as things came up, we would try to act on that. behind the scenes, they apply pressure the department of state, shared information on carl lees, shipment routes with the governments of other nations. so they could take is containers out of circulation when the ship discharged its cargo. sometimes, you know, something would come out of the other end of that process that you wouldn't, you know, put into play and watch develop. and sometimes you weren't able either cuz we didn't know enough or the intelligence behind it was so sensitive that we couldn't risk compromising that. you had to sort of sit back and let that one go. and so within a few years, carl lee became the trusted supplier to the iranian weapons industry. the israel's, by agencies also stumbled upon carl lee at the turn of the millennium. they feared the business men from china could increase the range of their arch enemies missiles. with dramatic consequences for israel it was more than 20 years ago when v you renew is k for spine to north korea, asking for me sites 2 by is in the middle school and it will very um, open towards th

very frankly the erosion of state department authorities especially after 911. they need to rethink as administration of executive branch how do you integrate your efforts? finally how to integrate the efforts between congress and the administration? that is hard work because it is legislation. legislation is sometimes difficult to get through. the final other points and i think this can be done but still requires legislation. all of these trouble spots we are talking about our trouble in their own ways. you've got to be close to the ground to have the empathy and the deep analysis to get back to washington state what is the central problem here? but so much of what goes out to our nbcc teams is the stove pipe extreme line end up with the ambassadors who don't have a lot of flexibility in order to have a comprehensive team approach that would be the final points. ways to delegate more apt to this country teams. she looked at the recommendations. >> some easier than others not more important. the easiest one i think in is not that easy is transparency. the u.s. go

. >> are you familiar with the official verified russian language account of the united states, department of state that was taken down at your agency's request? >> it doesn't ring a bell as i sit here right now. >> well, now you have something to take back and look at. >> okay. >> because, in fact, in this bundle that sbu constantly was submitting to various agencies was, in fact, a russian language statement of government. >> literally, you took down the free speech of the department of state. >> i'm not sure we're talking about the same thing, but i would endeavor to provide more context at least as to sbu. >> yes. >> so i believe what you may be referring to, but i'm not sure we're talking about the same thing is that when russia invaded ukraine, the security service of ukraine and sbu which is a longstanding good partner of the fbi asked us for help on a whole range of things and one of those things was to contact u.s. companies on their behalf because the russians, the invasion had cut off the ukrainians' communications. so we did pass through information from the sbu to social media

principle, nonetheless, that was the view of the office of legal counsel and the justice department during the trump years. the president of the united statesould not be indicted. my republican colleagues seem to believe that a former president similarly cannot be indicted. that would effectively make a president above the law, beyond the reach of the law. and in my view they were probably the one thing the founders would find more politically precarious and dangerous to our constitution than the indictment of a president or former president and that is the failure to indict a president or former president when they have engaged in criminal conduct. the justice department, i believe, as representative lofgren, my fellow member of the january 6 committee, asserted took a very long time to begin the investigation of donald trump and his involvement in january 6. i believe it began with urgency when it came to the foot soldiers who broke into the capitol and assaulted police officers that day. at least what i can tell from the public record the activities of the president himself, some of which were a matter of very much a public record, such
