and again, um i, this is sort of like my, my 3rd life as a copyright. so i, i, i have a friendship network and i got some really, really good advice all the way back in 1988, a senior deputy at the sheriff's department. i worked for a told me straight out. he said to him, if you're going to do this job, get a get a hobby that doesn't have anything to do with law enforcement and get friends that aren't cops. and it was something i took to heart and i just, i carry that through the year. so i kind of had this network established a prior to that. but i'm pretty well known. and so when they transferred me out of police services and then with the transportation division, there were a lot of people who found me on the side walk away from the year where they couldn't be overheard offered their support, their gratitude i, i'll get a facebook messages from time to time, just your notes of encouragement and they are absolutely critical. jackie, derrick wrote this wonderful book about the psychological effects. yes. of the read

seems to be subcategories, but every single piece of blower should immediately fall under that. ca, to like without question, somebody to change them all that we need because of that psychological damage. i'm just fortunate enough that i planned for the the that was, that was really very forward thinking were speaking with the department of veterans affairs was the blower. tim petoskey, about problems inside the sprawling federal government. we're going to take a short break and come back with more of this conversation, which is stressful. say, tune. 2 2 2 2 2 2 a. 2 a, a, the the

a c and i'll just, i'll just be the closings because i've spoken of. she is a few spoken kids up to seals. this will be the most serious close. i use this key members here, and there was a resuming incident through williams saying if they have can you name it gives nice provide me the message or because i need for someone to bring an issue that escalating some of the brothers just one is correct is that correct? because kamisky what we'll do is we'll do a split system. it continues to pretty good to go through each of the

blue. i'm going to shoot to put the source of you through the acceptance. and i'm going to plan with you whatever you do. do not watch my new show. seriously. why watch something that's so different. whitelisted of opinions that he won't get anywhere else. welcome to please or do have the state department, the c i a weapons, bankers, multi 1000000000 dollar corporations. choose your fax for you. go ahead. change and whatever you do, don't want my show stay main street because i'm probably going to make you uncomfortable. my show is called direction. but again, it's not. we don't want to watch it because it might just change the way you

a skid out and we're still main. do not you then to to, to the bottom to delete the attic window without me stuff in my last total adult. look to the interest has been a little bit more now. i'm just waiting for the theatre. the la. 2 welcome back to the whistle, blowers. i'm john 3 out. good. we're speaking with tim petoskey, whistleblower from the us department of veterans affairs. tim, thanks again for being with us. is always tim frank, sir, because the famed whistle blower from the early 19 seventy's new york police department is a friend of mine. one of the things frank has always been very clear about is that corruption only exists in police departments when police leaders allow it to exist . frank also has been clear that he had very little support from other police officers when he made his revelations. you've said that other police officers in

the va are afraid, and when a whistle blower engages the da's leadership, the va attacks, the officer. these attacks tend to be effective. and the majority of cops are afraid of losing their jobs. and it being attacked in the same way as the whistleblower is attacked. i can tell you that this is also true and national security. the goal of those protecting the wrongdoers is to frighten, would be whistle blowers so that they remain silent. tell us about what you went through immediately after you made your revelations. what was it like inside the va? sure. well, i think the worst was, was definitely um, at the very beginning when joe murphy and i made our original disclosures they, uh they were, they were using the was a traffic cameras to follow as to and from work with the intent to harassing us about you know, showing up on time or not um,

anything that they could fabricate. uh, they attempted to besmirch jose professional reputation when he applied for a p, as in an attempt to abrogate his security clearance of the anything you can think of at some point in time. they, they, i went for an entire month without pay months because they couldn't get their pay. worked out in my i was the only one by the way. right. but they pay me for an entire. um you said something and one of your other uh, um cas about integrity versus honesty and integrity being something about self and honesty but you know something we project for others. i'd also, i'd like to talk to you off of that and suggest that there's an institutional integrity, right, that the integrity of the individuals in those leadership positions bring, which is what i think frank circle was again, which by ways one of my 1st insurers and this thing about intrinsic value and

agencies, professional integrity and the intrinsic value, but that breeds for the agency or lack there of. and that's exactly this, this situation with a d, a where they attacked me, they attacked joe. they tried to project that abuse of authority in a grandiose manner with this sort of a chest pounding. but what we can do to wait with, which is the audacity in my termination case, that is, that is precisely what they are trying to transmit to the workforce. what's a sit in the back of us and shut off. right? and we've seen that in the unit number of our, our students have resigned. we are having all kinds of difficulties in getting back regular support. and we've got numerous cases at the federal relations authority that are focused back on the agents. and i am personally one upwards, i think either 4 or 6 unfair labor practices while from the up since january of

this year. because the agency has been so in bold, and by my termination, while you're there, seems to be a theme here where that you should be able to rely on your, on your union to support you. and it's not just you it's, it's both inside and outside government and they're, they're just really isn't much in the way of support from the union. one of your colleagues also told the media that revelations that the 4 of you made were not taken seriously and were not acted upon. um, usually that's not the case. usually they'll target you try to get rid of you and then quietly implement the changes that you demanded in the beginning. why would the officials engage in a cover up when it would be so much easier just to work with you and make these changes? sure, well it gets back to that, that incompetence, right, bit so speed. they don't know how to do that. but there's also layers and like in

the, in the, in my world back in the day, i know you've been around for a little while anyway. back in the map days and you had the, the acetate and used to do the layers. right. and you build up a picture, right? so in one of those layers is this thing about uh, uh, some of the dangers within a hospital setting that the grandiose. but what am referencing here are actual serial killers that operate inside of medical facilities of all kinds. now there's a wonderful book by bruce sacrament, cold behind the murder treatment focuses specifically on the da's problem in this regard. and one of the things that she touches on in his book is that the serial killers operated to be a do. so at the age that are known to have a 21, police forces, why staff, please cetera. so this is in, there's been some netflix videos and things like that. this is a 4 story for hospital with ministers. the last thing they want is for something

like this to get out and then they have to deal with the kind of panic that comes from it. but as you know, getting ahead of the story is how you deal with is critical elements. but the so incompetent, they have nothing in their tool box to deal with that complex reality. and they can't even handle something like that. in c, i see. right. dr. seattle was one of the only organizations in the state of washington have its terminals pulled because of the incompetent handling of the n. c i c system, right? it's simply walked in the door. i'd say, if you've ever worked with these people in the united state of washington there, and why don't we try to get they tell you what they want, how they want it when they want it. it's, you know, i love my brothers and sisters in the infantry, but it isn't an infantry guy could get this done right. but the v a can't. right. and so how is it going to deal with this incredibly complex situations that you do have to deal with? is the hospital administrator when you're competency level is so low,

you can't handle, you know, something like making sure there's enough paper for exact. hm. one of the tactics that the v a used against you and against the other whistle blowers is, is through the use of your medical records, your medical records were illegally accessed. hundreds of times. i was shocked when i read that in the case of one of your colleagues, he stopped demand for speeding on the grounds of a v, a facility. that man happened to be a v, a psychologist, and the psychologist threatened the officer over the speeding ticket. in the end, the officers medical records were also illegally access 100 times and he was unable to be promoted. presumably you have legal representation to try to guide you through this awful experience. but what is your lawyer say about this kind of illegal retaliation? when, when a psychologist, because you're giving them a, a speeding ticket can pull your medical records and leak them and use them against you. it's so patently illegal. how do you deal with frank?

even worse than that because that particular case that you're talking about, that psychologist was of a clinical psychologist, not a forensic psychologist. we have a system, it's every year they're done by trans ecologist, not kind of a psychologist and the clinical psychologist had to get sort of google boy into the system to even look at that officers case to begin with, let alone accessing his, his records and things like that, but one of the things that we've learned with, i've learned definitely over my time with the da's the, we already cabinet level agency. and that's one of the things that kind of, it's brought me up short. i don't know how many times and it's just taking me, it's taking me quite a while sometimes to wrap my head around it because we are on the same tier is the department of justice. and, you know, i looked a little bit that your story from the, from the c a and i, i, it, it blew my hair back. but one of the things in listening to your story is that the, the v thinks they are the see i, it, they believe,

and they act with that kind of a das city. as if they can just make up something and who is going to make us do anything different and to a large degree there, right, we have to follow the department of justice policy or direction. we're a cabinet level cr agency. and so does the v a have to follow the law? i something i posed to congress all the time because if you don't have an enforcement model, you don't have a lot. if there's nothing there that says del shelton or i will spank you, the v is just going to do with the box, right? right. ways to save the c a all the time. it's better to add now and ask for forgiveness later. so you, i may have those words, right, so you mentioned earlier in the show that you're no longer at the v a

i'm i'm hoping that you still have a whistleblower case pending. so where does your case stand now? it seems like there's been no real changes. no, no interest from capitol hill, no satisfaction for the whistle blowers what happens next for you? so because on the union representatives, the national via council sent me a lawyer and we are taking my cases to arbitration. now the reason why is because the merit system protection board decides 97 percent of the cases for the agency. 97. wow. percent are they were trying to justify that last session before congress and their, their lot logical reasoning if you can call it that is, is, is, is cartoonish as well. so my cases are set for later this year. and the men to be, is going to have to stand in front of an arbiter and an attempt to justify what their position is. however, their attorney is a board certified. and so if their,

if the is the case is going to continue to be that the law isn't the law. that's going to be a real string outcome for that particular lawyer. but the highlight that i want to make here is that if it were not for arbitration, i just be getting the water. right. because it has to be isn't gonna help me. right? they're going to decide for the agency and this has happened to other vehicle the sprague, they've got to work their way through the system. you know, and i think you've experienced this yourself. there is a cost benefit analysis rate. and if the agency can run that cost up, at some point in time, those offices are going to walk away because it's just, it's to monitor really expensive. it's too emotionally expensive, it's too psychologically expensive and to be a rest. that's how they've gotten away with this. um for so many tickets. just crazy. well i, i would like to thank our guest in petoskey, not just for being here with us today, but for allowing us to be his 1st interview. thanks for that. and thanks to our viewers for joining us, sometimes when a police officer is given maximum power,

he bears minimum responsibility. that's why it's incumbent on the rest of us to support those brave officers who stand up in the face of waste, fraud, abuse, or illegality. they are the ones to keep the honest people honest. they are the ones who eventually we'll re route out corruption. they're the ones who are deserving of our support and our respect. i'm john kerry echo, thanks for watching the whistle blowers until next time. 2 2 2 2 2 0, the new session over not giving up. i give a shit

a position associated with the local church. so certificate of boulevard too much and watch coolers, which was a john bullshit. so don't that in the cause of the room and attend the want to know heart, that of all our other choose control the smallest definitely for you press the transfer me to just kind of charlotte. see what the number or something else. let me put this thing up, so let me just confirm that i will start calling charter the correct order. hit on your new north sheriff service in law school from uh that it says total k. i believe this looks like you did you validate the i don't see this conflict, so as the one over a values that's not to say that there might not be differences in values between uh you know, elements of the us population or elements of the us leadership and illness of the

russian population in russian leadership. there may well be some differences, but i don't see it as conflict as having to do with that. i see this primarily as really, frankly, a proxy war on russia's border that is being pursued by the us. the video powers, the the why is the why in control if i give by to the store and this she said, and i showed her on the phone, i'm not going to stay less. so can i scan when i knew what the subject georgia style session on the finance liam? no, that's just shiny or just is fun. you bon, is going you sit on the,

the, the near the, the yeah. it's not getting any better. is it over a 1000 arrested in 24 hours that's from continues to above and in the wake of the faithful police shooting of a 17 year old all the way back on choose day. the ukrainian shell that landed on this house struck the kitchen directly. civilian areas under attack, again by ukrainian forces with at least 9 people wounded in the don't ask for the cords notified norris family, that the eviction may happen any time now within the next 2 weeks. but my plan is to stay. israel supreme court rules that a palestinian family is to be evicted from their home. they shared with many is

really settlers in jerusalem. and amid the budgeting, multi polar world, argentina settles a multi $1000000000.00 payment to the i m f. with a chinese, you won a step towards the global trends of the dollar as ation accelerate the and we are pushing back on the predictable mainstream narratives. this is the international headquarters from musk straight to our top story for you right now. as the world continues to watch in horror, cities across france, bone in k, o, softer a policeman, killed a young man of algeria and descend. right now we are talking $1300.00 arrests in the last 24 hours. the

old president, macro, and meantime, is postponing his state visit to germany due to the cottage. and how are we have this done? $45000.00 offices of being deployed to face off against protesters who armed with fireworks and unconfirmed reports of both a magic weapons. we understand as well, the police have suffered more than 200 casualties for moving away from the capital

. let's have a look at the city center of legal shop, sped, lucid, and vandalized. $31.00 police station was talking to the overnight, at least one of them was bomb with an improvised explosive device. and as writers took a made up matter of say, gun shop, they took off with a host of rifles. meantime, the blame the game as well and the way with the presidents suggesting the parents, social networks and video games. so the true culprits for the main people, i really like cooling a parents to be responsible. it is the parents' responsibility to keep them at home . and so it's important for the calm of everyone that parental responsibility is for the exercise. and i called on the sense of responsibility of mothers and fathers, is that platforms and social networks are playing a considerable role. and the movements of these pos stays. we sort of separate of them, snap check, take talk, and several of the spice of vine and gatherings being organized in a sort of copycatting of violence. this among the youngest leads to a sort of escape from reality. and we sometimes have the feeling that some of them

are living in the streets of the video games dive intoxicated them. the 4 days of riots kicked off after a traffic stop and gone wrong. when police faithfully show his 17 year old, who was driving a stolen car, now he's just being buried in the same curzy in the sub where he was killed on choose a those people right that you're seeing right now. there was a crowd to attended the funeral to show solidarity the air. right. that, that is the video that stuff the data for police and montera attempted to pull over a car with publish license plates driven by the team. but when he did stop, he then decided to flee, and at that moment the police shot him in the chest point blank, of the incident has a re ignited some concerns about the racial profiling and essentially police brutality in the country as well. by discuss the whole story with the political analyst, a use of mallory, he told us that while the riots are on necessarily violent at the society will

divide, has been crazy because of what he calls discrimination. the hands of french authorities as well. i'm talking about public and civil unrest that constantly happens in france every year. of course, i'm not in any way supporting the rights that are taking place in france. i think a lot of it had been very violent. and so something every person should come down by one should never take place in such a situation. but i think this is an indication of the brand frustration of the masses of the people. they're going to be frustrated with the french government. and the reason being, you know, be across the spectrum, where do you begin discrimination rates a little strict, coney and government policies that directly or get the pay with religious background. if you practice and you'll be able hand religions, you know you are no longer type of be practicing those really just kind of because this is the government is in acting a secular,

uh secular policy which directly targeted the religious ideologies of anybody who follows a religious background, this is the growing frustration that the people in france are protesting. and unfortunately why you think about it because of they're not, they're simply not agree with the policies up there. government well, it doesn't look like it's going to come down any time soon. these protests and demonstrations all across from us. we have our finger on the pulse pull. they don't get the latest updates at all. t dot com will so that you can see the latest analysis. assume the format of 3 and 4 minutes. the current can i? so she breaks down what she believes, so the causes and the ramifications of these mess, protest the, to the ukraine conflict now and behind the front lines when 9 people have been wounded as a town and the don't ask a public, came on the shelling again by keeps forces reporting from the scene is a correspondent, roman customer in the hills,

early couple that lives here in this house survived. miraculously, the ukrainian shell that landed on this house struck the kitchen directly. and both of the, both of them there were in the house at that point. thankfully, their kids and their grandkids were in the nets at the time of shedding. at this moment, the house is completely burned down and is destroyed beyond repair. but it but i knew it. i wasn't the garage when the sailing started straight, close the door to the garage and the door was crush. my wife yelled for me. she wasn't the bedroom where the ceiling have collapsed on her. i went out through the garage window and pulled her out. the explosion was instantaneous. as soon as it seemed the house, everything went out at once. the house is completely destroyed,

all of them. according to officials, ukraine fired several rounds bowl from subject made multiple launch rockets systems and need to made $155.00 millimeter hobbit search. now this one, this is a shelf from grad multiple launch rockets system. it landed right in the middle of the street. right next to the kindergarten, which is only about 50 meters away. well, i shall appear to have on the, after the 1st wave of showing, i went out to see if anyone needed help. i met a neighbor and while we were talking, the 2nd wave of showing began. i lay down in the grass and he fell right beside his car. if his car wasn't there, he wouldn't have been so lucky. you and father sent a hose at the time of the assess showing my son was in the room at home, and my husband was at the call. i told my son not to leave the house a shelf. so here my cell go to either a piece of shop, no gloss in his hand. he's in the hospital now. my husband was also injured on his

um, what should we do now? for city of use in nevada is adjacent to the landscape comes under constant ukrainian, shedding nearly every house here. every apartment building every bus stop. every hospital is full of us, wrapped all holes or houses or destroyed, just like this one. however, local residents are still willing to live here in the hope that this conflict will and very soon and be useful. finally, come per month, costs are emergency bonus republic. the meantime, the head of one of our key as largest monasteries, size, ukrainian security officials have offered him a choice to gain his freedom is given a hard positive option, which ultimately spelled out he must denounce the ukrainian orthodox church, which of course has ancient ties to rupture as a pull the transition of his monastery to a different organization, connected with kids regime. but with metropolitan pop over few is the deal saying

he's just done nothing wrong with speaking according key of where a judge extended his current house arrest until the end of august. now it was back in april. he was charged with inciting religious hatred and justifying what he of called russian aggression. now, just days ago, ukraine's president introduced a bill to move the traditional orthodox christmas dates to a lie. and with a catholic calendar, he said that russian id or gee, and his religion had been imposed on ukrainians. even monk so now prohibited from entering the key, but just laughter. and those remaining must leave within the next 3 days. well, we discussed all of this with journalists done the academic jason, michael, he says the religious persecution by the government and keith is actually been going on already for a number of years. there's no mention of this because this is part of an ongoing propaganda campaign where and the broadest of all possible sensors the ukranian regime is being given a blank check.
