    Valerie Caproni, FBI general counsel, told the U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee her agency needed the power to issue what are known as administrative subpoenas to get information quickly about terrorist plots and the activities of foreign (…)

    Proposed legislation would compel people to spy on their family members and neighbors, forcing all Americans to become foot soldiers in the war on drugs.
    Neighbors spying on neighbors? Mothers forced to turn in their sons or daughters? These are images straight out of George Orwell’s 1984, or a remote totalitarian state. We don’t associate them with the land of the free and the home of the brave, but that doesn’t mean they couldn’t happen here. A senior congressman, James Sensenbrenner (…)

    Ms. Coulter is not a stranger to controversy. She has been booed at several events and even an attempted pie throwing incident occurred.
    What happened though, on May 3rd has prompted Global News Matrix to take it a step further.
    Ajai Raj asked a question..a crude question that did not warrant an answer. He knew he would be asked to leave the event. What happened next in our (…)

    Bush Mendacity Will Shock Historians Bill Gallagher May 10, 2005 Detroit - When historians write about our times, they’ll shake their heads and wonder how so many people could believe so many lies for so long. They might actually write two parallel books - one describing the cascading lies and deceptions George W. Bush and the Republicans sold and the other telling the truth. We’re told, in effect, that trampling on civil liberties and eroding freedom are a sure way to protect us from (…)

    An Economic 9-11?
    An interesting story appeared briefly a few days ago. Two men were arrested with three trillion (with a "t") in fake US Federal Reserve Negotiable Certificates, sometimes called "bearer bonds". What is interesting about the story is how the US Mainstream media pretty much ignored the whole thing.
