The material for this program literally landed on my doorstep with a personal challenge - would TUC radio and you who have listened over time be open to hearing arguments that there is no evidence that Russia interfered in the 2016 elections? Given the speaker, former CIA analyst Ray McGovern, who I met and recorded before, beginning with the opposition to the war on Iraq; and given the expertise of the group of colleagues around him, the Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity, VIPS; and given that this group expressed their doubts about Russian interference already in December of 2016; and given that no major TV or print media have given them a voice - I picked up the challenge and am giving Ray McGovern and his colleagues this space and time and hope that you might find his arguments and evidence as intriguing as I did. Ray McGovern served as a CIA analyst for 27 years, from the administration of John F. Kennedy to that of George H. W. Bush. His duties included chairing National Intelligence Estimates and preparing the Presidentâs Daily Brief to Ronald Reaganâs security advisers from 1981 to 1985. In January 2003, McGovern co-created Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS) to expose how intelligence was being falsified to âjustifyâ war on Iraq. VIPS remains active to this day. McGovern was recorded on August 4, 2018 at the Common Good Cafe in Seattle, WA. Thanks to KODX-LP FM radio for the recording.
