When recently retired DHS frontline officer and intelligence expert Philip Haney bravely tried to say something about the people and organizations that threatened the nation, his intelligence information was eliminated, and he was investigated by the very agency assigned to protect the country

Michele Bachmann, former Republican member of the US House of Representatives, MN-6 (2007 to 2015)

Louis Gohmert, Republican member of the US House of Representatives, TX-1 (2005 to present)

William Ferri, Assistant Director, Passenger Operations (2010 to 2014), Department of Homeland Security; Bureau of Customs & Border Protection (CBP), Port of New York / New Jersey

Joseph Schmitz, former Inspector General, Department of Defense; foreign policy advisor, Donald J. Trump presidential campaign

DHS does appear to know what they’re doing.

They’re just prevented from acting upon what they discover and that directive is coming from the top, at the cost of many American lives.

UPDATE

Philip Haney, a former Homeland Security Department official during the Obama administration who blew the whistle on his own agency, was found dead Friday with a gunshot wound about 40 miles east of Sacramento, California.

“Upon their arrival, they located and identified 66-year-old Philip Haney, who was deceased and appeared to have suffered a single, self-inflicted gunshot wound. A firearm was located next to Haney and his vehicle. This investigation is active and ongoing. No further details will be released at this time,” the sheriff’s office said in a statement.

Mr. Haney was reportedly about to get married and possibly return to DHS. Does this sound like like a person who’d put a gun to his chest and shoot himself?
