The Central Intelligence Agency tweeted for the first time Friday and, no surprise, it was Doublespeak mixed with comedy.

"We can neither confirm nor deny that this is our first tweet," the agency said on its new verified handle @CIA.

It's not often you'll see the spy agency having a sense of humor.

"By expanding to these platforms, CIA will be able to more directly engage with the public and provide information on CIA's mission, history, and other developments," said CIA Director John Brennan in a statement. "We have important insights to share, and we want to make sure that unclassified information about the Agency is more accessible to the American public that we serve, consistent with our national security mission."

The agency opened the account Friday, along with a Facebook profile, too.

The Twitter handle already has some 215,000 followers. The intelligence agency has scored more than 4,600 Facebook likes, too.
