I’m Behind the Trump-Russia Dossier. We Gave the FBI More Than People Know
I haven't been back to the U.S. since 2016. But I'll be there to promote my new book. There's no sensible reason I shouldn't enter the U.S. My ESTA, a U.S. entry visa, was approved.
But that would change were Trump to be re-elected. I think it would be unwise for me to go back to America for all sorts of reasons. At the moment, though, it's perfectly okay, and I'm looking forward to it.
I have no plans to retire from all this, though my wife would like me to. The problem is, this issue of Russian interference isn't going away. And not just Russia. It's China too.
It's incumbent on people like me and my associates to stand up and be counted at this time for the good of future generations, and our own society and democracy.
I'd much rather that we were back in the 1990s when we all had a much greater peace of mind about the world. But it's in a very dangerous place at the moment.
Bad, rushed analysis, and rushed, biased reporting is feeding into the incendiary atmosphere. We have to be absolutely clear as experts and professionals about what the threat is and how it is best countered.
If we leave the battlefield, as it were, others who are less competent and less well-motivated will take our place. And that will not be a good thing.
