For this example I can think of a plausible scenario arising whereby the 'top secret' nature of their work makes it difficult to hold them accountable.
If the taxpayers knew (e.g.,) that the CIA was planning to dust off some foreign leader ahead of time they'd be all up in their shit. But since that never happens and we only hear about it years later, it becomes a fait accompli by then.
That is until Putinleaks puts out some stuff about the CIA watching you on your own TV.
