“The hidden consensus amongst the U.S. political elite on matters of national security is a matter worthy of detailed investigation and reporting. So is their consensus on the failed drug war, mass incarcerations, asset forfeiture and many other matters. What are we to make of the fact that Senator Feinstein’s husband, Richard C. Blum, is heavily invested in EG&G Technical Services – a leading contractor to the federal defense and intelligence sectors? Or that congressman Mike Rogers (R-MI), chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, has received almost half a million dollars in campaign contributions from defense contractors – despite having no serious challengers?”
