The CIA works under the president, but they work for the American people and that is where their loyalties are supposed to be.

They can be as loyal to the American people as they choose to be (provided they are willing to pay the consequenes)...but by law they cannot attempt to subvert Administration Policy from within and are subject to being dismissed from the CIA if they do so. If they leak information to the public in an attempt to subvert Administration Policy from without...they are not only subject to dismissal...but also criminal prosecution. In addition...even if they have been dismissed...they are still subject to criminal prosecution...if they leak information.
