Whistleblowing on the FBI and the Clintons
While working at the FBI, Nate Cane uncovered evidence of the intelligence community neglecting to investigate alarming business dealings and refusing to pursue criminal charges against Hillary Clinton and the Clinton Foundation. Instead, they spread false narratives about Donald Trump’s alleged ties to Russia and Russian interference in the 2016 US presidential election. Nate Cane blew the whistle, but as expected for national security whistleblowers, his life was almost ruined – facing the risk of being prosecuted under the Espionage Act. In this episode, John Kiriakou talks to Nate Cane about his decision-making and when he realized things were starting to spiral.
