Scott Bloch runs the Office of Special Counsel, an agency charged with protecting government whistleblowers and enforcing […]
And here is the very reason that I hate cell phones: Federal officials are routinely asking courts to order cellphone companies to furnish real-time tracking data so they can pinpoint the whereabouts of drug traffickers, fugitives and other criminal suspects, according to judges and industry lawyers.

They don’t even think our troops deserve a couple hours of their time on the Senate floor. Why? To protect the most hated President in the history of the United States. This should mean a new war if the Democrats care about Iraq. Throw the “bi-partisan” bullshit out the window. The Democrats are in power […]
At least we admit it now: U.S. military officers offered their condolences on Monday to an Iraqi family south of Baghdad in a rare admission of error after killing two innocent Iraqis in an airstrike last Tuesday. A U.S. military statement released on January 31 said two “insurgents” out of a four-man team were killed […]
