SCOTT #WALKER: LORETTA #LYNCH ‘NOT FIT TO SERVE’ AS ATTORNEY GENERAL ! @Breitbart
by MATTHEW BOYLE13 Mar 2015Washington, DC
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker says President Barack Obama’s Attorney General nominee, Loretta Lynch, is unfit to be the nation’s top lawyer because of her support for executive amnesty and other positions she’s taken, the governor’s spokeswoman Kirsten Kukowski tells Breitbart News.
“Given Loretta Lynch’s failure to commit to protect Americans from the president’s lawless executive overreach, that even he said nearly two dozen times, she is not fit to serve as the nation’s Attorney General,” Kukowski said in an email.
Walker is in New Hampshire, the first in the nation primary state, on Friday, meeting with — among others — former Sen. Scott Brown (R-MA)—who narrowly lost to Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) in the general election last year.
While Walker doesn’t have a vote in the U.S. Senate, his public opposition to Lynch’s nomination could have massive implications as the vote heads to the Senate floor next week. Even the four Republicans who have stated they intend to support Lynch—Sens. Jeff Flake (R-AZ), Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Orrin Hatch (R-UT) and Susan Collins (R-ME)—might not want to oppose Walker’s position, along with the position of Sen. John McCain (R-AZ), the 2008 GOP presidential nominee.

Sharyl Attkisson sues #administration over computer #hacking
By Howard Kurtz
Former CBS News correspondent Sharyl Attkisson has sued the Justice Department over the hacking of her computers, officially accusing the Obama administration of illegal surveillance while she was reporting on administration scandals.
In a series of legal filings that seek $35 million in damages, Attkisson alleges that three separate computer forensic exams showed that hackers used sophisticated methods to surreptitiously monitor her work between 2011 and 2013.
"I just think it's important to send a message that people shouldn't be victimized and throw up their hands and think there's nothing they can do and they're powerless," Attkisson said in an interview

NYC Police Commissioner says cops 'feel under attack' by #OBAMA, #Justice
Cops on the beat and their bosses believe they are under attack from President Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder, New York City’s police commissioner said Sunday.
Commissioner William Bratton said on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that the president and the attorney general have to see why police have the anxieties and perceptions they have as law enforcement grapples with the fallout from the Michael Brown and Eric Garner cases.
“They really do feel under attack, rank-and-file officers and much of American police leadership, that they feel they’re under attack from the federal government at the highest levels,” Bratton said. “So that’s something we need to understand also, this sense of perception that becomes a reality.”
He added, “We have a lot of talking we’re going to have to do here to understand all sides of this issue. This is not a one-sided issu

#PJNET #Obama #DOJ forces US City to pay Muslims $7.75 million
Posted on December 10, 2014 by Pamela Geller — 60 Comments
A proposed mega-mosque in the pretty little town of Bridgewater, New Jersey, was rejected by the town council last year, “citing an ordinance that limited houses of worship to major roads.” Reasonable enough. Municipal officials argued that the purpose of the ordinance was to “preserve the residential character of its various neighborhoods.”
But Islamic supremacists and Muslim Brotherhood organizations like CAIR called upon their lapdogs at the Department of Justice, who sued Bridgewater. The DoJ has become the de facto legal arm of terror-tied Muslim Brotherhood groups in this country. What small town can go up against the U.S. government’s vast resources and endless taxpayer-funded muscle?
It speaks volumes about the three pillars (more like clubs) of the Islamization of the West – “interfaith dialogue,” “mutual respect” and “mutual understanding” – that they are absent when it comes to Muslim demands. Kuffar and infidels get no such mutual respect, mutual understanding and dialogue when it comes to mega-mosques and free speech. Where is reciprocity? Reciprocity with non-Muslims is forbidden under Islamic law (Shariah).
This New Jersey town was forced to pay Muslims $7.75 million to keep them from building a mega-mosque there.

DOJ brings first-ever cyber-espionage case against Chinese officials
Attorney General Eric Holder on Monday announced a first-of-its-kind criminal cyber-espionage case against Chinese military officials the Justice Department charges hacked into major U.S. companies to steal trade secrets -- though Holder could not say whether the five defendants stand a chance of ever seeing the inside of a U.S. courtroom.
Holder, in announcing the indictment against five Shanghai-based officials, acknowledged that the defendants have never set foot in the United States.

Pressed on whether there's any hope the Chinese government would hand over the officials, Holder said only the "intention" is for the defendants to face the charges in a U.S. court, and he hopes to have Chinese government cooperation.

Senate blocks Obama’s civil rights nominee
The Senate filibustered President Obama’s nominee to lead the Justice Department’s civil rights division, with seven Democrats joining Republicans Wednesday in arguing his past history defending a convicted cop-killer made him the wrong man for the job.
The defeat of Debo P. Adegbile, who as a lawyer for the NAACP filed a brief arguing that former Black Panther Mumia Abu-Jamal’s murder trial was tainted by racism, is a major blow to Mr. Obama. It comes even after Democrats changed the rules
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Libs get away with a lot but defending a COP KILLER like Jamal is too much even for most of them.
As liberal as they may be, the public still wants to see COP KILLERS locked safely away for a long time, or quickly put in the cemetery.

NSA Surveillance Bugs D.C. Judge
D.C. Circuit is likely to review landmark ruling.
The National Law Journal
December 23, 2013
The National Security Agency's bulk collection of Americans' phone records is bound for review by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit — just as the court is set to undergo significant change.
U.S. District Judge Richard Leon ruled last week that the government's surveillance efforts "almost certainly" violated the Fourth Amendment. Leon was caustic in his criticism of the phone data collection — James Madison "would be aghast," the judge wrote — and skeptical of the argument that protection of the national security justifies the program.

Inspector general says inmate overcrowding poses 'increasingly critical threat.'
The National Law Journal
December 23, 2013
Prison reform, the protection of civil liberties and the fight against fraud are among the top management challenges that face the U.S. Department of Justice in the new year, according to the department's inspector general.
The report, the equivalent of the State of the Union address from the agency's internal watchdog, paints mostly in broad strokes across the Justice Department. Inspector General Michael Horowitz identified as the most pressing challenge the overcrowding of the federal prison system, which he called "an increasingly critical threat."
