Hillary Clinton Could Face Criminal Indictment
by Sarah Westwood. A former U.S. attorney thinks Hillary Clinton could face a criminal indictment from the FBI within the next 60 days. Joe DiGenova, a Republican U.S. attorney appointed by President Reagan, said Clinton's "biggest problem right now" is the open FBI investigation into the contents of her private emails. "They have reached a critical ... MOREFBI Admits Police Violence Tracking System Is A Travesty
by T.C. Sottek. The Washington Post reported today that the Federal Bureau of Investigation plans to replace its
inadequate system for tracking police violence by 2017; an FBI official
is calling it a "travesty." "We are responding to a real human outcry,"
FBI assistant director Stephen L. Morris told the Post. "People
want to know what police are doing, and ... MOREThe Federal Government's Illegal Registry Of Gun Owners
by Joshua Krause. I remember after the Sandy Hook shooting, when states like New York and Connecticut passed laws that would force their gun owning residents to register some of their firearms. At the time I thought that was a little absurd. Not knowing any better, I just assumed that the government already knew exactly what kinds of firearms ... MOREPolice Prosecutions Have Increased, But Not Convictions
by Scott Shackford. I don't know that I would necessarily call it "good news" that we're
seeing more police officers facing actual charges and trials for fatal
shootings. Given, though, that there's been a notable increase
in the number of people killed by police in recent years, a doubling in
the frequency by which officers face trial in 2015 ... MOREChris Cillizza: Just When You Thought The E-Mail Story Couldn’t Get Worse For Hillary Clinton …
Death by a thousand cuts. After several weeks of relative dormancy, the story of Hillary Clinton's private e-mail server surged back into the news Tuesday night, with a trio of stories that suggest things are going to get worse before (or perhaps if) they get better for the former secretary of state's 2016 campaign. Here's what we learned: ... MOREFBI Refuses To Cooperate In Clinton Email Server Probe
by Stephen Dinan. More government stonewalling. The FBI refused to cooperate Monday with a court-ordered inquiry into former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s email server, telling the State Department
that they won’t even confirm they are investigating the matter
themselves, much less willing to tell the rest of the government ... MOREFBI Investiges Whether Hillary Breached The Espionage Act
by Catherine Herridge & Pamela Brown. The latest spy-thriller-worthy plot point in the ongoing real-life drama
over Hillary Clinton's exclusive use of a privately run email account
comes via Fox News, which reports, via an anonymous source, that: An FBI "A-team" is leading the "extremely serious" investigation into
Hillary Clinton's server and ... MOREAndrew Napolitano: Hillary Lies Again
It seems the truth is seldom her friend. In a column I wrote in early July, based on research by my colleagues
and my own analysis of government documents and eyewitness statements, I
argued that in 2011 and 2012 then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton
waged a secret war on the governments of Libya and Syria, with the
approval of President ... MOREWe Are All Terror Suspects Under The FBI’s Program
by Thomas S. Neuberger. What Big Brother is looking for. If you engage in any of the following activities, you could be on a terrorism watch list: Make suspicious comments regarding anti‑US, radical theology, vague or cryptic warnings that suggest or appear to endorse the use of violence in support of a cause. Make unusual comments ... MOREThe FBI Wants The Key to Your Data: Is Gov't-Resistant Encryption An Intolerable Threat To Public Safety?
by Jacob Sullum. Testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee last week, FBI Director James Comey argued that data should never be transmitted or stored in a way that frustrates government snooping. Comey warned that encryption is a boon to criminals and therefore must be designed so that law enforcement agencies can decode it ... MORE
Why Do Media Still Take FBI Terror Warnings Seriously?
by Adam Johnson. Zero for 40 at predicting attacks. On Monday, several mainstream media outlets repeated the latest press release
by the FBI that country was under a new “heightened terror alert” from
“ISIL-inspired attacks” “leading up to the July 4th weekend.” One of the
more sensational outlets, CNN, led with the breathless warning on ... MOREGiving Government 'Backdoor' Access To Encrypted Data Threatens Both Personal Privacy And National Security
How domestic spying makes us less safe. The "Crypto Wars" are here again, which means federal officials are doing all they can to limit the technological tools that keep our personal data secure. President Obama and leaders from the National Security Agency (NSA), FBI, and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) have been pressuring ... MOREDaniel Rivero: The FBI Convicted This Man Using Hair Analysis. Now We Know The Truth. It Was A Dog’s Hair.
What if the government wanted you convicted? For a while now, thanks in part to the reporting of the Washington
Post’s Spencer Hsu, it’s been known that something was not quite right
with the FBI’s hair forensics unit in the past. But only but only
recently has the FBI admitted that failings within the unit led to hundreds, maybe thousands ... MOREAndrew Napolitano: Not Your Grandfather's FBI
Official lies and falsifications that kill innocents. Does the FBI manifest fidelity, bravery and integrity, or does it cut constitutional corners in order to incriminate? Can the FBI cut the cable television lines to your house and then show up pretending to be the cable guy and install listening devices? Can FBI agents and technicians testify falsely ... MOREFBI Lies May Have Led To Execution of 14 Innocent People
The Washington Post reports: The Justice Department and FBI have formally acknowledged that nearly every examiner in an elite FBI forensic unit gave flawed testimony in almost all trials in which they offered evidence against criminal defendants over more than a two-decade period before 2000. Of 28 examiners with the FBI Laboratory’s … MOREJohn W. Whitehead: Creepy, Calculating and Controlling
All of the ways Big Brother is watching you. None of us are perfect. All of us bend the rules occasionally. Even before the age of overcriminalization, when the most upstanding citizen could be counted on to break at least three laws a day without knowing it, most of us have knowingly flouted the law from time to time. Today, however, ... MORE
