um you know I was part of the whole um you know I was part of the whole system post 911 I can tell you I never system post 911 I can tell you I never system post 911 I can tell you I never had a time even during continuing had a time even during continuing had a time even during continuing resolutions where like if I went to the resolutions where like if I went to the resolutions where like if I went to the boss and said hey boss I got this great boss and said hey boss I got this great boss and said hey boss I got this great operation going on you need more money operation going on you need more money operation going on you need more money they always found money for me and I they always found money for me and I they always found money for me and I think I think I think we started think I think I think we started think I think I think we started confusing good managers for good confusing good managers for good confusing good managers for good leaders. So after 9/11 Patriot Act leaders. So after 9/11 Patriot Act leaders. So after 9/11 Patriot Act opened up a bunch of authorities um a opened up a bunch of authorities um a opened up a bunch of authorities um a bunch of operations were opened up and bunch of operations were opened up and bunch of operations were opened up and you know the good managers are the ones you know the good managers are the ones you know the good managers are the ones who could juggle a gazillion different who could juggle a gazillion different who could juggle a gazillion different things at once. I you know I wish I was things at once. I you know I wish I was things at once. I you know I wish I was one of those people. I was never good at one of those people. I was never good at one of those people. I was never good at juggling a gazillion things at once. I juggling a gazillion things at once. I juggling a gazillion things at once. I you know I stuck to sort of a handful of you know I stuck to sort of a handful of you know I stuck to sort of a handful of things I knew I could accomplish. But things I knew I could accomplish. But things I knew I could accomplish. But the good managers, they could. And they the good managers, they could. And they the good managers, they could. And they were working in a time where there was a were working in a time where there was a were working in a time where there was a ton of money. We've always had money. ton of money. We've always had money. ton of money. We've always had money. We've always had money. And so those We've always had money. And so those We've always had money. And so those good managers who didn't really have to good managers who didn't really have to good managers who didn't really have to get tested about, hey, should we do get tested about, hey, should we do get tested about, hey, should we do this? Should we save this money for this? Should we save this money for this? Should we save this money for something else? Should we make this something else? Should we make this something else? Should we make this moral decision on blah blah blah blah moral decision on blah blah blah blah moral decision on blah blah blah blah blah? Uh they got confused as good blah? Uh they got confused as good blah? Uh they got confused as good leaders. So they got they metriculated leaders. So they got they metriculated leaders. So they got they metriculated upwards and they were never really and upwards and they were never really and upwards and they were never really and this is a generalization they were never this is a generalization they were never this is a generalization they were never really tested in terms of uh moral really tested in terms of uh moral really tested in terms of uh moral decisions or decisions that were decisions or decisions that were decisions or decisions that were weighty in terms of like should we weighty in terms of like should we weighty in terms of like should we continue doing this operation or not. So continue doing this operation or not. So continue doing this operation or not. So you know and we had chances to be you know and we had chances to be you know and we had chances to be tested. How many people spoke up during tested. How many people spoke up during tested. How many people spoke up during um the whole enhanced interrogation um the whole enhanced interrogation um the whole enhanced interrogation piece? How many people came forward and

piece? How many people came forward and piece? How many people came forward and said, "Hey, last I checked, that's said, "Hey, last I checked, that's said, "Hey, last I checked, that's torture." torture." torture." >> Well, one did. >> Well, one did. >> Well, one did. >> One did and he was destroyed, right? >> One did and he was destroyed, right? >> One did and he was destroyed, right? >> He went to prison >> He went to prison >> He went to prison >> under the subsequent administration, >> under the subsequent administration, >> under the subsequent administration, which was the amazing part. which was the amazing part. which was the amazing part. >> That's crazy. >> That's crazy. >> That's crazy. >> So, he came forward during Bush, but >> So, he came forward during Bush, but >> So, he came forward during Bush, but Obama got there and John Brennan Obama got there and John Brennan Obama got there and John Brennan immediately saw that he was indicted and immediately saw that he was indicted and immediately saw that he was indicted and sent to prison and wrecked his life. So sent to prison and wrecked his life. So sent to prison and wrecked his life. So all these managers who have continued to all these managers who have continued to all these managers who have continued to be moved up, they've never had to make be moved up, they've never had to make be moved up, they've never had to make hard moral decision, co heads, and you hard moral decision, co heads, and you hard moral decision, co heads, and you got people saying, "Hey, I've got got people saying, "Hey, I've got got people saying, "Hey, I've got religious rights.

Summary
The discussion centers on a former intelligence operative's decision to become a whistleblower regarding COVID origins and vaccine mandates. Key subjects include his time with the State Department, CIA, and Second Ranger Battalion, and his testimony to Congress, driven by perceived obstruction and a desire to expose misinformation. The takeaway is the courage and conviction required to speak truth to power, even when facing significant personal and professional consequences.
