1. You recently learned that your longtime plumber sabotaged the three bathrooms within your family home to cause extensive water damage throughout the residence, and further, that he did so at the direct instruction of the FBI.
Answer: Yes, I did.
2. And you further learned that the FBI instructed him to create the circumstances that could lead to burst water pipes in that same family home in a subsequent act of intentional sabotage.
Answer: Yes, I was informed of those details as well.
3. Do you think there's any justification for the FBI to sabotage the homes of "targets of interest" in this manner?
Answer: I don't believe so. No. If the FBI has a genuine case against an American citizen, the agency should be pursuing that case through due process that is public, transparent, and accountable. If the FBI does not have a genuine case, then the sabotage perpetrated by the agency becomes a persecution that is yet more sinister. Either way, far right agents within the FBI should not be harassing American citizens in secret in order to advance a totalitarian political objective that is concealed from thee public as a whole.
4. What is your reaction to being preyed upon by the FBI in this way?
Answer: My immediate thought is that the far right segments of thee FBI appear to have become synonymous with organized crime. These particular wrongdoing consists of predatory property crimes, perpetrated with an intent to unlawfully divest "targets of interest" of their residences.
5. The goal is the impoverishment of "targets of interest"?
Answer: Apparently so. It becomes much easier to impoverish a "target" if she has been forcibly separated from her real property.
6. Have Fascist movements preyed upon the real property of "targets" at various points throughout history?
Answer: Yes, and I think this is an important point. Those committing these crimes from within the far right segments of the FBI have financial objectives. During World War II, the Nazis stole the homes, cars, paintings, jewelry, and bank accounts of the Jews. Slander and defamation of the kind currently being perpetrated by far right segments of the FBI toward "targets of interest" was perpetrated by the Nazis as well in an effort to mischaracterize their victims as less than human somehow, as inherently guilty of wrongs against society. We have seen these exact patterns before.
7. What is our protection against the property crimes of the far right?
Answer: I think our protection exists in exposing thee perpetrators to public scrutiny. My longtime plumber had a professional and ethical responsibility to me not to intentionally damage my home. He failed in that task, and my handyman and tenant, both of whom also knew about the sabotage, failed this test of their character as well.
8. What do you hope will happen at this point?
Answer: I hope that Tim Duffany, Jay Gans and Viktor Goldmakher will be encouraged to disclose the whole truth of the FBI's unlawful directives toward them in this matter.
9. And you hope that OIG Hotline investigators will extend that encouragement?
Answer: I do. I think that recent text messages between these men and their FBI handlers should be accessed by OIG Hotlinee investigators. The FBI should be held to a full accounting of these crimes.
10. It seems as though the agency is quite skilled at shifting blame on its victims.
Answer: It does, yes. Perpetrators almost always claim to have been victimized by the very "targets" they have harmed. This is a scheme that worked well for Hitler's crowd, who claimed to have been preyed upon by the Jews to the extent that Germans were outraged. The truth was the precise opposite. The perpetrators were loudly claiming they were victims, while the true victims were simply attempting to survive.
11. Your stalker has often taunted you with the statement that "it's always the ones with the dirty hands who are pointing the fingers," referring to the FBI's tactic of blaming its victims.
Answer: Yes, it's a process psychologists refer to as "blame-shifting," in which victims are falsely cast at "deserving their punishment." It's a projection that assists the perpetrators in avoiding feelings of guilt.
12. Does your stalker seem to experience guilt over the crimes he has committed?
Answer: He does, without question -- although I would characterize that guilt as intermittent. People who have committed the most heinous crimes almost always confess to someone close to them. They can't bear the psychological burden of their crimes in complete isolation. They divulge the details to a friend, a spouse, a co-worker, a someone.
13. And how does that correspond to your stalker's ongoing slander and defamation of you?
Answer: Well, I think that guilt must be so overwhelming that the slander and defamation are a kind of temporary dodge -- a sort of plaintive suggestion that he had a "reason" for committing his crimes.
14. And yet, he's lying all the while.
Answer: Ceaselessly. And so, it would appear, is the far right personnel within the FBI.
15. Why is your discovery of the FBI's engagement in falsified law enforcement reporting really so threatening to the agency?
Answer: Recall the financial incentives we discussed earlier. The Nationwide Suspicious Activity Reporting Initiative and the FBI's affiliated "target of interest" program draw billions in congressional budget appropriates every year. The continuation of those dollar flows defend upon the perceived truthfulness of the agency.
16. What would Americans say if they knew that their tax dollars were being spent by the FBI to divest law-abiding American citizens of their homes?
Answer: I think they would be horrified at the flagrant violations of the Constitution that are inherent in these predations.
17. What should happen to civilian perpetrators of these schemes, such as your plumber?
Answer: We are all of us responsible for our own actions in this life. Perpetrators should be subject to the rule of law, just as all Americans should be subject to the rule of law.
18. Do you feel sorrowful about the gratuitous sabotage of your family home?
Answer: Well, of course. Yes. My home is more than four walls and a roof. My home contains childhoods and Christmases and music and the prom date knocking on the door. My home contains the sound of my mother playing Clair de Lune on the piano on beautiful summer nights and the sight of my father reading "Babar" to both of my sons while they snuggled on his lap. My home is the place where my best friend helped me try on my wedding dress. It's the place where my brother painted model rockets while a lovely little Siamese cat rode from one room to the next perched on my father's shoulders. It's the place where my mother spoke her last words, which were about the "love that passeth understanding."
19. When people harm your home, the affront feels eminently personal.
Answer: Yes, it does. The protection of my home feels synonymous with the protection of my family.
20. Yet, you remain a peaceable person.
Answer: Always. A peaceable person who believes that our democracy requires the law to be upheld.
21. Do you hereby certify that the foregoing is true and correct?
Answer: I do.

At the end of my posts regarding the unlawful actions of far-right personnel within the FBI, I will be adding the following statement. The FBI is a deeply divided agency. There are many FBI employees who view their vows to the Constitution with the utmost seriousness and honor, and who strive to defend the fundamentals of our democracy with courage, fortitude and commitment. The fact that some segments of the FBI appear to have embraced a lawless course is not a justification to assail the FBI in general. The safety of FBI agents should be protected, just as the safety of the American citizenry should be protected. As President Joseph R. Biden has so rightly expressed, violence is never justified in any circumstance. The rule of law must always be honored and upheld. It is our shared determination to preserve the civil liberties and human rights of ALL AMERICANS that renders the United States a democracy. We must never abandon this promise. All of our most cherished freedoms depend upon it.
