Now we have a whole separate supplier of data for Able Danger who's verifying that same information.

They have maintained there is no information about Able Danger or the data mining work. They could not find anything. ... It is absolutely unbelievable to me that a commission would come out and say that this program just didn't exist.

Able Danger consisted of approximately 20 direct individuals working for Special Forces in Tampa, Florida. The total amount of people working for Able Danger was 20.

I would never jeopardize classified information to be brought out to the public. This information is all open source. There is no reason to worry about classification. It is simply an attempt by bureaucrats to cover their rear ends.

For the 9/11 commission to say that this did not exist is just absolutely outrageous. It's a total denial of the facts.

I will continue to push for a full accounting of the historical record so that we may preclude these types of failures from happening again,
