And then of course, was a representative in Congress, right? So very, very, very achieved woman. And she's not be considered for the Director of National Intelligence.
[0:10:00 - 0:10:10] ▶
And also Congress, right? If you don't like the person, there's an old saying that bad people are,
[0:13:10 - 0:13:14] ▶
how this all precipitated after World War II right on the heels of World War II. Congress realized that after looking at the lessons learned of War War II that there was some dysfunction in our national security.
[0:15:04 - 0:15:16] ▶
And as a result, 9-11 happened and it was part of the 9-11 Commission reports that Congress had commissioned to say what, what failed, how did this happen?
[0:16:11 - 0:16:20] ▶
Okay. So, um, let's, let's take, for example, um, a law that Congress decides to pass Congress says we are going to pass the law that says x, y, z. And here is an act of congressional act, right. Like I said, National Security Act of 1947 or the CI enhancement act of 2002 or the IR TPA of 2004, right. There's these, these acts that are passed by Congress. Then it's up to the executive branch to pass direct is because member.
[0:25:55 - 0:26:23] ▶
Congress's function is to make laws. It's executive branches responsibility to enforce laws. So to enforce those laws, you have things like executive orders, like executive order, E 12, triple three on United States intelligence activities. You have all these orders, maybe a national security directive and NSD that comes out. Then you have, DOD will put out their DOD directive based upon an executive order.

But they can write what S O P's standing operating. Oh yeah. So all those things start cascading down as a result of Congress passing a law and people don't understand that that policies are there to basically how does my organization, my office, implement.
[0:27:15 - 0:27:34] ▶
Congress's law and the president's desire and that's why all these policies and rules and regulations are important because that's how government works. You have, you have to codify and writing for it to be real. Otherwise, it's just hearsay. So there's a whole process to do that. And if you write the wrong policy, you can find yourself in a really bad situation because policy is basically the decree on how we're going to do something as an organization. And if you have bad policy, then you can make bad decisions.
[0:27:34 - 0:28:02] ▶
Well, even though we had we had all the receipts. We had we had the goods we knew it. And so did Congress and so did everybody else. But it started there where they started lying about me.
[0:31:30 - 0:31:38] ▶
That's egregious. You already have elected members of Congress having these things,
[1:04:02 - 1:04:06] ▶
not at the Intel, meaning like maybe Intel briefing people in Congress or things like that,
[1:22:23 - 1:22:28] ▶
something like 99 or 100% of all cargo. Congress passed a law actually. And finally, DHS said we
