A Very American Coup

 We don't for one second blieve it, but we like it - The Boggart Bloggers

by Truth or Fiction, MoA (64)

Under the guise of removing Biden from the presidential race, a coup d'etat took place in the United States. On Thursday, July 18 at 01:14 New York time, US President Joe Biden died of coronavirus. Biden's body is still in the freezer at the White House. The medical personnel who were involved in the treatment and resuscitation of Biden were held for some time at the residence in Washington, but after the go-ahead from Vice President Kamala Harris, they were conditionally released under a non-disclosure agreement and are now at their place of permanent residence under a ban on leaving the District of Columbia. Biden's death turns out to be a state secret. Part of the late president’s family found themselves hostage to the situation and their fate is being decided by the current leadership of the country. Biden's wife Jill and his children are under the control of Secret Service people who are now subject to the orders and instructions of Harris. Certain compromises have been reached with the president’s children; they are ready to support the myth of Biden allegedly alive until the autumn US presidential elections, but at the same time they put forward a number of conditions that were accepted. Ashley Biden will become Secretary of Health and Human Services in the future Cabinet, and Hunter Biden will move to the US National Security Council.

The appearance of the president's double after Biden's death completed the coup d'etat and put an end to the implementation of these intentions. Kamala Harris communicates through several channels at once with the leadership of several countries privy to the situation, issuing guarantees of continuity of course and various promises. In particular, the start of deliveries of F-16s is the result of an agreement with Kamala Harris to contain America’s Russian expansion in the region. Zelensky, through the State Department, received the go-ahead from Harris for active peacekeeping activities, which he, in fact, immediately took up. The compromise and agreements rallied around Harris by the late Biden’s inner circle are shaky and fragile. Negotiations are currently ongoing on the final configuration of power in the United States on the eve of the elections. There will be decisions and big changes soon. The country is really led by Kamala Harris. US President Joe Biden is dead, his place is taken by an impostor double! We continue to inform you about everything that is happening in the US leadership, and soon there will be numerous confirmations of our information.

Trump is reportedly ending the CIA's program to arm Syrian rebels. If True It Signals Putin Won In Syria

This report should be treated as an unconfirmed rumour. It came to us yesterday as a whisper from one of our contacts in London's political village and today we have found the same story circulation in Brussels circles (where both the EU and NATO have headquarters. Keep an open mind on it for a while, but if it turns out to be true, don't be surprised.

Our Source reported a rumour is circulating that President Donald Trump plans to end the CIA program set in train by his predecessor, Barack Hussein Obama, in 2013 to fund, arm and train Syrian 'moderate' (i.e. head amputating, human organ noshing sex slave taking,) rebel groups to enlist their help in achieving his only objective in formenting the Syrian civil war, to overthrow Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and impose regime change.

The ending (if it proves to be that) of the controversial program reflects one of his biggest priorities: improving relations with Russian President Vladimir Putin. The Washington war party may be deluding themselves about American military capabilities, but Trump is enough of a realist to know there can be no winners in a nuclear war.

"This is a momentous decision," a current official speaking on the condition of anonymity about covert program, is reported to have said. "It means Putin won in Syria."

Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, one of Washington's leading warmongers, tweeted that "if true – and I hope it’s not – it would be a complete capitulation to Assad, Russia, and Iran." He continued: "If true, big loss for: 1) Syrians who have been relentlessly attacked by Assad 2) Our Arab partners 3) US standing in the Middle East."

Big win however for those in the west who oppose military interventions against leaders who will not dance to Washington's beat, and for the over 50% of Syrians who support Assad.

The Pentagon is still backing Syrian rebels fighting ISIS. But it is suggested Trump decided to end the CIA program more than a month ago after consulting with national security adviser H.R. McMaster and CIA Director Mike Pompeo. The decision was made ahead of Trump's meeting with Putin at the G-20 summit in Germany on July 7, where they spoke for more than two hours. They spoke again for nearly an hour at a private dinner that evening. Now we know what that private, unmonitored conversation was about.

Trump and Putin agreed during the meeting to work on a new ceasefire plan for Syria, which has entered its sixth year of civil war. The White House has not responded to a request for comment.

Democrats Russia-Trump Claim Collapses. CIA Director Tells Hearing Hillary, Not Trump Collaborated With Russians

Since the defeat of Washington insider and the anointed of The Military / Industrial Complex, Hillary Clinton by billionaire businessman, TV star and all round loudmouth Donald Trump, the Democrats, bad losers like all left wing parties have been levelling trumped - up accusations of collaborating with Russia at Trump. It started before votes were cast of course, when Clinton's campaign accused the Russians of hacking private servers and stealing thousands of emails damaging to Mrs. Clinton which were subsequently published by Wikileaks. Eventually Wikileaks acknowledged that the documents had come from a Democratic Party campaign worker - now known to be Seth Rich, who was murdered close to his home in Washington. The death was recorded as a mugging, but apart from the fact that Rich's wallet, and expensive watch and jewllerey he was carrying were found on his body, the killing bore the hallmarks of a professional hit, there were a number of other mysteries surrounding the crime and investigation.

After the election, the Democrats changed tack, claiming Trump has business links to the Russian government which disqualified him from serving as president. no evidence to support the accusations.Still, helped by friends in mainstream media they managed to force an investigation into the non - existent 'links.' That investigation is now presenting its findings to a congressional committee.

Under questioning before the House Intelligence Committee, former CIA Director John Brennan inadvertently admitted that Russia was in possession of information that is damaging to Hillary Clinton.

Brennan’s refusal to answer whether Russia had damning intelligence on Mrs. Clinton, with which they could blackmail her, could only be for one reason.  It’s now clear the Russians absolutely are in possession of such information.

Why else would he only agree to answer that question in closed session?  After all, neither ex-FBI Director James Comey, Director of ex-Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, or Brennan asked for a closed session to answer such a broad question about Trump when each of them were before Congress multiple times in the past.

Under direct questioning, Brennan didn’t come close to implying that the Russians possessed a shred of damaging information about Trump.

In fact the entire sequence of questions were focused solely around the Russians having negative information on Clinton.

More Facts Emerge About Murder Of DNC Whistleblower Seth Rich

Conspiracy theories seem to be filling the news; following a long established pattern most of mainstream media, those publications and broadcasters that lean towards the 'left' of the political spectrum are pushing their own pet conspiracy theories, that President Trump is a Russian agent and that Russia hacked the campaign of the Democratic Party candidate Hillary Clinton, stole emails containing damaging information and used it to damage the candidate and had victory to Trump. Meanwhile the Democrats, national security agencies, the CIA and FBI in particular, and mainstream media are conspiring in a vain effort to hide the truth of Hillary's Hacked Emails, that they were in fact leaked via Wikileaks by Seth Rich, a Democrat campaign worker who was disgusted at the way the Democrat National Committee and the Clinton campaign conspired to cheat rival candidate for the nomination, Bernie Sanders, of victory.

Now are more truth emerges about the circumstances of Democrat whistleblower Seth Rich, the Deep State propaganda machine has gone into overdrive trying to divert attention from the emerging facts. 


Seth Rich, Craig Murray and the Sinister Stewards of the National Security State

By Mike Whitney, Counterpunch

May 19, 2017
Why is it a “conspiracy theory” to think that a disgruntled Democratic National Committee staffer gave WikiLeaks the DNC emails, but not a conspiracy theory to think the emails were provided by Russia?
Why?
Which is the more likely scenario: That a frustrated employee leaked damaging emails to embarrass his bosses or a that foreign government hacked DNC computers for some still-unknown reason?
That’s a no-brainer, isn’t it?
Former-DNC employee, Seth Rich, not only had access to the emails, but also a motive. He was pissed about the way the Clinton crowd was “sandbagging” Bernie Sanders. In contrast, there’s neither evidence nor motive connecting Russia to the emails. On top of that,  WikiLeaks founder, Julien Assange (a man of impeccable integrity) has repeatedly denied that Russia gave him the emails which suggests the government investigation is completely misdirected. The logical course of action, would be to pursue the leads that are most likely to bear fruit, not those that originate from one’s own political bias. But, of course, logic has nothing to do with the current investigation, it’s all about politics and geopolitics.

We don’t know who killed Seth Rich and we’re not going to speculate on the matter here.  But we find it very strange that neither the media nor the FBI have pursued leads in the case that challenge the prevailing narrative on the Russia hacking issue. Why is that? Why is the media so eager to blame Russia when Rich looks like the much more probable suspect?
 
And why have the mainstream news organizations put so much energy into discrediting the latest Fox News report, when– for the last 10 months– they’ve showed absolutely zero interest in Rich’s death at all?
 
According to Fox News:
“The Democratic National Committee staffer who was gunned down on July 10 on a Washington, D.C., street just steps from his home had leaked thousands of internal emails to WikiLeaks, law enforcement sources told Fox News.
A federal investigator who reviewed an FBI forensic report detailing the contents of DNC staffer Seth Rich’s computer generated within 96 hours after his murder, said Rich made contact with WikiLeaks through Gavin MacFadyen, a now-deceased American investigative reporter, documentary filmmaker, and director of WikiLeaks who was living in London at the time….

Rod Wheeler, a retired Washington homicide detective and Fox News contributor investigating the case on behalf of the Rich family, made the WikiLeaks claim, which was corroborated by a federal investigator who spoke to Fox News….

“I have seen and read the emails between Seth Rich and Wikileaks,” the federal investigator told Fox News, confirming the MacFadyen connection. He said the emails are in possession of the FBI, while the stalled case is in the hands of the Washington Police Department.” (“Family of slain DNC staffer Seth Rich blasts detective over report of WikiLeaks link”, Fox News)
Okay, so where’s the computer? Who’s got Rich’s computer? Let’s do the forensic work and get on with it.
 
But the Washington Post and the other bogus news organizations aren’t interested in such matters because it doesn’t fit with their political agenda. They’d rather take pot-shots at Fox for running an article that doesn’t square with their goofy Russia hacking story.

Read full article at Counterpunch >>>

We have reported previously on the mysterious death of Seth Rich and the information revealed by Rod Wheeler, and lets be honest, what is known and verifiable of this case once again points to those dismissed as crazy conspiracy theorists having been close to if not totally on the truth, while those who insist they are they guys in 'white hats' have been lying through their teeth, concealing evidence, fabricating alternative facts and generally acting like the power addicted scumbags they are.

Clinton Campaign Leak Came From Within Democratic National Committee Says Ex CIA Agent

former CIA analyst Ray McGovern, one of the Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity who believes the DNC and Hillary Clinton campaign were not hacked by the Russians, but victims of a leak from within the DNC.

McGovern said that when President Obama wanted an investigation into the possible hacking, he was doing so at the behest of the director of the CIA, John Brennan. McGovern also said the email leak was probably done by a disgruntled DNC staffer who was upset by Sen. Bernie Sanders’ treatment by Democrats and President-Elect Trump should not focus on the intelligence briefings of the CIA since its director only wants to bring him down.

Hear McGovern talking to Fox News radio

As we reported yesterday murdered DNC staffer Seth Rich has been identified as the person behind the leaks. Rich was identified as the most likely suspect shortly after his murder, but mainstream media totally failed to report the very suspicious circumstances of his death, instead preferring to continue parroting the Clinton campaign's nonsensical "Its the Russians" narrative.

Comey Caught In Another Lie, He Buried Evidence Of Spying On Trump

Evidence given in a  congressional hearing revealed that former FBI director James Comey, recently fired by President Trump, seized and buried evidence that Trump was the target of government surveillance before he became president.



 Source: Big League Politics:

 Former FBI director Comey seized and buried volumes of information that demonstrated a wide-ranging government surveillance operation targeting Donald Trump before he became president.

Big League Politics reports that according to Larry Klayman, a lawyer representing former NSA and CIA contractor and whistleblower Dennis Montgomery,  47 hard drives and data amounting to more than 600 million pages of documentation on the surveillance operation were delivered to the FBI.

Then-FBI director James Comey’s counsel James Baker took the data into his possession, according to multiple sources. But despite possessing Montgomery’s bombshell whistleblower revelations, Comey never acted on or publicized the information.

Additionally, Comey’s former firm Lockheed Martin granted entry to Montgomery to one of its facilities to help him work on the alleged mass surveillance program, which was allegedly overseen by Obama administration officials John Brennan and James Clapper and specifically targeted Trump.

When Barack Obama appointed Comey in 2013, he testified to the comformation hearing about his nomination to become the director of the FBI. Among the issues he addressed were the use of water-boarding in interrogations, National Security Agency (NSA) surveillance programs, and the force feedings of prisoners at Guantanamo Bay detention facility. He also said that the secret surveillance court that approved wiretapping requests, known as the FISA court, was “anything but a rubber stamp.”

It is clear now that throughout his directorship Comey used the court as just that, eventually by-passing it and authorising surveillance himself.

The surprise firing of Comey was triggered by the ousted FBI director's recent comments on why he usurped the authority of the Attorney General and announced the FBI would not seek the prosecution of Democrat candidate Hillary Clinton for using an unsecure email server, according to White House and Trump administration officials.

President Trump was angered by Comey's assertion that although Federal cimes had clearly been committed, Clinton had no criminal intent when she mishandled highly classified information on her private server, according to sources in The White House.

The Comey firing took center stage at a hearing of the Senate Intelligence Committee Thursday where the acting FBI director fielded questions from Democrats who suggested the dismissal was aimed at hampering an ongoing FBI counterintelligence probe into whether Russian intelligence secretly cooperated with the Trump presidential campaign last year.

In the nine months since the FBI began investigating the Clinton campaign's allegations of  Russia-Trump collaboration to affect the outcome of the election, no evidence of criminal wrongdoing by Trump or his associates has been disclosed, either by officials or in unofficial leaks. This is in direct contrast to the many crimes of people involved in the Clinton campaign, both in their cheating Bernie Sanders out of the nomination and in offences related to funding and electoral law.

VAULT7 Leak: ‘There is Heavy Shit Coming Down says CIA contractor

A few years ago when Wikileaks released the Bradley Manning data dump we Boggart Bloggers considered the whistleblower site had been irresponsible because the information released included names of government agents and operatives, and we said so in our posts. The latest Wikileaks release, the so called Vault 7 leaks are being denounced by people involved in the Deep State as a threat to national security, but we reject this. The information in Vault 7 documents exposes how the CIA developed tool to spy on US citizens through their computers ans smartphones and also reveals collaboration between government agencies and powerful technology corporations. In fact it confirms that the success of these corporations is more due to favours granted by the US government than to the quality or usefulness of the products and services they trade in.

Over the past year every secret Wikileaks has revealed hurt both the integrity and honor of the United States. But it has also exposed the culture of corruption deeply embedded in the political system of the USA. They have also proved that many new media journalists dismissed by those frauds and poseurs employed by news organisations like The BBC, CNN, The New York Times and The Washington Post as 'conspiracy theorists' are in fact far more diligent investigators and reporters than their counterparts in mainstream media.

The question Americans have to grapple with, although the election of Donald Trump last November suggest many have answered to their own satisfaction is "Does the US government deserve the level of scepticism it faces?" After all, living inside of a vast and powerful, if increasingly authoritarian empire has its benefits. As the empire expands, so does the wealth of its citizens. Well that's the theory. In practice it has never worked out that way. Persia, Rome, Ottoman Turkey, Britain, they all failed. And now America has too, the dream has died, the gap between rich and poor has never been wider, upward social mobility is only possible to those willing to see their souls to the power brokers. Paranoia has infected the establishment. The CIA deep staters have turned their guns on the people they serve — using third world banana republic tactics to silence opposition, take down regimes not beholden to their world view, using internet technology to both spy on and monitor on American citizens, infringing civil and constitutional rights to an extent the other wannabe empire of the 21st century, the bureaucratic dictatorship that is the European Union never dared to attempt.

Fox New sources inside the CIA said the agency was running around like headless chickens, saying ‘there is heavy shit coming down.’ Is it any wonder when we consider the crimes the CIA have committed against citizens of their own nation as well as the regime change and destabilisation operations they have engineered around the world?



The reason for the rise of 'populist' politics, In Britain, France, Germany, Sweden, The Netherlands, Italy and Spain as well as the USA and the alienation among those usually supportive of the CIA lies in the disengagement of the political elites from the masses. The only return the average American has seen from the $10 trillion in Obama has added to the deficit is American casualties of war, jobs lost to cheaper labor overseas, expensive oil prices, expensive healthcare, and run away education and health costs, along with a wave of social disturbances that have people feeling fearful and insecure.

While the elite flaunt hedonistic lifestyles, eschewing basic decency for perverse lifestyles, ordinary punters are fobbed off with talk about the need for austerity, even as they watch government spending grow more profligate. After electing a true agent of change in Donald Trump, the people are laughed at and impugned by the elitist media. Their President is set upon by ‘permanent government’ officials in the intelligence agencies — whose only goal is to derail and destroy his term before it even begins.

Then we come to find out the same people who told us the Russians were our enemy, revealing corruption and depravity on a monumental scale via the Podesta emails, they were, in fact, the ones spying on us all along — both lying and mocking us like Lords in a fiefdom. They even developed a piece of software to disguise their clandestine snooping as the work of foreign powers.

Yes the US establishment does deserve the crap Wikileaks has thrown at it. In the 'fair use' clause of copyright law, which covers the use of copyright material without licence from the originator in certain circumstances, there is a phrase "in the public interest." It is surely in the public interest to know that their own government, rather than any foreign power, is their greatest enemy.

Clinton Campaign Manager Robby Mook Knew About Wiretaps On Trump

How long will it be before the ,edia start calling it Trumpgate? The campaign phone taps story is really warming up now. On the heels of Wikileaks exposure of CIA cyberspying techniques, people connected with the Clinton campaign in last year's presidential election are admitting that they had knowledge of the wiretaps Donald Trump alleges the Obama White house requested on his campaign.

Latest of these is Hillary Clinton’s former campaign manager, Robby Mook who confirmed to Fox News that he had knowledge of wiretaps being used during the campaign.

Of course he knew; Hillary tweeted about the wiretaps one week before the election.

Earlier Fox News reported:

 
Earlier Fox News reported:
“Today Hillary Clinton’s former campaign manager told Fox he had knowledge of wiretaps being used during the campaign but he suggested they were targeted at Russian officials, not directly at Trump Tower.”
It’s funny to watch Democrats stabbing each other in the back as they try to tiptoe around the wiretapping scandal, all pretending they knew about it but had nothing to do with organising it as a way of bringing down the Trump campaign.. It’s hard to believe that Mook really believed the wiretaps were meant for Russian officials when the order stipulated they were to be installed on lines to the Trump campaign offices in Trump Tower.

There is a slim possibly Mook is telling the truth since The Democrats seem convinced Trump is a Russian secret agent who has been having a gay love affair with Vladimir Putin for several years.

When we read of the insane stuff that went on in the Clinton campaign team, it should make us understand how lucky the world was that American voters rejected Hillary Clinton and her lunatic cronies. If she had been inaugurated as president in January, the world would have been at war now.

Zuckerberg's Plan For World Domination

Our readers will know that we are not great fans of the moonfaced, Islamic extremism loving Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg. In the past we have exposed how Facebook was started by CIA seed money because it offered a chance to collect vast amounts of private data on individuals, how Zuckerberg (and other tech corporation's bosses have collaborated with government to work against the interests of freedom and civilised values, and how, mysteriously, Facebook's annual profits are closely linked to the handouts of taxpayers' money the social media site gets from US Government.

Control Freak, Fantasist and nerd, Zuckerberg was always certifiably insane, but now he seems to have gone right over that edge, and decided Facebook is essential to the next stage of human evolution.:


Mark Zuckerberg’s theory of human history

Can Facebook help humanity take its “next step”?

Updated by

Mark Zuckerberg’s 6,000-word manifesto on the future of Facebook begins with a capsule narration of human achievement. “History is the story of how we've learned to come together in ever greater numbers,” Zuckerberg writes, “from tribes to cities to nations. At each step, we built social infrastructure like communities, media and governments to empower us to achieve things we couldn't on our own.”
The Facebook CEO does not explicitly add his social network to that list of social infrastructure, but the rest of the letter makes clear that he wants to see it on there, and soon. “Progress now requires humanity coming together not just as cities or nations, but also as a global community,” he argues, and “Facebook stands for bringing us closer together and building a global community.”

There has, in recent months, been growing speculation about the role Zuckerberg wants to play in the world. Quartz, for instance, has published a 4,000-word story imagining Zuckerberg’s successful campaign for the presidency, as well as a checklist of things Zuckerberg would need to do to run for president in 2020. The Atlantic has suggested that the groundwork is already being laid.
But with this manifesto, Zuckerberg is articulating an ambition that is in some ways grander than the US presidency: he wants to use Facebook as the platform on which to build a global civil society, creating a service that encourages communities and cooperation and political participation on a transnational scale. He frames national governments as merely one piece of “social infrastructure,” and suggests that the world might need something to push beyond their limits. He wants Facebook to help humanity take its “next step.”
But to do that, he’ll need to make some changes to Facebook.

Crazy stuff indeed, read the full article at Vox

MK Ultra Mind Control Program Whistleblower Cathy O’Brien: Interview

In a fascinating episode Dark Journalist Daniel Liszt talks to Whistleblower Cathy O’Brien, an alleged victim of the notorious but well documented MK Ultra experiments in mind control carried out by the CIA for the US government and author of the classic book on Covert Mind Control programs, Trance Formation of America. The book was based on Cathy’s groundbreaking testimony for the US Congressional Permanent Select Committees on Intelligence Oversight in 1995.

Cathy’s fascinating journey through the world of Deep Political Corruption and Covert CIA Programs began when her abusive father sold her into MKULTRA Mind Control Programs at an early age in Michigan through his political connections with local politicians, including future President of the United States Gerald Ford.

Through systematic torture and well documented trauma-based mind control programming, Cathy was forced to do shocking acts as a sex slave and participate in CIA Black Ops and White House/Pentagon level operations during the Reagan/Bush Administration. During this period she interfaced with high-level political figures including Hillary and Bill Clinton, former President George Bush Sr. and former Vice President Dick Cheney.

Breaking free of her mind control programming and Dissociative Identity Disorder with the help of intelligence insider Mark Phillips over the course of a decade, Cathy exposed the insidious world of criminal covert operations happening inside Black Budget operations connected with the Pentagon and intelligence agencies, including human trafficking and extensive drug running programs.

Deep State efforts to suppress her testimony culminated in the National Security Act being invoked to silence her and continue right up to the present. Nonetheless Cathy’s latest venture was to create a new workbook, PTSD: Time to Heal

Watch the video below:


As with all such revelatory writing / journalism we should approach the content with a degree of scepticism, while what went on in the MK Ultra program and other shameful episodes such as The Milgram Experiments are very believable given what we know of how governments and powerful organisations around the world have operated in the decades since World War 2, and of how quickly and easily 'scientists' will abandon all pretence of ethics and morality when thold that whatever horrors they are involved in are being committed in the cause of 'advancing science', there is never likely to be any collaborative evidence for individual accounts of what happened.

Read, listen, investigate further and remember, it is everybody's task to hold authority to account. THEY CAN'T PUT US ALL IN PRISON.

Russian Hacking Fake News: U.S. Intel Chiefs Have History of Deceiving the Public Says Journalist

from Information Clearing House

See a video of Investigative Journalist Glenn Greenwald's analysis of the track record of US National Security Services on matters of transparency and integrity when spiunning their covert agenda to the Us public and to the nations of the world in a recorded interview with Amy Goodman of Democracy Now.

Greenwald shines a light on the demonisation of Russia, the hopelessly botched attempts to stop President - elect Donald Trump from assuming the Presidency and the general lack of integrity in the US national security services. We all understand of course that by the nature of what they do, security agencies cannot publish details of their activities, but also they should not be political, they serve government and not the party in government. Also we have a right to require that security services and indeed any government agencies do not involve themselves in criminal activities such as hacking, kidnapping and engineering 'sting' operations to discredit political activists and curtail free speech.

OK, here's that video. 




 
TRANSCRIPT


AMY GOODMAN: Well, Glenn, on Friday, President-elect Trump is meeting with CIA Director John Brennan, FBI Director James Comey and the DNI’s, the director of national intelligence’s, James Clapper, as they brief him, summarize what the 17 intelligence agencies say. Tell us who these three men are.
GLENN GREENWALD: Well, interestingly, James Comey has become, after Vladimir Putin, probably the most despised villain in the Democratic narrative about what happened in the election. In fact, after the election, Hillary Clinton blamed not Putin or WikiLeaks, but Comey, for why she lost, because of the letter that he wrote shortly before the election, in which he said that he—the FBI was essentially reopening the investigation into whether she broke the law through the use of her emails. Comey was a Bush administration Justice Department official who was appointed not by George Bush, but by Barack Obama, to be the FBI director.
John Brennan was also a Bush-era CIA official, who is a supporter not of all aspects of the Bush torture program, but some aspects of it, including rendition and other interrogation techniques that are widely regarded as torture. And he was made the national security adviser in the Obama White House after Obama tried to make him CIA director in the beginning, and liberals objected and blocked his nomination, but he ultimately became CIA director. So these are Obama appointees who are running these agencies, even though they were high-level Bush officials in the middle of important, controversial war on terror policies. And they have a long history—not just their agencies, but they themselves—of approving legally dubious, if not outright illegal, programs and lying to and deceiving the public. And so, there are no angels in any of these machinations that are taking place as these various factions vie for power in this new scheme in Washington.
AMY GOODMAN: But who Donald Trump should find a lot of common ground with, who also wants to expand torture techniques, as he said, expand Guantánamo, his own appointees.
GLENN GREENWALD: Well, I mean, I think, in fairness to people like James Comey and John Brennan and other people in the CIA and in the Pentagon, a lot of those people who became either actively involved in or in a more passively complicit way part of some of the more extreme war on terror programs actually did come to regret it, either on moral and legal grounds or just pragmatic grounds, that they realized that the U.S.—that U.S. interests are undermined if they’re doing things like operating black sites and torture camps all over the world. And, in fact, Brennan and other leading members of the CIA have even said, including Michael Hayden, that some of the things Donald Trump has said he wants to do, like murder the families of terror suspects or reintroduce even more extreme forms of torture, are such forms of war criminality that the CIA and the military would refuse to follow those orders. So there is a significant part of that world that thinks that Trump has gone too far or will go too far. But there are also—and that includes, actually, the person that he wants to make his defense secretary, which is General Mattis, who is a pretty outspoken opponent, actually, of the reintroduction of torture. But there are also some really unhinged extremists in that world, like Michael Flynn, obviously John Bolton, others who may end up with influence within the Trump administration who want to do all of that and even worse. And so, there is this jockeying for power over who it is who’s going to have what levels of influence in what the U.S. government and the Trump administration does. And we still simply don’t know who’s going to prevail among these factions.
AMY GOODMAN: And what role do movements play in this now, Glenn?
GLENN GREENWALD: So, I think that—I think the most important thing is that, you know, you have things like the Constitution that are supposed to impose limits on what even a deranged leader can do. You have courts that are supposed to check that and Congress that is supposed to check that and the media that is supposed to check that—all of which have failed. And I think the only truly effective check against true abuse of power is popular revolt, popular protest. But in order for that to work, it can’t just be confined to some sort of partisan movement. Remember, you had huge marches against the Iraq War in cities like San Francisco and New York and Washington and Los Angeles in 2003 that were ignored because they were viewed mostly as just liberal or Democratic supporters, and therefore viewed through a partisan prism. It has to be a kind of transpartisan movement, where the American population really stands up and says, "This is not about ideology. This is about the choice between democracy and authoritarianism. And we choose democracy." And I do think that, ultimately, only popular movements are the kinds of force that can really put a meaningful check on things Trump wants to do.
AMY GOODMAN: That’s Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Glenn Greenwald, one of the founders of The Intercept. We’ll link to his articles at democracynow.org. Also, to see Part 1 of our conversation with Glenn that we had with him yesterday on Democracy Now!, go to democracynow.org.
