Every american who watches this is going to ask the question, who can i trust . As a former fbi agent and chairman of the house intelligence committee, i had oversight of all 16 of our nations intelligence agencies. My name is mike rogers. I had access to classified information gathered by our operators, people who risked everything for the United States and our families. You dont know their faces or their names. You dont know the real stories from the people who lived the fear and the pressure until now. 1960. Thats the year our technical experts thought russia would finally be able to develop a bomb. 1949 is when they had their bomb. Credit russian espionage agents. Agents and national traitors. Spying is something thats been with us throughout history. Its been particularly true with the russians, going back to the soviet union and the cold war. They had their spies, we had our spies. They werent the superpower confrontation that the soviet union was all about. But they represent a
Montreal area in the 1960s in childhood. Decades later in the 1980s, these two russian adults, these two spies stole those identities from those deceased kids from the 1960s and under those identities they started a fake life in toronto. The couple lived in toronto through the 80s and into the 90s. In the 90s as Donald Heathfield and tracy leanne, the fake identities, they had two sons, their sons were born four years apart. After their sons were born in canada in the 90s the family moved sometime in the mid to late 90s to france where the father, Donald Heathfield, went to grad school. He was fluent in french as well as english. As was his wife. The family apparently spoke both french and english at home with their boys. They didnt speak russian at home with their boys even though they were from russia and were native russian speakers. Their sons apparently had no idea that their parents were russian at all. When the story of their very unusual family was ultimately told, the boys wou
Good evening from our nbc headquarters in new york. The president kicked off with the nato summit with the attack on the alliance. Just as few hours ago after midnight in brussels, he wrote this. Billions of additional dollars are being spent by nato countries since my visit last year at my request. It is not enough. U. S. Spends too much. Europes borders are bad. Pipeline dollars to russia are not acceptable. Germany buys natural gas from russ russia. It is very sad when germany makes a massive oil and gas deal with russia where we are supposed to be guarding russia and germany goes out and pays billions and billions dollars a year to russia. We are supposed to protect you against russia but theyre paying to russia and i think thats appropriate. Germany is controlled by russia because theyll get 60 or 70 of their energy from russia and a new pipeline. You tell me if thats appropriate because i think it is not. Germany is captive to russia because it is getting so much of its energy fr
There. Peter strzok was refusing to answer a question saying the fbi instructed him not to talk about the investigation into russian meddling that started in the summer of 2016. Why the animosity between democrats and republicans over his answer . The fbi has a well established policy that precludes members of the fbi from discussing an ongoing criminal investigation. The republicans on the committee know this, mr. Strzok invoked that and said hes been directed not to answer questions about the ongoing criminal investigation related to the Trump Campaigns collusion with russian in the president ial election, so they know that. They questioned him for 11 hours. He asserted the same inability to answer questions on the direction of the fbi. This is a well established rule. You cannot discuss an ongoing criminal investigation and despite that they continue to ask him in an effort to have him violate that. The irony is, the clinton hearing on the Clinton Emails was is coming after the ig r
Right now. Much appreciated. Thank you very much. Thanks to you at home for joining us this hour. So they were trained spies. They were highly trained in terms of espionage, but also in terms of language and accent and mannerisms, they were supposed to be able to blend right in. And sometime in the 1980s they arrived in canada. Now they arrived at a couple that had false identities. They had false identities that had been stolen from real canadians. Apparently there had been a little boy in the montreal area in the 1960s whose name had been Donald Heathfield and sometime in the 1960s that little child had died in infancy. There had also been a little girl named Tracy Leanne Foley who had also died in the montreal area in the 1960s in childhood. Decades later in the 1980s these two russian adults, these two spies stole those identities from those deceased kids from the 1960s and under those identities they started a fake life in toronto. The couple lived in toronto through the 80s and i
