By Frank Figliuzzi, former FBI assistant director for counterintelligence and NBC News\/MSNBC analyst<\/strong><\/p>\nOn Monday, Attorney General William Barr, acting more like defense counsel for a cornered president than the nation\u2019s top law enforcement official,\u00a0ordered a U.S. Attorney review the FBI’s decision<\/a>\u00a0to open a counterintelligence investigation into alleged ties between Trump associates and Russia in 2016. This action, coupled with\u00a0Barr\u2019s previous reckless conduct<\/a>, unwittingly promotes the interests of America\u2019s enemies as Barr perpetuates dangerous conspiracy theories about secret Washington cabals and FBI corruption.<\/p>\nOften external forces are aided by both witting and unwitting parties inside our borders and even within our government.<\/p>\n
Counterintelligence professionals often refer to their mission as \u201cthe three D\u2019s:\u201d detect, deter and defeat the efforts of foreign intelligence services targeting the United States. Per\u00a0Executive Order 12333<\/a>, our government\u2019s lead counterintelligence agency is the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The counterintelligence program is the second most important priority for the FBI, just after preventing the next terror attack.\u00a0FBI agents assigned to this work<\/a> are hunters at heart. They seek and find those whose efforts would weaken our nation, make us more vulnerable to attack, undermine the rule of law and wreak havoc with our democracy.<\/p>\nOften external forces are aided by both witting and unwitting parties inside our borders and even within our government. Such insiders need not be recruited nor even capable of finding Russia or China on a map. Frequently these players can neither foresee nor comprehend the consequences of their actions until long after the damage to our democracy has been done. When an adversary is aided in its cause by a fortuitous insider who required no energy or resources to cajole or coerce, the enemy views such serendipity as a gift. When that insider happens to be the attorney general of the United States, that gift is priceless.<\/p>\n
As we all have learned, the FBI\u2019s Counterintelligence Division, acting on classified data, allied intelligence, human sources and conduct occurring in plain view,\u00a0opened a counterintelligence investigation to explore Russia\u2019s attempts<\/a>\u00a0to interfere with the 2016 presidential election. The Russian efforts were later detailed in over\u00a0two dozen federal grand jury indictments<\/a>\u00a0involving Russian intelligence officers and Russian nationals.<\/p>\nThe FBI inquiry also included connections between the Trump campaign and known or suspected Russian government affiliated individuals. Those connections are detailed in over\u00a0100 pages of special counsel Robert Mueller\u2019s report<\/a>. Mueller\u2019s inquiry was predicated by the FBI\u2019s initial Russia investigation. Now, President Donald Trump and Barr seek to undermine Mueller\u2019s findings by fueling doubt about the FBI\u2019s decision to open the initial Russian case that led to a special counsel appointment. Back at the Kremlin, the vodka is flowing.<\/p>\n\nTrump and Barr seek to undermine Mueller\u2019s findings by fueling doubt about the FBI\u2019s decision to open the initial Russian case. Back at the Kremlin, the vodka is flowing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Barr instructed\u00a0John Durham, a veteran and respected prosecutor<\/a>\u00a0and current U.S. Attorney for Connecticut, to examine the predication for the FBI\u2019s Russia case. Choosing to use a hand-picked direct subordinate instead of simply tapping the more independent Department of Justice inspector general is suspicious on its own. When added to Barr\u2019s other partisan conduct over the past few weeks, his decision is one more blow to a Justice Department and FBI that must function as independent, apolitical champions of the truth.<\/p>\nBarr has already etched his legacy as a politically motivated AG. He issued a\u00a0misleading summary of the special counsel\u2019s findings<\/a>, unilaterally\u00a0proclaimed there was \u201cno collusion\u201d<\/a>\u00a0between the campaign and Russia although Mueller limited his search to only criminal conspiracy and decided that Trump did not commit obstruction of justice despite\u00a0Mueller specifically stating that the president could not be exonerated<\/a>\u00a0and had committed\u00a010 acts that could constitute obstruction<\/a>. Barr also chose to refer to lawful investigation of\u00a0Russia\u2019s influence in our presidential campaign as \u201cspying,\u201d<\/a> knowing full well that the word implied illegal acts as alleged by his seeming client, President Donald Trump.<\/p>\nBarr occupies the cabinet position arguably most critical to preserving our unique form of government. More than any of his administration colleagues, the attorney general must be apolitical, independent and loyal only to the Constitution. The role is rightly described as \u201cthe people\u2019s lawyer\u201d because we count on the AG to uphold the rule of law so that the least among us may receive justice.<\/p>\n
But instead, our current attorney general would have us believe the myth that some kind of deep state resides within the corridors of our most trusted institutions, a\u00a0conspiracy theory the president\u2019s supporters<\/a>\u00a0have repeatedly echoed. Despite ongoing related investigations by a capable DOJ inspector general, Barr wants us to believe, as does his boss, that our system is broken and that the only fix lies outside the practices and policies that served our democracy for centuries.<\/p>\nWe don\u2019t know if Barr\u2019s decisions are malicious, self-serving or simply ignorant. But by perpetuating the president\u2019s falsehoods and eroding Americans\u2019 trust in our institutions, Barr has become the kind of threat capable of doing severe harm; he has become a threat from within.<\/p>\n
