*snicker* more language. Of course the CIA isn't "part of a secret group running the world". The CIA is an inanimate object - literally an agency of the USG. The "secret group running the world" is comprised of living entities. The CIA is a tool, being used as a weapon. Ms. Slotikin's statement is akin to a drug dealer saying "this scale for weighing drugs isn't part of the cartel".
