headquarters in d.c. for the official who just got arrested on ten felony counts for bribery. she is charged with alleged crimes that started right after hurricane maria in october 2017. according to the indictment, her alleged crimes started in october 2017 and continued through april of this year, april 2019. we have obtained an april 2019 fema org chart. and as you can see, here, right in the center, here is the deputy regional administrator for the caribbean area, as it says at the top of the chart there, that s the person who just got charged with ten felony counts for bribery. and as you can see, there is one line that shows where she connects to fema headquarters. so, the line that goes to the right out of her little box. and there s one guy s name in that box that she connects to, and that is the guy trump nominated to be the new head of fema.
officials atop the department of homeland security and deputy secretary of homeland security post and in the position of acting administrator overseeing fema. what do we know about those officials? so peter gainer is currently the administrator at fema. that s probably a name most of your viewers ever heard of before. he replaced brock long last year. this will be his first hurricane season. by all accounts he s one of those longtime government emergency response managers who has done this before and who is, by all accounts, someone who is seen as quite competent in this role. that said, he s an acting official. we have from the top down, if you look at the org chart at the department of homeland security, it s really unprecedented, the head secretary hasn t even been nominated, heads of cdp, heads of uscis, the heads of almost every agency under the dhs umbrella are people who have not been confirmed, people who are
intelligence services. so we ve known for this some time that stone was a bridge to wikileaks, he s the inner circle and this is again, yesterday s indictment is further collaboration. there were people from the trump administration and elsewhere who criticized it as a witch-hunt. it s start to go look pretty smart and i take no pride in that this was an attack on our democracy. it wasn t simply an attack on the dnc. and you see you just take a step back, the number of people that have now been ensnared in this who are part of the trump inner circle and you ve talked a lot about photograph 12 of the indictment. and the question presented, when you read this, a senior trump campaign official was directed to contact stone so you just do an org chart.
forgotten about, it was a one or two-day story. scott pruitt, ryan zinke, leaving or potentially left. you look at wilbur ross the amount of corruption, the amount of conflicts of interests that are just endemic and at every time someone sort of pulls a thread, even fairly low down on the org chart, you find either corruption, incompetence, or someone using racial slurs on their facebook page. literally, those are the three things. no self-respecting republican really wants to be in the administration. my frustration is no self-respecting republican is speaking out actively every day against this administration. as far as i m concerned, your silence is being complicit with what this president, his administration and the party are doing. it s interesting, because we do election monitoring in countries like where you have corrupt regimes. what happens is the corruption spirals. yeah. i think in the congo, mobutu
