it's an elite group of profilers based at quantico where the fbi academy and laboratory is. one of the things that's sort of wrong about the show, understandably for dramatic reasons, is that very rarely do those behavioral analysis officials or sort of profilers end up actually deploying to the scene of an evolving crime. they're often called in remotely via conference calls or sort of examine cases over a long period of time. they're not often on the front lines of solving a breaking, evolving crime in the way that they are for "criminal minds." >> host: just basic statistics, how many fbi personnel are there? >> guest: the total staff is about 34,000 of which about 14,000 of those are fbi agents, the special agents that we sort of think of as making up the bulk of the fbi. and what's interesting as i was talking about earlier in terms of the fbi's growth after 9/11, that's actually only about 3,000 more agents than there were on 9/11. and that much of that, that's a much smaller percentage of growth than what you have seen in a lot of the other agencies that have been sor

question why they didn't put daniel ellsberg on camera for an interview yes he appears in a protest at quantico but they don't actually get his point of view which i think is very you know it's important i mean he was the one who leaked the pentagon papers in and he has the most credibility in talking about whistleblowers and how governments will come after you and you know in his case the trial that he faced the charges they fell through the government was not able to make a case and and he's made a lot of arguments that the same thing could happen with bradley manning and we're going to get his take on this tomorrow coming up on our show kevin i want to thank you very much for joining us tonight thank you. coming up next the toughest sheriff in america it's a nice tool time later for having criminals inside some departments and then defending the fourth amendment in the u.s. some lawmakers are being called arranged for actually advocating for rights guaranteed to you in the constitution that vote for a reason joins me to discuss the issue in just a minute. we . will. we will be there.

quantico, good morning, you are 67 degrees. leonardtown 66. annapolis 66 degrees. to the north and west, frederick, a few hours ago, back in the 50s. now 63 degrees. and 64 in martinsberg. clouds moving through, but that's about it at this point. we'll see the showers and thunderstorms late today. really he think this evening and during the overnight hours. just clouds to start your morning. and again it is that kind of filtered sunshine we had around here yesterday. high, thin cloudiness associated with our frontal system which is trying to charge in here from the north and west but getting temporarily hung up. it will eventually get in here late today and tonight as it does so it will encounter pretty warm and humid air and that will likely spark off showers and thunderstorms around here. so again the frontal system starts moving through late this afternoon and tonight. best chance of thunderstorm activity will be out to the west and then during the overnight hours it's possible that even here in the district points east and south we could hear a rumble of thunde

within the legal realm lots of times before we heard it with their treatment bradley manning at quantico to the only that's all according to the military plan of military rules don't we just want to quell those very words by at least telling the u.n. giving them their investigation let me say something to shock your viewers we do things that the american government that are illegal and international law all the time no way i don't i don't it's a harsh fact but that's the truth and the truth is we violated the sovereignty of another country so i don't care how many times why when i spoke to says we do this legitimately we did what we thought was in our best interest as a country and violated their sovereignty just to give us one of those situations accept that fact and get over it now the question becomes why did we half divide. your soccer team that goes back to your original part of your question about what about the pakistanis the pakistanis have not been a good partner and this is what i think most of i spent part of the day on capitol hill this morning talking to members asking me my

when i came to work it was 53. 48 now in quantico. winchester 45. and winds have been gusting.e've been telling you that. latest wind gusts in washington 25 miles per hour. so that's part of the story this morning. and it's going to be at the very least breezy through the day today as the front comes through and those breezes will shift out of the northwest and they will bring in -- or they have shifted and they're bringing in those cooler temperatures. so the forecast for today looks like this: morning showers, becoming, believe it or not, partly sunny and still breezy later on. high about 60 degrees. yesterday we were in the 80s. winds gusting up to 25 miles per hour as we've seen. for tonight, a colder night. in town, lows in the mid and upper 40s. outside of town, out to the north and west, i think lows in the 30s. there is actually a freeze warning or freeze watch and some frost advisories in effect well out to the west where the mountains are for overnight tonight. and so it will be really cold out there. partly cloudy skies. five-day forecast, tomorrow not a bad day. sun

the fbi sent the letters to quantico for testing. law enforcement sources said the white powder is corn starch and the letters were mailed from somewhere in texas. school administrators discovered the letters yesterday morning. as a precaution, some schools were evacuated or went on lockdown. mail was stopped and checked for more letters. police continue caution. sources say all of the letters referenced al-qaeda but did not make any specific threats. >> just because we have no substances so far, the concern would be that that would change and that the -- that our protocol would be lax because of the fact that we haven't had something serious yet. we don't assume that. we're going to take every one of them seriously. >> i think that's a dastardly act. this alarms people unnecessarily and something that shouldn't have been done. >> reporter: the fbi said the suspicious letters are linked to similar ones sent across the country that also turned out to be harmless. the fbi said all of the letters appear to come from the same sender. and

quantico, 65. fredericksburg, 64. cambridge, maryland, it is 59 degrees at this hour. a cool to mild start to the day. the air is a little muggy. this is what we're looking at during the course of the day today. there is your frontal boundary out to our west right now. washington, here we have some clouds. it is a mix of clouds and sun this morning but this frontal boundary gets closer. by 8:00 p.m. this evening, it could bring some strong thunderstorms to portions of the western parts of the viewing area. during the nighttime hours, we are seeing rain. i think those winds will be blowing a little bit. they will shift to out of the northwest eventually. with that have lange aring rain into the day tomorrow, even off to the east into the afternoon. all of that begins to clear out. with get clearing going on by the latter part of the day maybe just in time to see the sun go down. partly sunny skies, breezy, warm, look for a high of 84 degrees. tonight being cooler with the passage of that front. showers and thunderstorms developing across the area. cooler overnight. the
