bit about whether or not the main justice department should be handling this case? i think there is to some extent a coordination that is being found out in the states, but do we need more than one investigation to get to the bottom of what happened? or is it premature to do that right? now if i were working in the use of a office i would ask for coronation on this. it happens. when there s cases in multiple states. in these cases, when we work together, someone would take the lead as the main justice and you would have conference calls, video teleconferences, and you would coordinate a strategy. in the next 30 days we re going to communicate with these folks. we re gonna send out trend security? it was a coordinated strategy or like that. i still think you need state
you would have conference calls, video teleconferences and develop a coordinated strategy. in the next 30 days we re going to interview these folks and share the reports of those interviews and see what we have. we re going to send out grand jury subpoenas to try to get phone records for all of these people. there s a coordinated strategy like that. with the department of justice you have the ability to do that. i still think you need the state actors, the u.s. attorney s offices in all of those states because they are the boots on the ground. they have the ability to work with the local fbi, to get out and interview people and gather the records. but coordinating together really is the value of the federal government working together as opposed to each state doing its own thing. i wanted to ask you, barbara, about this landmark seditious conspiracy indictment charge that the doj has brought against the leader of the oath keepers, stewart rhodes. you are one of the few lawyers having
but they are not going to be able to get all of the people that are in let s not even say kabul. all over the country to the airport out in time. definitely not by august 31st. all right our pentagon team is talking to officials saying it will be extremely challenging at a point where they re ramping up at this moment not ready to say august 31st is anywhere close to a deadline. dana: secretary of state of defense lloyd austin and mark milley are at the white house now. i imagine they do want to meet. the president was at camp david by himself. i know you can have secure video teleconferences and i m sure they did work all weekend. it is remarkable that you have not you haven t talked to any world leader until president biden did yesterday after the press briefing when it was revealed he hadn t talked to anybody and he called boris johnson. mark milley and lloyd austin hasn t spoken but neither has
bill, is he talking to general grove, the senior central command intelligence officer on a daily basis. this is unheard of. i have been in these video teleconferences. i used to go to a nightly btc with general skermaker and other guys. this is not done routinely only done on surges. the fact that this guy clapper is calling down every day, tells me that he is not simply trying to find out what s going on. he is trying to posit into the process what needs to come out at the other end. this is where it is bad. i know some of these analysts. let me be clear there is nothing in it for them. these people have devoted their entire lives, some of them have worked 30 to 40 years simply to do what is necessary for the american people and their interest. they are doing it with a great deal of reluctance. colonel, what is their main beef that the white house is doing, what? the intelligence process has been compromised.
