Leaks, Spies and Lies with Robert Booth -- State Department Counterintelligence
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 фев 2025
- Cuban spies who pass secrets via shopping cart in a grocery store, a Taiwanese honey trap in DC, a Russian bugging device inside the State Department, classified information popping up in the media-scenes from a spy movie?
No, these are just highlights from the most intriguing investigations conducted by retired State Department Special Agent Robert Booth and recounted in his new book State Department Counterintelligence: Leaks, Spies and Lies.
Booth reveals the inside story of Kendall and Gwendolyn Myers who spied for Cuba for nearly 30 years and Donald Keyser who lied about his personal relationship with a female Taiwanese intelligence officer with whom he shared State Department information while serving as Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of State. He’ll tell how Washington Post and Wall Street Journal articles concerning leaked State Department telegrams impacted diplomatic negotiations and how the Russian Intelligence Service, the SVR, installed a bug inside a conference room in the State Department. Booth personally managed or assisted in all these investigations, and he will offer guests insight into the courtroom proceedings for the Myers and Keyser prosecutions including background on court room machinations, prosecution tactics, and how the "plea bargains" were reached.

Way to go Coast Guard! Best counterintelligence in the USA - NOT pentetrated by the Commies!!
Very neat and interesting speaker. As a former State Corrections Officer in a southern State I found his story dealing with a State CO in another jurisdiction finding classified documents in a metal cabinet interesting and humorous. Surprised that the CO actually talked to the media and appeared on television. In my State, an officer would probably be punished for talking to the press. My former department has dedicated personnel who are authorized to speak to the media. Furthermore, at our academy, the instructor tells the cadets not to give statements to the press. The instructor will cite reasons such as confidentiality and media manipulation.
Absolutely fascinating!
"...and who do I run into in the street?! Amanda!"
My original brain inventing a totally new, original, and very funny joke: a man where!?!
"... Linda!"
My brain, desperately whirring: there's GOTTA be something, I can discern a pattern, I'm convinced, come on...
All these pre publication problems can be solved by a system utilizing AI scouring through public domain to establish and flag classified and unclassified information, probably in 3 categories like red, amber and green. To make it more secure a secondary human examination which will be much faster. Just a thought.
Booth is quite the character. Awesome entertainment while still being informative
This guy was more honest then I expected.
Too short. Would listen to him a lot longer. He was good
Thank you! Interesting and enjoyable.
Can anyone provide any directions on how to contact Robert David Booth?
Robert Booth's lecture is one of the Top 3 of all the Int'l Spy Museum's that are recorded; content, public speaking etc. . . .I look at the comments of the average American public; most, no doubt, ever served or could obtain a high level clearance. These speakers are patriots and of a pedigree the general public cannot fathom. If you have ever had job which involves you interacting with the American public; you know what I am speaking about ( crude, rude, uneducated, dishonorable, self interested and mostly, full of shit).
Which are you, not an American, or not a member of the general public?? I'm guessing the latter, as you tell me you're able to assay the greater calibre of the public servants such as this lecture's speaker, which the general American public cannot, you assert.
I would love to hear more about Kendall Myers. There's really not much information on the guy available.
It seems the intelligence people are simple minded....I have watched many of these and that's my impression.....
Your impression is meaningless and unimportant because you’re meaningless and unimportant. Intelligence personnel are infinitely more brilliant than a million of you combined could possibly be.
"It is one of history's ironies that Communism, advertised as a classless society, tended to breed a privileged class of feudal proportions." - Henry Kissinger
Just the way Henry likes it
In this talk he perfectly demostrarte through anecdotes the utter incompetence of our intelligence agencies despite the fact that they recruit from among the smartest people, mostly because of bureaucracy. I call this phenomenon "institutional stupidity".
Gross and blatant overgeneralization. Have you ever served? Have you ever applied for, and attained a security clearance; with an FBI and DoD investigation???!?
Right
They aren't stupid. They are infiltrated.
Please get rid of the glare on the screen.
Yes Sir

Regarding the attempted redactions, had Booth's notes/references in his book been sufficiently detailed as to his sources, then a whole lot of that discussion would have been unnecessary.
Let us compare his book sales versus your book sales.
