After U.S. and Afghan forces drove the Taliban and al-Qaeda out of Kabul, the fight shifted to the mountains of Tora Bora, where Osama bin Laden and his forces were hiding.
Lara Logan tells former CIA officer Gary Berntsen how she later retraced the route taken by al-Qaeda fighters from Tora Bora toward the Pakistani border, speaking with people in the villages and markets where the foreign fighters exchanged money, slept and made deals along the way.
What she found only deepened a question that followed the war for years: Why weren’t U.S. troops positioned to block the escape routes into Pakistan?
In Episode 98 of Going Rogue with Lara Logan, Lara and Gary examine the decisions surrounding Tora Bora, Pakistan’s complicated relationship with the United States and how militant safe havens across the border would haunt the war in Afghanistan for years to come.

THE FIRST TEAMS INTO AFGHANISTAN
When Gary Berntsen led CIA teams into Afghanistan after 9/11, there was no combat search and rescue waiting to come get them if something went wrong.
There was no one coming to save them.
In Episode 98 of Going Rogue with Lara Logan, Gary describes how his teams moved with extraordinary speed, taking on missions others would not attempt without CSAR support.
His orders were simple: get the mission done, and if there’s a problem, call me.
But behind that confidence was the enormous responsibility of sending men into extraordinarily dangerous situations. Gary tells Lara there were moments when he would excuse himself, go to his room, get on his knees and pray to God that he would not lose any of them.
They went anyway. And again and again, they succeeded.

MONOPOLIES ARE EVERYWHERE
Consolidation and monopoly power are not limited to America’s beef industry.
Fifth generation Texas cattle rancher Shad Sullivan tells Lara Logan that the same forces affecting ranchers can be seen across agriculture and other American industries, from fertilizer and food retail to technology.
Shad argues that at the center of this consolidation is something even more valuable: data and the ability to influence both production and consumption.
Lara and Shad also discuss the federal investigation into alleged anticompetitive practices in the beef industry and scrutiny of major meatpackers and retailers.
In Episode 97 of Going Rogue with Lara Logan, they examine who controls America’s beef supply, the decline of independent ranchers, foreign beef imports, country-of-origin labeling and what consolidation could mean for America’s food security and sovereignty.

WHERE DID YOUR BEEF COME FROM?
When you buy beef at the grocery store, do you actually know what country it came from?
Fifth generation Texas cattle rancher Shad Sullivan joins Lara Logan to explain Mandatory Country of Origin Labeling (MCOOL) and why he believes American consumers should know whether the beef they are buying came from the United States or was imported from countries such as Mexico, Brazil or Argentina.
Shad explains how imported beef enters the United States with documentation identifying its country of origin, but changes made in 2015 ended federal mandatory country-of-origin labeling requirements for beef and pork at retail.
In Episode 97 of Going Rogue with Lara Logan, Lara and Shad examine foreign beef imports, country-of-origin labeling, the concentration of the beef-processing industry, the decline of the American cattle herd, threats to private property rights and what the loss of independent ranchers could mean for America’s food security and sovereignty.

Watch Episode 93:
https://bit.ly/goingrogue-ep93
Steve Hilton, Republican candidate for Governor of California, joins Going Rogue with Lara Logan to make the case that 16 years of one-party Democratic rule has driven one of America’s most powerful states into decline.
Hilton takes aim at homelessness, unemployment, poverty, the cost of living, lost opportunity and a hostile business climate, all while Californians face some of the highest taxes in the country.
He also confronts the record of his opponent, former Biden HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra, and the crisis involving hundreds of thousands of unaccompanied migrant children who entered federal care. Hilton discusses allegations from whistleblowers that safeguards were stripped away, warnings were ignored and vulnerable children were placed at risk.
And Hilton lays out how he believes Republicans can actually win California: roughly 6 million votes, massive turnout, a serious ground game and a November voter ...
