Transcripts For WKRC 60 Minutes 20160307

From up above that ok, an inspectors coming, they would use code words, and then you would basically clean up your area to make it look right . Stewart uh huh, yeah. Cooper Upper Big Branch was a nonunion mine. Inspectors were the only people miners could turn to for help. Shouldnt be seen talking to inspectors. Was there fear about speaking up . Pauley if you wanted a job you kept your mouth shut. Me, like a lot of other miners, mining is about the only industry its the biggest industry in the state of west virginia. You have children, you want them to have. You want to provide for them. I was a single mom, you know . Cooper you needed that job . Pauley i did the best i could. crying we did the best we could for our families. The guys did as well. Ruby some of the stories that they have to tell are horrifying. Enough fresh air, being forced to work in water up to their necks, miles underground. Being forced to work in areas of the where the roof and the walls of the mine were falling in around them. Cooper prosecutors say blankenship was aware of all these safety problems because he was a micromanager who had oversight over every aspect of massey mines, personally approving every hire, hourly raise, and capital expenditure. Ruby he wanted everybody in that company to know he was in charge. Goodwin do it dons way. I expect you to do exactly what i tell you to do, when i tell you to do it. Cooper that was his message to his managers . Goodwin absolutely, time and again. Ruby and thats on tape. Don blankenship this game is about money. Cooper that message was repeatedly emphasized by Don Blankenship in phone conversations with mine managers he secretly recorded on these machines he installed in his office. Blankenship i want you to take a deep breath and i want you to listen carefully. You ready . Blanchard yes, sir. President and or someday being a v. P. At massey or president of massey requires that you be focused on dollars. Cooper he sent terse handwritten notes and memos to managers criticizing them for high costs and low coal production. You have a kid to feed he wrote, do your job. Pitiful. I could kruschev you and in my opinion, children could run these mines better than you all do. The bosses were under pressure . Stewart they were under tremendous pressure. Cooper to keep mining, keep getting coal . Stewart keep mining, right. And they carried out his orders to the t. They treated the people under them as he treated them. I mean, he talked to them like they were dogs, they in turn talked to the superintendents or the section foremen, whatever, like they were dogs and kept that pressure applied to force these people to do his will. Cooper blankenships attorneys called no witnesses at trial and pointed to safety place at Upper Big Branch. Ruby miner after miner after miner who worked at Upper Big Branch took the stand and said that the socalled Safety Initiatives were a joke. That the Safety Program stops at the entrance to the mine. And once youre underground, your job is to run coal. Cooper after two weeks of deliberations, a federal jury came to a landmark decision, finding Don Blankenship guilty of conspiring to willfully violate mine safety laws. Bill taylor there was never enough evidence to justify convicting mr. Blankenship. Cooper but they didnt find him guilty of conspiring to defraud the mine safety and Health Administration or of lying to investors and regulators about safety violations, felony counts which could have sent blankenship to prison for 30 years. Under the law, jurors arent allowed to know whether the counts theyre considering are misdemeanors or felonies. And jurors told us, they were unaware the count they convicted him of was only a misdemeanor, which carries a maximum sentence pam i actually thought they were all felony charges. Cooper when you realized when you heard ok, maybe hell serve a year in prison, what was your gut . Pam i was surprised. Cooper you were surprised, pam . In what way . Surprised it was so low . Pam yes. Kevin none of us actually knew. In terms of what the time was for the charges. I was i was pretty pissed. Cooper family members of the dead miners, who attended the trial every day, were also disappointed. Do you think was justice done in this verdict . Sherry no, no. There was no justice. Cooper Judy Peterson lost her brother, miner dean jones. Judy peterson as a result of the explosion, 29 people are gone. And thats a misdemeanor. Thats a perversion of justice. Ruby do we think that a one year sentence for what Don Blankenship has been convicted of is enough . No. We dont. The law gives us to work with. Cooper Don Blankenship and his attorneys issued a statement to 60 minutes denying he was involved in any conspiracy. They claim the explosion was caused and fueled by a sudden and unexpected surge of natural gas, though three state and federal investigations found the deaths of the 29 miners were preventable, and the result of a failure of basic mine safety standards. Don blankenship has said this was just an act of god. That these kinds of things happen in coal mining. Stewart well, you know, Don Blankenship, id like to take those words and stuff them right back down his throat because that was not an act of god. That was manmade 100 . These men you know, they werent just 29 people that got killed. They were a lot of good men. Cooper and they deserved better than what they got . Stewart they deserved much better than they got. Be sentenced in april. Prosecutors say theyll ask for the maximum one Year Prison Sentence and a fine in the tens of millions of dollars.

Bill whitaker texas executes more prisoners than any other state. At a rate of more than one a month, texas kills almost as many inmates as all the other states combined. All the condemned men in texas, about 250 of them, are held in one place death row in them will be told the exact day the exact hourof their demise. And that has an impact on their and where they find themselves. Once inmates get to death row, they are rarely seen again. But the prison let us inside to speak with several condemned killers, just weeks before their executions. What theyre thinking in their final days may surprise you. Lopez, who told us he welcomes his execution. Daniel lopez i just turned in my 14day notice for my, my death papers. Whitaker you know that in 14 days you are going to die. Lopez yes. Whitaker what was it like to sign those papers . Lopez i felt really relieved to finally get this over with. Whitaker daniel lopez, unlike almost all the other inmates here on death row, did not fight his sentence. Instead he asked to be executed know what im saying . Therestherethere it doesnt matter to me. You know, dignity does not matter to me. Its just, you know, im im worried about myself my family and the victims family. And i want everybody to move on, thats it. Whitaker is embracing the Death Penalty for you, is that the easy way out . Lopez that, i see it as a yes and no. You know, yes to finally get this over with. No, because i dont want to die. Nobody wants to die. Whitaker lopez was a crack dealer when he killed Police Lieutenant Stuart Alexander during a high speed chase seven years ago. It began as a traffic stop, when another officer pulled him over for driving through a stop sign. After a scuffle, lopez drove off. Police put spike strips down on the road to puncture his tires. When lopez veered to the right to get around the spikes he hit lieutenant alexander. Lopez said he didnt see the officer in time to avoid him. Whitaker did you know that you had hit him . Lopez yes, i did. Whitaker you didnt stop . Whitaker why not . Lopez why would i . Whitaker you hit somebody. Lopez okay, and im running from the police, right . Im trying to get away, right . Whitaker but youre compounding it. Youre making a bad situation worse. Lopez i was trying to escape for this little incident. And now that it got bigger, i was even more inclined to escape. Whitaker after police finally caught him, he was charged with intentionally driving into lieutenant alexander, a highly respected 20year police veteran. Whitaker you say this was an accident . Lopez yes. Whitaker jury didnt think so. Took them less than an hour to convict you. Lopez does that make them right . Because the jury didnt think so, does that make that right . Whitaker you think that was an accident. Lopez no, no. I know its an accident, theres no thinking. I didnt mean to kill him. He didnt mean to kill himself. And so this was beyond our powers, right. And thats why i believe theres a greater power out there. Whitaker do you blame god for the accident . Lopez no no no no no. Whitaker so whos responsible . Lopez i find myself responsible for fleeing in the for it. But it was never intentional. And i wish i could have done things different. And i guess the only way for me to do that now is, you know to finally pass over to the next world and you know, be forgiven by jesus and god. Whitaker you have said that no amount of pain will be punishment enough for killing that fine officer. Lopez yes. Not only did i end his life, i affected his whole familys life. And and and they become they become the victims too, right . And so its just its just theres just no amount of pain that i could suffer to make up for that. And i think the best way for it to end is for them to go ahead and execute me and the family gets to have their closure, and my family gets to, you know, finally get that relief this is finally over with. And we could all move on in life. Perry williams lock them up for the rest of their life. Whitaker but another livingston death row inmate, perry williams, said he wants to keep on living. Williams killed a medical student, shot him in the head, after taking his wallet which williams was just weeks away from his execution date when he got a temporary stay. He told us the countdown had been terrifying. Williams its one thing to know exactly the hour and the time that youre gonna die. It does a lot to you. Shakes. Its like waking up in cold sweats, having dreams about being executed. Whitaker you actually had shakes and cold sweats. Williams yes sir. Whitaker why do you think you were reacting that way . Williams fear, fear of the unknown, fear of the death. Whitaker should texas have the Death Penalty . Williams i dont think they should. Because i dont think nobody should have the power to take another persons life. Whitaker but yet you did. Williams yes, i understand that. And im sorry for the pain i caused. Whitaker who do you blame for your being on death row . Williams cant blame nobody else. I blame myself. Whitaker many death row inmates blame themselves, but not elvis wesbrook. So who do you blame for your being here on death row . Whitaker he said his exwife invited him to a small party. But at the party, he felt threatened. And his exwife was having sex with another man. He grabbed his hunting rifle and killed all five people there. Wesbrook im a victim in this as well as everybody else. Whitaker it sounds like you dont quite get the gravity of your crime, when you call yourself a victim as well. Youre still here. They are not. Wesbrook well, im not going to be here much longer now, am i . Come march 9th, i wont be here. Whitaker is there any chance that date will be postponed . Wesbrook no. Nothing else is going to be filed in my case. Whitaker do you want that time to pass slowly or quickly . Wesbrook ill tell you what. If you got a pill, ill take it right here in front of you, and well get it over with right now. Whitaker you would take a lethal pill . Wesbrook yes i would. Whitaker you dont think texas should have the Death Penalty . 6 wesbrook no. Execute me, they have to meet the man upstairs too. Whitaker you have a 28year old daughter . Wesbrook yes. Whitaker will she be at your execution . Wesbrook no. Whitaker do you want her there . Would you . Wesbrook no, not really. Dont you think thats pretty horrifying to sit there and look at . To watch somebody die . Whitaker former warden, tom oreilly, who we interviewed in front of the states old electric chair, told us he presided over about 140 executions. What sort of impact do you think thats had on you . Tom oreilly none. I dont feel bad about it or anything. If you commit those kinds of crimes, i can execute you and i dont have a problem at all. Whitaker he told us, by the end, the inmates are resigned to their fate and almost all of them agree to walk into the Death Chamber and lie down on their deathbed. Do they ever resist being strapped down . Oreilly a couple did, but its a futile gesture. Whitaker its going to happen. Happen. Whitaker i read one description that its like a horizontal crucifixion, the way hes laid out on the on the gurney. Oreilly thats a good way to describe it. Its he lays on the gurney on his back with his arms out in either way. We put an i. V. In the left arm and the right arm. Whitaker sounds almost businesslike. Oreilly it is. It is. After hes tied down and everybody else is cleared the execution chamber, then ill open the curtains. To where the witnesses can see him. Michael graczyk we watch through a glass. Whitaker Associated Press reporter Michael Graczyk has probably witnessed more executions than anyone in the country, more than 350. Graczyk you hear the description of it as being routine. I hope it never becomes routine when the state decides to take someones life. I think its significant. Whitaker unlike other states, texas says all executions have gone smoothly and it has no shortage of lethal also, in texas condemned inmates can no longer choose their last meal. Why is that . Graczyk people on the other side would say, well, you know, my loved one didnt get an opportunity to pick their last meal before they were killed. So why should he have that sort of opportunity . Whitaker inmates make a brief final statement. Then, on the wardens signal, the deadly drugs begin flowing. Graczyk theres a reaction of breath, take a few deep breaths or a cough and they start snoring. The snores get progressively less and then theres no movement at all. Whitaker but it generally looks like theyre just falling asleep . Graczyk yes. Whitaker most inmates, he said, die within 10 to 20 minutes. When we spoke to daniel lopez, it was just 14 days before his death. He told us something you dont often hear on death row about the Death Penalty. Lopez im kind of for it and 6 whitaker i would think someone on death row would be opposed to the Death Penalty. Lopez you know, certain people will still go out there, rape people and kill people. And they enjoy doing that. And so, im for it for some people. But its just the people that refuse to change. Whitaker are you a better person now for having been on death row . Lopez of course, of course. Ive changed. I matured back here. Im not no bible thumper or anything like that. But i have learned to accept jesus in my life. Whitaker so when our viewers see this, you will be dead. What would you want them to remember of you . Lopez i just trying to bring light to the situation back here. Were people. Were people. And we are people. We do have hearts. We do love. We do change. We do care. And they need to know that, you know . Thats what i want them to understand that, you know, youre not executing the same person that you convicted ten, 20 years ago. You know, youre executing a changed man, most of us. Oreilly change in prison is inevitable. But that does not forgive the there in the first place. Whitaker six Oclock Church bells mark the hour as daniel lopez relatives walk to the death house to watch him die. Behind these walls, strapped to a gurney, daniel lopez made his final statement. He told his relatives and the family of the victim that he was sorry. Then he said, i am ready. About a minute later, the lethal drugs began flow into his veins. After about 30 seconds, he lost consciousness. At the same time, in dueling demonstrations, offduty police revved their motorcycles to show support for the fallen officer. Death penalty opponents responded with a wailing siren. These were the last sounds lopez heard. Lieutenant alexanders widow, vicky, watched lopez execution. Vicky alexander our eyes met and i felt Something Different i think he was genuinely trying to connect with me and let me know its ok. This has nothing to do with revenge. This has to do with the law. And when you break the law, theres punishment for what you do. He broke the ultimate law and he had to pay the ultimate price, as my husband did. Whitaker after lopez paid the ultimate price, his children came to his funeral. He had talked to us about them, two weeks before he died. Lopez the time to go is now instead of to get my kids more attached to me. I want the best for them. Whitaker and your death is whats best for them . Lopez no, my deaths not best for them, its for them moving on is whats best for them. This is my fate. And i accept it. I want to start over and this is my way of starting over. Whitaker what do you think youll be thinking . Lopez if im going to go to hell or heaven. If im going to go to hell or heaven. They are. Do i look smarter . Yeah, a little. Youre making money now, are you investing . Well, ive been doing some research. Let me introduce you to our broker. How much does he charge . I dont know. Okay. Uh, do you get your fees back if youre not happy . dad laughs wow, youre laughing. Thats not the way the world works. Well, the worlds changing.

One of the industrys top scientists, googles chris urmson, told us googles Autonomous Vehicles have come a long way in just seven years. Chris urmson we are getting to a place where we are comparable to human driving today. Whitaker very comparable. In february, a google self driving car miscalculated and hit a municipal bus. No one was hurt in the accident, but the car has been im bill whitaker. Well be back next week with the new rotisseriestyle chicken sandwich from subway. wind whistling, thunder rumbling frantic shouting frantic shouting continues oh, dang it. Eat this. I m not hungry. Fascinating. Eat this. And drink this. You two are terrifying when you re in agreement. Get used to it. Elizabeth you don t have to know all that stuff by heart, you know. I want to be prepared. Classified briefs . The cia doesn t even read those. If you look too smart on the first day of school, laughs hey, dad. Hey. You look terrible. Thanks, honey. Crazy for you to be starting a new job. I mean, you just got out of the hospital. It s not a new job; it s more like an aspect of what i m doing at the war college, only less teaching. So what is it, exactly . Consulting. Everybody knows what that s code for, dad. It s intelligence work. Jace, i m employed by the defense department. You re not blowing the lid off of anything with that observation. It just seems so soon. I m fine, noodle, really. Look, eating eggs, drinking juice. Reading some counterterrorism breakfast of champions. How are you guys doing . Elizabeth you know you guys can talk to us about anything. You went through a lot. That goes for adult children, too. Stevie i know. I m fine. Prelaw is a very overwhelming distraction. Elizabeth what about that guy you were seeing, the one with the cute butt . Mom well, uh, you said it. Garrett, was it . Jareth. David bowie s character in the labyrinth . You re dating the goblin king . God, you guys, he s never heard that one before. So how is he . We ve been busy. I. sighs this conversation is far more stressful than the dirty bomb, okay . That s gallows humor; it s a coping method. mock gasp we want to meet him. Bye. I won t say the david bowie thing. chuckles phone vibrates sighs white house or state . White house. But it s just a text from blake, so likely three rungs down from imminent doom. chuckles softly sighs elizabeth make sure your father finishes his breakfast. Reeves just after 0400 hours, a ship carrying libyan refugees to italy sent out a distress call during a heavy storm. At great risk, an italian navy warship answered, managed to save all 243 souls aboard, including a man who claims to have seen jibral disah in libya since the attack. Jackson we only have 20 minutes to decide whether to question him. Or, in keeping with the italians will return the refugees to libya. Which is. Now overrun by hizb alshahid, so we d probably lose whatever potential intel this man has forever. Becker or he may not have even seen disah. Just looking to get off a sinking boat. But what do we know, ephraim . Moussa almukhtar is a libyan mechanic from the hs stronghold of ajdabiya who claims that he was conscripted to fix their vehicles. He says hs threatened his family if he didn t pledge loyalty. So they left asap for italy. General reeves, how soon can we pick him up . Elizabeth sir, i would advise against bringing him onto our ship. If news that the u. S. Is taking custody of this refugee gets out, it could telegraph our lead to the enemy. Becker t matter where we debrief this man. The fact is, we re grasping at straws here. Jackson i m no military man, but i and the fact is, hizb alshahid set off a radiological weapon in the united states. Lethal Nuclear Material for three more bombs, which jibral disah won t hesitate to use against us. And as to hishis location, we know precisely and again, i don t know the military parlance here jack diddly squat. So even if this mechanic is a straw, i propose we grasp it with both damn hands before a bomb goes off in times square. Is it still our sacred duty to protect the american way of life, or am i missing something here . Excuse me, sir. That answers that. Keep the operation light. Interrogators are on the way. This could be the break we ve been looking for. Yes, sir. Well, that was thorough. Are they gonna make you sign me in every day . Security s extra spooked. And only top levels are aware of hizb alshahid issue station. Tell me there for the soap it s a cleanup mission. So code names not your gift . I was in a hurry. And we need to catch you up. Welcome to murphy station. As everybody knows, this is the front line for our single most Important National security priority to disrupt and dismantle hizb alshahid. Meet your fellow team members. Mimi jacobs, exfbi counterterrorism turned cia analyst, with expertise in interrogations. Masterminds of the u. S. S. Cole and riyadh compound attacks. It was all her. It s possible i had some help. It s good to meet you. Henry mccord. This is jose campos, exspecial forces, senior intel cia operative with tours in pakistan, afghanistan and iraq. If you re glad the taliban government fell, thank him. All in a day s work, huh . And you know jane fellows, army captain, long stint at socom, currently head of humint at dia. She s a lauded tactician who s run enough covert ops to keep conspiracy theorists awake at night. And apparently modest, too. I didn t know about chuckles welcome back. Can t keep a good man down. Well, when i heard i didn t have to take orders from you anymore, they couldn t keep me away. Henry here is a decorated marine pilot whose recent dia work in russia is the reason we aren t all bundled up for nuclear winter. He s also a highly regarded theologian with expertise in islam. We re fighting a radical ideology as much as any man. Look, we can talk religion till the sacred cows come home, but at the end of the day, we re a hunterkiller team. We do our job right, and a whole bunch of men are gonna die. I hope you re on board with that, professor. All in a day s work, right . Let s get started. S first goal is the killing or capture of jibral disah before he strikes again. Now, as we know, after escaping our drone attacks on his safe house. Leads are scarce; they re growing scarcer since several prominent warlords in libya declared their loyalty to him. S territory and fighters. Have all taken hs s lead and are engaged in ruthless campaigns on dissenters. Henry classic totalitarian tactic. Subdue the populace quickly and brutally, and no one dares speak up. Jackson well, you better find someone who will, and fast. The entire defense and ic is working this. Potus is even quarterbacking a prospective lead as we speak. Everything deemed at all credible will be funneled to this room. You re the tip of the spear. The work that happens in this room could stop the next attack. Or not. phone chimes t lose your phone or let it die. Ll cross those off the list, then. Jareth. Hi. About to text you back, oh. The brotherly hug. Zone without my knowledge . What are you talking about . Let s see. Unanswered calls and texts, except for the odd cryptic emoji. Sorry. I ve been so crazy. Saying things like i have been so crazy. I ll call you later . Saying things like i ll call you later. I really will. I thought we liked each other. Even talked about me meeting your family, if i recall. We do like each other. Honestly, i just. I have to go. I ll, uh. Let you get on with it, then. Bloody hell. No, i won t, will i . Um, look, this isn t my first rodeo. Cowgirl. Uh. I know what the brushoff feels like. I just thought that you d be someone to do it to my face. Please just do that. I can t. Why not . I still really want to see you. I m just really late for class. I ll call you. quietly hey. I m sorry to interrupt. I just wanted to apologize for jose. Henry no need. I ve met a hundred guys like him in the marines. He s an ops guy. He spent a little too much time outside the wire. And he s naturally suspicious of analysts like me, who sit indoors with highlighters, looking for odd discrepancies and patterns. Or professors who spend their day doing close readings of obscure texts. chuckles so you re an interrogator, too, yeah . Yeah, it s not as edgy as it sounds. You just get them in a room and establish a rapport and talk and talk and talk until some little detail reveals what s really going on. Sounds like raising a teenager. I got my skills . Look alive, people. We have visitors. Hello, everyone. Sorry to barge in. This isn t what i had in mind for our first meeting, but right now we re on a tight deadline. Everybody know secretary of state mccord . You can all say your hellos later. Ci interrogators are about to interview a man who claims to have seen jibral disah since the attack. This is a live, secure feed from the Italian Naval ship that plucked him and 42 other libyan civilians from a sinking refugee boat last night. You ve got two hours to figure out if this guy s for real. After that, the italians want their ship back. Stop for clarifications, feed the interrogators questions. That s his file. Clock s ticking. Henry other than those two occasions, were there any other times he personally saw jibral disah . Moussa, did you see jibral disah any other times . translating in arabic yes. Once they blindfolded me and took me to the desert to work on a truck. That s when i saw the emir and his wife. Wait a minute. He went out to the desert and saw jibral disah and one of his wives . Or he s spinning tales to get a visa. Did they blindfold him or put a hood on him . Did they blindfold you or put a hood on you . translates in arabic speaks arabic translator it was a hood. What was wrong with the truck . What was wrong with the truck . translates speaking arabic translator i worked on the engine. They overheated it trying to get out of a ditch. Did they ask him to do anything else to the truck . Was that the only service you performed . translates speaking arabic translator i got the clay out of the tires. They were caked in this red clay. Look, the other two times he saw jibral disah, it was at a distance. So question is how did he know it was jibral disah . How did you know it was disah . translates speaking arabic translator his picture was on the television every day. It was four days after the bombing in america. I m sure it was him. How did he know the woman with jibral disah was his wife . How did you know he was with his wife . translates speaking arabic translator she was wearing a ring. And he called her wife. And i noticed that her hands were red from the red clay, i think. She was wearing a niqab, of course, so i didn t see her face. Fellows cia s had eyes on both of jibral disah s wives in saudi arabia since the attack. They haven t left the country. They know we re watching. They don t want them to lead us to him. The question is who is this woman . You mean the one in the headtotoe garbage bag with a hidden face we can t i. D. . Guess what, she s nobody. Without corroborating evidence, all we have is moussa s word on any of this. So. Do we think we have anything here . You know mine. So you recommend cutting him loose. Murphy station deems his claims, including that disah was traveling with a wife, not credible. I m sorry, sir. I hoped this would pan out. So i guess i bawled you out for nothing, gordon. Bess, thank the italians. They can take him from here. You mean ship him and the rest of the refugees back to libya . They are libyan citizens on an italian ship. Sir, are we really going to send them back to the terrorist haven they risked their lives to escape . This is the u. S. , not the u. N. Well, then let s find a unhcr camp that ll take them. Much as i would love to help, these refugees do not fall under our jurisdiction. Understood. I jane, when does the italian ship dock in tripoli . Uh. 2200. Why . Have you read the cia interview with this guy ramzi shamekh . Just the highlights, yeah. He s an old cia source who they interviewed postattack cause he s got a cousin in hs. Wasn t much else there though, right . He says disah used to make frequent visits to the Al Wahat District before and after the attacks. Well, that s near our mechanic s village. So. So look at the map. It s famous for its red clay flats. There s your corroboration. Two sources that put disah in the area in the days after the bombing. And one of them s about to step off a boat and straight into the enemy s hands. We have to tell russell. We don t have time. Now, just back me up here. I m going straight to elizabeth. We millions have switched. And discovered the Sprint Network really is faster. Plus, its more reliable with better coverage than ever.

Talk to your doctor about managing your symptoms the italians aren t happy, but they didn good. Cia s reaching out to their source, this shamekh guy. We can check his intel against moussa s interview, and that ll be that. Not quite. The italians have a price. Oh, here we go. The libyan refugees. If we want moussa, they insist we take responsibility for all 243 aboard. Whoa. Take in refugees from the country thatthat harbored the mastermind of a weekold dirty bomb attack . Why . Potus already announced the u. S. Would resettle 20,000 libyans this year. Which is bad enough. Will be labeled aider and comforter in chief. Pitch me something else. Listen, even if we strike intelligence gold, what good will it do if we return these folks to tripoli ve seen . Under wraps. A political problem that ll dog us all the way through the election . No, thanks. What happened to protecting our way of life, russell . What happened to your argument about losing our strategic advantage . I mean, how do you propose to just keep the transfer of 243 people from an Italian Naval vessel to an american one out of the news . Oh, russell, don t you know me by now . Joint naval exercises . Well, you re not really selling it, but yeah. If the media asks why an american cruiser we say. Joint naval exercises. Better. Matt. Hmm . Help the pentagon craft a carefullyworded statement to that effect which actually reveals nothing. That s the only kind they write. Three cheers for the bland sovietstyle pronouncements, because i want the media to walk right past this, got it . Okay. And, nadine, we need to loop in a tight circle on the hill. No one else. And jay and blake can help you with that, okay . Jay wait, what do we tell them, with libyan refugees in the mediterranean . In order to keep information of terrorists, yes. And if the senators raise certain concerns . About finding jibral disah . Nadine i believe what blake is referring to is transferring libyans to a border camp so soon after the attack. Okay, so remind them vetting process a minimum of two years. Hell, remind them what the plaque on the statue of liberty says. With you, okay . Yes, ma all right. I want this sewn up by end of day. And if anyone comes sniffing around, asking what we re up to, we say. All joint naval exercises. There we go. Hey. The cia s informant, shamekh, says he s got significant intel on jibral disah that we re gonna want to hear. And how much will that cost us . Five million. Cash. And he won t talk without a facetoface handoff at a secured location in libya. How do we know he s not working for the bad guys . Could be a setup. The interrogation, in libya. Shamekh wants to meet tomorrow, much time to decide. His radical terrorist cousin. T the only thing they share. He does describe himself as a true believer. I have analyzed his interviews with the cia closely, metaphorically. He views the hadiths in context. Yeah, he s devout, but i don t get salifist jihadist from him. Well, i m sold. He s practically episcopalian. Let s cut the check. A true fundamentalist wouldn t even hint at such beliefs. He d be an apostate. Maybe he s playing us for the money. I mean, this whole thing could be a shakedown. Whatever it is, it stinks and the timeline s too short, and we should keep walking. I need a decision. I guess the question is is how confident are you in your assessment, henry . Look, i can t predict what this guy s gonna do, s not a radical. I agree. Yeah. Me, too. S go for it. I ll take it to potus. In the meantime, re up. Let s put those famous interrogation skills to work. Some packing to do. Re right, professor. So the kids got the pg version. sniffs . Of dad s first day. What s really up . We can actually talk now. I know that conrad approved the meet with shamekh for tomorrow. The cia s improvising a safe house in a country overrun by terrorists. Mimi it spooks me how quickly we re moving. Hey, the government could take months to send a tax refund; when it comes to spy stuff, we move fast. chuckles stevie okay. I will see you there. Okay. So, just to put your mind at ease about my social life, guess who s coming to dinner tomorrow . Jared . Jareth. Like the david bowie movie.

We like him. elevator bell dings uhoh. Anxious daisy face. So, i swatted back most reporters, but one called his senator for comment. That senator would be Carlos Morejon from arizona. It s not a good thing. He ran on a strict antiimmigration platform. His slogan was. Yes, yes, i remember. Keep arizona secure for the arizonans. That s it. Really just rolls right off your tongue. Well, he sniffed around, found out about the libyan refugees. He s holding a press conference to denounce the plan tonight. Right before the shamekh meet. He s gonna blow it up. And risk the lives of ten intelligence agents in the process. Nadine, will you get me senator cant afford to let heartburn get in the way .

Tt0w tx hi 4 that you ve cooked up to bring a boatload of potential terrorists to our shores. Senator, you know as well as i that only a fraction of the one percent of the nearly one million refugees admitted to the u. S. Since 9 11 have ever been arrested on terrorism charges. It only takes one. Look at the dirty bomb. Which was perpetrated by a nativeborn american citizen. Good folks in my state know the difference between nativeborn and real, and i m wondering if you do. Morejon that s a cuban name, right . When did your parents arrive in the u. S. . I m guessing that you know the answer to that. Of course i do; i m the secretary of state. They were marielitos, part of the boatlift of 1980. They were fleeing a repressive regime. Which is why the good folks in these parts gave them visas. That you and your president have cravenly cozied up to. Instead of smearing them as potential communist sleeper agents sent to destroy our way of life
