it was the democratic party that wanted to rein in the military and the c.i.a. it was the democratic party that fought corporate influence. remember when wall street and big corporations all supported the republicans? well, who is the liberal now and who's the conservative? who is the left? who is the right? these labels make less and less sense. and out of habit we still group ourselves around the empty husks of those old alignments and thread bare idollologies. now that habit is breaking down. that's why half the electorate no longer identifies with any political party, and 63% of americans want an independent to run for president. of course, the outer structures of the party still dominate the political landscapes, but they're hollowed out from within like a building full of termites. what new structures might emerge from the lines? what is politics going to look like when it's no longer us versus them? american democracy should be more than just picking between two candidates anointed by shadow institutions. big oil from the republicans, big tech funds the d

according to officials since 2015, the c.i.a. has spent tens of millions of dollars to transform ukraine'so powerful allies in the fight against moscow. the agency provided ukraine with advanced surveillance systems, trained recruits at ukrainian facilities as well as in the united states, built new headquarters for ukrainian military intelligence units, and shared intelligence data. part of this war was the murder of daria dugina in august last year, the article reveals new details of the preparation of the crime, the purpose which was originally dari's father, the philosopher alexander dugin. according to the publication, they managed to smuggle the bomb components for the terrorist attack across the border by hiding them in a cat cage in a cluttered car. the operation had a hand in well-trained sbu officers from elite groups formed, trained and equipped by the american intelligence agency, this is also a quote. the least visible item of luggage, the cat's cage , was part of an elaborate murderous plot. ukrainian operatives installed in a carrier for pets secret compartment, according to

since 2015, officials say, the c.i.a. has spent tens of millions of dollars to transform ukraine's soviet-eravided ukraine with advanced surveillance systems. trained recruits at ukrainian installations as well as in the united states, and built new headquarters for ukrainian military intelligence units. all this obviously helped the sbu track down its targets and carry out punitive operations . last august, in the moscow region , the car of daria dugina, daughter philosopher alexander dugin. the fsb established that ukrainian intelligence officer natalya vovk was sent to russia to carry out the terrorist attack, and she entered the country with her seemingly unsuspecting daughter. parts of the bomb, as the washington post writes, were hidden in a specially made secret compartment of a cage for transporting a cat; after the murder of dari , duginin and zelsky’s adviser, the polyak, stated that ukraine had absolutely nothing to do with this, because quote: we are not a criminal state like russia and not terrorist state, but in recent interviews in kiev, officials admitted that these denials we

joining us now is dan hoffman, former c.i.a. station chief.tor and good friend to the channel. the air strikes the u.s. conducted overnight to hit these iranian proxy groups in syria, what do you know about these locations and how important they are to iran? >> those are reportedly administered by the irgc, iran's revolutionary guard corps and we're waiting to lose what damage was done and whether any irgc personnel injured or killed. the u.s. is trying to deter iran's proxy militants from launching further attacks. i'm quite sure the u.s. intelligence community will be providing reflections on how iran viewed these strikes and whether the strikes will achieve their purpose. but frankly i doubt it. i think iran wants to carry on this indirect proxy war against the united states. >> aishah: that would be my follow up. there is a great sense of fear on capitol hill, definitely in washington, that this will get out of hand and turn into a regional war if iran chooses for its other proxies in the area and region to get involved. we heard jackie he

. >> dana: let's get more on this from a person in the c.i.a. with iran and a middle east.here do the weapons and money come from? what should israel and the u.s. do it? >> bill's graphics are as good as anything that would be put in front of the president. the ability to construct weapons is coming from iran. give it the best sets of matches and let arsonists do for a living. that's what we see here. >> dana: what do you think about the possibility of israelis deciding to go into gaza? they've told the people there to leave. they're trying to move south. egypt is saying we don't want to do that. but they have to go somewhere. idf will go in. urban warfare part of this when you have americans involved. >> the urban warfare will be extremely difficult. the idf is very capability and trained for this and observed this area for quite a few years. no military on earth has faced a target such as this with the series of self-imposed humanitarian restrictions. gaza is not only a very densely populated location, not only a location that's relatively narrow as bill put in the graphi

it is not as hard to rile them up about a person. >> renée diresta, a former c.i.a. fellow-- at least needs to be disempowered... >> michael shellenberger used me and he made me the face of this thing. and he took the fact that, you know, i had interned for the agency as an undergrad, which had never been a secret, and he somehow turned it into part of a vast cabal. you get turned into a character. >> jacoby: what's that been like? >> well... it leads to death threats, it leads to harassment, and... it is very, very hard for me to refute any of it, because in the environment that we live in, people who trust michael shellenberger are going to be disinclined to trust me. >> jacoby: the twitter files claim to kind of uncover this sort of coalition, right? >> yep. >> jacoby: between folks like yourself, the academic portion of this... >> mm-hmm. >> jacoby: ...government, and big tech, and that essentially this all adds up to a censorship industrial complex. so, what, on the face of it, what are we supposed to make of that claim? >> well, i mean, on the face of it, there's no actual evide

and c.i.a. way that there's been a certain element of our government that works independently of the elected official come -- officialdom in congress. and there are laws and morals. this is documented. we now know that there is a fourth estate. and we have to all ask ourselves how is this all happening? that's a whole separate issue. the wars going on. we have to ask ourselves who is directing this? who benefits from this? and go back to the speech by dwight eisenhower, his famous farewell speech of the industrial military and congressional industrial complex. that raises the question of the speaker of the house. here we have a display of just massive dysfunction. i think the democrats are just as much to blame because they'll just vote on party lines and keep embarrassing the republicans who deserve, frankly, the embarrassment they are suffering. i wonder if it wouldn't be a prudent idea to find an independent individual, outside the house, to come in and to be able to settle down everybody and
