1. Here's the problem.. You cannot currently investigate the Intelligence Community (Church 2.0) in the same way as history because the Senate (SSCI) is working in coordination with THAT exact corrupt intel system.
The *check* in the system is facilitating the intel corruption.

2. I can give you examples, actual empirical examples, of how this is currently constructed.
The Senate Intel Committee (SSCI) is working hand in glove with the agencies they are supposed to oversee.
The executive branch knows this, and is part of the issue.

3. That's why the DOJ has recently announced they will not permit any investigation of members of the intel committee for leaks (ie. compromises in national security).

4. Garland and Monaco are not stupid. They know Adam Schiff (HPSCI) and Mark Warner (SSCI) are facilitating the corruption that exists within the intel agencies. Ergo "leak hunters" in the Biden administration are forbidden from exposing the corrupt legislative coordination.
5. This is what I was talking about when I wrote the attached thread, long before Garland made that announcement.

6. Congressional oversight has been compromised. The intel system is self-aware and they have structured the current system (through the legislative branch) to protect themselves. They are working together. 
7. This is why the proposal (Church Committee) by @DarrenJBeattie unfortunately cannot work.
The SSCI and HPSCI are part of the intel corruption. Put another way, the oversight "gang of eight", is in on it.

8. The system they created is now self-protecting, self-aware and every member is dependent on it.
An example is the "advice and consent" process within the Senate confirmation process for Intel leaders.

9. The SSCI will not allow any (non corrupt) intel nominee who might disrupt the controlled system.
This is why Trump nominees to ODNI (example) were blocked by the SSCI *even though* Republicans held the chair. Preservation of a corrupt system is not a party specific issue.

10. This is also why the SSCI facilitated the installation of Michael Attkinson as Intelligence Community Inspector General (ICIG).
Attkinson was the DOJ-NSD chief legal counsel to John Carlin and later Mary McCord at the center of the Carter Page FISA issues.

11. Atkinson had a vested interest in keeping the corrupt system protected (including the FISA Court aspect).
Atkinson confirmed by SSCI and then immediately went to work to facilitate changing IC rules for whistleblower complaints, that facilitated the first impeachment effort

12. By that time Mary McCord [a Lawfare ally] had left the DOJ and assumed a position as the lead lawyer on Jerry Nadler's judiciary committee where the articles of impeachment were created.
13. I share that example as evidence of how the corruption between multiple agencies in the intel establishment are coordinated.
The legislative branch, executive branch & judicial branch all working at the behest of the larger control forces with the Intelligence Community

14. SIDE NOTE. Notice where Mary McCord is now in 2021.
She is still working inside the system to keep the intelligence corruption activity monitored, hidden and protected.

15. This is how the system protects itself.
There is no possibility for a Church Committee approach to work because the House (HPSCI) and Senate (SSCI) are part of the intelligence corruption. This was done (over years) by design.

16. I don't know the solution because we are not at the point where solutions can even be debated.
THE ISSUE? The American people don't know what the problem is, yet.
EX: @TuckerCarlson and @DarrenJBeattie clinging to a false premise, holding out hope for oversight to fix it

17. The oversight is part of the problem. They are participating; actively participating.
The senate is not going to investigate or expose intelligence corruption that they are a part of.

20. I have been desperately trying to get people to see this dynamic for years. But the problem is so BIG, large by design, that people cannot comprehend it.

22. ... Addendum, I am not going to quit trying.
