hello and welcome to cross talk we're all things considered i'm peter lavelle we are told the d.o.j. cowbell riot investigation is one of the largest in american history the f.b.i. has made it clear it will not leave one stone unturned seeking to prosecute what it calls domestic terrorists all of us want answers surrounding this horrific event but is this also urging loyalists. crosstalk in the capital riot i'm joined by my guest william binney in baltimore he's a former intelligence officer with the n.s.a. in raleigh we have brain mcgovern he is a former cia. analysts and in ossining we cross to don de bar he is the senior producer at c p r news or a gentleman crosstalk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate it william let me go to you 1st i was going through the pages of the american conservative and this article by james both ard came up will f.b.i. chats send conservatives to prison i think that is probably the most direct way of starting out this program because it looks exactly like that to me considering it's been months now since the riot on capitol hill we have preciously little information and we have the head of the f.b.i. seemingly to go out of his way to please congress in their hearings about those horrific events so what about this title will the f.b.i. chats send conservatives to prison your thoughts go ahead. i think they will attempt to do anything they can to to discredit anybody involved in the trump campaign and the trump supporters and i think that's where objective they've been trying to label all the way all the trump from people all 75000100 as terrorists and that's the way that that's the way out that's why they had that section and 21 input into the way the authorization act or the military authorization act back in 2012 that was one of basically stated the same thing that a special or a 48 did when the nazis issued 933 that said they you know the they had the authority to imprison anybody with the military and do that and keep them indefinitely with no due process whatsoever that's exactly what exactly was special order 48 was and eventually they used the nazis used that to get rid of all their political enemies their leader but he also they didn't like and that's what's really looking like it's going to happen here ray why is this investigation taking so long the f.b.i. the d.o.j. of asked for more time it sounds like they're trying to can looking for more dots to connect because they don't have enough dots now to make their case so they need to keep the have a much larger dragnet as it were that's what it appears to me because they're there in their reaction their answers to questions why you need more time don't make any sense to me so i'm going to have to come up with my own suppositions go ahead bring your thoughts. f.b.i. is unrestrained. it's not soup of ice it has a record of deceiving the american people mostly for the last 4 or 5 years for the current phase and you know when you get people like. senator grassley of the judiciary committee in the senate who is supposed to be overseeing the f.b.i. and department of justice. when he comes out in a tweet node no less and says what ha it's the part bit of just us. now i don't know if you got that from bill binney but bill bernie's been saying that for 3 years or more ok the department of just us and what the aggression a me immense simply that with the f.b.i. violating the law kleinsmith lawyer. fabricating information to justify a foreign intelligence court word. and call me lying saying that the steel documents the steel dossier so to speak was verify that's what he told the judge on the same day of the national intelligence director no still she still stuff has not never been we can't corroborate it same day we have written documents for 2 so what i'm saying here is that if you need further proof that the f.b.i. is unsupervised and can do whatever it was used to is now ranking chair of the judiciary committee and the senate you should be the chairman and he looks like the partment of justice is really the target of just us and i'm reminded of that wonderful dish you were where they say you know it's a big club and just realize it you're not in it that's exactly right you know don they did this also this investigation into the riot on the capitol on january 6th this is expanded into the military i find if someone would have told me a few months ago that they would be purging the military for suspicious thoughts bad thoughts ok and obviously it only goes in one direction here i mean this this is a dragnet as it were here and it seems to be all all branches of government are pursuing it here in the end just to go back to what bill had to say because about 75000000 people voted the wrong way is that's how we should interpret it go ahead don. first of all the thing that enables this the event quote unquote the you know the insurrection whatever term the someone wants to throw against the wall to see what sticks what we're talking about is a couple of 100 people that went through the capitol building without authorization with the capitol building when a joint session apparently was guarded less effectively than say the football field at the super bowl for sure in terms of security because the fan 6070000 people could never overrun or have never overrun that yet and they're really except for the one police officer and the woman that got shot in the face or in the head or whatever they're murdered by the police that no one was killed they didn't burn the building down you know they walked off with the snow days and then made a mess out of the place for that the trillion dollar military it's rather got it was how much money we spend on intelligence agencies and the f.b.i. which i would include in that they all of them are being you know turned inside out and reexamined it reminds me of. my concerns about our air defenses that were supposed to protect us against an attack by the soviet union for 50 years there's suddenly were you know easily penetrated by a handful of knuckleheads from the middle east and a couple of jetliners and yet they wanted to again just as an idea that would give patriot act september 2001 you know they want to do away with everyone's civil rights and human rights over this and just one last thing for the people on the left and liberals who aren't there but who think that this is ok because it's being done to quote unquote trumpeters take a look at the cointelpro papers take a look at the records from the citizens committee 50 years ago last week that broke into the f.b.i.'s office should transylvania what they found was out of 50 some odd percent of the cases that they handle that all of their budget most were handled were against political targets and only 2 or 3 percent were against the right most of them are against the left and it will be that way here also if you allow it to happen to anyone you know bill explain to us you have a long career in this here i simply can't get my head around the fact that how many countless billions of dollars are spent on surveillance on teligent on gathering information how could this get how could this possibly happen on the nation's capitol i mean it doesn't make any sense i mean you know they're guarding buildings all around the world but they couldn't guard that one can you won't get an answer to that because they again they they they won't they won't give us a straight answer on what happened i think that for something of its magnitude they're remarkably quiet except for the number of investigations that they're pursuing and the number of people that are in custody and the number that could be go ahead bill well it's pretty to be pretty simple if they had some evidence that this would be prepared in advance and they knew about it in advance and yet they did nothing to beef up security or anything to be able to. deal with it as it happened so it meant to me very simply put that they wanted it to happen because that would allow them then to discredit the entire trump campaign and and strike or move to try to classify them as terrorists and that's exactly what they've been doing and yet most of them just went through the white the capitol building taking pictures like tourists yeah you know who the ones who are the ones who are doing it were very few in number and they were the ones leading the pack inciting the people to do other things and then when you get people together in mass like that sometimes that's an easy thing to get some people to do and that's fine i thought i meant it was their client. right read it weigh in on that because i think that's very important because as it was just pointed out i mean they were taking pictures to put on instagram and facebook i mean what kind of criminal element or criminal intent does that i mean bill just hit the nail on the head there i mean this so it looked like a lot of tourists and then it got out of hand a small number of people what turned it into a riot but even if the you know i mean they had a guy that looked like to baka i mean it was this is a fake us all out or something go ahead ray or you know i think we have to get out of out from the trees and look at the forest here. why was allowed to happen. who isn't who is in charge. it was the speaker of the house nancy pelosi and that fellow from kentucky the leader in the senate. they're the ones in charge of the capitol police and they didn't do anything so we have to start looking there know what is next you pelosi saying now well she's talking to hillary clinton and she's saying my god we have to have a $911.00 investigation went and suggestion clinton so that love to see what putin was telling trump. of genuine ok now you laugh i left even the new york times us left that that that i think that's the only russian thing that they didn't play but think about the implications here a lot just said this oliver stone was a friend of mine told me that during one recent session with low demeanor cuttin putin exasperated threw up his hands and he says you know the russians are being treated just like to jews were in the thirty's before world war 2 and quote was was an enemy but i mean they're being scapegoated they're being blamed for everything and what's the implication of that well if he and hillary clinton are still running the democratic party tonight when it all comes to push comes to shove this spring when there are demonstrations in the street who's going to be blamed for that well it's big going to be a hand of of loads him reproaching because all roads lead to putin all right that have a major all right ryobi job and here gentlemen we're going to go to a hard break and after that heart break we'll continue our discussion on the capitol hill right stay with r.t. . that's right the sound. out all over on what has. good that i'm a troll but rather. for. a. political battle i don't question that you can keep an eye on what i have through each other for a trifle that it doesn't make up. my michelle little side of. the hey why don't i. get this whole full place choice is a government pay i think the time in theory has said. he she ought to have a. model for that in africa will fuck around with mr hates it for jim and then i hope that our family and of course. the money. wasn't under make no certainly no borders and is blind to nationalities. you. know so much. we don't look like seem. to be. judging. commentary classes with this system to. we can do better we should. everyone is contributing way but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenges crayfish the response has been much so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we are in it together. welcome back to cross talk where all things are considered i'm peter lavelle to remind you we're discussing the capitol hill riot. ok let's go back to don here you know don one of the things i find very distressing even discussing is that if you lie to the f.b.i. and that can include casual yeses and casual knows you can face a prison term but the f.b.i. can lie to you or write in building their case and unlike what they're being portrayed in the media a lot of these terms supporters are the most vulnerable in society they make them into monsters but these are a lot of these people are or poor working people and. many of them are not very well educated because the american educational system is awful and so you have the full power of the state one of the largest investigations in the country and christopher way wants to go serve up something to congress and the media but you know if you if you have a cow if you don't answer in the way they want it like for example were you me or the capital bull in there my dear can mean something in the person that's being asked could mean something else but and they could say no that's not true you lied to the f.b.i. you were on their head list ok i mean it seems to me the f.b.i. is that they're this showing they're the veil is drop they're showing really who they are. well 1st of all i mean that's pretty much what happened to flint to general flynn yet others receive your official you're not involved or a ball. and they use this you know they weaponized their investigative tools you know to be able to do that it's not the prosecution in the strict sense of a but rather in the broad sense of it almost to the to the level or even to the level of persecution they have weapons that they can use to take out their political allies they if they can retrofit basically on to some statute to justify criminalizing behavior that is really not criminal behavior you know people are warning of this kind of thing when the rico statutes were passed him things like that but practically speaking the everyday business of the f.b.i. uses these tools constantly get people and one of the problems that you know you have to take a look at this again in historical context 1st of all the american public have been certainly brainwashed about the f.b.i. and you know it look at the the the untouchables to the f.b.i. time television these are the you know the most upright the best educated untouchable literally you know but public officials in the business the you know the cannot be corrupted and yet it's the most corrupt there is to touche and perhaps on the planet when you consider the reach that their corrupt behavior has it to where now you're looking at in essence the f.b.i. has established itself or some people with control over the f.b.i. have used the f.b.i. to establish themselves as a power unto itself even over the government i mean what i what i think we should have seen with this episode was a direct intervention by the f.b.i. in the outcome of the 2020 alexion one of maybe that led to the outcome that that we have seen. and what they're doing now which cleanup work and their event it is going forward where anyone who might 1st of all prove that there was wrongdoing with respect to the election in 2020 and secondly look to prevent that from happening in the future will be taken out as political entities by criminalizing them and you know let me get a bill here that's exactly where i wanted to go because it seems to me that they were going down the path of criminalizing dissent and criminalizing having your own opinion because and also with this you know if we look at h.r. one we look at this investigation we look at all of the shenanigans though associated with the russia gate hoax it seems to me and i'm going to make a big statement here but i think we're going in the direction of disenfranchising tens of millions of people you know what do you say bill go ahead. and i don't think it's peter but it's also who like i referred back to nazis special order 48 that's the kind of thing they want to bring online and start using it and i see this coming very very clearly from what they've been doing. you know it's not just the it's not just target people for it just to get them out of the way or silence them or anything it's also you know doing other things like using i mean i'm quite clear confident that the f.b.i. is involved just like it were in cointelpro against silencing any kind of dissent internally in this country and using any means they have available and then they lose these like directed energy weapons we hear are in my house are also you know as from a front using spectrum analyzers they get that we are detecting these kinds of things being directed at us so this is nothing new and i'm not these people have not stopped at anything they don't lie in a court of law and they they fabricated evidence against us that whistleblowers from innocent and the made up just outright lies about it's just that and got the court to buy into that because what is the court you know they don't know anything except what the. tells them they have no way of verifying or validating anything they're being told and they've known for years and decades in fact that the f.b.i. is lying to them consistently and yet they do nothing about it because they're part of it and maybe even. we've heard reports over here that judge roberts was telling the rest of the members of the supreme court not to hear the the texas and other state complaints against it disenfranchised in the post during the hearing that by having so many and the other states stuff ballots into the box and late they're even violate their constitutions internally in the states and in terms of how they handle votes so i mean the courts are involved in this i mean all parts of our government are corrupt now they're all and are there any chance to cover up for the other early all fall you know you know i guess the the the the like me i was going to say the silver lining but it's not his silver lining since the opposite is that we have big tech i want to continue with my question that i had for bill there i mean disenfranchising people because with big tech now i mean almost all of us in one way or another live through these different platforms and all that and so i mean if you're on the wrong side of the divide in the f.b.i. says so in the courts won't intervene then they just disappear you you're just go on ok i mean it and i that's we've already seen. individuals and groups of people being marginalized and disappeared already and now that that with the grand investigation the most extensive in american history it will be definitive and they'll that will be the trigger that they will poll and then then we see a good part of civil society disappear your thoughts right. well it's very clear that the f.b.i. is riding high ok so as the whole national security state including the cia n.s.a. and the others as if one of the big deal here no longer being investigated i think that john durham the famous john durham investigation is over and other words the f.b.i. will not never be held accountable i'm not sure exactly what merrick garland is going to do as attorney general but the signs tell me that he just sweep it under the rug and the f.b.i. who demonstrably lied now give his his more recent example call me when you know told the face a court foreign intelligence surveillance act court 112th of january 2017 the steel dossier was verified yet on the same day we have the e-mail he sent to the director of national intelligence james clapper in which he said we cannot we can't we're trying very hard but we cannot corroborate what steele says and has to associate well both of those things cannot be correct and we know which one is correct shows that the cia has been completely discredited so comi lie to the court that's a felony and he's done to get away with it. now that's that's the the core of the question here because if john durham is just allowed to go out to pasture. even despite his his visage from central casting you know that one on one picture is a hard guy well he's a h
