Why the fuck is the director of the CIA traveling to Moscow on a C-17? The C-17 is a military logistics jet, not a passenger aircraft. Government VIPs, like the director of the CIA, would usually travel on a C-32 or a C-37, the military versions of the Boeing 757 and Gulfstream V.

So, why would the director of the CIA need to fly to Moscow on a plane capable of carrying 75 tons of cargo?

It's not like he's transporting Trump's ego to Moscow.

Seriously, though: will the neutered press ask why, or nah?
