EPA Officials Obstructed Fraud Investigation http://weaselzippers.us/176934-epa-officials-obstructed-fraud-investigation/

 

Several Environmental Protection Agency employees obstructed an investigation into the mismanagement that allowed a senior EPA official to bilk taxpayers for nearly $900,000, the EPA Inspector General said in a letter to Sen. David Vitter (R., La.) released Wednesday.

 

EPA employees threatened Inspector General investigators, refused to cooperate, and handed out non-disclosure agreements to other employees to keep them from being interviewed, EPA Inspector General Arthur Elkins Jr. wrote in response to a request for information by Vitter on the case.

 

“Over the past 12 months, there have been several EPA officials who have taken action to prevent [the Office of Investigations] OI from conducting investigations or have attempted to obstruct investigations through intimidation,” Elkins wrote.

Yes, There Are Paid Government Trolls On Social Media, Blogs, Forums And Websites

Troll-Warning-Photo-by-Gil-300x300.jpg

 

Do you want solid proof that paid government shills are targeting websites, blogs, forums and social media accounts?

 

For years, many have suspected that government trolls have been systematically causing havoc all over the Internet, but proving it has been difficult. But now thanks to documents leaked by Edward Snowden and revealed by Glenn Greenwald, we finally have hard evidence that western governments have been doing this.

 

As you will see below, a UK intelligence outfit known as the Government Communications Headquarters, through a previously secret unit known as the Joint Threat Research Intelligence Group, has been systematically attempting “to control, infiltrate, manipulate, and warp online discourse”.

 

This should be deeply disturbing to anyone that values free speech on the Internet.

It isn’t just that the British government is trying to influence what people are thinking.

 

The reality is that this is far bigger than a mere propaganda campaign. As Greenwald recently noted on his new website, the “integrity of the Internet itself” is at stake…

 

By publishing these stories one by one, our NBC reporting highlighted some of the key, discrete revelations: the monitoring of YouTube and Blogger, the targeting of Anonymous with the very same DDoS attacks they accuse “hacktivists” of using, the use of “honey traps” (luring people into compromising situations using sex) and destructive viruses.

 

But, here, I want to focus and elaborate on the overarching point revealed by all of these documents: namely, that these agencies are attempting to control, infiltrate, manipulate, and warp online discourse, and in doing so, are compromising the integrity of the internet itself.

 

So what techniques are the British using to control and manipulate discourse on the Internet?

Jury acquits Little Canada man who videotaped deputy, ambulance crew

 

 

Andrew Henderson said he will continue shooting videos of police after a Ramsey County jury found him not guilty Thursday of criminal charges filed against him after he turned his camera on Ramsey County sheriff's deputies and an ambulance crew in 2012.

 

But Henderson said that from now on, the videos he shoots will be immediately streamed and saved in "the cloud," meaning there will always be a copy that can't be erased.

 

A sheriff's deputy took away Henderson's camera when Henderson would not identify himself and refused to stop taping an Oct. 30, 2012, incident outside Henderson's apartment building in Little Canada in which an ambulance crew and police were taking away a drunken man.

 

The deputy told Henderson, "If I end up on YouTube, I'm gonna be upset.
