This silver coin commemorating an anticipated (but never realized) Bay of Pigs victory features an outline of Cuba with a rebel invader advancing past a fallen member of Castro's military in the foreground.#HISTINT #Museum

The Central Intelligence Agency is promoting a silver coin that commemorates “an anticipated (but never realized) Bay of Pigs victory,” which raises a number of questions: 1) when did the CIA get into the commemorative coin racket? and 2) Who the hell thought it was a good idea to commemorate failed missions?
The answer to the first question, fortunately, is nobody. The coin promoted by the CIA’s official Twitter feed is not the sort of coin one can buy as a keepsake, but rather an archived and historic artifact for viewing. According to the promotional tweet, the coin features “an outline of Cuba with a rebel invader advancing past a fallen member of Castro’s military in the foreground.”

So what did this token cost the taxpayers? The actual invasion?....I'd rather not know.
They must have given the ones for JFK assassination out in a secret ceremony.
Celebrating a failure is...frightening! What could it mean in the mind of any American? Cancel culture?

Indeed. I would prefer to think that we are simply being led by clueless idiots as opposed to people who have sinister agendas.
Clearly indicates the CIA is an organization that is crying out to be eliminated before they do something to destroy the world. Never trust the CIA for anything.
It makes perfect sense. Now failure is rewarded just as much as success. Lol
The downfall of the West, brought to you by the left & Democrats.
Part of obamma's 8 year legacy and it's impact; a participation coin.
