Summary: In this episode I address the troubling tactics of surveillance state regimes. I also address how some of these same tactics were used against the Trump team.    News Picks: An illustrative piece by Andy McCarthy on The NY Times efforts to drive the new narrative on the spying operation against Trump.    More evidence that John Brennan knows more than he’s letting on.    An older piece that debunks the idea that Christopher Steele was the “source” of the dossier information.    The leaker in the Michael Cohen case will likely be prosecuted.    The president called MS-13 “animals.” They are.   Is Google looking to vacuum up personal data?    Copyright CRTV.
