Ernest emphasizes the President's commitment to the "no man left behind" principle while avoiding comments that could influence the court-martial.

General Dempsey's claim that the military will protect the ".com" and ".gov" domains is dismissed as a "snow job." The focus on Edward Snowden's passport is seen as a distraction from the massive spending and expansion of the "Cyber Force."

While Bales' defense cited post-traumatic stress disorder and concussions, the military is moving forward with a capital case. The hosts question if the push for execution is a cover-up for broader systemic issues.

Simultaneously, the FBI has expanded powers to conduct "assessments" without warrants, and a Second Circuit appeals court ruling suggests domestic terror suspects can be held without Miranda warnings. The discussion links these developments to the influence of Cass Sunstein and legal shifts toward increased domestic surveillance.
