The FBI Fancies Itself A Corporation

FBI Director Robert S. Mueller

Today on The FBI's website, the national law enforcement agency fancied itself a corporation, much like the Judiciary Report's sister site the Sound Off Column made reference to in 2006, drawing parallels to point out the agency's shortcomings, costing the taxpayers of America a fortune, due to their folly.

Today the FBI stated, "In the corporate world, the approach might help reveal inefficiencies and save money. For the FBI, finding intelligence gaps or discovering better methods could save lives."

However, the FBI clearly thinks a lot of itself, which is ironic given its terrible failure rate. As the Sound Off Column did in 2006, comparing the FBI to a corporation to highlight its failures, the Judiciary Report shall do today as well, especially in light of recently released Inspector General reports, painfully illustrating the FBI is still wasting hundreds of millions in taxpayer money. Some people never learn.

A corporation could never function in the manner the FBI has under Director Robert S. Mueller. If the FBI had been an actual corporation, it would have went bankrupt, folded and gone out of business long ago, with shareholders protesting in revolt at its poor practices that cost them a big bundle.

In corporate terms, the FBI suffers from self-inflicted bad PR, systematic budget overruns, financial misappropriation, exorbitant expense accounts, embezzlement, unethical business practices, deceptive advertising, invades customers' privacy, poor consumer ties, ineptitude, breach of fiduciary duty, misconduct, insider trading, unaccounted for and stolen equipment, unnecessary overtime, gross lack of efficiency, computer illiterate, bad communications systems, a bad line of products and a treacherous, ruthless megalomaniac CEO.

TALKING STRATEGY

The New Intelligence-Driven FBI - 04/02/10 - With the leadership of almost every major FBI program seated around a conference table at FBI Headquarters and the top echelons of the Bureau’s three largest field offices appearing via remote television monitors, Director Robert Mueller arrived in shirtsleeves and got down to business.

The assistant directors in charge of the New York, Los Angeles, and Washington Field Offices, along with their top managers, were present—leaning forward, ready to field questions on how they are tackling the Bureau’s top priorities and their own most pressing threats.

The meeting is called a Strategy Performance Session, or SPS. It’s a management tool to drill down and identify how well a field office knows its territory and what its investigative strengths and weaknesses are. In the corporate world, the approach might help reveal inefficiencies and save money. For the FBI, finding intelligence gaps or discovering better methods could save lives.

The two-hour, semi-annual sessions—and the preparation leading up to them—can help reveal not only how much our 56 field offices know, but how they know it. What effective techniques can be adopted by other offices?...

“Everyone in that room heard from the Director about what he wants,” Harrington said. By meeting’s end, action items are clear. Headquarters knows what commanders are up against, and the field has unfiltered insight into Director Mueller’s priorities. “By asking the right questions, we’re engaging them to start thinking about it.”...

The FBI's Secret File Room

FBI Director Robert S. Mueller

An article in the Boston Globe this week, confirms previous Judiciary Report claims, regarding the FBI moving files out of their main offices and hiding them, when certain Freedom of Information Act requests come in, for information they do not wish to see the light of day in the public domain, as the agency's conduct in said matter is very illegal and immoral.

The Judiciary Report previously wrote on February 10, 2009, "They will hide files, compress them, move them out of the office, even deliberately list them under misspelled names in their database, to keep unconstitutional investigations quiet, which is illegal."

The Globe published an article about a secret off-site room the FBI hides files in, to thwart Freedom of Information Act searches and requests. The Judiciary Report was tipped off on this matter a few years ago and began writing about it as a matter of public interest. It is appalling to think, in a democratic government, such criminality and lack of transparency exists, at the hands of a rogue agency.

FBI gives a glimpse of its most secret layer

Globe Staff / March 29, 2010 - WASHINGTON — It is where the government has hidden the most secret information: plans to relocate Congress if Washington were attacked, dossiers on double agents, case files about high-profile mob figures and their politician friends, and a disturbing number of reports about the possible smuggling of atomic bombs into the United States.

It is also where the bureau stowed documents considered more embarrassing than classified, including its history of illegal spying on domestic political organizations and surveillance of nascent gay rights groups.

It is the FBI’s “special file room,’’ where for decades sensitive material has been stored separately from the bureau’s central filing system to restrict access severely and, in more sinister instances, some experts assert, prevent the Congress and the public from getting their hands on it...

Eric Holder Running From Congress

Eric Holder

U.S. Attorney General and Obama appointee, Eric Holder, is running from Congress. He postponed his appearance in Congress, that was slated to occur today, deferring it to April 14, 2010. The last time he appeared in Congress, he came across as incompetent and unprepared and senators verbally ripped him to shreds

Holder is widely being slammed in the mainstream press and by the general public online for a number of follies and critics are interpreting this postponement as fear on the part of the Attorney General. Members of Congress slammed today's no show.

I do not like how this man operates at all. So many people in the press and on the blogs, are complaining of his lack of transparency and sheer treachery in matters of law.

I've seen it firsthand in the Aisha v. FBI case. Rather than do the right and honorable thing, Holder and Mueller have tried every crooked legal maneuver in the world, to continue hiding Freedom of Information Act documents, while millions watch their misconduct - and they did it at a time I am physically ill and my life and health are at stake, due to conduct the FBI contributed to.

You're appalling and have no conscience or scruples. When you do things like that, you make a mockery of the nation's laws for the world to see. Who could respect something like that.

Sessions Slams Delayed Holder Hearing

March 23, 2010 5:45 pm - The top Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee criticized the decision to delay a scheduled oversight hearing with Attorney General Eric Holder Tuesday, taking the opportunity to flesh out his disagreements with the way the Justice Department has handled terrorism cases under his leadership.

“The last time Attorney General Holder testified before the Senate was November 18th of last year. Then in late January, following revelations that the Christmas Bomber had been hastily Mirandized—without consulting the relevant intelligence agencies—Republicans called for an immediate hearing with the Attorney General,” Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) said in a statement. “Unfortunately, that hearing never was never held. We were told instead that we would have an opportunity to question Attorney General Holder at a planned oversight hearing in March.”

“Now that won’t happen either. But while this hearing has been delayed, the Attorney General cannot delay action to repair his broken policies,” Sessions added...

AG Holder, Facing Hits From Left And Right, Gets Reprieve From Senate Hearing

Mar. 23, 2010, 8:26 AM - US Attorney General Eric Holder was scheduled to have a chat with the Senate today, but, with less than 24 hours on the clock, it was rescheduled for April 14.

The postponement is possibly due to the signing of the health care bill, but Republicans think Holder might be glad for the extra time. No matter when it happens, it will not be a passive event.

The hearing is officially billed as "oversight of the Department of Justice" but general consensus is he'll face strong questioning over his decision (which seems more and more likely to be reversed) to try some of the alleged 9/11 masterminds in federal court.

The Wall Street Journal has a full report today on criticisms lobbed from both the left and the right and suggest that "the controversies provoked by his decisions threaten to derail his career..."

ATTORNEY GENERAL HOLDER AND HIS NON-TRANSPARENCY

March 21, 2010 - In 1999, Eric Holder helped arrange Bill Clinton pardons for 16 unrepentant members of FALN who had been convicted of “a variety of charges that included conspiracy, sedition, violation of the Hobbes Act (extortion by force, violence or fear), armed robbery and illegal possession of weapons and explosives -- including large quantities of C-4 plastic explosive, dynamite and huge caches of ammunition.”

More and more Americans are discovering that the Obama Administration's definition of transparency is more Clintonian and semantic than it is honest and encouraging.

The latest embarrassment for the Obama White House is the discovery that Attorney General Eric Holder has been less than forthcoming about his activities prior to being appointed U.S. Attorney General.

This week, the U.S. Department of Justice celebrated the one-year anniversary of Attorney General Eric Holder’s 2009 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) guidelines.

Issued exactly one year ago, Holder's guidelines were supposed to aid President Barack Obama’s “new era of open government” by establishing a “criteria governing the presumption of disclosure” and creating “effective systems for responding to requests.”

Unfortunately, after only the first year under these heralded guidelines, legal watchdog group Judicial Watch reported on March 17 that its officials have experienced little improvement in U.S. government transparency or accountability.

In fact, a recent analysis finds that government secrecy has actually increased under Obama...

FBI Analysts Lied To Convict Innocent People

...Of Crimes They Did Not Commit

FBI Director Robert S. Mueller

To illustrate the treachery and corruption that exists at the Federal Bureau of Investigation, several FBI analysts have been exposed by the U.S. Court system as liars that willfully submitted knowingly false evidence, that convicted innocent minorities of crimes they did not commit, sending them to prison for decades.

Why? They are hateful racists and the FBI has an informal arrest quotas, demanding agents solve a certain amount of crimes, lest they get stuck in the FBI gulag and not make it to the executive level of the agency with higher pay and perks.

That is no way to run a law enforcement agency. It is about quality, not quantity. Yes, work at an efficient speed, but knowingly engaging in corruption and throwing innocent people in prison, just to have bodies to meet the quota is criminal and inexcusable.

The job does not offer great opportunities for advancement and there is so much bureaucracy at FBI headquarters in Washington, D.C. very few of them have clean hands. They done and looked the other way to very shameful things, under poor leadership, that cost innocent Americans and world citizens their lives and in quite a few instances, their health.

It's amazing that President Obama is speaking of "overhauling" everything under the sun in America, from health care to education, yet has woefully and negligently overlooked the FBI, the nation's first line of defense against terrorism and crime, that is the equivalent of a broken lock on the front door of the house that is America.

Suspicions about FBI analysts growing

Sunday, March 14, 2010 - The U.S. attorney's office in the District has found more than 100 cases since the mid-1970s that need to be reviewed because of potentially falsified and inaccurate tests by FBI analysts.

The report, filed in D.C. Superior Court late Friday, stems from an internal investigation by prosecutors after the exoneration in December of Donald E. Gates, who was falsely imprisoned for 28 years for the 1981 rape and slaying of a Georgetown University student.

The review was launched to examine 20 cases in which Justice Department officials questioned the validity of statements made by six FBI forensic analysts who were identified in a 1997 report by the department's office of inspector general...

A database of the FBI analysts names has been created to allow prosecutors to collect and research cases...

But Sandra Levick, chief of the special litigation division for the District's Public Defender Service, said the new report is "troubling" because "the government still does not know the number of people hurt by testimony from discredited FBI analysts, although it was given names beginning in 1997."...

Eric Holder Slammed For Hiding Documents From The U.S. Congress

U.S. Attorney General, Eric Holder and President Barack Obama

U.S. Attorney General, Eric Holder, has been slammed for hiding documents from Congress, relevant to his appointment to the post, by President Obama.

Holder authored reports and papers that needed to be submitted to Congress, during the time period they were vetting him for the job, but he hid them, which is a violation of the rules.

Mr. Holder seems to be fond of hiding documents, which tells the world he is not fit for the post. Following this line of corruption is going to get him in massive international trouble one day.

19 hours ago - WASHINGTON — Attorney General Eric Holder did not provide senators considering his nomination last year with all of the legal papers he had signed or written while in private practice, Justice Department officials disclosed Friday.

The department alerted the Senate Judiciary Committee about the lapse, listing seven cases in which Holder signed or filed legal briefs that were not previously disclosed. Six of those were so-called friend-of-the-court briefs, which were signed by numerous other ex-officials as well and offered positions on cases with which they were not directly involved...
