1. In talking with your son Duncan MacWilliams on Thanksgiving, did he raise any other potentially controversial topics?
Answer: He told us that he had been required to take a drug test as part of his interview for his current job, and further, that he was relieved he was not a user of recreational marijuana, as that would have excluded him from the position.
2. Did you make any comment about this?
Answer: I believe I said that I was surprised about his comments, given California laws, and he responded by saying his company's headquarters are in Texas.
3. But you feel this conversation was staged by Duncan's FBI handler with the intent of saying that you approved of recreational drugs.
Answer: I do think it was staged by his FBI handler with that intent -- or worse. Duncan knows perfectly well that we heartily disapprove of recreational drugs. So, it's terribly disappointing that he would participate in any plan attempting to discredit us in this way.
4. Were there any other unusual conversations that occurred?
Answer: Duncan referenced the "far left" quite a few times, which I have never heart him do before. And I questioned him by saying that I didn't know anyone who belonged to the "far left."
5, How did he answer?
Answer: He said that he had some "far left" friends in San Francisco, and further, that he felt that anyone who was "trans" could be counted on to be "far left." This comment sounded painfully biased to me, but I did not immediately respond to it. He did acknowledge that he had never encountered the "far left" in Portola Valley or Los Altos Hills, where we used to reside.
6. But you feel this conversation was staged by Duncan's FBI handler as well.
Answer: I do. The FBI attempts to mischaracterize "targets of interest" as Communists. When I first heard about this, I thought it was some 1950's throwback joke. But when you read about the history of the the FBI, you come to realize that the agency played the central role in the McCarthy blacklisting of Americans after World War II. McCarthy himself was just a pawn compared to the actions of the FBI in ruining the lives of those it targeted for harassment and harm.
And, although America moved on from the McCarthy era, the FBI really didn't.
Certain aspects of the agency are almost frozen in time.
FBI agents are still accusing politically moderate, law-abiding American citizens of being "Communists" as justification for including them on "target of interest" lists.
7. Are you and your husband Communists or have you ever had any association with the Communist Party whatsoever?
Answer: Absolutely not. My husband is a Silicon Valley entrepreneur. He doesn't draw his paycheck from the government, as FBI agents do. He is participating in capitalism as it is being expressed in entrepreneurship within the United States.
8. Your stalker has told you that some of your husband's colleagues have been coerced into lying about him for pay for the FBI.
Answer: I have viewed numerous Pins stating "Your co-workers are not your friends, and you should not have friendly conversations with them. They may be serving interests you know nothing about." Here's one example:
9. What is your perspective on this commentary?
Answer: My perspective is that the FBI appears to be corrupting anyone it can get its hands on. The agency seems to be so desperate not to be exposed for engaging in knowingly false accusations against the law-abiding American public that it appears to be pressuring my husband's colleagues into lying about the best man I know.
10. You sound upset.
Answer: We should all be upset about an FBI that has begun to mischaracterize moderate Democrats as "Communists," that has decided to call an entrepreneur who supports President Biden a "spy," that renders casual conversations somehow "unsafe" due to its lies about their content, that has severely damaged the trust within a law-abiding American family by forcing a son to prevaricate about his law-abiding parents, one of whom stands as an FBI whistleblower.
11. Small talk has ceased to be small talk in the United States the FBI is creating. Instead it has become a risk of false denunciation.
Answer: And this is a Russian tactic today, a tool utilized by the Stasi in East Germany for decades, and certainly one that we saw manifested by the Nazi's during World War II.
12. It's a method of totalitarian regimes, in other words.
Answer: Yes.
13. Is your son's FBI handler responsible to your family for the alienation of affection of your son? Is Mary Grinnell's FBI handler responsible for dictating lies on her part that correspond to Duncan's?
Answer: A court process will need to assess this, but I believe there is whole and separate liability on the part of FBI personnel who are forcing family members, friends, and colleagues to lie about one another.
14. How do you regain trust within your family when your son is being controlled by an agency that seems to have committed crimes with the intent of harming you?
Answer: Our son Duncan needs to acknowledge the full truth to investigators, not a partial one. The same holds for Mary Grinnell. Again, there is no negotiation with the truth. It stands for itself, and it demands to be expressed in its entirety.
After that, the full truth needs to be acknowledged in the context of our family.
15. Your son and Mary Grinnell have signed secrecy agreements, however.
Answer: On false pretenses. My husband and I were never "suspicious" in any of our actions. We are loyal, law-abiding American citizens of high integrity and ethics. Duncan and Mary know that perfectly well.
16. Can your family recover from the harms the FBI has wrought through your own son? Your own brother? Your own uncle? Your own aunt?
Answer: I don't know. But I think it is incumbent upon us to try, albeit at the appropriate time.
17. When is the appropriate time?
Answer: As soon as the truth can be publicly and openly spoken.
18. 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.
