Gene's Footnotes

I have never been impressed by the messenger and always inspect the message, which I now understand is not the norm. People prefer to filter out discordant information. As such, I am frequently confronted with, "Where did you hear that...." Well, here you go. If you want an email version, send me an email.

FBI and Fascism

Some prose from a report from Rutherford Institute.  

There are quotes and no sources. The page is not slick, which could be a good thing. Here are some data points to consider and/or research. One needs to be wary of excited blather even where it fits one's preconceptions. However, I added some supportive links.

Of course, our government is duplicitous and secret, so anything that may concern you below is only that which has been permitted to reach you.  The key to the future is to have two computers, one that is never part of the Internet.  Of course, anyone who has two computers or a locked file cabinet would be "suspects."


As the saying has it, a word to the wise is sufficient:

...Then again, to those familiar with COINTELPRO, an FBI program created to “disrupt, misdirect, discredit, and neutralize” groups and individuals the government considers politically objectionable, it should come as no surprise that the agency has mastered the art of government disinformation. [Gene: COINTELPRO saved us from the likes of Albert Einstein and his mad subversion of ignorance.] 
The FBI has been particularly criticized in the wake of the 9/11 terrorist attacks for targeting vulnerable individuals and not only luring them into fake terror plots but actually equipping them with the organization, money, weapons and motivation to carry out the plots—entrapment—and then jailing them for their so-called terrorist plotting. This is what the FBI characterizes as “forward leaning—preventative—prosecutions.” [Sic. Those who studied English know the word is "preventive." 
Another fallout from 9/11, National Security Letters, one of the many illicit powers authorized by the USA Patriot Act, allows the FBI to secretly demand that banks, phone companies, and other businesses provide them with customer information and not disclose the demands. An internal audit of the agency found that the FBI practice of issuing tens of thousands of NSLs every year for sensitive information such as phone and financial records, often in non-emergency cases, is riddled with widespread violations. 
The FBI’s surveillance capabilities, on a par with the National Security Agency, boast a nasty collection of spy tools ranging from Stingray devices that can track the location of cell phones to Triggerfish devices which allow agents to eavesdrop on phone calls.  In one case, the FBI actually managed to remotely reprogram a “suspect’s” wireless internet card so that it would send “real-time cell-site location data to Verizon, which forwarded the data to the FBI.” 
Now the FBI is seeking to expand its already invasive hacking powers to allow agents to hack into any computer, anywhere in the world. As journalist Brett Wilkins warns: 
If the proposed rule change is approved, the FBI would have the power to unleash “network investigative techniques” against computers anywhere in the world, allowing the agency to secretly install malware and spyware on any computer, effectively allowing it to control that computer and all its stored information. The FBI could download all the computer’s digital contents, switch its camera or microphone on or off and even control other computers in its network….
James Corney, of FBI czar, want Congress to direct Apple and Android to provide a back door into their new secure phones. (I can't find an enabling clause in the Constitution for this.]  If I were you, I would investigate who votes for this and vote them out. There is no partial corruption. The mere fact there is endless subversion of rules and opinions proves corruption.
From a Florida case, reported by Wired, where the ACLU was stunned to see evidence of Stingray use in a law suit was preemptively taken by the U.S. Marshal (Treasury) in order to prevent routine evidentiary examination. Is there an official "finger?"  Notice Tallahassee police used Stingray more than 200 times since 2010.  This is just one small city. Again, word to the wise:
...The government has long asserted it doesn’t need a probable-cause warrant to use stingrays because the device doesn’t collect the content of phone calls and text messages, but instead operates like pen-registers and trap-and-traces, collecting the equivalent of header information. The ACLU and others argue that the devices are more invasive than a trap-and-trace. 
Recently, the Tallahassee police department revealed it had used stingrays at least 200 times since 2010 without telling any judge because the device’s manufacturer made the police department sign a non-disclosure agreement that police claim prevented them from disclosing use of the device to the courts….
I wonder if the Mafia can have people sign a "non-disclosure agreement" to hide its crimes?

We need to assume everything we say is recorded and categorized. Lawyers call this "chilling" the right of free speech. This unconstitutional concept is no long an abstraction. Further, everything you are told must be assumed to be a lie of some sort. All is spin. For example, the feisty nurse who refused to accept a week or two of quarantine in Maine (and New Jersey) has her license in Texas. Odd no?  Not when you realized she is a paid "intelligence" officer of the CDC.

Apparently, the CDC thinks calling a department "intelligence" will add some to the department. Remember when the CDC was interested in helping us combat disease?

Yes, the CDC needs clandestine operatives to keep you from the flu. Oh, I have never had a shot and have never had the flu. If I get it, I will have a fever for a few days. OMG!!! You can understand the need for the government to spend billions of dollars, given to drug companies, to fight last year's flu. More oligarchy. Interwoven corruption is daily ooze.

Do you really trust the government to inject you with pathogens? Did you know that after the vaccine killed a few dozen people, what in the 1978 alleged outbreak, Congress passed a law making vaccine manufacturers immune, themselves.  That means immune from the infection of your family's law suit after you have been sacrificed.


As an afterthought, the world has turn upside-down as I wonder if contributing to the ACLU is worthy action. Certainly, the Republican elite has no interest in preserving the rights of the individual as recounted in the Constitution.  Our highest priority is protecting our rights. If this is done, all the other subversive stuff goes nowhere without force.

Our rights predated the Constitution and were not granted by the government. They are human rights that were freed from British tyranny.
