The life and death type thing that people don’t expect they’ll ever be in. But after 9/11, we realized that in the Minnesota office, the agents had been working on the most suspicious flight student that had ever crossed their paths: Zacarias Moussaoui.They were called by flight instructors separately from a flight school. And this guy had said, ‘I just want to learn how to fly for a joy ride.’ There were pages detailing suspicion of him. The agents then sought emergency, not just the normal Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act request to search his belongings. They actually identified that he could fly into the World Trade Center from the start.Here’s where I come in.After 9/11, FBI Director Mueller went before the cameras and said, ‘We didn’t know any of this. We could have maybe prevented 9/11 if we’d had any intelligence.’ I actually got on the phone and said, ‘That’s not a good thing to say because there was a lot of intelligence.’Dick Cheney had fought tooth and nail against any accountability. But in the spring of 2002, I get this call: ‘Well, Colleen, you’re going to be one of the people called to talk to the investigators of the Joint Intelligence Committee.’And when I got the call, I went, ‘oh my gosh, there’s been a cover up.’ Now you can’t say that. Cover up is a verboten word. You can’t say cover up. But you know what? That’s what it was. After 9/11, no one would admit that they had all this information.Watch our full interview with Coleen to hear how she risked her job, and possibly even her life, to break the information out of the FBI.00:00 Intro00:44 Palantir's Alex Karp goes insane trying to sell AI03:16 Corey Booker can't say no to bombs for Israel05:31 JD Vance is losing control in Iran06:48 Coleen Rowley interview: What really happened before 9/11?21:44 Did you ever fear you'd be imprisoned?Our Sponsors:* Check out Quince and use my code quince.com/USEFUL for a great deal: https://www.quince.com* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code USEFUL for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

For expressing this analysis, the European Union sanctioned him, accusing him of spreading conspiracy theories and pro-Russian propaganda.Jacques is now barred from using his own bank account or even buying himself food. It seems Russiagate truly never ends.Our second guest is Benoît Paré, who was a monitor on the ground for the OSCE after the Maidan Coup in Ukraine from 2014 to 2022 during the civil war which eventually led to the Russian invasion. For our full interview with Benoît, which gets into false flags, civil war, and whether Russia will be able to hold onto its advantage in the next year, please subscribe and support our work.You’ll also get our Friday Free-for-All: here’s a screenshot from today’s episode that gives an idea of the insanity we went through watching an episode of Morning Joe, starring Hillary Clinton and Donny Deutsch.00:00 Intro02:20 Hillary Clinton Claims Netanyahu KNEW About October 7 Before Attack07:40 Aaron's take: Did Netanyahu know?08:04 Jacques Baud interview24:00 Why the far-right party in Europe just won elections36:59 EU Sanctions Jacques for his reporting48:49 It's illegal to bring Jacques food57:26 Benoît Paré interview1:00:10 The greatest media manipulations over the Ukraine War1:11:07 An argument for the Ukrainian sideOur Sponsors:* Check out Quince and use my code quince.com/USEFUL for a great deal: https://www.quince.com* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code USEFUL for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
