Porn, wine and kazoos on IRS worker charge cards

Posted on by

“The IRS allows some of its 90,000 employees to use company charge cards to buy work-related items, such as office supplies.  However, employees made a host of ‘improper’ purchases — ranging from a dinner averaging $140 per person to Thomas the Tank Engine rubber wristbands. The inspector general said the IRS has been negligent when it comes to catching employees who circumvent $3,000 caps on transactions, by splitting purchases into several transactions.   The agency also doesn’t have a good record at turning off credit cards as soon as employees depart or retire.”

The Trick is to Suspend the Constitution Without Admitting It

Posted on by

“The executive branch has routinely invoked the so-called PATRIOT act, and the Authorization for Use of Military Force to supposedly permit the President and his subordinates to wage war anywhere on the face of the earth, carry out all-encompassing electronic surveillance of the entire population, and even carry out summary executions of anyone – including U.S. citizens – deemed to be enemies of the state. Pakistan endured a similar period of executive rule under the reign of military dictator Pervez Musharraf between 1999 and 2008. The Pakistani government is preparing to put Musharraf on trial for treason for suspending that country’s constitution.”

Heated exchange after Baton Rouge cop pulls over fellow officer driving recklessly

Posted on by

“In the video, off-duty BRPD officer David Stewart pulls over a swerving white pickup truck that he says was doing more than twice the 45 mph speed limit. The stop happened on Juban Road in Livingston Parish.  Stewart said he pulled the vehicle over and contacted the Livingston Parish Sheriff’s department because he thought the driver may be impaired or having a ‘road rage’ fit. However, after the driver, Cpl. Brian Harrison, identified himself as a Baton Rouge police officer, the dash-mounted camera in Stewart’s vehicle then captured a heated 4-minute exchange between the two men.”

Alabama man sentenced to prison for tweeting ‘let’s kill the president’

Posted on by

“U.S. District Judge C. Lynwood Smith Jr. sentenced 26-year-old Jarvis Britton of Birmingham to one year in prison for threatening the life of Obama. He must serve three years on probation after finishing the prison term.  Britton pleaded guilty in March to threatening to kill, kidnap or inflict bodily harm on the president by tweeting the message, ‘Let’s kill the president. F.E.A.R.,’ in September. He received a warning from the Secret Service in June, but continued to make the threats. ‘Serious question? If you knew about a terrorist group planning to kill the president, would you tell? I kinda wanna see if they can! F.E.A.R,’ he tweeted on September 19, 2012.”

The top secret rules that allow NSA to use US data without a warrant

Posted on by

“Top secret documents submitted to the court that oversees surveillance by US intelligence agencies show the judges have signed off on broad orders which allow the NSA to make use of information ‘inadvertently’ collected from domestic US communications without a warrant.  The previously revealed bulk collection of domestic call records takes place under rolling court orders issued on the basis of a legal interpretation of a different authority, section 215 of the Patriot Act.  On Thursday, two US congressmen introduced a bill compelling the Obama administration to declassify the secret legal justifications for NSA surveillance.”

Xerxes Is On The Move

Posted on by

“At a cost of ‘between $60 million to $100 million,’ ‘President Obama goes to sub-Saharan Africa this month,’ reports the usually adoring Washington Post. A good part of the comitatus—’the sprawling apparatus that encompasses … the emperor’s household and its personnel’—is going along for the ride.  Military cargo planes will airlift in 56 support vehicles, including 14 limousines and three trucks loaded with sheets of bulletproof glass to cover the windows of the hotels where the first family will stay. Fighter jets will fly in shifts, giving 24-hour coverage over the president’s airspace, so they can intervene quickly if an errant plane gets too close.”

Freeloaders

“The president’s family descended on Northern Ireland to enjoy a lavish holiday in a five-star hotel, where just their room (one of 30 they have commandeered) goes for a cool $3,300 dollars per night. The first family’s two-day vacation to Northern Ireland is estimated to cost our families some $5.2 million. Not many working American families can afford a vacation at all, but they have no choice but chip in for the Obama family’s fun and games.  The first class holiday for the first family is said to be the ‘biggest security operation ever mounted in Northern Ireland’ — and in a region that not long ago was mired in brutal warfare and terrorism that is saying quite a bit!”

Responding to Scandals and Corruption, the IRS Rewards Itself with Giant Bonuses

Posted on by

“What do you do if you’re part of a government bureaucracy that has been caught red-handed engaged in sleazy, corrupt, and (almost surely) illegal targeting of Americans for their political beliefs? But before you answer, keep in mind that your bureaucracy also has been exposed for wasting huge amounts of money at lavish conferences. What’s the ideal way of dealing with the fallout from that scandal as well? The answer is simple. Even though you and your pals already are paid more than the peasants in the private sector, give yourself and your cronies giant bonuses!”

Perjury as a State Privilege

Posted on by

“Every year, hundreds of U.S. citizens are threatened with prosecution for lying to federal agents. Former Major League baseball star Roger Clemens was threatened with a prison term over supposedly lying to Congress over his alleged steroid use. Lying to federal investigators or during Congressional testimony is thus treated as a grave criminal offense – unless, apparently, it is done by the Director of National Intelligence. Clapper’s reply was: ‘No, sir’ – a statement that is now known to be a direct, conscious lie, as he subsequently admitted. If this were a society of laws, Clapper would be prosecuted for perjury. Then again, in such a society the NSA wouldn’t exist.”
