the nbc terrorist analyst who has consulted for the fbi and others. he is the co-founder of the cyber intelligence firm flash point. thank you for coming in yet again as the subject turns to your bailey wick. i know you're not a political analyst but i have to ask you about timing. this is a president who has said, how much do we love wikileaks? this comes out about modes of surveillance. at a time when the president has made a so far evidence-free charge about mes o surveillance. anything strike you as odd? >> i don't see how this could be in his interests. president trump is no longer the opposition. he is the representative of this government. and these tools, these agencies, these intelligence agencies, they are there to serve him and to provide him with data. it amazes me, i find it hard to fathom how this could be in his interests. this is against everybody's interests.
