Suddenly, the term “spying” was declared as categorically exclusive of any intelligence surveillance. He explained that he did not just get the conclusions of Robert Mueller but that the basic findings had been disclosed weeks earlier. It did not matter that Rosenstein described the questioning of the intentions of Barr or the necessity for redactions as “completely bizarre” and that, in his view, Barr has been “as forthcoming as he can.” The narrative has continued unabated, and billionaire Tom Steyer has even funded a national commercial repeating how ridiculous it is that Barr could have determined the conclusions of the special counsel report in just two days. Senator Jeanne Shaheen asked why the attorney general was evidently looking into the basis for the secret investigation into the 2016 campaign. Barr explained that he was concerned about any kind of spying, foreign or domestic, on our political process. Indeed, Democrats and the media have used the terms interchangeably, until another language change was spontaneously declared this week. “Wiretapping” was previously often used as a generality for surveillance. The media discussed whether Trump was guilty of collusion, despite there being no such crime in the federal code. Speech codes are now common and the meaning of terms is based on how language is received rather than intended. In the same way, it does not matter that what Barr meant was reasonable or that he immediately clarified “wiretapping” as “improper surveillance.” It was important to portray as an absurdity any suggestion of the Obama administration spying on a Republican campaign, even though two key officials were targeted during the campaign.

Manning – who is about to make her first trip to Australia in September on a speaking tour – will come to our shores with warnings about the rise of white nationalism in the United States, the police state and what citizens should do to fight back. “I’ve made a couple of errors since I’ve been out of prison that I’ve had to learn from because I’m navigating life again.” Manning says her stint in prison had “a lot of long-term effects” on her but explains only elliptically because she says she does not fully understand them. Manning insists that her Senate run is not on the list of errors but she talks extensively about cures for the world’s ills outside of electoral politics. If people in the United States or Australia are afraid of the extensive powers of police and national security agencies, Manning says they can “demand more – we don’t have to be afraid”. “The only political decisions we make in our lives are not just voting or signing a petition or going out to a protest – every single thing that we do, in essence, can be a political decision,” she says. “The more concerning thing for me is the fact that a single person, a single office has the power to do these things, and this has been allowed to happen. “Because of that we have to reconsider how we structure our political system – I often ask the question, ‘Why do we even have a president?’” Manning warns the trend to a police state is not only happening in the US. Manning also includes Australia in her critique of media complicity in the growing power of police and the security apparatus. “There’s been this mainstream media portrayal of things - I’ve really moved on, I’m actually much more focused on what’s happening in the US right now. “I can’t go back and change and make any decisions differently, so I don’t do that.
