Yet another example of the unimaginable cesspool of interagency - TopicsExpress



          

Yet another example of the unimaginable cesspool of interagency corruption and judicial and political efforts to cover it up and just keep perpetuating the atrocities now exposed monetizing, manipulating, spying on, lying to, lying about, exploiting, and enslaving, nearly every government, economy, military person, taxpayer, man, woman, and child on the planet. Had enough to take a stand yet, or hoping it will just go away by itself?! If my own children and I didnt uncover this same cesspool of lies and cover ups in the Family Court corruption now exposed, I never would have researched the rest or believed it myself. Marsha Coleman-Adebayo was a Senior Policy Analyst in the Office of the Administrator at the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). In South Africa she brought to the attention of the EPA the dangerous conditions an American company was exposing African workers to who were mining vanadium, a dangerous substance. Instead of fixing the problem, Ms. Coleman-Adebayo was removed from her position. Glenn Walp and Steven L. Doran were hired to investigate allegations of fraud at the University of Californias Los Alamos National Laboratory. They were fired after they exposed breeches of security as well as fraud and mismanagement to the Department of Energy. Robert J. McCarthy served as Field Solicitor for the U.S. Department of the Interior and as General Counsel, U.S. Section, International Boundary and Water Commission. He exposed the Interior Department’s mismanagement of $3.5 billion in Indian trust resources, then in 2009, McCarthy disclosed massive fraud, waste and abuse by the IBWC, that imperiled the health and safety of millions of people on both sides of the U.S.- Mexico border and seriously damaged the border ecosystem. In both cases he was forced from government service. His scholarly publications have revealed the fatal flaws in whistleblower protection laws now routinely violated and ignored (just as so many victims have exposed and decried in the Family Courts), as well as the need for radical reform of specific government agencies. Michael Paul a former senior technical analyst of the Judicial Council of California, Administrative Office of the Courts publicly disclosed that tens of millions of dollars worth of overpriced construction work was being steered to unlicensed contractors in a bid rigging scheme that involved his employer and public funds. The California Administrative Office of the Courts then demoted Mr. Paul and extended the terms of the underlying contracts, contracts that are deemed void under the California Business & Professions Code. In response, Mr. Paul filed a taxpayer lawsuit in San Francisco Superior Court to recover all of the false claims paid and to enjoin the California Administrative Office of the Courts from wasting taxpayer funds. He was promptly fired in violation of the California False Claims Act, the California Whistleblower Protection Act and the California Labor Code. Katharine Gun, who was raised in Taiwan, worked as a Mandarin Chinese-to-English translator for GCHQ. On 31 January 2003, she received an e-mail from a USA National Security Agency official named Frank Koza. This email requested aid in a secret and illegal operation to bug the United Nations offices of six nations: Angola, Bulgaria, Cameroon, Chile, Guinea, and Pakistan. Gun then leaked information to the press concerning this and other illegal activities by the United States and the United Kingdom. Gun was charged with an offence under section 1 of the Official Secrets Act 1989. After all attempts to threaten and silence Ms. Gun proved ineffectual her case finally came to trial and was immediately dropped within half an hour when the prosecution declined to offer evidence since the day before the trial, Guns defense team had asked the government for any records of advice about the legality of the war that it had received during the run-up to the Iraq war. A full trial would have exposed any such documents to public scrutiny as the defense were expected to argue that trying to stop an illegal act (that of an illegal war of aggression) trumped Guns obligations under the Official Secrets Act 1989. The case was dropped so that such documents would remain secret and hidden from the public. Anthony Russo and Daniel Ellsberg leaked the Pentagon Papers, a secret account of the Vietnam War and its pretexts to The New York Times, which revealed endemic practices of deception which went all the way to the Whitehouse. These documents demonstrated, among other things, that the Johnson Administration had systematically lied, not only to the public but also to Congress. John Mitchell, Nixons Attorney General, almost immediately issued a telegram to the Times ordering that it halt publication. The Times refused, and the government brought suit against it to create expensive litigation. An appellate court ordered that the Times temporarily halt further publication. This was the first time the federal government was able to restrain the publication of a major newspaper since the presidency of Abraham Lincoln during the U.S. Civil War. The U.S. Supreme Court eventually overturned that outrageous abuse of power and attempted government cover up in the now famous New York Times Co. v. United States ruling but only after very expensive and prolonged litigation. On June 28, 1971, two days before a Supreme Court ruling saying that another federal judge had previously ruled incorrectly about the right of the New York Times to publish the Pentagon Papers, Ellsberg publicly surrendered to the United States Attorneys Office for the District of Massachusetts in Boston. Ellsberg said “I felt that as an American citizen, as a responsible citizen, I could no longer cooperate in concealing this information from the American public. I did this clearly at my own jeopardy and I am prepared to answer to all the consequences of this decision.” He and Russo faced charges under the Espionage Act of 1917 and other charges including theft and conspiracy, carrying a total maximum sentence of 115 years. Evidence of illegal wiretapping against Ellsberg was then revealed in court. The FBI had recorded numerous conversations between Morton Halperin and Ellsberg without a court order, and furthermore the prosecution had failed to share this evidence with the defense. Due to the gross governmental misconduct and illegal evidence gathering, and the defense by Leonard Boudin and Harvard Law School professor Charles Nesson, Judge Byrne dismissed all charges against Ellsberg and Russo on May 11, 1973 after the government claimed it had mysteriously “lost” the records of wiretapping against Ellsberg. And if you think the government is above such practices, in his autobiography, Liddy describes an Ellsberg neutralization proposal originating from Howard Hunt, which involved drugging Ellsberg with LSD, by dissolving it in his soup, at a fund-raising dinner in Washington in order to have Ellsberg incoherent by the time he was to speak and thus make him appear a near burnt-out drug case and discredit him. The plot involved waiters from the Miami Cuban community. According to Liddy, when the plan was finally approved, there was no longer enough lead time to get the Cuban waiters up from their Miami hotels and into place in the Washington Hotel where the dinner was to take place and the plan was put into abeyance pending another opportunity. Reflecting on his time in government, Ellsberg has said the following, based on his extensive access to classified material: The public is lied to every day by the President, by his spokespeople, by his officers, and there is no end to the cover ups by dozens of agencies.
