TOO BIG TO PROSECUTE — DOJ GIVES GIANT CORPORATIONS A PASS


The Justice Department is often zealous, sometimes to the point of recklessness, in prosecuting street crime and drug offenses. But it has been dilatory and feckless — our podcast guest this week calls it “chickenshit” — in prosecuting white collar criminals, many of whom helped to bring down the US economy in 2008.

Once, not that long ago, the government prosecuted the likes of Michael Milken and executives of Enron, Adelphia and Worldcom. It may have been the golden age of white collar prosecution.

Today, executives at Wells Fargo, Goldman Sachs, and so many others that played roles in precipitating the 2008/2009 crash, have escaped the long arm of the law.

What happened? What’s changed? In part, it was a backlash to the Enron era. Suddenly, defending executives became an increasingly lucrative practice at elite law firms.

This created a revolving door between the Department of Justice and “big law” — with the result that prosecutors and defense attorneys on opposite sides of the table were often the same people wearing different hats.

In a story that involves the likes of James Comey, Preet Bharara, Sally Yates, and Eric Holder, this week’s WhoWhatWhy guest, journalist Jesse Eisinger, the author of “The Chickenshit Club: Why the Justice Department Fails to Prosecute Executives,” tells Jeff Schechtman that it was Comey himself who said that federal prosecutors who had never lost a case and shied away from bringing hard, complex cases, were obviously “chickenshit.”

Trump, first lady to skip Kennedy Center Honors over concerns of ‘political distraction’

President Trump and first lady Melania Trump have elected not to attend the annual Kennedy Center Honors in December amid a political backlash among those who will be feted at the event.

The first family will not participate “to allow the honorees to celebrate without any political distraction,” White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement Saturday morning.

The announcement comes as three of the five honorees — television producer Norman Lear, singer Lionel Richie and dancer Carmen de Lavallade — said they would or may boycott the traditional White House reception related to the celebration. As for the other two, rapper LL Cool J had not said whether he would attend, and Cuban American singer Gloria Estefan said she would go to try to influence the president on immigration issues.

Computer programming is, according to Wired’s Clive Thompson, “The Big Blue Collar Job.” In countries like Australia and Estonia, coding has become a central part of school curricula. If programming is the wave of the future in employment, prisons in several American states may be cutting incarcerated people off from gaining important skills by preventing them from possessing or receiving books about computer programming.

Oswald killer Jack Ruby told FBI informant to 'watch the fireworks ...

Oswald killer Jack Ruby told FBI informant to 'watch the fireworks' the day JFK ... letter to the agent Ted L. Gunderson of the FBI's Dallas office which outlined that ...

Published time: 18 Nov, 2017 22:56Edited time: 18 Nov, 2017 22:58

Freshly released FBI records show that Jack Ruby, the man who killed Lee Harvey Oswald, asked an FBI informant if he wanted to “watch the fireworks” just hours before President John F. Kennedy’s assassination in 1963.



The document, which was among 10,744 files released by the National Archive on Friday, outlines what an FBI informant told officials about Ruby, hinting that the nightclub owner may have known that Kennedy was going to be targeted.

In March 1977, nearly 14 years after JFK’s assassination, the chief of the intelligence division of the Internal Revenue Service, Robert J. Potrykus, hand delivered a letter to the agent Ted L. Gunderson of the FBI’s Dallas office which outlined that Ruby telephoned the informant on the morning of the fatal shooting of the president and asked him if he wanted to go to watch the presidential parade.

READ MORE: JFK assassination: What was Lee Harvey Oswald doing in the USSR?

“The informant stated that on the morning of the assassination, Ruby contacted him and asked if he would ‘like to watch the fireworks,’” the letter reads.

“He was with Jack Ruby and standing at the corner of the Postal Annex Building facing the Texas School Book Depository Building at the time of the shooting. Immediately after the shooting, Ruby left and headed toward the area of the Dallas Morning News Building.”

The follow up documentation reveals that the informant was Bob Vanderslice of Dallas. In 1977 he told the FBI that Ruby said nothing to him immediately after the assassination. However after Ruby was arrested for killing Oswald, Vanderslice was also arrested on an unrelated charge, and he got to know Ruby better in Dallas County Jail.

Former marine Oswald was formally charged with killing the president before being gunned down by Ruby, as he was being transported to the county jail, just two days after the assassination in November 1963. Ruby later died in prison.

On January 27, 1988, Rep. Mervyn Dymally, then the chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus, put into the Congressional Record a sworn affidavit from former FBI special agent Hirsch Friedman, exposing an FBI program called ``Operation Fruehmenschen'' (German for ``primitive'' or ``early man.'') Friedman's affidavit, originally filed in Federal court in Atlanta, and provided to the relevant committees of the House of Representatives, declared:
``The purpose of this policy was the routine investigation without probable cause of prominent elected and appointed black officials in major metropolitan areas throughout the United States. I learned from my conversations with special agents of the FBI that the basis for this policy was the assumption by the FBI that black officials were intellectually and socially incapable of governing major governmental organizations and institutions.''

FBI Director says We don't open files based on race.....


Gavin Long, Baton Rouge police killer, cited in FBI report on black 'extremists'




WASHINGTON -- An FBI report on the rise of black "extremists" is stirring fears of a return to practices used during the civil rights movement. That's when the bureau spied on activist groups without evidence they had broken any laws.

The FBI said it doesn't target specific groups, and the report is one of many its intelligence analysts produce to make law enforcement aware of what they see as emerging trends. A similar bulletin on white supremacists, for example, came out about the same time.

The 12-page report, issued in August, says "black identity extremists" are increasingly targeting law enforcement after police killings of black men, especially since the shooting of Michael Brown roiled Ferguson, Mo., in 2014. It cites the case of Gavin Long killing three Baton Rouge officers in 2016, and it describes cases in which "extremists" had "acted in retaliation for perceived past police brutality incidents." It warned that such violence was likely to continue.


The Baton rouge District Attorney's Office released most of its investigative file on the July 2016 ambush shooting that killed three officers.

Black leaders and activists were outraged after Foreign Policy disclosed the existence of the report in October. The Congressional Black Caucus, headed by U.S. Rep. Cedric Richmond, D-New Orleans, said in a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray that the report "conflates black political activists with dangerous domestic terrorist organizations" and would further erode the frayed relationship between police and minority communities.

"I have never met a black extremist. I don't know what the FBI is talking about," said Chris Phillips, a filmmaker in Ferguson.


Before the Trump administration, the report might not have caused such alarm. The FBI said it issued a similar bulletin warning of retaliatory violence by "black separatist extremists" in March 2016, when the country had a black president, Barack Obama, and black attorney general, Loretta Lynch.

But black voters overwhelmingly opposed Donald Trump. And they are suspicious of his administration, which has been criticized as insensitive on racial issues, including when Trump was slow to condemn white nationalist protesters following a deadly rally in Charlottesville, Va.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions, a former Alabama senator whose career has been dogged by questions about race and his commitment to civil rights, did not ease lawmakers' concerns when he was unable to answer questions about the report or its origins during a congressional hearing this past week. Sessions said he was aware of "groups that do have an extraordinary commitment to their racial identity, and some have transformed themselves even into violent activists." He struggled to answer the same question about white extremists.

The AG wants New Orleans to tell federal authorities 48 hours before releasing an undocumented immigrant from jail. Mayor's office says is lacks the power to do so.

It wouldn't be unusual for an attorney general not to have seen such a Federal Bureau of Investigation assessment, which the FBI creates on its own to circulate among law enforcement agencies. But Sessions' exchange with Rep. Karen Bass, D-Calif., presented an uncomfortable moment.

"What worries me about this terribly is that this is that it is a flashback to the past," Bass said after the hearing. She said she was especially concerned after receiving complaints from Black Lives Matter members, who said they were being monitored and harassed by police in her Los Angeles district.





The group rallies after racially charged encounters with police, but it is not mentioned in the FBI's intelligence assessment. Even so, Bass said she worried the report will send a message to police that it's OK to crack down on groups critical of law enforcement.

The FBI does not comment on its intelligence bulletins, which usually are not public. In a statement, the FBI said it cannot and will not open an investigation based solely on a person's race or exercise of free speech rights.






http://american_almanac.tripod.com/hoover.htm


One of the most virulent racists to hold a top government position in this country in the 20th Century was J. Edgar Hoover, the long-time director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Hoover was notorious for his targetting of blacks: civil rights leaders, elected officials, newspaper publishers, or even artists such as the great singer Paul Robeson.

But yet, during Hoover's tenure as head of the FBI, which lasted from 1924 until his death in 1972, there were persistent rumors--both inside and outside the FBI--that Hoover himself was descended from African-Americans.

The recent publication of a book by a descendant of Mississippi slaves, who believes that her family is related to J. Edgar Hoover, has re-opened the issue, and investigations by EIRNS, and other researchers, is shedding new light on the subject of Hoover's racial origins.

Both as a matter of historical record--and more importantly, because the racist legacy of Hoover still lives on in sections of the United States Department of Justice and the FBI--we hereby publish the results of this ongoing investigation.


Hoover's Racist Legacy


On January 27, 1988, Rep. Mervyn Dymally, then the chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus, put into the Congressional Record a sworn affidavit from former FBI special agent Hirsch Friedman, exposing an FBI program called ``Operation Fruehmenschen'' (German for ``primitive'' or ``early man.'') Friedman's affidavit, originally filed in Federal court in Atlanta, and provided to the relevant committees of the House of Representatives, declared:
``The purpose of this policy was the routine investigation without probable cause of prominent elected and appointed black officials in major metropolitan areas throughout the United States. I learned from my conversations with special agents of the FBI that the basis for this policy was the assumption by the FBI that black officials were intellectually and socially incapable of governing major governmental organizations and institutions.''
During Ad Hoc Democratic Platform Hearings June 22, that were facilitated by Lyndon LaRouche's Presidential campaign committee, former Tennessee judge and legislator Ira Murphy testified about Operation Fruehmenschen, which he has studied extensively. Judge Murphy stated that he and others believe that the operation began ``under the late Richard Nixon, and J. Edgar Hoover, and it has continued since that time.'' Judge Murphy said that some of the investigations of Fruehmenschen show that over 300 black and minority officials have been investigated by the FBI and the Justice Department.
Hoover's obsession with blacks was well-known. In 1956, in the wake of the Supreme Court's school desegregation decisions, Hoover fought with Attorney General Brownell over Brownell's proposals for new civil rights laws and enforcement provisions. Hoover declared that ``the specter of racial intermarriage'' was behind the tensions over ``mixed schooling,'' and he attacked the NAACP and other civil rights organizations, while defending and praising the White Citizens Councils in the South. It was also in 1956 that Hoover launched the FBI's COINTELPRO (Counter-Intelligence Program) which targetted civil rights groups and leaders, among others.

During the Kennedy Administration, and especially when Robert Kennedy, as Attorney General, took over the Justice Department and became Hoover's nominal boss, tensions over the racism which pervaded Hoover's FBI, came to the fore under pressure from the new Administration. Agents would mock Robert Kennedy: ``Boys, if you don't work with vigah, you'll be replaced by a niggah.'' In the early '60s, one agent reported, ``in about 90% of the situations in which Bureau personnel referred to Negroes, the word `nigger' was used and always in a very derogatory manner.''[fn1]

As would be expected under the climate set by Hoover, there were absolutely no African-American FBI agents during this time. At the time of Hoover's death in 1972, blacks still constituted less than 1% of FBI special agents.

Hoover's infamous campaign to destroy Dr. Martin Luther King was not the first time he had undertaken such an effort. Author Richard Gid Powers points out the parallel to the campaign, which Hoover coordinated, against Marcus Garvey and the black nationalist movement, from 1919 to 1923.

As early as 1957, Hoover ordered his agents to monitor Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and King's Southern Christian Leadership Conference, when the SCLC began a campaign to register eligible black voters in the South. By the beginning of the 1960s, the FBI was routinely carrying out illegal break-ins of SCLC offices, and wiretapping Rev. King's telephones.

Hoover's obsession with destroying King--or, in Bureau-speak, ``neutralizing'' him--became notorious. In 1964, Hoover sent out a memo to field offices urging them to gather ``information concerning King's personal proclivities ... in order that we may consider using this information at an opportune time in a counterintelligence move to discredit him.'' Hoover also urged agents to use their media contacts to defame King. And FBI Headquarters sent out derogatory reports on King to the White House, the news media, universities, and religious organizations--especially to discourage the latter two groups of institutions from granting any honors or awards to King.

The most outrageous, proven action undertaken by Hoover's FBI against Dr. King was the late-1964 letter to King, purporting to be from a black leader, urging King to kill himself under the blackmail threat that compromising tape recordings of himself would be made public.

Thus, it is no surprise that jubilant cries of ``They got the SOB!'' reverberated through the Atlanta FBI office when the news first came over the radio that Dr. King had been shot in Memphis on April 4, 1968. One former FBI agent recalled another agent shouting ``We finally got the son of a &!@$#!''[fn2]

On March 4, 1968, FBI Headquarters issued a memorandum expanding its COINTELPRO activities against ``Black Nationalist--Hate Groups,'' and warning that Dr. King, among others, could emerge as a ``|`messiah' who could unify and electrify the black nationalist movement.'' The memorandum called for the use of ``imaginative'' techniques, and required a report on accomplishments within 30 days. Exactly 30 days later, on April 4, Dr. King was assassinated. Hoover's cooperation with military intelligence units conducting surveillance and more deadly operations against King has been documented in Dr. William Pepper's book Orders to Kill.

(Such COINTELPRO operations--including efforts to foment violence and assassinations--didn't stop in 1971, as the FBI claims, nor did they stop with Hoover's death in 1972. In late 1973, an FBI memorandum from its New York office called for the ``elimination'' of Lyndon LaRouche, by means of orchestrating FBI assets inside the Communist Party USA; the FBI memorandum opined that, without LaRouche's leadership, the association he had founded ``would fall apart with strife and conflict.'')

Racial Matters: The FBI's Secret File on Black America, 1960-1972

Kenneth O'Reilly


In thousands of civil rights skirmishes, FBI agents stood by passively as protesters were beaten by Ku Klux Klansmen and segregationists. In this searing expose, O'Reilly ( Hoover and the Un-Americans ) argues persuasively that FBI director J. Edgar Hoover's campaign to destroy the civil rights movement made headway because the Kennedy and Johnson administrations tolerated it. With information from declassified FBI files and other documents obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, O'Reilly, who teaches at the University of Alaska, demonstrates that the FBI deployed an army of some 7000 ``ghetto informants'' to spy on black political groups. A zealous FBI campaign helped destroy the Black Panther party; electronic surveillance, break-ins and mail-openings extended to black student groups. Among the 1191 names on the FBI's ``Agitator Index'' was that of Jesse Jackson, who was subjected to wiretaps and other forms of surveillance. Under Nixon, FBI programs directed against blacks continued, according to O'Reilly. This important book complements Herbert Mitgang's Dangerous Dossiers. (June)

It Did Happen Here: Recollections of Political Repression in America




The tales of political repression compiled here belong to this century and are not confined to the McCarthy era. The government's repression of dissent has relied on an arsenal of techniques, from loyalty tests and punitive grand juries to police violence, paid informers and the FBI's secret, illegal Cointelpro operation against leftist groups and union and civil rights leaders. Among the 34 who speak out here are Leonard Peltier, jailed American Indian activist denied the new trial many feel he deserves, and Margaret Randall, feminist author threatened with deportation because she allegedly advocated world communism. Pete Seeger, Benjamin Spock, Scott Nearing and Ring Lardner Jr. add their testimonies. Other victims of state interference include Wobbly organizer Jack Miller; Minoru Yasui, imprisoned in a WW II internment camp because of his Japanese-American ancestry; and civil rights activist Chuck McDew, jailed in Louisiana under an antiquated ``criminal anarchy'' statute. This compelling casebook compiled by a pair of Connecticut freelancers effectively makes the point that the assault on constitutional rights is not an isolated or long-vanished phenomeno

Rumor, Repression, and Racial Politics: How the Harassment of Black Elected Officials Shaped Post-Civil Rights America
by George Derek Musgrove

Historians have exhaustively documented how African Americans gained access to electoral politics in the mid-1960s, but few have scrutinized what happened next, and the small body of work that does consider the aftermath of the civil rights movement is almost entirely limited to the Black Power era. In Rumor, Repression, and Racial Politics, George Derek Musgrove pushes much further, examining black elected officials’ allegations of state and news media repression—what they called “harassment”—to gain new insight into the role of race in U.S. politics between 1965 and 1995.

Drawing from untapped sources, including interviews he conducted with twenty-five sitting and former black members of Congress, Musgrove tells new stories and reinterprets familiar events. His cast of characters includes Julian Bond, Adam Clayton Powell Jr., Alcee Hastings, Ronald Dellums, Richard Arrington, and Marion Barry, as well as white political figures like Newt Gingrich and Jefferson Sessions. Throughout, Musgrove con­nects patterns of surveillance, counterintelligence, and disproportionate investigation of black elected officials to the broader political culture. In so doing, he reveals new aspects of the surveillance state of the late 1960s, the rise of adversary journalism and good government reforms in the wake of Watergate, the official corruption crackdown of the 1980s, and the allure of conspiracy theory to African Americans seeking to understand the harass­ment of their elected leadership.

Moving past the old debate about whether there was a conscious conspiracy against black officials, Musgrove explores how the perception of harassment shaped black political thought in the post–civil rights era. The result is a field-defining work by a major new intellectual voice.

Lincoln’s spy: How Pinkerton laid the foundation for the CIA and FBI
Allan Pinkerton, the grandaddy of American private eyes, has a “true detective” story made for the binge-watch era

The organized investigation of suspicious behaviors has evolved in two directions. One is in the case of detective work, dealing with activities that endanger individual citizens. The other, integrally linked avenue is in intelligence, investigating threats to the state. Flowing out of the same font, the modern incarnation of these entwined investigative avenues are largely the creation of two people. In Europe, Eugene-Francois Vidocq may be considered the godfather of the former criminal turned secret agent who is largely responsible for the development of the modern, entwined arts of intelligence-gathering and criminal investigation. But stateside, his parallel, no less influential, was Lincoln’s spy master during the Civil War, Allan Pinkerton.
Born to an impoverished family in Glasgow in 1819, Pinkerton’s policeman father died early, and the young son was forced to work. While earning his living as a cooper, he grew interested in a pro-democratic movement called Chartism, which was keenly watched by British authorities. In danger of arrest for this political activity, he escaped Scotland and moved to the United States, where he continued to work as a cooper near Chicago. Part of his early legend was burnished by the story that, while one day felling trees for wood to make his barrels on a small island, he came upon a group of counterfeiters, associated with a renowned gang called the Banditti of the Prairie, who were meeting there, thinking that they were alone. He was able to single-handedly apprehend them and bring them to the the mainland in custody. He developed a reputation among the locals as an upright citizen and was made deputy sheriff. He was promoted in 1846 and worked as a sheriff based in Chicago. But sensing an opportunity in the private sector, Pinkerton stepped down from the official police force to found a private detective agency, along with a lawyer partner, Edward Rucker. This was not the first private detective agency (recall the Vidocq had founded one in 1833), but it would become the best-known and most influential.

IRS agent who was accused of sexual assault of woman at gunpoint remains on the job

The frantic call for help came from a college student who worked as a summer intern. She’d gone for drinks at a local bar with a co-worker. A celebratory night took a dark turn when she got into his car for a ride to the train station.
“Caller is a female, says he put a gun in her mouth and sexually assaulted her,” the 911 dispatcher announced over the Boston police radio system just after 10:30 p.m. July 26, directing officers to South Station.

“We’ve got the victim,” an officer radioed back after locating the 21-year-old woman at a train terminal, according to audio of the transmissions recorded by Broadcastify. “I got the suspect’s name. It’s Jamie Clarke . . . he’s an investigator with the IRS.”

Four months later, James R. Clarke — a special agent in the Internal Revenue Service’s criminal investigation office in Boston — has not been charged with any crimes and has continued to work on criminal investigations

SEE IT: Cops framed pair in shocking two-for-one DWI bust, Bronx couple claims
BY SHAYNA JACOBS
NEW YORK DAILY NEWS Sunday, November 19, 2017, 9:33 PM

It was a dubious DWI doubleheader — without the vehicle even moving — and now the Bronx cops who handcuffed a home health care aide and her boyfriend are the ones under investigation.

Rosa Del Valle and Frank Menard were busted for drunken driving just minutes apart in the same SUV, with the couple charging they were set up by two officers more intent on overtime than objectivity.

“They don’t understand the damage they caused,” Menard, 42, told the Daily News about the Feb. 28 arrests. “(They’re) not fit for real crime fighting and real justice.”

The shocking two-for-one DWI busts sparked separate probes by the NYPD’s Internal Affairs Bureau and the Bronx district attorney’s Public Integrity Bureau, The News has learned.

The officers approached the couple around 2:30 a.m. as they sat inside a double-parked car, and first arrested Menard — whose insistence that he was not drinking at all that night was ignored.

The cops then turned their attention to Del Valle, 53, who was sitting in the passenger seat of the 2003 Ford Expedition outside her apartment on E. 190th St.

Pentagon claims list of information exempt from FOIA is exempt from FOIA
DOD redacts portions of its declassification guide on grounds they’re “law enforcement techniques”

Earlier this year, Emma Best filed a Freedom of Information Act request for a copy of the Department of Defense’s most recent declassification guide, with the goal of better understanding what the Pentagon believes can or can’t be released to the public. Just this week, the guide came in …



but with one notable omission: the entire section on what the Pentagon believes can or can’t be released to the public.



The Pentagon exempted their list of information that’s exempt from FOIA under FOIA’s b(7)e exemption, which covers:

Information that would disclose techniques and procedures for law enforcement investigations or prosecutions, or would disclose guidelines for law enforcement investigations or prosecutions if such disclosure could reasonably be expected to risk circumvention of the law.
The Pentagon did not offer any explanation for their rather bold claim that knowing what can be withheld under FOIA would allow people to circumvent the DOD’s law enforcement duties.

While this kind of recursive redaction can be maddening to a requester, this is far from an isolated incident; the Federal Election Commission once tried to withhold its b(5) exemption guidelines under the b(5) exemption (which, as it turned out, had already been publicly posted on their website), and the Central Intelligence Agency has a list of 126 reasons why it can classify information that is - you guessed it - classified.



Best is appealing their response. In the meantime, you can read the declassification guide embedded below or on the request page.

Hey Joe, Where You Going With That Pentagon in Your Hands?
BY NORMAN SOLOMON

By all accounts, the frontrunner to be Joe Biden’s pick for Secretary of Defense is Michèle Flournoy. It’s a prospect that should do more than set off alarm bells — it should be understood as a scenario for the president-elect to stick his middle fingers in the eyes of Americans who are fed up with endless war and ongoing militarism.
Warning and petitioning Biden to dissuade him from a Flournoy nomination probably have scant chances of success. But if Biden puts her name forward, activists should quickly launch an all-out effort to block Senate confirmation.
As the Biden administration takes office, progressives have an opportunity to affirm and amplify the position that Martin Luther King Jr. boldly articulated when he insisted that “I never intend to adjust myself to the madness of militarism.” In the present day, the pernicious and lucrative aspects of that madness are personified in the favorite to be Biden’s Defense Secretary.
A few days ago, the longtime Defense analysts Winslow Wheeler and Pierre Sprey published a detailed analysis under the headline “Should Michèle Flournoy Be Secretary of Defense?” The well-documented answer: No.
Citing “extensive defense industry ties,” Wheeler and Sprey provided an overview of Flournoy’s revolving-door career. When she wasn’t

Trump’s Massive, Lawless, and Immoral Legacy to Our Country Will Continue Unless …
BY RALPH NADER


Trump has gotten away with almost everything throughout his bankruptcy-driven business career and his corrupt, cruel, and costly political years in the White House. Things changed on November 3, when he was retired by the voters.
Refusing to concede, however, so as to prolong his crazed fantasies, Trump is distracting the mass media from his looting of the Executive Branch departments to the advantage of big business bosses and his failing family enterprises. Expect this to continue until January 20, 2021. (See my op-ed titled: “If Trump loses, expect him to exact revenge on his way out” Boston Globe, August 10, 2020).
Trump and his cronies will get away with their crime sprees unless Joe Biden has a Justice Department team that will follow the law and prosecute any government official who broke the law. In 2009, Barack Obama let law-breaking Wall Streeters and the Bush/Cheney war criminals become successful fugitives from justice.
Trump has inflicted lasting damage to our social morality and to the rule of law. Unfortunately, the destructive and uncontrollable momentum unleashed by Trump will not be easily reversed.
Trump’s unabashed verbal and physical abuses of women were widely publicized. Consider the repulsive example Trump sets for young boys

and young men who see the president getting away with menacing machismo.
Trump boasts about paying very little income taxes. With declining corporate tax compliance in the country, exacerbated by his starving of the IRS enfo

Glenn Greenwald And Darren Beattie: New Evidence Of FBI creating January 6 Capitol Riot



Posted By Tim Hains
On Date October 1, 2021
When former Trump speechwriter Darren Beattie reported in June that there was evidence suggesting FBI foreknowledge of the January 6 protest at the Capitol, if not active involvement, the corporate media mocked him and others who took it seriously for being deranged conspiracy theories. But now, the New York Times just reported that the FBI had at least one informant at the Capitol on that day. On the latest SYSTEM UPDATE, Glenn Greenwald speaks to Beattie about what do know now about involvement by the FBI and other law enforcement agencies. They also discuss whether the concept of "right" and "left" are changing radically.

McKayla Maroney: FBI made 'entirely false claims about what I said'
By Tierney Sneed, CNN




Here's the summary for Maine straight from Garland:

Garland Climatology for September, 2021 (36 year averages in parentheses): 
average max:  72.6F (70.4F) 
average min:   54.6F (51.3F) 
extreme max:  81F 
extreme min:  45F 
total precipitation:   14.72 in. (4.12 in.) 
total snowfall:  0.0 in. (0.0 in.) 
 
 
September was yet another warmer than usual month, especially with regards to the night-time low temperatures.  We didn’t have many really warm summer-like days, mainly because we had quite a few low pressure systems that tended to bring a lot of clouds and humidity into the region.  But part of that humid air was right from the tropics and so any rain that fell tended to be quite a lot and it all added up to an extraordinary rain-fall total for the month that was over ten and a half inches more than usual!!  The preponderance of humid tropical air also helped keep the night-time temperatures noticeably warmer than usual whenever it spread over the region and it more than made up for the few instances of cooler and drier air from Canada that tended to become more frequent toward the end of the month.  But even that air was relatively mild for the season since most of Canada remained much warmer than usual for September.  Our total heating degrees were only 42 compared with the average of 125 for a more typical September.  In fact, it was even less than the 50 heating degrees of last year which was also a warmer than usual month.

POLICE SEXUAL MISCONDUCT
1
Abstract
Police sexual misconduct is often considered a hidden crime that routinely goes
unreported. The current study provides an empirical data on cases of sex-related police crime at law enforcement agencies across the United States. The study identifies and describes incidents where sworn law enforcement officers were arrested for one or more sex-related crimes through a quantitative content analysis of published newspaper articles and court records. The primary news information source was the Google News search engine using 48 automated Google Alerts. Data are analyzed on 548 arrest cases in the years 2005-2007 of 398 officers employed by 328 nonfederal law enforcement agencies located in 265 counties and independent cities in 43 states and the District of Columbia. Findings indicate that police sexual misconduct includes serious forms of sex-related crime and that victims of sex-related police crime are typically younger than 18 years of age.
