5:08 pm
>> mike: this week the president faces the administration benghazis scandal to be his national h securityis advisor.c is he is the right pick for such a critical position? maybe it's time for me to take the hot a seat. clinton's campaign and fox news contribute jehmu greene and the host of stand up radio show petei dominic. let's take about the susan rice appointment. good choice for the president to make? >> of course. he is a good choice becauseca primarily she is one his closest advisors. governor huckabee, let's go back and imagine a huckabee administration. >> i have. [ laughter ]
5:09 pm
>> you would have been making the decisions s someone who is a skilledat diplomat. you almost said democrat.st said >> but someone that has a close and trusted relationship with like he has with six years with ambassador rice. that is what his choice was in this woman. i think when we get past g all the conspiracy aroundou benghazi the american people will see the role she played ander accomplishments at the u.n.. this is ants incredible selection for the president. >> mike: one thing youg said this publicly, i don't necessarily blame susan rice for the talking points and all of the talk show appearances after benghaziar because she was the one b person who really didn'trs know anything. they gave her a script and a she went and read it. people that should have gone was hillary clinton,
5:10 pm
david petraeus, leon panetta, they did not and in fact s it turned out she was trotted out there. susan rice, goodic appointment? >> i think so. it's hard to know exactly what makes the bests national security advisor.se i think when you look past some ofeh the past people including condoleezza rice.e, a lot of that relationship is about trust.t president has to have someone he can really trust. with a lot of qualifications, she worked in the nsa. she has ph.d. and she is intelligent. most people including yourro audience didn't hear susansu rice until the benghazi thing you admit yourself don't blame her for it. i would throw it back to you, why isn't he is qualified and how do you important is it that he chooses at the pleasure ofre the president someone you
5:11 pm
really trust. >> mike: ikn get that. let's talk about trust. can we trust the government now knowing that they had access to all of our phoneey records and computer records and everything. r i want to play a clip.an this is senator obama 2005. >> if someone wants to know why their own government has decided to go on a fishing expedition throught every personal record or private document to thea library books you read, the emails that you have sent, phone calls you made this legislation give no right to appeal the need for suche a search in a court of law. c no judge will hear your plea, no jury will hear your case. this is just plain wrong. >> mike: it was wrong in 2005, is it still wrong? >> with those remarks heno said that what he knows
5:12 pm
now.s back in '70s the supreme court we don't have a right to privacy for our phone records. this isd not something new. a lost stuff that have bubbled up this past week the government is, responsible for protecting us. yes, it's surveillance something we should be concerned about. absolutely, but when it isei checked by the other branches of government peerdz. g >> mike: are- you okay with all this? >> notth at all.t? i don't find this liberal, conservative divide. this is privacy security. where do you fall down on that. they admitted using thatha helped them thwart a terrorist attack. what are you more concernedbo about. terrorist attack and that is what americans have toas ask themselves. it matters. it's not so easy there. it's wiretapping, it'sin emails, cameras everywheres.
5:13 pm
in your studio, you have five cameras but everybody in the y audience has a camera too, governor. we have to decided what kind. of society he want toiety be and whether or not weth will be protecting by this orot not. >> mike: here is my problem, we say we wanted to be safe but what are we protecting against. we are protecting againsto terrorist. if we give up our freedom. >> if you think you are going to die in terrorist attack versus a heart attack you have been duped. the government need this much information on us. is it even constitutionallyut appropriate for the government to invade this level of our privacy. we have to leave it there because our time is gone. they are patriots, they refuse to be silent.us tell the truth. former government workers that have enough corruption

[ applause ] >> during the transition after being elected as president, barack obama's website spelled out the agenda on protection of whistleblowers. often the best source of information about waste, fraud and abuse in government is existing government employee committed to public integrity and willing to speak out. such acts of courage and patriotism which can sometimes save lives and often save taxpayer dollars should be encouraged rather than stifled. my next guest were not encouraged when they tried to expose abuse in
5:18 pm
government. they got fired. they were treated as criminals. thomas drake is a former executive of the national security agency. he was charged under the espionage act after he blew the whistle on illegal activity. and former ethics advisor to the department of justice, she is also a whistleblower. she is now the national security and human rights director at the government accountability project a leading whistleblower organization. thanks both for being here. thomas, let me start with you. when the news broke that the agency you used to work for, the nsa, was spying on its own citizens and collecting massive amounts of data, everything from phone calls and photos we take on our iphones and everything, you were not surprised? >> no, it's become routine. we have a systemic institutionalized surveillance system.
5:19 pm
>> mike: we're told nobody is looking at that stuff. how confident are you? can they look at it if they wanted to one day? >> yes. because they've collected it. >> mike: it's collected and stored. i wonder what mike huckabee has been doing. they can do that? >> extremely tempting to do everything about you, index of your digital life. >> mike: who can keep someone going and looking at those files? >> there are no controls at all. any other controls they talk about are all in secret. there they are not available for public review or debated. >> mike: you blew the whistle nsa and charged with espionage. president said you should be a hero. you should be rewarded for that. >> he said that in 2008 campaign platform, then
5:20 pm
campaign platform boasted about whistle-blowers they had gone after more so than all other administrations combined. >> mike: how has it affected you, obviously has it lost your job? >> turned it upside-down. >> mike: how long were you with nsa. i resigned in 2008, first job back in 9/11. >> mike: for a guy that blew the whistle, tell me reward. >> you are blacklisted. you can't find a job in the government because they charged you with espionage. >> mike: you advised the justice department in john walker lindh taliban case. you thought his rights were being abused. did it get you applause from your superiors? >> at first they agreed with my analysis initially. any american who is subject
5:21 pm
to that. >> mike: you had advised because he had counsel that any interrogation had to require that his counsel be present? >> exactly. >> mike: i learned that in sifx class in ninth grade. you said was his counsel present when he was interrogated? >> no, on friday i came in on monday and then the criminal section told me, oops. f.b.i. interrogated him anyway and at that point i advised interrogation information needed to be sealed. they were welcome to use it for national security and intelligence gathering but not for criminal prosecution. they used it for criminal p>> mike: you objected to that and what happened? >> i discovered there was a court order for all department correspondence related to the interrogation. when i went to check the
5:22 pm
file, all the emails i wrote it had been purged. >> mike: so evidence in essence was destroyed? >> that would be evidence and it disappeared. i resurrected it from my computer archives and wrote a memo to my boss. i attached it and i said i had no idea why this was not around. i took home -- i gave it to my boss. i said i don't know what is going on. i am not going to be a part of it. i took a copy in case it disappeared. >> mike: when we come back the washington culture of rewarding those for helping cover of the scandals. you won't believe it. stay with us, we'll be right back. humans. even when we cross our t's and dot our i's, we still run into problems. namely, other humans. which is why at liberty mutual insurance,

[ applause ] >> mike: federal government has ruined the lives that blew the whistle and rewarding those trying to cover it up. vincent was a special agent with the atf. he was one who exposed the fast and furious operation that sold guns to criminals in mexico. the former number two boss at atf todd jones helped cover up the scandal. he has been nominated by the scandal to direct the agency and has a confirmation hearing scheduled later this month. vincent, this is remarkable stunning story. you blew the whistle on fast and furious when it happened. were you thanked for telling the truth and coming forward and explaining what a horrible fiasco this was? >> there was many that came forward in concert with my actions hoping to change the culture in the bureau and stop the culture of
5:27 pm
fear and intimidation along the lines, everyone had been pushed and suffered great personal and professional damages. it continues to this day. >> mike: you have been a career guy with the atf. you are still on the payroll, is that correct? >> that is correct. >> mike: they haven't gotten rid of you but what do they have you doing for them now? >> they haven't gotten rid of me not through the lack of trying. currently i'm assigned as senior operations offer for the san francisco field division performing the duties from my residence while the government fights the government over the outcome of the proposed actions they've tried to take against me. >> mike: they did fire you at one time and realize they didn't have any basis and reinstated you but they have you basically doing nothing.
5:28 pm
is that correct? >> that is absolutely correct. i'm sitting and waiting for lawyers to figure out how they are going to back out of this situation. >> mike: vincent, i think about this. taxpayers are paying your salary atf doesn't want you to do anything and they probably don't want you to talk to me on national television. you risked your career. you had a good career. i've read things about you from peers. you are one of the best, fearless agents ttatf had. what has done to your career and life? >> it's devastated me personally. my family, that is the point i want to make. it's not just the agents or people who step forward who try to correct or right the wrongs. the families suffer.
5:29 pm
friends, it's this whole failure of accountability that is just mindboggling and how the attorneys and government supports this kind of conduct. i don't know how they expect to change fear and reprisal when they continue doing it. >> mike: todd jones was a supervisor and now up to be the head of atf. president has a lot of confidence in him. should we be concerned that here is a guy that knew about fast and furious, according to many sources including you, help cover it up. now, he is going to lead the agency? >> it's not just that issue. i mean he came in at the end of it. clearly he was the end of the mess, but more important what he has done since acting director. in the amplified fear of retaliation and the issues that have continued to this day that the attacks on
5:30 pm
agents. they are going to trial in his case on monday. they have more ample evidence of unethical conduct and there is no fail safe. government attorneys that were supposed to be the fail safe or second set of eyes are continuing to protect corruption and mismanagement. it's not going to change as long as these managers never face accountability. >> mike: you were an attorney in the department of justice. how shocked when you hear about his own situation? >> since i have been a whistleblower attorney i'm not shocked at all. it's quite typical you are forced from your job, your security clearance is pulled. often you are referred for a mental examination. then you are no longer pulling in income and at the same time you are racking up legal fees because you've probably
5:31 pm
gotten a lawyer or some people like vince are transferred to what we call the paper cup stacking position in your office. you are doing nothing and still on the government payroll. i've represented people that have been in that situation for years. it does resign your life. it does completely derail your career, they need security clearance in order to work for the government. >> mike: stay with us. because the widespread corruption, it's not limited to the federal government. coming up we'll talk to a local public executive who speaks out on being admonished for hiring white people. that is next.

5:37 pm
right of center or conservative, a female erin and i should not hire her. i said that was illegal and unconstitutional and i would not do that. i tendered my resignation at that time. >> mike: it's shocking. i want to give you an opportunity to respond because the board has issued a statement the current board action has been on his refusal to comply with the law. at no time the s there anything to the contrary not to the unproven allegations of discrimination. i would like to respond to, with a you were the one doing illegal things. >> governor, what is important here what they don't say. they never denied that the statements were made. i provided you with the smoking gun.

the december 19th2012 memo written by agency's counsel, they represent the board. i was head of the agency but she didn't represent me. then her memo, she advised the board what they were doing was illegal and they had to cease and desist. if you look at one portion of the memo, it's impermissible to discriminate against people because of their political affiliation. that the board could not retaliate against me for refusing to oppose their discriminatory practices or directives of not hiring white males. >> you know, this sort of goes in-sync what we've been hearing coming out of the irs. there were targeted efforts to people that had a political viewpoint.
5:39 pm
do we need to be worried as american citizens at all levels, even federal levels the rights and concerns of people are being stomped all over? >> we think of this as being a local problem, but article one, section 8 of the u.s. constitution gives congress complete authority over washington, d.c. its federal territory. it's not a state. so your federal tax dollars are going to washington, d.c. via congress. those tax dollars are being wasted on discriminatory practices. >> mike: ondray stay with us. when we come back, we'll talk about just how big this is, why you ought to be concerned about it. and what i can do about it. stay with us.

5:45 pm
why. i want to get to that. why did you go public? why did you tell the story a expose things that you thought were wrong? >> primarily because it had gotten out of control and become institutional, widespread and a practice rather than the exception to the rule. it became the way of doing business. i want to know where you got the atf playbook. everything she stated occurred in her situation or client's situation has happened to me. it's standard practice. attack those making the allegations. the actual people involved in the fast and furious oversight, they have been pass turd. they are going to their families. brian is never going home to his family. >> mike: the ones that went along that didn't blow the

5:47 pm
i couldn't accept that. >> mike: i think all of you are heroes. there are a lot of ways to be heroes. sometimes it's taking up arms and wearing a uniform. god knows how i appreciate our military but willing to stand up against your own government when you think they are wrong, you become a hero. obviously if you had stayed quiet, gone along, you could have gotten along and probably been promoted. you wouldn't be sitting here today. you would have been enjoying nice weekend with your families for shutting up. but if people like you don't speak up, we're not talking about the loss of jobs. we are talking about the loss of this great republic and everything we hold dear. that for which we send soldiers to fight. if they are not fighting for freedom and fighting for a government that treats us all the same then why are we sending them? i want to thank you for being here.
