The CIA invited Gavin Anderson, Satoshi's right hand man, to give a presentation to them and explain how Bitcoin works. This was after it got widespread attention due to WikiLeaks accepting Bitcoin donations. Shortly after Gavin went to the CIA is when Satoshi disappeared.
Now why would the CIA be asking to be briefed about what Bitcoin is if they created it?
It's certainly plausible that some or all of the underlying tech came from the NSA and/or military, but that doesn't necessarily mean anything nefarious if it's actually open source.

I’m just spitballing off what I’ve seen. Was some diagram detailing blockchain creation through mil or cia! Was presented as documentation.
