\nQuote – Yemen was a particularly difficult place to start a terrorist investigation, as it was filled with active Al Qaeda cells and with sympathizers at very high levels of government.
\nClick through if you will.<\/a> It’s quite long because it’s quite in depth, and it’s hair-raising. I chose that quote because you could make it present tense, substitute “the United States” for “Yemen” and “Y’all Qaeda” for “Al Qaeda,” and it would be true.<\/p>\n
\nQuote – The federal judge who has presided over Jacob Chansley\u2019s criminal case doesn\u2019t appear to be entirely convinced that the so-called \u201cQAnon Shaman\u201d of Jan. 6 has had a change of heart and renounced the sprawling conspiracy theory for which he is a \u201cmascot.\u201d Senior Judge Royce Lamberth, a Ronald Reagan appointee, said in a memorandum opinion and order unsealed Friday that Chansley will not be allowed to get out of jail ahead of sentencing for obstruction of an official proceeding.

\nQuote – Investigators were able to identify officers involved in 26 of the cases [out of 38 investigations], the statement said, and found no evidence of wrongdoing in 20. Of the other six, it said, three are cited for conduct unbecoming, one for failing to comply with directives, one for improper remarks, and one for \u201cimproper dissemination of information\u201d.
\nClick throughfor little detail but much privacy.<\/a> We did know some of the officers were more accommodating than needed be. We can hope these are they.<\/p>\n
