Obama Admin Got NSA Restrictions Lifted by FISA Court in 2011

And it was done to allow them to do pricisely what the President claimed in press conferences and on Jay Leno's show that they were not doing. Somehow, when we reported on this weeks ago, we tried to explain to people that he was lying and obfuscating. Looks like the Washington Post might be getting the message to a few more people now. Good for them.

The Liberty Conspiracy Website Has Been Banned in China

Thanks to fellow Conspirator Stephen Smith, who found out firsthand, we can give you some of the details. Evidently, this site has been banned by the Chinese government or certain ISPs. We are sure we're one of thousands or perhaps millions that have been targeted and locked away from inquisitive eyes in that bastion of liberty, the "People's Republic". But while the site has been banned, the PODCASTS are still findable. They sneak through somehow, perhaps because they are carried on other platforms like Itunes and Podomatic. So while Chinese people who are inquisitive about free markets and libertarian philosophy can't read these entries, they can still hear our audio programs and find our audio library!

As Snowden Knew, As Greenwald Told Us, NSA Read Thousands of E-Mails, and Feinstein Lied about It

Here's the article from the AP that discusses the "mistake". Recall that the Bush Admin told us that the FISA courts were just issuing warrants to allow surveillance of foreign phone calls. Yet this e-mail collection program has been going on for years, clearly showing how the Bush Admin lied about it. This article also proves that senator Dianne Feinstein also lied when she said she had no knowledge of any NSA program that was reading the e-mails of Americans.

Here is Glenn Greenwald, in video on Democracy Now, telling people Feinstein was lying. He said these words in June of 2013.

Bradley Manning Sentenced to 35 Years

He was the only one in that military court who upheld his oath to defend the US Constitution. He was the only one who fulfilled his promise to comform to the Geneva Accords by reporting war crimes. He had an obligation to report, and he did. His superiors did nothing. He went public, showing Americans the crimes the US military was committing in Iraq. Very few people paid any attention.

He is a hero, not a criminal. Both morally and legally, Bradley Manning did the right thing. This action by the "court" indicates how far astray the US government is from any form of legality.

Before Killed, Michael Hastings Was Reportedly Ready to Expose CIA Director John Brennan

Recall that Brennan was the architect and chief 'counsel' for Obama's murderous drone campaign (which still continues, killing 49 in Yemen in the last eleven days).

US Drug Enforcement Getting Spy Info on US Citizens, Trying to Cover It Up

Anyone surprised? So let's see. The so-called "war on drugs" is anti-constitutional and interferes with private association/contract. The spying programs run in contravention of the 4th Amendment and are being done by anti-constitutional agencies within the Executive Branch.

But this news is getting very little coverage.

Probably too many episodes of "The Bachelor" for people to catch up with on their DVRs.

And the so-called "reporters" are too busy trying to get into dinners at the White House.

Snowden Granted Asylum by Russian Government

The White House Press Secretary's response is that Mr. Snowden is "not a whistleblower", but a criminal. As Orwell said: "In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act."

Richmond, VA Threatens to Use Eminent Domain to Take Foreclosed Homes

In no way is there a government part to be played in this system of buyig a home, but since the politicians can't stop themselves, they prepare to do what libertarians expected they eventually would, use the government to take more private property.

Amash Amendment to Defund NSA Spying Program Fails in DC House.

It wasn't even a full-blown defunding, either, just one part of the massive leviathan that is the NSA, yet the Obamites killed it, with help from the McCain crowd. Here's some background info from a few days ago, to let you know what the bill was about:

Looks Like Snowden May Stay in Russia

Despite the Russian government exhibiting corruption and rights-violations on numerous occasions since the fall of the Berlin Wall, this is a good sign for this man's future. Nice to see he might have a place to stay away from the US hounds.

NSA Official Admits: We Spy on Friends of Friends of Friends of Friends

But remember, the issue isn't the wrongdoing of the federal government, it's about the guy who revealed their wrongdoing. Right? Pay no attention to the real issue, just watch the bouncing ball.
