Multiple sources told Secret Service chief of Chaffetz leak, IG says
| Posted Oct 26th, 2015 @ 6:23pm


Senator demands criminal probe into Secret Service
6PM: Multiple sources told Secret Service chief of Chaffetz leak, IG says

WASHINGTON The Inspector General for the Department of Homeland Security said Friday that Secret Service Director Joseph Clancy had learned of information surrounding the improper accessing and leaking of Rep. Jason Chaffetz's personnel file from at least three sources in the week before that sensitive information became public.

Chaffetz, who as chairman of the House Oversight Committee has been deeply critical of the Secret Service, once unsuccessfully applied for a job at the agency.

Clancy initially told investigators he didn't know anything about Secret Service officers accessing and spreading information about Chaffetz until just before news stories were published about it in April.

A few months later, Clancy acknowledged having heard a "rumor" in late March about Chaffetz having applied for a job there, but stated it was "not credible" and "not attributed to a source of information or indicative of any action — appropriate or otherwise — by any Secret Service employee."

Now, though, the inspector general has conducted more interviews and says Clancy was told about Chaffetz's record by at least three high-level official sources: a Secret Service deputy director, a deputy assistant director and former directors.

One of those former Secret Service directors, Julia Pierson, said it was Clancy who told her about the rumors circulating, and that Clancy had said the Secret Service was "looking into it."
"We are unable to determine, because he has no memory of it, the degree to which Director Clancy understood how widely the information was being disseminated within the Secret Service, or whether he understood that the discussion about Chairman Chaffetz was being fueled and confirmed by dozens of agents improperly accessing a protected file."
–Inspector General office statement

But Clancy did not take action to discover the ultimate source of this information surrounding Chaffetz, how it was discovered, or why it was circulating, the inspector general's office said. And Clancy told investigators that he doesn't remember anything about those March conversations about the rumors.

"We are unable to determine, because he has no memory of it, the degree to which Director Clancy understood how widely the information was being disseminated within the Secret Service, or whether he understood that the discussion about Chairman Chaffetz was being fueled and confirmed by dozens

Judge lets Jill Kelley seek information feds want hidden

Published: November 5, 2015

Lawyers for Jill and Scott Kelley, who are suing the FBI and Defense Department over the leaking of Jill Kelley’s name to the media, will be allowed to continue questioning an FBI agent and obtain additional documents from the FBI, a federal court judge ruled Wednesday.

Judge Amy Berman Jackson issued a ruling that gives lawyers for the Kelleys much of what they were seeking in a Sept. 2 deposition of Supervisory Special Agent Adam Malone.

The Kelleys’ legal team will now be able to ask Malone about when he discovered the source of emails that the couple considered threatening and whether Malone had concerns Jill Kelley had committed a crime.

They also may ask Malone why the Kelleys’ yahoo.com email account was subpoenaed, who else had access to the emails, with whom he discussed them and where they were kept.

In addition, the FBI must turn over a number of records in the case including names of everyone who received or reviewed the Kelleys’ emails and details about their transfer.

Also, internal communications between Oct. 15, 2012, and Nov. 15, 2012, mentioning Washington Post reporters Sari Horwitz or Greg Miller, “even if those emails do not refer to the Kelley case in particular,” the ruling says.

In June, 2012, Malone was working out of the FBI’s Tampa office and was in charge of a cyberstalking investigation that lead to the Nov. 9, 2012, resignation of CIA Director David Petraeus. The resignation came after it was found Petraeus had an affair with his biographer, Paula Broadwell.

The investigation was initiated after Scott Kelley received what the couple perceived as threatening emails from someone the FBI later identified as Broadwell. Broadwell was cleared of any wrongdoing in the case. The Kelleys and Broadwell declined comment.

On Nov. 11, 2012, Jill Kelley’s name was leaked to the media as the woman who went to the FBI after her husband received the emails from Broadwell. She and her husband eventually sued the government, but most of the case has been tossed, leaving behind only a Privacy Act claim. The claim requires that the Kelleys prove the leak was deliberate.

Attorneys for the Kelleys suggested in a motion that the source of the leak was former Defense Department General Counsel Jeh Johnson, now Homeland Security Secretary. Jill Kelley’s name was leaked around the time Johnson received emails from the FBI asking him to determine whether Jill Kelley’s emails with now-retired Marine Gen. John Allen violated military rules.

Allen was eventually cleared of any wrongdoing. However, nine reporters were subpoenaed to testify after Judge Jackson ruled that the Kelleys had to seek their testimony before Johnson would be allowed to testify.

Last month, the government filed a motion to limit Malone’s testimony, arguing that during that Sept. 2 deposition, he was subjected to queries designed to “annoy, harass and embarrass” him and the agency.

The government also argued that some questions from the Kelleys’ attorneys are designed to advance the couple’s “public relations goals” and insinuates that the Kelleys have leaked information from the case to the media.

The Kelleys’ legal team argued Jill Kelley was the target of FBI agents in Tampa fishing for evidence she was romantically involved with military leaders. And instead of treating Kelley as a potential crime victim, some of those agents were making lewd remarks about her. The documents say the agents referred to Kelley as a “femme fatale” who brought the trouble upon herself.

Jackson also ruled that protected information in this case cannot be used for “publ

Lockerbie & the FBI: Fakes Bureau International?

from Foreign Press Foundation - Henk Ruyssenaars - 08.03.2006 11:05


Pan Am Flight 103 was Pan American World Airways's third daily scheduled transatlantic flight from London's Heathrow International Airport to New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport.

On Wednesday 21 December 1988, the aircraft flying this route—a Boeing 747-121 named Clipper Maid of the Seas—was destroyed by a bomb, killing all 243 passengers and 16 crew members.[1] Eleven people in Lockerbie, south Scotland, were killed as large sections of the plane fell in and around the town, bringing total fatalities to 270.

The FBI put pressure on the Scottish police to ensure evidence was 'swept under the carpet'. This way the FBI and CIA avoided any embarrassment in the framing of Libya in the Lockerbie 'trial', where according to the UK police evidence also was 'made by the CIA'.

by Henk Ruyssenaars

FPF - Europe - March 8, 2006 - In England today, the Scotsman newspaper again has an article about the unjust influence the US secret police can have on foreign police investigations and their judiciary, the Courts that enforce laws and protect rights guaranteed in Constitutions. To make matters worse, these malversations by the US spooks anew direct the attention to the framed court case against Libya, and the crash of the PANAM plane in Lockerbie.*

The ''sweeping under the carpet'' in Scotland was ordered by the FBI, in connection with the CIA preparing the mainstream media lies and fabricating false evidence for the 'show trial' in Kamp Zeist in The Netherlands. None of the 'leading figures' in Holland - the PNAC pack collaborators in industry, politics, churches or media - to their eternal shame ever reacted against this flagrant injustice.

In this - according to the UN observer 'miscarriage of justice'* concerning the Lockerbie drama, the CIA was 'fixing the evidence around the politics'* In this McKie case forensic experts were forced to give false testimony. - Url.: http://tinyurl.com/mucdr" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; - ''Senior staff in the fingerprint laboratory said they had misgivings over the evidence but had been urged to "fall in line with the evidence''.

Under the title ''FBI ordered McKie case swept under carpet'' the Scotsman publishes the following: ''Pan Am investigator Juval Aviv revealed US agents put pressure on SCRO - McKie faced trial for perjury after denying she left a print at a crime scene - MPs have called for a public inquiry.

"THIS REVELATION MAKES THE CASE FOR AN INQUIRY ABSOLUTELY COMPELLING. IF MINISTERS KNEW ABOUT THIS, THEY SHOULD HAVE DISCLOSED IT TO PARLIAMENT EARLIER." - SNP MSP ALEX NEIL

Juval Aviv - a former Israeli Counterterrorism Intelligence Officer and President/CEO of Interfor Inc. - ] http://tinyurl.com/h3ya9" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;] - who was Pan Am's senior Lockerbie investigator, said officers from the Federal Bureau of Investigation traveled to Scotland to pressure the Scottish Criminal Record Office (SCRO) into a swift resolution of the McKie fingerprint case.

Mr Aviv said that during discussions with two senior members of staff in the fingerprint laboratory at SCRO in 1999 or 2000, both told him they had misgivings over the evidence against Ms McKie but had been urged to "fall in line with the evidence".

Campaigners and politicians, some of whom will tomorrow hold a press conference on the possible links between the two cases, said Mr Aviv's revelation reinforced the urgent need for a public inquiry into the whole McKie affair. The SCRO admitted last night that the FBI met its officers to talk about Lockerbie but vehemently denied any comments were made about the McKie case.

LIBYANS FRAMED FOR BOMBING PAN AM FLIGHT 103 IN 1988

Mr Aviv's accusations centre on an intense period of activity leading up to the trial of two Libyans accused of bombing Pan Am Flight 103 in 1988.* Part of the case against Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed al-Megrahi involved a contentious fingerprint lifted from a travel document in Malta. The fingerprint had only 12 matching points to suspected bomber Megrahi; many courts require 16 matching points.

Although the SCRO had nothing to do with identifying it, the credibility of the fingerprint was important. In 1999, a year before the trial was due to get under way at Kamp Zeist, the McKie controversy blew up. The Strathclyde policewoman had been put on trial for perjury after denying she had left a fingerprint at the scene of a crime.

However, scores of international fingerprint experts said the disputed print was not hers and she was acquitted.

REVELATION PUT AT RISK THE CREDIBILITY OF SCOTLAND'S FINGERPRINT SERVICE.

Mr Aviv said it was about this time the FBI flew to Scotland. "I heard about the [McKie] case and FBI putting pressure on the labs. I received phone calls from sources within the fingerprint lab saying the FBI visited Scotland and met with people in charge to discuss falling in line with the [McKie] evidence. They met several times and they co-ordinated actions." He went on: "[The SCRO] was under pressure from the FBI to manufacture evidence to suit this trial and convict the Libyan. [The FBI told it] any scandal that could taint this evidence could really interfere with Lockerbie and should be put under the carpet."

MR AVIV SAID THE FBI VISIT WAS PART OF A LARGER EFFORT TO GAIN CONSENSUS AMONG SCOTTISH INVESTIGATORS OVER LOCKERBIE EVIDENCE.

HE SAID: "THE SOURCES WERE APPALLED.

THAT'S ONE THING THAT YOU DO NOT DO - INTERFERE WITH A COURT CASE IN THE HAGUE AND ACCUSE TWO PEOPLE WHO COULD GET LIFE IN PRISON WITH MANUFACTURED EVIDENCE. THEY [THE SOURCES] WERE FED UP WITH IT."

WASHINGTON — After contradictory stories emerged about an F.B.I. agent’s killing last month of a Chechen man in Orlando, Fla., who was being questioned over ties to the Boston Marathon bombing suspects, the bureau reassured the public that it would clear up the murky episode.

“The F.B.I. takes very seriously any shooting incidents involving our agents, and as such we have an effective, time-tested process for addressing them internally,” a bureau spokesman said.

But if such internal investigations are time-tested, their outcomes are also predictable: from 1993 to early 2011, F.B.I. agents fatally shot about 70 “subjects” and wounded about 80 others — and every one of those episodes was deemed justified, according to interviews and internal F.B.I. records obtained by The New York Times through a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit.

The last two years have followed the same pattern: an F.B.I. spokesman said that since 2011, there had been no findings of improper intentional shootings.

In most of the shootings, the F.B.I.’s internal investigation was the only official inquiry. In the Orlando case, for example, there have been conflicting accounts about basic facts like whether the Chechen man, Ibragim Todashev, attacked an agent with a knife, was unarmed or was brandishing a metal pole. But Orlando homicide detectives are not independently investigating what happened.

“We had nothing to do with it,” said Sgt. Jim Young, an Orlando police spokesman. “It’s a federal matter, and we’re deferring everything to the F.B.I.”

Occasionally, the F.B.I. does discipline an agent. Out of 289 deliberate shootings covered by the documents, many of which left no one wounded, five were deemed to be “bad shoots,” in agents’ parlance — encounters that did not comply with the bureau’s policy, which allows deadly force if agents fear that their lives or those of fellow agents are in danger. A typical punishment involved adding letters of censure to agents’ files. But in none of the five cases did a bullet hit anyone.

Critics say the fact that for at least two decades no agent has been disciplined for any instance of deliberately shooting someone raises questions about the credibility of the bureau’s internal investigations. Samuel Walker, a professor of criminal justice at the University of Nebraska Omaha who studies internal law enforcement investigations, called the bureau’s conclusions about cases of improper shootings “suspiciously low.”

Current and former F.B.I. officials defended the bureau’s handling of shootings, arguing that the scant findings of improper behavior were attributable to several factors. Agents tend to be older, more experienced and better trained than city police officers. And they generally are involved only in planned operations and tend to go in with “overwhelming

A Madison police officer charged with a federal public corruption crime for stealing nearly $4,000 cash that was planted in a vehicle has resigned.

MPD: 'Corrupt' officer took nearly $4K in undercover sting

Madison police said Andrew Pullum, 31, of Verona, submitted his resignation Tuesday night. Police Chief Mike Koval accepted the resignation.

Pullum was arrested in December on suspicion of theft of government property and being a drug user in possession of a firearm. He pleaded not guilty in federal court this week.

Pullum was on administrative leave before he resigned.

Officials said police set up a sting after a citizen tip in August that Pullum, who joined MPD in 2013, might be planning a robbery with other people. Madison Police Chief Mike Koval said Pullum was also "associated with a convicted criminal."

According to the criminal complaint, Pullum was told to make contact with a citizen who was providing information to the police. Officials said the citizen was an undercover FBI officer. The undercover officer told Pullum that she was angry at her drug-dealing boyfriend and that there might be cocaine and money in a parked car. The complaint said Pullum opened the trunk of the car, removed a bag containing $3,950 in pre-counted FBI-owned money and put it in his vehicle.

Bland lawyers: Hold FBI in contempt for not producing Rangers report

January 15, 2016 Updated: January 15, 2016 8:15pm



Lawyers for Sandra Bland's mother and estate want a federal judge to hold FBI officials in contempt for not producing a Texas Rangers investigative report about the 28-year-old's arrest after a traffic stop last July, detention and death in a Waller County jail cell.

According to court papers, the FBI said it initially couldn't release any documents without the consent of the Texas Department of Public Safety, which includes the Rangers. Then, according to a brief filed by U.S. Attorney Ken Magidson, the FBI declined because the state had asked for a stay in the wrongful death lawsuit brought by the Bland family pending the outcome of a criminal perjury case against the arresting officer, Trooper Brian Encinia.

A government response also expresses surprise that Encinia was indicted. He has denied the charges.

As of late Friday, Cannon Lambert, who is among the lawyers representing the plaintiffs, said his legal team had not received the report.

The plaintiffs' 13-page motion, filed Thursday, asked the court to hold an FBI lawyer and support technician in contempt for failing to provide items listed in a subpoena, including all electronic recordings and reports "that in any way reference Sandra Bland."

The plaintiffs are also asking for a DVR control box and hard drive that the FBI "may have taken possession of," which could contain "original video footage of the Waller County jail at the times relevant to this litigation."

Tuesday 31 May 2016 13.20 EDT
The judge overseeing the premiere military tribunal at Guantánamo Bay effectively conspired with the prosecution to destroy evidence relevant to defending the accused architect of the 9/11 attacks, according to a scathing court document.

Army Col James Pohl, who this week at Guantánamo is presiding over a resumption of pretrial hearings in the already troubled case, “in concert with the prosecution, manipulated secret proceedings and the use of secret orders”, the document alleges, preventing Khalid Sheikh Mohammed’s defense team from learning Pohl had permitted the Obama administration to destroy the evidence.

Inspector General’s office violated protocol by conspiring with the FBI to punish Binney and his cohorts.

"They attempted to prosecute all of us," he says. "They fabricated evidence…They attempted three times to indict us."

Binney had authored his own analysis program, known as ThinThread. Invented to monitor individuals suspected of terrorism, Binney’s algorithms included a number of safeguards to insure that the privacy of Americans remained intact. The NSA, however, was not interested in these precautions.

"They used our software and corrupted it and turned it against the people of the United States," he says. "That was fundamentally a violation of the First, Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Amendments of the Constitution. So they were scrapping the Constitution, they were doing this all in secret."



Consumers Demanding Online Privacy in Light of Snowden Leaks
The motive behind the mass collection of raw data may have less to do with security and more to do with budgetary concerns.

"It commits the government and We the People to more taxing to keep increasing the budget of NSA to keep up with the volume of material being passed around the world," Binney says. "In other words, it’s an ever-increasing amount of communications occurring year after year, which means they have to have an ever-increasing capability to collect it all and store it all, which takes more and more money year after year."

"It’s like a self-licking ice cream cone that keeps going on and on and on…"

The NSA justified its actions as necessary to protect American citizens. But for Binney and other NSA whistleblowers, that defense is far too reminiscent of those made by Nazi Germany.

"The president can declare anyone a terrorist threat and have the military take them off the street, anywhere, and incarcerate them indefinitely without any due process. Those are violations of fundamental rights of the Constitution," he says.



Fired Pentagon Official: DoD and Obama Retaliate Against Whistleblowers
"That’s exactly what Special Order 48 issued by the Nazis in 1933 did, right after the Reichstag fire. It says almost exactly the same thing."

The US intelligence apparatus is detailed by Binney as acting exactly like a police state.

"They are now basically declaring openly that they are going to use the NSA collected data to prosecute people internally in the United States," Binney says.

"It’s not just inside the US, it’s worldwide. [The NSA] gives them power and evidence to use to intimidate and manipulate members of parliament in any government in the world. Any commercial company that’s doing things [the US] doesn’t want to happen, they’ve got data on them to."

Response to 50 GOP National Security Officials Opposing Donald Trump
Catherine, News & Commentary on August 6, 2016 at 1:08 am · 1 Comment
Ladies & Gentlemen:
Your statement regarding Donald Trump’s character, values and experience leaves me deeply concerned. Clearly, the Presidency of the United States is not an entry-level position. However, the disassociation of the Republican establishment from reality and from respect for the most basic human rights of the American people has left many Republicans with no other choice but a brash outsider.
The Clinton Administration “missed” $4 trillion, engineered a housing bubble that grew into trillions of dollars in mortgage fraud and instituted private slave labor camps that skyrocketed the US to the most imprisoned population in the world. The George W. Bush presidency spent $4 trillion for Middle Eastern Wars and outsourced our nuclear laboratory and weapons infrastructure to a private business controlled by a private family whose management was described by a senior Lawrence Livermore employee as a combination of “the worst aspects of the Department of Motor Vehicles and Goldman Sachs.” The Obama Administration finished us off with $27 trillion of bailouts and participation in a global quantitative easing that is debasing our retirement savings.
This was the result of the leadership of one or more people you consider to have the “character, values and experience” to be President of the United States. Why would we want more of that?

The life expectancy of a woman my age without a high school degree has fallen by five years since 1990.
Our children are being targeted by heavy vaccine schedules; current predictions are that 1 out of every 2 American children will be autistic by 2030.
Mandates for health care insurance we do not want and common core testing that is destroying our children’s education are dictated by Washington.
State efforts to ensure transparency regarding the quality of food we eat are overruled by Washington.
NBC ran a perfectly serious news spot recently arguing that we should microchip our children, as if they were livestock.
The homeownership rate is now at its lowest point since 1965.
The employment statistics are completely cooked.
Our children are overwhelmed with student debt issued under conditions of entrapment and predatory lending approved and financed by Washington.
Your profound disassociation from the pain within America is inexplicable. What you consider to be reasonable and respectable is psychopathy. Donald Trump’s popularity comes from his willingness to have a forthright conversation about what is happening and what needs to be done to make America great again.
The “debt growth model” is over. There is no more cheap money to fund false realities and unproductive behavior – whether by the general population or the establishment. Breaking this trance of disassociation between reality and the official narrative is an essential first step to practical solutions. Trump is the only person proposing to break the trance.
If you want to provide an alternative to Donald Trump, you must break the trance – yours included.
Sincerely Yours,
Catherine Austin Fitts

As you probably know, late last Friday afternoon President Obama vetoed a bill which had passed both houses of Congress unanimously, and Congress is now trying to work out whether it has enough clout to override the veto.

I don’t think it does. Behind Obama’s veto lie very powerful reasons, and behind those reasons stand very powerful people.

Senate votes to override Obama’s veto of 9/11 lawsuit bill
By Daniel Halper and Bob Fredericks September 28, 2016 | 12:40pm



Obama vetoes bill that would let 9/11 families sue Saudi Arabia
Congress dealt President Obama a humiliating foreign-policy blow Wednesday — voting to overturn his veto of a bill that would let families of 9/11 victims sue Saudi Arabia for that country’s alleged role in the terror attacks.

The Senate voted 97 to 1 to override the veto, and hours later the House did the same by a 348 to 77 vote.

The bipartisan measure, sponsored by Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer and Senate GOP Whip John Cornyn of Texas, would create an exception in the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act to allow victims of terrorism on US soil to sue foreign sponsors.

The FBI’s Hillary email probe is looking even more like a coverup
By Paul Sperry September 28, 2016

It’s bad enough that FBI Director James Comey agreed to pass out immunity deals like candy to material witnesses and potential targets of his investigation into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s illegal private e-mail server.

But now we learn that some of them were immunized despite lying to Comey’s investigators.

In the latest bombshell from Congress’ probe into what’s looking more and more like an FBI whitewash (or coverup) of criminal behavior by the Democratic nominee and her aides, the Denver-based tech who destroyed subpoenaed e-mails from Clinton’s server allegedly lied to FBI agents after he got an immunity deal.

That’s normally a felony. As a federal prosecutor, Comey tossed Martha Stewart in jail for it and helped convict Scooter Libby for it as well. Yet the key Clinton witness still maintained his protection from criminal prosecution.

With Comey’s blessing, Obama prosecutors cut the deal with the e-mail administr

Trump Selects Controversial Sen. Jeff Sessions for Attorney General


Jeff Sessions

By Steve Neavling
ticklethewire.com

President-elect Donald Trump’s choice for attorney general is Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions, a controversial pick because of his staunchly conservative positions on immigration, gay rights and Muslims.

The 69-year-old, four-term Alabama Republican also has a history of making racist statements, which kept him from getting a judgeship under President Reagan in 1986.

Sessions, for example, said the NAACP and other organizations are “communist inspired” and “un-American organizations with anti-traditional American values,” the New York Times reported at the time.

During a committee hearing in 1986, Thomas Figures, a black assistant U.S. attorney who worked for Sessions, testified that the Alabama Republican said he thought KKK members were “OK, until he learned that they smoked marijuana.”

Sessions also has argued that immigrants don’t have constitutional protections and that prison sentencing shouldn’t be overhauled for drug convictions.

When Trump proposed a complete shutdown on Muslims entering the U.S., Sessions defended the idea.

Asked whether he would serve in Trump’s administration Thursday, Sessions said he’d be “honored.”

Secret Service Can’t Find Tons Of Its Guns, Phones, Badges And Cars

Thousands of sensitive assets belonging to U.S. Secret Service agents, including firearms, computer laptops, work badges, telephones and even motor vehicles, have been lost during the past 15 years, according to documents obtained by nonprofit government watchdog Judicial Watch.

“This is supposedly an elite law enforcement agency — how did all this equipment get stolen?” or lost. “This is alarming. Every American should be alarmed about this,” Judicial Watch’s Irene Garcia told The Daily Caller News Foundation.

Secret Service agents reported 11,780 lost or stolen assets between fiscal years 2001 and 2016, according to the data Judicial Watch received, although the agency didn’t distinguish between lost and stolen items.

A total of 121 “weapons/pistols” were lost or stolen from 2001 through 2016, including 69 in 2002 alone. The Secret Service also reported 736 cell phones, 571 badges and six vehicles as lost or stolen in that same period. (RELATED: DHS Lost Thousands Of Badges, Hundreds Of Guns Since 2012)

Lawyer at center of Jeff Sessions racism controversy speaks out

NEW YORK DAILY NEWS Friday, November 18, 2016, 12:23 PM


President-elect Trump rewarded Jeff Sessions' loyalty with a top spot in his cabinet — but the Alabama senator has carried the specture of bigotry throughout his career. (CAROLYN KASTER/AP)
The man whose testimony helped block Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) from a federal judgeship three decades ago over his racially charged comments thinks the same should happen now that he's been nominated for Attorney General.

Civil rights attorney Gerry Hebert testified in 1986 that Sessions had repeatedly made racially insensitive remarks in his presence while a U.S. attorney in Alabama. In his view, Sessions' three-decade career since has only strengthened Hebert's belief that he shouldn't be handed the keys of America's top law enforcement vehicle.

"Anybody who'd really put Jeff Sessions as head of the Justice Department with his record is not interested in uniting the country but dividing it further," Hebert told the Daily News Friday morning.

9/11’s PHOENIX MEMO: FBI agent & author of the Prescott warning wonders if it could have changed the outcome


In the years leading up to the events of Sept. 11, 2001, FBI agents based in Arizona conducted a significant investigation focused on two Middle Eastern men attending Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University’s (ERAU) Prescott Campus.


The investigation resulted in one of those agents, Kenneth Williams, writing what famously became known as the “Phoenix Memo” to his superiors in Washington, D.C.
The memo raised serious concerns about Middle Eastern men attending U.S. flight schools.

Williams visited ERAU on Wednesday, Nov. 16, to give a detailed account of the investigation.

In about 1997/1998, the FBI heard through open-source information an organiz

TRUTH AND SHADOWS
Following the white rabbit
MAINSTREAM NEWSPAPER PRINTS OP-ED QUESTIONING 2014 OTTAWA SHOOTINGS



Soldiers on the scene of Parliament Hill shooting in 2014.

Oct. 25, 2016

By Barrie Zwicker

For 15 years I was paid to mainly find fault with the media, while on occasion celebrating well-crafted reporting, excellent think pieces, and the advent of independent journalism. A recent opinion piece that is worth celebrating is Prof. Graeme MacQueen’s op-ed in the Hamilton Spectator published on October 21st.

In the article (reproduced in its entirety below), MacQueen raises a series of questions rarely posed in the media concerning the Parliament Hill shootings in Ottawa in October 2014. What is truly impressive is not just the considerable depth of research that went into compiling the questions but also that these doubts about the official story of this event were printed in a mainstream newspaper at all.

But first, some context. I’m on board with other media critics, paid and unpaid, professional and amateur, who are frustrated in general with most media, both mainstream and so-called alternative. Fed up with how day in and day out they kowtow to the establishment. How they distract readers, listeners and viewers with superficial McNugget journalism. With how they repeat big lies, omit big truths, over and over again. How they fail to question, let alone engage in, investigative journalism on the life-and-death issues of war, the corporatization of the world, vast inequalities, environmental destruction. How in general— name your important topic area—they are part of problems rather than part of solutions.

There are honourable exceptions. One current example is mainstream media coverage of aboriginal grievances. Another is justice for thalidomide survivors. But, again, those exceptions were very late showing up.

Despite this and many other faults, there’s a reason that mainstream media should not be written off. For the honourable exceptions, yes, but even more because of a stubborn fact that still holds, despite the welcome rise of dissident Internet sites and “citizen journalism.” That fact is this: it’s from the mainstream media that most people still get most of their information on most subjects most of the time. We must respect the readers, listeners and viewers who are more important, finally, than media they may accept or even love but which are betraying them.

For that reason alone those of us who are aware, for instance, of the prevalence, perfidy and terrible outcomes of false flag operations (9/11 still the worst, so far) cannot give up on somehow trying to reach all those readers, listeners and viewers through whatever opportunities, within the MSM, still exist to do so.

There seem to me three basic opportunities. One is for writers, even amateur ones, to look for a magazine (or possibly a newspaper section) that still shows some independence and is willing to take a risk once in a while, then research and write a non-mainstream approach to one of those important topics that one knows about and feels passionate about. An example, and I grant that they’re all too rare, was a piece in Toronto Life magazine in November 2014 by Naheed Mustafa, entitled “The Jihadists of Suburbia.” The injustice of the conviction of the “terrorists” in the “VIA Rail plot” was spelled out with detailed gumshoe work and a sense of story.

Another opportunity is letters to editors. It’s been a constant since newspapers came into being that the letters page is the second most read after the front page. There are whole treatises on how to write an effective letter to the editor and get it published. But if you want to point out that the official story of 9/11 is a fiction you nevertheless have an uphill slog, even or especially around 9/11’s anniversaries. Same with writing a letter about false flag operations. Editors seem positively allergic even to the phrase. A few letters along these lines, however, sneak through. And letters pointing out the sham and shame of the so-called “war on terror” are actually seen far more frequently these days than earlier.

This brings us to the final opportunity: the opinion pages. Same barriers. Same types of editors. Same thing. It’s almost always Rejection City. This is why, when an op-ed is published pointing out that an official narrative should be questioned, it does show that once in a while the barrier can be breached, an editor can be reached.

Here’s how MacQueen did it. First he chose an anniversary, in this case the second anniversary, of his subject as timing for submitting his piece. He submitted it 20 or so days before the anniversary, so editors would not be rushed. This also gave him time to submit it elsewhere if The Spec rejected it.

Second he decided against trying the Toronto Star first and opted instead for his local paper. A local (and preferably substantial) person will have an edge over an out-of-towner. It’s a total no-no to submit simultaneously to two publications, even for a letter to the editor. One must choose. The Star might have run it. We’ll never know. But it’s wise to go with the odds.

The length, 553 words, is right. The title MacQueen wisely suggested was “We Need a Public Inquiry into the Ottawa Shootings of October 22, 2014.” Proven wise because that was the headline The Spec went with. Wise also because it was the action point of the piece and also its last line. Bookended and reinforced.

The tone was right. At the beginning he empathizes with the grieving family of Hamilton’s Nathan Cirillo. But MacQueen goes on immediately to question the Harper government for using Cirillo’s death to push Bill C-51 through Parliament.


MacQueen: important questions.

MacQueeen then chooses to highlight a scandal, that Ontario’s Chief Coroner has never ordered an inquest into Cirillo’s death (nor that of Mr. Zehaf-Bibeau).

And then the questions—nine of them. And following them reference to (what he has already partly proven) “a troubling lack of transparency” and more. Finally, the last sentence, which repeats the headline. A++.

MacQueen’s approach and style deserve to be seen as a template which others who hope to surmount barriers the mainstream media maintain can augment with their own passions and voices.

We should not despair (although I admit to finding it hard to avoid, a good deal of the time). We should remember what author and activist June Callwood once said: “Nothing is lost in the universe.” Give it a whirl, as below. See what the universe says.

We need a public inquiry into the 2014 Ottawa shootings

Hamilton Spectator

By Graeme MacQueen
On Oct. 22, 2014, Hamilton’s Cpl. Nathan Cirillo, standing guard at the National War Memorial in Ottawa, was shot to death. The perpetrator, Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, then entered the Centre Block of Parliament with his loaded rifle, creating the worst security breach on Parliament Hill in Canada’s history.

Cirillo lost his life, and his family and friends suffered grievously. The repercussions of the event, however, go beyond this. Stephen Harper’s government used this attack, as well as an assault on two soldiers on Oct. 20, 2014 in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, near Montreal, to push Bill C-51 through Parliament. This controversial bill, now law in Canada, gives intelligence agencies increased power and diminishes the civil rights of Canadians.

On Oct. 22, 2014, CBC news anchor Peter Mansbridge said that Canadian journalists, as well as members of Parliament, would relentlessly investigate the attack. This has not happened. Instead, the anniversary of Cirillo’s death has been used as an occasion for flag waving, even though key questions about the case have not been answered.

If the perpetrator had lived, there would have been a public trial and the central facts would have been disclosed. But when security forces killed Zehaf-Bibeau they ended the possibility of a trial.

We have not even had an inquest. Ontario’s chief coroner could have ordered an inquest into the death of Mr. Cirillo or the death of Zehaf-Bibeau but has not done so.

In 2015, several police reports related to this case were released, but these did not ever raise the most important questions, much less answer them.

How was this homeless man able to buy the car that was crucial to his crime? Since he was evidently a good planner, why did he take the risk of driving this car for three hours on the highway without licence plates? Since he had a police record that prohibited him from purchasing firearms, how did he get hold of a rifle? Where did he acquire his bullets and knife? Why did police initially confirm that there had been more than one perpetrator? Why did the RCMP commissioner say there had been “no advance warning” when the evidence suggests there were at least six warnings? Why was the B.C. legislature taking precautions because of these warnings while security forces in Ottawa were caught flat-footed? Why did security forces find it necessary to shoot Zehaf-Bibeau 31 times? Was he wearing body armour in Centre Block as some have claimed and, if so, where did he get it?

There is a troubling lack of transparency about the government’s treatment of these events. Canadians have a right know that their physical security and the security of members of their armed forces, such as Corporal Cirillo, are being honestly addressed. They also have a right to see the evidence in a case where inroads are being made on their civil rights. The fact that a police killing has prevented a trial from taking place is no excuse for withholding evidence from the public.

We need a public inquiry into the events of Oct. 22, 2014.

Graeme MacQueen is a retired McMaster University professor who in 2015 produced the report “The October 22, 2014, Ottawa Shootings: Why Canadians Need a Public Inquiry.”

The author, scholar and activist, Angela Davis, will be the keynote speaker at a banquet Jan. 14 in Memphis, said Mid-South Peace and Justice Center Executive Director Brad Watkins.

"Her huge body of work in the history of resistance and social change has been an inspiration to so many people," Watkins said.
Watkins said there is "no better time to reaffirm our commitment to the struggle for positive social change, to oppose bigotry and sexism and racism. I think she'll be a perfect person to bring the experiences of the past into a modern context and get us all ready for the work that is to come."
Davis, 72, a professor in the History of Consciousness and Feminist Studies Departments at the University of California, Santa Cruz, has lectured across the country and internationally. She is the author of nine books including, "Women, Race, and Class," "Are Prisons Obsolete?" and "The Meaning of Freedom."
Davis' activism began as a young person in Birmingham, Alabama. In 1970, Davis was placed on the FBI's 10 Most Wanted list. She was arrested, incarcerated and ultimately found not guilty of murder, conspiracy and kidnapping in a Marin County, California courtroom shootout. The prosecution had alleged she was involved in a plot to take hostages and free three prisoners known as the Soledad Brothers. Her incarceration sparked the "Free Angela Davis" campaign.
Davis visited the University of Memphis in 1992 at then-Memphis State University where she spoke to an overflow crowd of more than 500 people and challenged students to question history as they knew it. She returned to the University of Memphis in 2008 where she voiced support for restoring voting rights to people convicted of crimes and opposition to the prison system.
January's event is sponsored by the criminal justice reform advocacy group Just City, Rhodes College and the Women's Foundation of Greater Memphis.
"In an age of social media activism I find myself often in awe of activists of days past," said attorney Carlissa Shaw, 29, of Memphis, who plans to hear Davis speak. "Activists that put their lives and livelihood in jeopardy to support their cause. Angela Davis makes the short list of

State Department Employee Makes Deal in Child Porn Case
December 26, 2016


Summary: A Department of State diplomatic security officer made a plea to one felony count for child pornography.

Diplomatic security officer for the Department of State was caught in an undercover FBI child pornography operation.  The officer pleaded guilty to one felony count after striking a deal with federal prosecutors. James Cafferty, 45, pleaded to transporting child pornography. Cafferty faced a mandatory minimum sentence of five years in prison but the judge could have sentenced him up to 20 years. In the end, he was sentenced to seven years.

Cafferty’s most recent position was at the U.S. Embassy in London. In the plea agreement filed in a U.S. District Court in Tampa, he admitted to bringing 15,000 images of child pornography on three hard drives with him on his trip back from England in August. The images were both photos and videos.

A search of his Largo, Florida home by law enforcement found over 30,000 child porn images on digital storage media devices. When questioned by federal agents, he admitted to “photo-shopping himself into scenes constituting

West Oakland Action Feeds Folks, Saves a Home, Denies Cops a Photo Op
Tue Oct 25 2016 People's Block Party Supplants Oakland Police "Copaganda" Effort, Saves Home

Word got out that the Oakland Police Department had intentions to do neighborhood outreach in West Oakland on October 18. Knowing that OPD holds public relations events such as these to whitewash their earned reputation as racist, violent, and corrupt, the Anti Police-Terror Project set out to prevent OPD from exploiting local residents for a propagandistic photo op.

Oakland police planned their "copaganda" event for 3pm at 24th and Linden streets, so the Anti Police-Terror Project (APTP) beat them to it by arriving a little after 1:30pm. As tents, a children's play area, and a barbecue were being set up for a community block party, folks noticed a tow truck a few houses up the street preparing to make off with a parked recreational vehicle while a civilian Oakland police technician supervised.

Just as the tow truck began to drive away with a man's home, several people rushed in front of the truck, preventing it from leaving. About an hour later, after plenty of back and forth with police, it was agreed that the tow truck would release the RV and the owner would be afforded time to take care of legal requirements for a non-operational vehicle.

More to story than Christopher Young allegedly distributing child porn, ex-Jefferson Parish president's brother argues
DEC 26, 2016 - 2:25 PM (3)


The Louisiana Office of Alcohol and Tobacco Control, headed by Commissioner Troy Hebert, right, and Louisiana State Police, headed by Superintendent Col. Michael D. Edmonson, left, announce the details of a monthlong undercover operation named 'Operation Trick or Treat' naming five strip clubs as having allegedly been locations of acts of prostitution, illegal drug use, and lewd or improper acts in front of the Louisiana Supreme Court Building in the French Quarter in New Orleans, La. Tuesday, Oct. 27, 2015.
Joe Gyan

Six months after alleging that federal child porn charges against him are the result of a "selective and vindictive" prosecution, the war of words between Baton Rouge lawyer and former state liquor lobbyist Christopher Young and prosecutors rages on in court filings.

Young, the brother of former Jefferson Parish President John Young, claims the only reason he's being prosecuted in U.S. District Court in Baton Rouge is because he refused to cooperate with federal authorities in a public corruption probe.

Federal prosecutors counter that nothing could be further from the truth. The truth, they say, is that a Baton Rouge federal grand jury indicted Christopher Young in May on possession of child pornography and distribution of child pornography charges because he forwarded videos of boys engaging in sex acts with donkeys to friends, family, clients and others

U.S. District Judge John deGravelles held hearings in September and October on Young's motion to dismiss the federal charges but hasn't issued a ruling.

In court documents filed since the hearing, Assistant U.S. Attorneys Cam Le and René Salomon insist there's "no improper motive" behind the prosecution of Young.

Man claims FBI 'extorted' him on sex charge in swap for dirt on ex-ATC chief Troy Hebert
Young's attorneys — Billy Gibbens, Marci Blaize and Taylor Townsend — beg to differ and say federal authorities were interested in Young only because of his lobbying activities before the Louisiana Office of Alcohol and Tobacco Control and his relationship with former ATC Commissioner Troy Hebert.

"Rhetoric aside, Young knows that he is being prosecuted because he engaged in illegal child sexual exploitation by repeatedly distributing, over a two-year period of time, graphic child pornography bestiality videos to his friends, family, clients and colleagues," the prosecutors argue in asking deGravelles to deny Young's motion.

Just because Young claims he had no lustful interest when he distributed and possessed the videos doesn't mean he should be shielded from federal prosecution, the government attorneys add.

Le and Salomon note that the investigation arose out of an unsolicited referral from a local lawyer to the U.S. Attorney's Office.

"Subsequent forensic analysis revealed that Young … distributed child pornography bestiality videos, on 33 separate occasions, to 38 different individuals," the prosecutors state.

Young's attorneys argue that what began as a child porn investigation quickly morphed into a public corruption probe when the federal government learned of Young's lobbying activities and his friendship with Hebert.

"It took a child pornography case that it normally would not have prosecuted and used it to try to force Mr. Young to become a government agent in a fishing expedition for public corruption," his lawyers contend.

Not true, according to Le and Salomon, who say Young's decision not to cooperate with law enforcement "was not the motivation for the Government's decision to seek an indictment."

"Defendants regularly reject plea agreements; there is no evidence that Young's choice to do so here made prosecutors retaliate against him," the prosecutors argue.

Young testified in deGravelles' courtroom in September that FBI agent Maurice Hattier Jr. told him that "whatever is on that phone doesn't have to become public if you cooperate with us in a public corruption investigation."

Hattier also testified and denied making that statement to Youn

Timeline of BART Police Killings and Militarization
Sun Nov 20 2016 Center for Convivial Research and Autonomy Documents BART Police Violence

A timeline mapping Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) police violence and militarization was collectively generated as part of a larger ongoing convivial research effort to expose low intensity war across the Bay Area and state. The timeline was produced through a collaboration between the Center for Convivial Research and Autonomy (CCRA) and Carville Annex Press as part of the struggle for Justice for James "Nate" Greer.

The timeline is a tool that remembers, counts, mourns and honors our dead. It is a collaborative effort of documentation over time that makes visible the many resistances that have refused erasure. This refusal itself is a confrontation against state violence. The timeline reflects our insurgent and organized community across the Bay Area and in its detail is reflected the work and tears and blood of many over time.

Construction of the BART system in the 1960s notoriously cut through Black and Brown communities across the San Francisco Bay Area, disrupting vibrant social life and vernacular circuits of activity. It forced the relocation of Black and Brown families, businesses, and civic institutions often creating competition between the two. When BART began running in 1972 it already had a state sanctioned police force and by 1976 BART police exercised full police powers across all 52 California counties.

Oakland Police Veteran Says OPD Covered Up Domestic Murder by Officer

Oakland police sergeant James "Mike" Gantt has come forward with allegations of the Oakland police department and city leaders retaliating against him for his investigation as to whether fellow officer Brendan O'Brien murdered his wife, Irma Huerta-Lopez, on June 16, 2014. With a long record as a homicide inspector for OPD, Gantt unequivocally states that he believes O'Brien did indeed murder his wife and OPD covered it up, retaliating against him for attempting to do an honest examination of the evidence.

Nine appointed to Police Civilian Review Panel

On Feb. 28, the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors appointed nine Fairfax County residents to serve on the newly established Police Civilian Review Panel. The creation of a Civilian Review Panel was recommended by the Ad Hoc Police Practices Review Commission in their October 2015 final report to the Board of Supervisors.

“The Police Civilian Review Panel will promote further transparency and openness in community policing,” Chairman Sharon Bulova said. “Each appointed member will bring a valuable perspective, extensive knowledge and years of community involvement to the table. Together with their impressive skillsets, this group of individuals will set the bar high for how the Civilian Review Panel will operate. I am very proud of our Fairfax County Police Department. This Panel will contribute toward making us a model of excellence for the nation.”

The Civilian Review Panel will act as an independent avenue or “portal” for residents to submit complaints concerning allegations of abuse of authority or misconduct by a Fairfax County Police (FCPD) Officer. The Panel will also have the authority to request and review completed Police Department internal administrative investigations regarding a civilian complaint against an officer. The Panel may hold public meetings to review police administrative investigations and walk through with members of the community how the investigation was conducted, including findings of fact, evidence collected and witness statements. Examples of complaints and cases for the Civilian Review Panel to receive and review may include:

• The use of abusive, racial, ethnic or sexual language;

• Harassment or discrimination based on race, color, sex, religion, national origin, marital status, age, familial status, or disability;

• The reckless endangerment of a detainee or person in custody;

• Serious violations of Fairfax County or FCPD procedures

The Civilian Review Panel will not address potentially criminal use of force or police-involved shootings. Cases of that magnitude would likely involve an investigation by the Commonwealth’s Attorney and would be monitored by the newly hired Police Auditor, Richard G. Schott.

The Board of Supervisors has appointed Adrian Steel to serve as the first chairman of the Civilian Review Panel. All subsequent chairmen will be selected by members of the Civilian Review Panel in a manner that will be determined by the Panel’s bylaws. Panel members will serve three year terms with a two term limit, although some inaugural members will serve for less time to allow for staggered terms.

The first orders of business for the Civilian Review Panel include writing bylaws detailing how the Panel will function, and training Panel members on current police practices and policies in Fairfax County. Once those items are complete, which may take a number of months, the Civilian Review Panel will begin their work of requesting and reviewing cases.

New release of Black Panther file reveals FBI rigged investigation of murdered policeman
February 26, 2017

by Michael Richardson

Buried in the Federal Bureau of Investigation file of deceased Black Panther leader Wopashitwe Mondo Even we Langa (formerly David Rice) are secrets still hidden by Bureau censors, missing records, a misleading letter to a New Jersey Congressman, and a handwritten note revealing the FBI called off the search for a policeman’s killer just four days after the officer was buried.


An FBI memo dated Aug. 20, 1970, approves the Omaha Police request for help comparing voices – the voice of the person who called police with the voices of the suspects. But two days later, in a handwritten note at the lower right, the voice exams are cancelled, indicating a setup.
Mondo was deputy of information for the National Committee to Combat Fascism in Omaha, Nebraska, in 1970 when he was accused of murdering a policeman with a bomb. The NCCF was a Black Panther affiliate organization targeted by the FBI under an illegal and clandestine counterintelligence operation dubbed COINTELPRO.

Mondo was on a secret detention list called the Security Index, and Director J. Edgar Hoover ordered the Omaha FBI office to get Mondo off the streets. Mondo died serving a life sentence for murder on March 11, 2016, at the Nebraska State Penitentiary.

The heavily redacted file contains three pages of content still censored from public release 46 years after the crime. Many redactions go to protect the identity of informant OM T-7. The three redacted pages of interview information were “immediately

Democrat Questions FBI Director’s Willingness to Investigate Trump’s Ties to Russia


Russian leader Vladimir Putin


FBI Director has shown virtually no willingness to cooperate with a Congressional investigation into potential ties between Russia and President Trump’s campaign, the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee said Monday.

“I have yet to be convinced … by the director of the FBI that we will have the fulsome kind of cooperation that we will need,” Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., told reporters in the Capitol, The Hill reports.

Without the full coperation of the FBI and Comey, Schiff said there’s little the Intelligence Committee can do.

“We can’t become the FBI, we can’t send out our own investigators spanning all over the globe,” Schiff said. “We will need their cooperation, and whether we will get that in as fulsome a manner as we need has yet to be determined, in my view.”

Schiff’s comments came just hours after Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., said he’s seen “no evidence” of ties between Russia and

By David Voreacos, Jef Feeley and Neil Weinberg, Bloomberg News
The Justice Department offers secrecy and cash to whistle-blowers for information about companies that cheated the government.

But one former government attorney is accused of using that information for his own gain. Turning the tables on a unit that can spend years investigating fraud cases, FBI agents are now questioning Justice Department lawyers about their ex-colleague, who was accused last month of trying to sell secrets about a case for $310,000.
Prosecutors say Jeffrey Wertkin attempted to sell a whistle-blower's confidential lawsuit against a Silicon Valley company -- while wearing a wig in disguise. FBI agents want to know whether Wertkin, who left the government in April, got the lawsuit from someone inside the Justice Department and if he sold other secrets while working there, according to two people familiar with the matter who weren't authorized to discuss it publicly.
"They're going to have to review all his cases," said Glenn Grossenbacher, a San Antonio whistle-blower attorney not involved in the case. "Did somebody give this case to him? Did he take it with him? Are there other cases involved? It's a Pandora's Box of questions."
Justice Department spokeswoman Nicole Navas and FBI spokesman Matthew Bertron declined to comment.
The case has riveted the legal community. Justice Department lawyers specializing in False Claims Act cases conduct their investigations in secret after whistle-blowers file a lawsuit accusing companies of defrauding the government; in such cases, they have recovered $24 billion over eight years. Companies usually don't learn about a suit until the government nears the end of its probe.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Louisville’s mayor announced that he has asked the FBI to investigate what he called “our worst nightmare,” the alleged sexual abuse of children in the police department’s Youth Explorer program.
Mayor Greg Fischer also said he had hired former U.S. Attorney Kerry Harvey to review an investigation conducted by Louisville Metro Police and determine whether “errors were made,” including by police Chief Steve Conrad.

Someone stole a Secret Service agent's laptop right out of his car, but don't worry

President Kennedy wasn't assassinated in Dallas. I have proof. He was whisked away via captured alien spacecraft from Area 51. He now resides with Elvis, Anastasia, and Bigfoot in the North Pole just down the street from Santa Claus. Save this post in case something happens to me. The FBI is using genetically cloned mutated nazis to make me "disappear". My guess is that they'll take me to the burmida triangle to the underwater command post the masons are using to control the moon! If I escape I'll contact you!
