this bloating hiring of people so I
think that’s one of the things you start

one of the things I would start to do

283
00:05:09,740 –> 00:05:12,370
one of the things I would start to do
now I would remove completely operations

00:06:08,500 –> 00:06:08,510
even among case officers so it’s just

339
00:06:08,510 –> 00:06:10,360
even among case officers so it’s just
not something where a one-size-fits-all

combining those two things up you start

to degrade that information and this is

412
00:07:23,770 –> 00:07:23,780
to degrade that information and this is

413
00:07:23,780 –> 00:07:25,570
to degrade that information and this is
what we’ve seen happen it’s greatly

414
00:07:25,570 –> 00:07:25,580
what we’ve seen happen it’s greatly

415
00:07:25,580 –> 00:07:27,610
what we’ve seen happen it’s greatly
degraded it’s very political now it’s

416
00:07:27,610 –> 00:07:27,620
degraded it’s very political now it’s

417
00:07:27,620 –> 00:07:29,440
degraded it’s very political now it’s
weaponized it’s used for all sorts of

418
00:07:29,440 –> 00:07:29,450
weaponized it’s used for all sorts of

419
00:07:29,450 –> 00:07:31,660
weaponized it’s used for all sorts of
things it was never ever intended to be

things it was never ever intended to be

421
00:07:31,670 –> 00:07:33,240
things it was never ever intended to be
so I think it’s extraordinarily

422
00:07:33,240 –> 00:07:33,250
so I think it’s extraordinarily

423
00:07:33,250 –> 00:07:35,650
so I think it’s extraordinarily
important that those things be separated

424
00:07:35,650 –> 00:07:35,660
important that those things be separated

425
00:07:35,660 –> 00:07:38,140
important that those things be separated

and espionage across the world so that’s

467
00:08:22,160 –> 00:08:24,610
and espionage across the world so that’s
just so much power in so few hands and I

00:08:41,060 –> 00:08:42,790
parts the larger of the two is the
criminal division which everyone expects

00:08:53,230 –> 00:08:53,240
much like the CIA it has a little bit

497
00:08:53,240 –> 00:08:56,110
much like the CIA it has a little bit
greater emphasis on CI counter-intel

992
00:17:25,149 –> 00:17:25,159
because they’re more public and it’s

993
00:17:25,159 –> 00:17:27,819
because they’re more public and it’s
easier to discuss a sort of forum but

994
00:17:27,819 –> 00:17:27,829
easier to discuss a sort of forum but

995
00:17:27,829 –> 00:17:29,919
easier to discuss a sort of forum but
they all had these top-level clearances

996
00:17:29,919 –> 00:17:29,929
they all had these top-level clearances

997
00:17:29,929 –> 00:17:31,389
they all had these top-level clearances
of course for the position that they

998
00:17:31,389 –> 00:17:31,399
of course for the position that they

999
00:17:31,399 –> 00:17:32,799
of course for the position that they
were in and they all had to be

1000
00:17:32,799 –> 00:17:32,809
were in and they all had to be

1001
00:17:32,809 –> 00:17:34,570
were in and they all had to be
polygraphed which is done periodically

1002
00:17:34,570 –> 00:17:34,580
polygraphed which is done periodically

1003
00:17:34,580 –> 00:17:36,460
polygraphed which is done periodically
theoretically it’s done every five years

1004
00:17:36,460 –> 00:17:36,470
theoretically it’s done every five years

1005
00:17:36,470 –> 00:17:38,200
theoretically it’s done every five years
or so now there’s a horrible backlog it

1006
00:17:38,200 –> 00:17:38,210
or so now there’s a horrible backlog it

1007
00:17:38,210 –> 00:17:40,090
or so now there’s a horrible backlog it
doesn’t take place that often but that

1008
00:17:40,090 –> 00:17:40,100
doesn’t take place that often but that

1009
00:17:40,100 –> 00:17:42,820
doesn’t take place that often but that
is the idea and one of the things I

1010
00:17:42,820 –> 00:17:42,830
is the idea and one of the things I

1011
00:17:42,830 –> 00:17:44,350
is the idea and one of the things I
think that needs to be built into that

1012
00:17:44,350 –> 00:17:44,360
think that needs to be built into that

1013
00:17:44,360 –> 00:17:45,820
think that needs to be built into that
that would eliminate a lot of these

1014
00:17:45,820 –> 00:17:45,830
that would eliminate a lot of these

1015
00:17:45,830 –> 00:17:48,159
that would eliminate a lot of these
people like James Comey and Peter struck

1016
00:17:48,159 –> 00:17:48,169
people like James Comey and Peter struck

1017
00:17:48,169 –> 00:17:50,169
people like James Comey and Peter struck
should never ever upheld a clearance

1018
00:17:50,169 –> 00:17:50,179
should never ever upheld a clearance

1019
00:17:50,179 –> 00:17:51,740
should never ever upheld a clearance
clearly they were not up

1020
00:17:51,740 –> 00:17:51,750
clearly they were not up

1021
00:17:51,750 –> 00:17:53,390
clearly they were not up
to the requirements you know they

1022
00:17:53,390 –> 00:17:53,400
to the requirements you know they

1023
00:17:53,400 –> 00:17:55,190
to the requirements you know they
weren’t reliable enough for national

1024
00:17:55,190 –> 00:17:55,200
weren’t reliable enough for national

1025
00:17:55,200 –> 00:17:56,870
weren’t reliable enough for national
security reasons to have a clearance

1026
00:17:56,870 –> 00:17:56,880
security reasons to have a clearance

1027
00:17:56,880 –> 00:17:58,370
security reasons to have a clearance
which of them by the way I don’t think

1028
00:17:58,370 –> 00:17:58,380
which of them by the way I don’t think

1029
00:17:58,380 –> 00:17:59,780
which of them by the way I don’t think
their clearances have been pulled even

1030
00:17:59,780 –> 00:17:59,790
their clearances have been pulled even

1031
00:17:59,790 –> 00:18:01,580
their clearances have been pulled even
yet but I think one of the questions

1032
00:18:01,580 –> 00:18:01,590
yet but I think one of the questions

1033
00:18:01,590 –> 00:18:03,050
yet but I think one of the questions
that should be built-in now this isn’t

1034
00:18:03,050 –> 00:18:03,060
that should be built-in now this isn’t

1035
00:18:03,060 –> 00:18:04,850
that should be built-in now this isn’t
just a single one question it would be a

1036
00:18:04,850 –> 00:18:04,860
just a single one question it would be a

1037
00:18:04,860 –> 00:18:06,620
just a single one question it would be a
series of questions to get to the bottom

1038
00:18:06,620 –> 00:18:06,630
series of questions to get to the bottom

1039
00:18:06,630 –> 00:18:08,090
series of questions to get to the bottom
of it but it should be built around the

1040
00:18:08,090 –> 00:18:08,100
of it but it should be built around the

1041
00:18:08,100 –> 00:18:09,860
of it but it should be built around the
concept of what’s more important to you

1042
00:18:09,860 –> 00:18:09,870
concept of what’s more important to you

1043

a clearance and and clearly the answer

00:18:46,920 –> 00:18:49,610
a clearance and and clearly the answer
is not because your priority is not the

so we’ve long long eliminated people

so we’ve long long eliminated people

1089
00:18:56,970 –> 00:18:58,940
so we’ve long long eliminated people

so that would be kind of the final thing

1096
00:19:04,640 –> 00:19:04,650
so that would be kind of the final thing

1097
00:19:04,650 –> 00:19:06,410
so that would be kind of the final thing
that I’d built in to this so that we

1098

that I’d built in to this so that we

1099
00:19:06,420 –> 00:19:07,940
that I’d built in to this so that we
could start to eliminate these people

could start to eliminate these people

1101
00:19:07,950 –> 00:19:09,470

classified document printed it off took
it home and gave it to the press and so

it home and gave it to the press and so

1125
00:19:33,480 –> 00:19:35,180
it home and gave it to the press and so
she leaked information why did she

1126

she leaked information why did she

1127
00:19:35,190 –> 00:19:36,950
she leaked information why did she
leaked it when she was arrested for this

1128
00:19:36,950 –> 00:19:36,960
leaked it when she was arrested for this

1129
00:19:36,960 –> 00:19:38,390
leaked it when she was arrested for this
and I believe she’s still in jail for
