The Agency
Treachery

But then what happened was we had a source, actually, that was being run while I was in Moscow.

The Agency
Treachery

This is prologue, is it?

The Agency
Treachery

Yeah, this is prologue, yeah, 100%.

The Agency
Treachery

We knew there was a sensitive case called Prologue.

The Agency
Treachery

None of us were given any information on it because that was at the top because we were all junior officers, right?

The Agency
Treachery

But a couple of times we were asked to go do a dead drop and we're not telling you what it's for and just go do it.

The Agency
Treachery

And one of those, as my understanding from talking to my then boss later, is one of those was actually for Prologue.

The Agency
Treachery

Whether he gave up Gordievsky?

The Agency
Treachery

I believe we thought he did.

The Agency
Treachery

I was head of counterintelligence for CIA at the time when we had some good information coming in that was telling us that the Russians were trying to influence the election in Trump's favour.

The Agency
Treachery

And what we did find was multiple data points, not just on one source, but multiple data points that the Russians were indeed trying to influence the elections in Trump's favor.

The Agency
Treachery

And that's what we basically put out in our report.

The Agency
Treachery

Trump said at the time, okay, that sounds fine.

The Agency
Treachery

that Trump is going to go after the people that did the Russian influence paper.

The Agency
Treachery

You know, in 2019, I had to do the Barr-Durham thing and I had a lawyer because it might lead to, you know, criminal charges and that didn't work out.

The Agency
Treachery

And I just go on my way and I go to Israel and, you know, I'm, you know, doing fine and... Susan Miller continues to have very senior roles in CIA.

The Agency
Treachery

And I headed up our China Mission Centre and all the rest of this stuff.

The Agency
Treachery

I have retired from CIA, but I still had my security clearance because you're allowed to carry it over for like up to four years if you get it re-upped.

The Agency
Treachery

Like you get the polygraph again and they go and talk to neighbors again and, you know, make sure that you aren't doing cocaine at night or something like that.
