Judicial Watch: IRS Produces Recovered Lerner Emails JULY 28, 2015

Judicial Watch: IRS Produces Recovered Lerner Emails

JULY 28, 2015

(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch released 906 pages of newly recovered Lois Lerner emails from the IRS that are believed to recently have been recovered by the IRS’ internal watchdog – the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA).  The IRS released the emails under a court order by U.S. District Court Judge Emmet Sullivan.  The new documents show that Lois Lerner and other top officials in the Exempt Organizations Unit of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), including soon-to-be Acting IRS Commissioner Steve Miller, closely monitored and approved the controversial handling of tax-exempt applications by Tea Party organizations.  The documents also show that at least one group received an inquiry from the IRS in order to buy time and keep the organization from contacting Congress.
At July 1, 2015, status conference, Judge Sullivan ordered the IRS to begin producing, every week, the nearly 1,800 newly recovered Lois Lerner emails responsive to Judicial Watch’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.   Despite the court order, the IRS did not produce any Lois Lerner emails until July 15.  The IRS also failed to provide Judicial Watch a status report of the Lois Lerner email production issues, as also ordered by Judge Sullivan.  Last week, Judge Sullivan ordered sua sponte the parties to appear for a status hearing for tomorrow (July 29) shortly after Judicial Watch raised concerns about the IRS’ failure to comply with his orders to release the newly discovered Lerner emails and status updates on its production of previously “missing” documents.
The developments come in Judicial Watch’s FOIA lawsuit seeking documents about the Obama IRS’ targeting and harassment of Tea Party and conservative opponents of President Obama (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. Internal Revenue Service (No. 1:13-cv-01559)).  Judicial Watch’s litigation forced the IRS first to admit that Lerner’s emails were supposedly missing and, then, that the emails were on IRS’ back-up systems.
The documents show that Exempt Organizations Director Lois Lerner, sent a November 3, 2011, email documenting her concerns about the failure to process applications in a timely manner:

I’m getting a little nervous about the amount we have on our plate and how we are handling. I know everyone is working hard and juggling, but I am wondering whether the juggling decisions are being made holistically enough. We have only so many resources and things will probably get worse going forward. I worry that decisions about how to use the resources are being made without all the information…Something that may not seem important in Cincinnati, may be crucial in DC. Similarly, DC may be prioritizing its work based on what is sitting in DC when something sitting in Cincinnati should be the focus of DC work.

IRS Program Manager Cindy Thomas of the Cincinnati Exempt Organization office replied to Lerner a few hours later with an email detailing the pressure caused by the IRS’ Washington headquarters failure to move on the “advocacy cases.”  Thomas warned of litigation and admitted that she authorized a letter for more information that was sent to one of the complaining groups to keep it from contacting Congress:

The backlog of work involves advocacy organizations. As of about a month ago, there were 161 of these cases sitting idle and we probably have more by now. The control dates for these cases go back to the end of 2009 and all through 2010. We’ve been waiting for EO in D.C. to get us a guidance/reference document with lessons learned from the c4 and c3 cases they worked and coordinated with Judy Kindell and Counsel. We’re getting calls from POAs wanting to know who has put the halt on working these cases and threatening to contact their Congressional offices.  Just today, I instructed one of my managers to get an additional information letter out to one of these organizations — if nothing else to buy time so he didn’t contact his Congressional Office.  Soon, we’re going to start getting TAO’s [Taxpayer Assistance Orders] from TAS [Taxpayer Advocate Service] or declaratory judgment cases filed —- then, I guess everyone will decide its time to start moving the cases when we have mounds of additional paperwork to process along with the cases (adding even more work for us to do).

Another IRS lawyer responded to Lerner’s email with an admission that IRS’ D.C. headquarters legal staff had hundreds of cases backlogged.  Michael Seto, who headed the Exempt Organization Technical Unit, acknowledged to Lerner on November 9, 2011, that there were 446 application cases open beginning of fiscal year 2012, with many open for more than two years.
The emails also show that Lerner and other top officials of the IRS were aware of complaints about treatment by Tea Party groups.  In response to a February 2012 complaint and request for briefing from Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) with the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee about, according to the IRS, a Tea Party an organization that applied for exemption about 18 months previously and only “just recently” heard anything about the status of its application:  “When it did finally hear from us, we [the IRS] apparently asked some fairly detailed questions and gave the organization a short deadline to respond.”
Miller, who was then-IRS Deputy Commissioner for Service and Enforcement, emailed:  “let me know if it’s a taxpayer I should know about.”  He also complained about the number of emails about the issue, writing:  “Will the emails never stop?”  Miller became Acting Commissioner for the IRS later in the year and was eventually forced out after the Obama IRS scandal became public in May 2013.
Lerner handled the subsequent briefing of Rep. Jordan, and a statement by the IRS in response did not mention backlogs, Tea Party targeting, or Lerner’s own concerns about the nature of the questions the IRS was sending to Tea Party applicants.
Another email shows that Miller delayed “guidelines” for handling the backlogged applications the very week after Lerner’s briefing of Rep. Jordan.  This same email chain, dated February 28, shows that Lerner, in a response to a complaint from Sen. Mitch McConnell’s (R-KY) office about Tea Party application delays, Lerner admits:  “this is a very sensitive area.”
“These recovered Lois Lerner emails had to be dragged out of the Obama IRS, which is still resisting a federal court order requiring disclosure of Lerner’s ‘lost’ emails,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.  “This material shows that the IRS’ cover-up began years ago.  We now have smoking-gun proof that top officials in the Obama IRS unlawfully harassed taxpayers just to keep them from complaining to Congress about IRS’ targeting and abuse.  No wonder the Obama IRS has had such little interest in preserving or finding Lois Lerner’s emails.”

Debt Slaves: 7 Out Of 10 Americans Believe That Debt ‘Is A Necessity In Their Lives’

Debt Slaves: 7 Out Of 10 Americans Believe That Debt ‘Is A Necessity In Their Lives’

Could you live without debt? Most Americans say that they cannot

by Michael Snyder | End Of The American Dream | July 30, 2015
 

Could you live without debt?  Most Americans say that they cannot.
According to a brand new Pew survey, approximately 7 out of every 10 Americans believe that “debt is a necessity in their lives”, and approximately 8 out of every 10 Americans actually have debt right now.  Most of us like to think that “someday” we will get out of the hole and quit being debt slaves, but very few of us ever actually accomplish this.  That is because the entire system is designed to trap us in debt before we even get out into the “real world” and keep us in debt until we die.  Sadly, most Americans don’t even realize what is being done to them.
In America today, debt is considered to be just part of normal life.  We go into debt to go to college, we go into debt to buy a vehicle, we go into debt to buy a home, and we are constantly using our credit cards to buy the things that we think we need.
As a result, this generation of Americans is absolutely swimming in debt.  The following are some of the findings of the Pew survey that I mentioned above…
*”8 in 10 Americans have debt, with mortgages the most common liability.”
*”Although younger generations of Americans are the most likely to have debt (89 percent of Gen Xers and 86 percent of millennials do), older generations are increasingly carrying debt into retirement.”
*”7 in 10 Americans said debt is a necessity in their lives, even though they prefer not to have it.”
Most of us wish that we didn’t have any debt, but we have bought into the lie that it is a necessary part of life in America in the 21st century.
It has been estimated that 43 percent of all American households spend more money than they make each month, and U.S. households are more than 11 trillion dollars in debt at this point.
When it comes to government debt, that is easy for us to blame on someone else, but all of this household debt is undoubtedly something that we have done to ourselves.
It all starts at a very early age for most of us.  When we are still in high school, we are endlessly told about how important a college education is.  All of the authority figures in our lives insist that we should just try to get into the best school that we possibly can and to not even worry about how much it will cost.
So many of us go into staggering amounts of debt before we even get out into the working world.  We had faith that the “good jobs” that were being promised to us would be there when we graduated.
Unfortunately, in this day and age those “good jobs” end up being a mirage more often than not.
But whether or not we can find a good job, we still have to pay off all that debt.
According to new data that was recently released, the total amount of student loan debt in the United States has risen to a grand total 1.2 trillion dollars.  If you can believe it, that total has more than doubled over the past decade.
Right now, there are approximately 40 million Americans that are paying off student loan debt.  For many of them, they will keep making payments on this debt until they are senior citizens.
Another way that they get you while you are still in school is with credit card debt.
I got my first credit card while I was in college, and nobody ever taught me about the potential dangers.
Today, the average U.S. household that has at least one credit card has approximately $15,950 in credit card debt.
So let’s say that you have that much credit card debt and you are paying an annual interest rate of 17 percent.  If you only pay the minimum payment each month, it will take you 229 months to pay your credit card off, and during that time you will have paid $13,505.82 in interest charges.
In other words, you will almost have paid twice as much for everything that you originally bought with your credit card by the time it is all said and done.
This is why banks love to give you credit cards.  If they can get back nearly twice as much money as they originally give you, they get rich and you get poor.
Most of us get loaded down with even more debt when we go to buy a vehicle.  Instead of saving up and getting what we can afford, many of us end up getting the largest loans that we can qualify for.
In a previous article, I discussed the fact that the average auto loan at signing in America today is approximately $27,000.  In order to get the monthly payments down to a level where we can afford them, many of these auto loans are now being stretched out for six or seven years.  In fact, the number of auto loans that exceed 72 months has hit at an all-time high of 29.5 percent.
It is the same thing with home loans.
In the old days, it was extremely rare for a mortgage to be stretched over 30 years, but today that is pretty much the standard.
Sadly, most people don’t understand how much money this is costing them.
If you take out a $300,000 mortgage at 3.92 percent and stretch it over 30 years, you will end up paying back a grand total of $510,640.
In other words, you will pay for two houses by the time you are done.
Yes, we all need somewhere to live, and there are definitely negatives to renting as well.  But it is very important that we all understand what is being done to us.
And I haven’t even discussed one of the most insidious forms of debt yet.
Have you noticed that most doctors and most hospitals will never tell you how much something is going to cost in advance?
They get us when we are at our most vulnerable.  When there is something wrong with us physically, we are often desperate to get help.  So we don’t ask too many questions and we just go along with whatever they say.
But then later we get the bill and we are often completely shocked by what they have charged us.
If you are completely unethical, it is a great business model.  People that are extremely desperate and needy come to you and you don’t even have to tell them how much your services are going to cost.  And then once they leave, you send them an absolutely outrageous bill for whatever you feel like charging.
Frankly, I don’t know how a lot of people working in the medical field live with themselves.  In their extreme greed, they are ruining the lives of millions of ordinary American families.
One very disturbing study found that approximately 41 percent of all working age Americans either currently have medical bill problems or are paying off medical debt.  And collection agencies seek to collect unpaid medical bills from about 30 million of us each and every year.
Most of us will spend our entire lives paying off debt.
That is why we are called debt slaves – our hard work makes others extremely wealthy.
So is there a solution to this?  Please share what you think by posting a comment below…

Congress Infringes on Due Process:

Votes to Allow Obama to Strip You

of Right to Travel Without Trial

14 Comments

Another day, another right lost to the political corruption in Washington. In a move that has garnered almost "no" media attention, the House of Representatives passed HR 237, known as the "FTO (foreign terrorist organization) Passport Revocation Act, which allows the "Obama administration the unilateral power to strip you of your passport and right to travel without a trial or even criminal charges." This piece of legislation did not receive a "recorded vote" due to the "uncontroversial" support and passed after only 15 minutes of "supposed" debate. For anyone caught up in this "web" wrongly, there is no recourse contained in the legislation to "challenge the status as a non-person involuntarily trapped inside US borders by order of the secretary of state."

According to Infowars.com, "Lawmakers, some of whom could themselves be caught in the dragnet along with myriad administration officials, praised the effort as a way to stop alleged terrorists from travelling."

Congress wants to prevent "alleged terrorists" from travelling. Moreover, who does the federal government consider as terrorists? Documents obtained by Judicial Watch indicates the government considers approximately 72 types of US citizens as potential terrorists are while any reference to Islam is conspicuously missing. The White House, aka Ayatollah Obama, declares the unilateral authority to murder by drone or detain American citizens indefinitely without due process, charging them with a crime, or on "alleged" criminal activity.

The federal government wants to prevent "alleged terrorists" from leaving the country; however, this same government allows American citizens who fought with ISIS to return with impunity while claiming to "monitor" these traitors. So, just who is the government trying to keep from leaving? It's not Islamic jihadis.

Americans can thank Rep. Ted Poe (R-TX) for his sponsorship of the bill, which was "adopted under 'suspension of the rules' typically used for trivialities such as renaming post offices." In looking at the bill, it clearly states, "to authorize the revocation or denial of passports and passport cards to individuals affiliated with foreign terrorist organizations, and for other purposes." [Emphasis mine.]

Some who read this bill will say, "Now, Suzanne, you are going off the deep end here with this as it only applies to individuals who aid, abet, assist or help 'an organization the Secretary of State has designated as a foreign terrorist organization'. There's nothing to worry about if we're not helping terrorist organizations."

Well, under any other circumstances with any other Congress, president, Secretary of State prior to say 1990, there might not be cause for worry. However, with the liberal usurpation of unilateral authority to murder with drones and hold US citizens indefinitely without any due process, the stretch to false accusations for nefarious purposes by this administration or anyone in it isn't far. There are no set criteria in this "new" attack on liberty. The terms are undefined and there remains no appeals process. It creates an avenue for widespread abuse by the current Secretary of State, John Kerry, along with future occupants of that office.

Did anything in that document declare that actual evidence had to exist to invoke a passport revocation? The only criteria the document indicated were "whom the Secretary of State has determined ...." Basically, the new legislation, should it pass the Senate and be signed by Ayatollah Obama, could leave citizens stranded outside the United States as well as prevent citizens from leaving based on "secret" evidence or the whim of "one" individual. As a reminder, the NSA maintains a vast database of unlawfully, unconstitutionally gathered communications data on every US citizen that could be "sliced and diced" against targeted individuals to produce an appearance of "criminality" where none exists.

Naturally, Rep. Poe spins his "tapestry" like this. "Daily, deadly attacks around the world remind us that radical Islamic terrorists are spreading their murderous rampage worldwide. The threat to America from these groups has never been greater. But some of our own citizens have traveled to the terrorists hotbeds in Syria and beyond to fight for the other side. These Benedict Arnold traitors who have turned against America and joined the ranks of foreign radical terrorist armies should lose all rights afforded to our citizens."

No one would argue that traitors should lose their rights, but only after following due process, a trial by jury and a finding of guilt for treason or being guilty of being a traitor. However, the determination of revocation of rights by one individual, instead of the due process guaranteed every US citizen in the Constitution, reeks of unilateral, dictatorial power.

Poe continued by saying, "This will help law enforcement locate these individuals by making it easier to flag the individuals who are trying to travel internationally. Most importantly, this legislation will help prevent Americans from coming back to the United States undetected."

Anyone else want to call "BS?" With an open southern border allowing who knows who to cross and be welcomed with open arms and our Ayatollah importing unvetted Muslims daily from every terrorist nation in the Middle East into our communities, these "charlatans" are more concerned about Americans re-entering "undetected." The FBI knows who these individuals are and the FBI allows them to re-enter the US with impunity. Granted, these individuals should not be allowed to return; however, US citizens should be afforded due process in order to establish their guilt or innocence. Guilty individuals should receive a traitor's punishment. Poe certainly does not want to address the policy of illegal, unconstitutional "amnesty" or the lack of enforcement of immigration laws as it relates to this "passport revocation."

Could anyone answer the question of how many non-Muslim US citizens actually travel to terrorist nations to fight with terrorists? Let's be honest here. All terrorists are Muslims, while not all Muslims are terrorists -- yet.

Poe, like a good little RINO, continues digging a pothole. He states, "The House has now acted to locate and contain these traitors. It's time for the Senate to quickly do the same. These people are not returning to America to open up coffee shops; they're coming back to kill. Let's stop them from coming back at all."

It sounds good and something on which everyone could agree. In fact, known terrorists should be barred entry or re-entry into this nation; however, it's moot when the administration imports terrorists freely daily.

To clarify, the United States should bar the immigration of Muslims and the re-entry of Muslims into this nation. The "Americans" who are leaving to fight with terrorists have a connection to Islam. Still, the Constitution affords every US citizen due process. A better idea would be to stop importing terrorists by denying Islam-practicing individuals entry into this nation. Instead of identifying the problem as Islam and acting accordingly, this lame government blindly barrels forward with inept legislation filled with "unintended consequences;" or, is it?

And, what about "containing" the traitors sitting in this administration, Congress and the biggest one of all, Ayatollah Obama? Funny, nothing mentioned about that. Treason is treason and traitors are traitors whether they aid and abet the enemy or violate their oath of office to support, protect, defend and uphold the Constitution of the united States of America. Maybe Poe should start looking in both chambers of Congress and the White House first.

According to Infowars.com, "Critics said it was yet another attack on the fundamental rights of Americans, such as due process protections, and that it must be resisted."

But, this is the crux of the issue - attacking the fundamental rights of Americans - not a crackdown on those who participate in treasonous and terrorist activities. Poe called individuals who joined to fight with foreign Islamic terror groups as "Benedict Arnold traitors." Would that not also include those who "aid and abet" those groups? The legislation declares it so, which means the dragnet would net Senator John McCain should he desire to travel and pose with known terrorists, again. Not only would McCain be caught, but so would Kerry, Obama, Jarrett and a host of other officials. Oh wait, they exempt themselves; however, these individuals are some of the biggest supporters of terrorist and terrorist organizations in the united States.

Another surprise Americans face is the denial of travel for "alleged tax debts." As the New American reports, "... just this week, the Senate included a provision in the 'transportation' bill it introduced that would strip the passports of anyone the IRS claims owes over $50,000." Section 52102 of the Senate bill calls for revocation or denial of passports based on unpaid taxes. The Commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service only has to submit "certification" to the Secretary of State stating an individual "has a seriously delinquent tax debt in an amount in excess of $50,000, ...."

Considering the honesty of the IRS, Americans need not be concerned, or so some would contend. At the rate Obama uses the IRS as his "strong arm" against political opposition with impunity, every American should be concerned.

All of this is nothing more than bypassing US citizens' rights to due process.

Anyone who studies the history of the rise of Nazi Germany knows that on October 5, 1938, a passport revocation decree resulted in the confiscation of passports held by Jewish German citizens. While the House has not specifically targeted a "certain" group or groups of citizens, the "unintended consequences" are enormous for that to happen considering the propensity for this administration to target opposition groups. If this administration continues its criminal course to unilaterally deny individual God-given rights guaranteed by the Constitution, our nation's government will follow the path of Hitler's regime. They will succeed as long as citizens continue their "head down" to get by plan of inaction and liberal "traitors" continue their support of a corrupt government and administration.

Drugs & Hooker Video Forces House Of Lords Deputy Speaker To Resign

Drugs & Hooker Video Forces House Of Lords Deputy Speaker To Resign
July 30 2015 | via RT

Scotland Yard has been called in to investigate the deputy speaker of the House of Lords after a video emerged of him allegedly snorting cocaine with prostitutes.



Lord Sewel resigned from his £84,500 per year post after the video was leaked to the Sun newspaper and published in an expose on Sunday.

The Prime Minister backed his decision to resign amid "very serious allegations".

"I think it's right he has stood down from his committee posts and I'm sure further questions will be asked about whether it is appropriate to have someone legislating and acting in the House of Lords if they have genuinely behaved in this way" Cameron said.

"It's still going to take some time I suspect to get to the full truth.‎"

Sewel, 69, is facing calls to quit parliament altogether, and he could become the first peer to be expelled under new rules he was instrumental in implementing.

Police proceeded to search Sewel’s flat, entering the property with sniffer dogs and exiting with bags of evidence, according to media reports.

So far no arrests have been made, police said.

“A warrant under Section 23 of the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 was today granted at Westminster Magistrates’ Court,” Scotland Yard said in a statement. “The warrant was executed at 6 pm at an address in central London by officers from the Special Enquiry

Team of the Homicide and Major Crime Command.”


The footage show’s Sewel naked with two women at his apartment in Dolphin Square,

a luxury residence close to parliament. Flats in the block, which are popular among

MPs and Lords, are also being investigated as part of the inquiry into alleged historic

child sex abuse.

The video shows the Lord snorting white powder, which the paper alleges to be cocaine, from between the breasts of a prostitute using a five pound note, which a different shot shows Sewel wearing a bra and leather jacket while smoking a cigarette. He is further believed to have paid one of the women £200 for the night.

Lord Speaker Baroness D'Souza said:

“Today’s revelations about the behavior of Lord Sewel are both shocking and unacceptable. Lord Sewel has this morning resigned as chairman of committees.

The House of Lords will continue to uphold standards in public life and will not tolerate departure from these standards.

These serious allegations will be referred to the House of Lords Commissioner for Standards and the Metropolitan Police for investigation as a matter of urgency,” her statement read.

Sewel could be expelled under the House of Lords Suspension and Expulsion Act 2015, which was given Royal Assent in March. The Act states peers may be barred if they do

not stick to a strict code of conduct, and that they must “always act on their personal honor.”

The Lords Privileges and Conduct Committee, which Lord Sewel chaired before the

video emerged, will decide on a punishment after the Lords Commissioner for

Standards Paul Kernaghan has gathered evidence.

Police sources noted that drug allegations were difficult to investigate with only video evidence rather than physical substances. Labour MP John Mann said Sewel should resign from the Lords before he is forced to go.

“He chaired the committee that makes the decisions on discipline. It was his committee,” the MP for Bassetlaw said.

“He cannot possibly go in front of his own committee and expect a serious hearing."

"He is a disgrace. He should retire and resign immediately."

“A lifetime ban would be the committee’s only option. He needs to save them and

himself further embarrassment and go now.”

Floundering Puerto Rico Unable to Pay

Floundering Puerto Rico Unable to Pay

The U.S. territory doesn't have the funds to meet an Aug. 1 debt payment deadline.

A man plays his guitar while begging for money on June 29 in front of a shuttered business in Old San Juan, Puerto Rico. The commonwealth is weighed down by a massive amount of outstanding debt.
By Andrew Soergel July 27, 2015 | 6:19 p.m. EDT
Just as Greece and its international creditors have finally set the table for the cash-strapped country's third bailout deal in five years, a Puerto Rican repayment deadline has reared its ugly head, ensuring that a potential default on a massive amount of debt remains in the headlines for at least another few weeks.
The Puerto Rico Public Finance Corporation – a subsidiary of the U.S. territory's Government Development Bank – doesn't have enough cash to give its bondholders tens of millions of dollars by Saturday's deadline, Victor Suarez, the Puerto Rican governor's chief of staff, told reporters in San Juan on Monday, according to CNBC and Reuters. Suarez said Puerto Rico will do "everything that is possible" for the development bank's debt to be repaid.
But Puerto Rico's Infrastructure Financing Authority also will reportedly abandon its goal of raising nearly $3 billion to refinance a loan the development bank made to the island's Highways and Transportation Authority.
"We are trying to achieve a smaller transaction with reasonable terms of some $400 to $500 million," Suarez said, according to Reuters.
Puerto Rico is staring down more than $70 billion in outstanding debt, several times what Detroit's was when the city filed for bankruptcy back in 2013. But unlike Detroit and Stockton, California – two debt-ridden cities that successfully filed for Chapter 9 bankruptcy protections – Puerto Rico is a U.S. territory. As such, it's not afforded the same legal benefits extended to other American jurisdictions.
And despite a recent push to treat Puerto Rico as a state in ongoing debt proceedings, which would effectively allow the commonwealth to open Chapter 9 filings to its subsidiaries and municipalities, Congress has yet to sign off on any such reclassification.
"They're facing all of these debt payments. And the thing is you don't normally wake up every morning and think about what's going on in Puerto Rico. It's such a small place," says Mauro Guillén, a professor and director of the Lauder Institute at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School of Business. "So this initially comes as a surprise that this burden is so big, but it has been growing in the last few years."
Puerto Rico's municipal bonds are afforded what's called triple tax exemption, essentially making them immune to income taxes. Their popularity attracted investors from all over the U.S. as the island territory accrued massive amounts of debt.
But the 2006 expiration of a separate tax credit that helped bring factories – and jobs – from the mainland struck a huge blow to Puerto Rico's economy. Manufacturing plants shuttered their doors and employment opportunities dried up. People began to leave the island in search of new jobs, and those that remained were left with a smaller pool of options.
"After growing continuously for almost two centuries, Puerto Rico's population declined for the first time in 2006, and has since shrunk from its peak to about 3.5 million in 2015," said a recent report commissioned by the Puerto Rican government and conducted by three former International Monetary Fund economists. "Workers are disinclined to take up jobs, because the welfare system provides generous benefits that often exceed what minimum wage employment yields."
As a result, Puerto Rico's economy has ground to a halt and its labor force participation rate dipped below 40 percent in May, compared with 48.1 percent in July 2006, according to the Pew Research Center.
Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., and Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., earlier this month introduced a Senate bill that would allow Puerto Rico's public corporations to file for Chapter 9 bankruptcy, though its passage is far from guaranteed. Puerto Rico's government is also attempting to negotiate a "haircut" that would essentially forgive some of its outstanding debts.
But a report issued over the weekend and commissioned by a group of debt-holding firms suggested Puerto Rico "has a deficit problem, not a debt problem" and could potentially generate a budgetary surplus by 2017.
The report suggests Puerto Rico wouldn't need any kind of major debt restructuring, and instead could rely on fiscal and economic reforms to generate a surplus. The document notes that Puerto Rico has room to cut governmental and education expenses and that "improved tax compliance" could help bolster gross national product and provide "increased fiscal flexibility." It estimates Puerto Rico could pull together an additional $1.1 billion if it could boost its sales tax collection rates up to the U.S. average.
The report's findings stand in contrast to last month's report commissioned by the Puerto Rican government, which suggested a combination of bondholder concessions, policy updates and general economic restructuring. That report called for a "comprehensive program" that shares "the costs and benefits of reform across government, workers, businesses and creditors."
"Negotiations with creditors will doubtlessly be challenging: There is no U.S. precedent for anything of this scale and scope," the report said. "But difficult or not, the projections are clear that the issue can no longer be avoided."

IN MEMORY OF SANDRA BLAND

US July 29, 2015

HEMPSTEAD, Texas (AP) — Texas authorities released additional footage from Sandra Bland's three days in jail, saying they wanted to dispel rumors that she was dead before arriving.

Waller County Judge Trey Duhon said Tuesday that such conspiracy theories — including one that Bland's mug shot was taken after her death — have prompted death threats against county officials. "Because of some of the things that's gone out on social media, this county has been literally attacked," he said at a news conference, adding that the FBI is investigating the most serious threats.
"Sandra Bland was alive and well" until she was found hanging on July 13 in her cell at the Waller County Jail, Duhon said. Authorities have ruled that Bland's death, three days after her arrest during a confrontational traffic stop, was a suicide.

 

 

The video released shows her arriving at the jail, being questioned by a jailer filling out forms, making phone calls, getting her mug shot taken, sleeping in her cell and being taken in and out. She's calm when she arrives at the jail, sometimes smiling and at one point putting her head in her hands. The jailer let her use the phone at the booking desk instead of the pay phone in her cell, and she was seen talking with animation during some of the calls. The video has no audio.
Authorities have said Bland, a black 28-year-old from suburban Chicago, hanged herself with a garbage bag, a finding that her family has questioned, saying she was happy. She was in custody for allegedly assaulting the white state trooper who pulled her over for an improper lane change.
Her sister, Sharon Cooper, did not return a call from The Associated Press seeking comment Tuesday. The death has garnered national attention amid increased scrutiny of police treatment of blacks in the wake of several high-profile police-involved deaths. In Chicago, more than 100 people gathered downtown Tuesday night for a vigil and protest.

On Monday, an initial toxicology report was released for Bland that two experts said raised the possibility that she may have used marijuana while in custody. Prosecutor Warren Diepraam has said information on her marijuana use may be relevant to the case in determining her state of mind.
The amount of THC, one of the active components of marijuana, in Bland's system was 18 micrograms per liter, according to the report. That's more than three times the legal limit for drivers in Colorado and Washington, states that permit the recreational use of marijuana.
Capt. Brian Cantrell of the Waller County Sheriff's Office said Tuesday that he doesn't know if she could have used marijuana in the jail. He said there's no recent history of drug seizures there but noted things get smuggled into jails everywhere.

A committee of outside attorneys will assist Waller County District Attorney Elton Mathis in investigating Bland's death. "I don't know if we'll ever get an answer to all the questions," said attorney Lewis White of Sugar Land, one of the committee members. "But our job is to get answers. There are going to be answers some people don't like."

The Texas Rangers and the FBI are investigating the case.

High-ranking BLM official convicted by jury

Jury Convicts Former High-Ranking BLM Official

PACER Case Reference: 14-57

GREAT FALLS – The former State Director of the Bureau of Land Management’s Eastern States Region, which is responsible for the stewardship of the public lands and resources under the jurisdiction of the BLM in 31 States east of and bordering the Mississippi River, was convicted of fraud and theft by a federal jury in Great Falls Wednesday night.

John Grimson Lyon, 61, of Clifton, Virginia, faces a possible 35 years imprisonment, $750,000 in fines, and $112,000 in forfeitures.  Judge Brian Morris of Great Falls set sentencing for June 25, 2015.

As a State Director, Lyon was part of the Senior Executive Service, whose members serve in the key positions just below the top Presidential appointees. Lyon was convicted of approving time sheet information for one of his Deputy State Directors, Larry Ray Denny, 67, of Box Elder, even though Denny had left his position in Virginia in July 2012 to return to Montana and take a job with the Chippewa Cree Tribe on the Rocky Boy’s Indian Reservation. Federal prosecutors alleged that Lyon knew or should have known that his subordinate had abandoned his position and was performing no work on behalf of the federal government when he told BLM time keepers to continue to enter Denny’s hours as if he were earning a federal paycheck.

Lyon continued to present and certify as true work hours, sick leave hours, and annual leave hours to his staff, on Denny’s behalf, until Denny ultimately resigned in March of 2013.  After leaving Virginia, and as a result of Lyon’s actions, Denny received an additional $112,000 in federal wages and benefits, all while working as Energy Projects Manager for the tribe.  The scheme was discovered in February 2013 when a BLM employee in Montana sent an inquiry to that agency’s headquarters asking for clarification as to whether Denny was still a BLM employee.  Denny had been working on oil and gas issues for the Tribe and the agency was unsure whether he was interacting with federal agencies as a BLM employee or as a representative of the Chippewa Cree Tribe.

Eastern States Office employees testified that Lyon rebuffed any inquiry into Denny’s status, telling them that Denny’s absence was related to a private medical issue and would not be discussed.  An internal investigation revealed that Denny had over 3,000 unopened emails in his government email inbox.  Employees testified that once Denny left Virginia there was “radio silence” and he could not be reached.  One employee testified that she called Denny twice shortly after his departure; on the second call, Denny hung up on her once he determined who was calling.

Lyon claimed Denny had been giving him valuable consultation on oil and gas matters which justified his work hours.  An investigator with the Department of Interior’s Office of Inspector General testified that she reviewed Lyon’s phone records and found less than three hours of conversation in the eight-month period between July 2012 and March 2013. Emails and phone records revealed that Lyon and Denny regularly used non-government email and phones to communicate, thereby creating no data trail in government servers or phone records.

In November 2012, three months after Denny left and ceased working for BLM, Lyon rated Denny’s performance “exceptional” and approved a $3,200 cash bonus.

Denny plead guilty to all counts and the forfeiture three days before Lyon’s trial.

The guilty verdict is the latest in a series of prosecutions and convictions relating to public corruption, fraud, and theft in federal grants, contracts and programs brought by the investigators and prosecutors of the U.S. Attorney’s Guardians Project, an anti-corruption strike force created in 2011.  The Denny-Lyon case was investigated by an agent of the Department of Interior’s Office of Inspector General.

United States Attorney Michael Cotter said that “We prosecute people who steal and cheat the taxpayers every day.  Federal officials, regardless of their power or position, will be held to the same standard. The jury’s verdict sends a message.  ‘It’s not your money.  You are trusted to protect it.  Do your duty or we will do ours.’”

Here is the work of a drunken idiot with nothing better to do than to screw with others!

I don't know what this idiot is trying to accomplish with his crap. Every time I have had any direct communication with this guy, he was usually 3 sheets to the wind and has a fascination with old war time doings with intelligence which it seems he is lacking of..

A couple years ago I set my email filter to deposit anything he sends me right into deletion and haven't seen squat from him since. This was forwarded to me by a third party and I was surprised this guy still has a hardon for harassing me after two years... WOW! A real diehard here. 

I decided to hang this dirty laundry out here for all to see and if anyone chooses to use their imagination with any of the information contained below.. well, it's your choice.



 The Corporate UNITED STATES et al  is a bankrupt corporation therefore civilly dead. They do not exist in law and cannot bring a claim against anyone! This includes the FBI as they are a part of the bankrupt corporation! So.. Tynan and his bankrupt foreign corporate friends can pucker up and kiss my.. you know what.

Your initial complaint was sufficient for the FBI to frame it's investigative predication, approach and decisions. I know the resources they have... And their professionalism. I have nothing more to offer.

My Dear Ty:  I am very sorry about the state of your health. I mean that. I have been retired from the FBI for 7 years. I will not be informed of any investigative developments. Despite my history, when you retire you put an agent's career at risk if you solicit any information. I would never do that to a former colleague. You must understand that...  Please know that I wish you the best, going forward.
