There's always a few bad apples; even the much-vaunted F.B.I. has a few, or maybe more than a few. Recently, a member of former Director J. Edgar Hoover's modern crime stopping organization was convicted in court of passing State secrets to ------Russyan agents for----$$$$$$. How crass. What about the man's character: did he mask his true self for all these years? He's 55 years old, married. We know he rose through the organization and his last position was head of counterintelligence in the New York District where spies live and work like the rest of us. NYC is the site of the United Nations, the organization that hems and haws over Israel and Palestinians. Naturally, many of those attending this session or that are foreign agents, ie. spies.
These spies don't ride the subway to work. They're too smart: they know there's no point in rubbing shoulders with work-a-day schlubs trying to make a buck on Wall St.,etc. They hang out with Mayor Eric Adam's gang of "reformers" and NGO drones asking for money. And, since 2 Southern governors are shipping immigrants to this northern 'asylum' city, lots of folks stand out with their hands out asking for anything and everything.
This senior F.B.I. manager was no doubt oblivious to the asylum seekers situation. He was more concerned with Russya and the Kremlin's operatives seeking intelligence. The largest country in the world has been at the spy game longer than just about everybody, save the Pope and the Vatican City. Our home grown spy was the a senior agent charged with-------counterintelligence in the New York District. Hmmmm. Who selected him? And who turned him? That spy deserves a raise and probably a medal- Hero of the State. Was it the money? Probably.
He will spend a few years(4) in the federal pen somewhere reading second hand news, catching up on Ohtani's exploits, and trying to figure out if the wife will split and take up with another agent or maybe an NFL player or coach.
Occasionally he will look in the mirror and ask himself out loud: "What was I thinking?" Such is the fate of those who engage in 'self' destruction. All his former friends will absorb the lesson and move on with their little lives, hoping to avoid anything that resembles the fate of their former friend-The Spy.
Mr. Charles McGonigal was convicted of aiding a Russyan oligarch who aided the Rus in his contests with another oligarch. One could say this is low level activity that doesn't involve state secrets like those of recently deceased master spy Robert Hanssan, However, McGonigal used his position to circumvent the law and as a result, he'll be serving a 4 year sentence. Have a happy "rest of your life, criminal".
