russia and were even accused of peddling Kremlin talking points verbatim by moderate GOP members, due to former President Donald Trump's election campaign.
This nickname originates from Moscow Mitch, when in 2018, the Department of the Treasury established sanctions against Russian oligarch, Oleg Deripaska, who is known to be an influential and powerful ally to the Kremlin, along with other Russian oligarchs. Democrats moved to enforce the sanctions against Deripaska but were defeated by the Mitch McConnell led GOP majority.
