When Lara Logan asked Dr. Timothy V. Shindelar, Colonel USMC (Ret.) and Federal Whistleblower, how this kind of subversion happens, he said, “This is what the rear guard does.”
The rear guard, he says, is the loyal network inside federal agencies that controls what the boss sees and what never reaches their desk. If leaders are not surrounded by people who share their vision, they are quietly undermined.
He explains how the president signs a directive to stop corruption, the attorney general vows to enforce it, yet an assistant US attorney tells investigators not to look at DOJ corruption. Illegal. Coordinated. Not acting alone.
Dr. Shindelar says it comes from CIGIE, the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency. CIGIE oversees all Inspector Generals and protects its own. The system meant to ensure integrity has become the command center that buries investigations and shields misconduct.
