Bob McCarty has connected the dots to a story that otherwise would not have seen the light of day. He has exposed the ongoing and unceasing activities of a small group of US government bureaucrats that should outrage the entire US population.
It is unconscionable that administration-after-administration has allowed this national disgrace to continue unabated for the past 50 years. The safety and security of our military members should trump the agenda of a handful of power hungry bureaucrats. The absolute faith by these bureaucrats in a scientifically flawed device – namely the polygraph – appears to have caused significant damage to the international reputation and security of the United States.
Further, the stamp of approval given to the polygraph by the US government appears to have also caused serious damage to other nations as well – Iraq, Afghanistan and Mexico to name a few. The true extent of the damage caused by polygraph will perhaps never be known, since the US government does not publicly admit to such gross maleficence and failures. However, the cases brought to light by Bob McCarty are a damning indictment against continued support of the polygraph by the US government.
It is amazing that otherwise world-class agencies such as the FBI, CIA, DOD, and DHS continue to rely on a 100 year old technology that is scientifically proven to be worthless for intelligence screening operations. This book should be required reading for all involved in the “War on Terror” both at home and abroad. Bob McCarty should be commended for exposing this pseudoscientific government-backed fraud.
A fellow nonfiction author, whose name I will not share for security reasons, tackles subjects that certain elements within the federal government consider “taboo.” Kinda like me. Almost four years ago, she warned me about what had happened to her — while working on a book that went on to become a New York Times best seller, that is — and said it might happen to me. Now, it seems, maybe she was right.
Only four days after I revealed the new cover design for my second nonfiction book, THE CLAPPER MEMO, both of the word processing programs I use to write my manuscripts crashed and would not reopen.
It’s not as if I didn’t pay attention to my fellow author’s warning. In fact, I made it a point to disconnect my computer from the internet every time I was working on my manuscript. Well, almost every time. Dang it!
What is it in my next book that some would rather not see made public? Some hints:
• In THE CLAPPER MEMO, I’ll share details of a 40-year technological turf war involving many players. Inside the Pentagon. At some of the nation’s top universities. In places like Afghanistan, Iraq, Guantanamo Bay and Mexico. And in local and state police jurisdictions across the United States.
• In THE CLAPPER MEMO, I’ll share never-before-published documents and insider details obtained from the very people who interrogated detainees at Guantanamo Bay and from the very people who interrogated members of Saddam Hussein’s “Deck of Cards.”
• In THE CLAPPER MEMO, I’ll connect the dots between three memos — including one signed in 2007 by James R. Clapper Jr. — and the “Green-on-Blue” attacks (a.k.a., “insider attacks”) by so-called “allies” in Afghanistan against their U.S. and coalition colleagues.
• After four years of work on THE CLAPPER MEMO, I found all roads lead back to the technological turf war and to the memo signed by Clapper — then serving as Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence, now serving as Director of National Intelligence, our nation’s highest intelligence official.
Do I have any evidence that my system has been infiltrated? No. According to some in the military and intelligence communities who’ve assisted me in gathering information that will appear in THE CLAPPER MEMO, it’s unlikely I’ll ever find any.
Thankfully, I do have backup copies of my manuscript and other computers on which to work.
If you think Islamic terrorists are the only people Americans should be concerned about on this 11th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, think again.
If you think what you’ve heard about Operation Fast and Furious is about as bad as anything can get when it involves the U.S. Department of Justice, think again.
Beginning at the 4-minute mark of the video above, the story of one man’s investigation into the August 1995 murder of Kenneth Trentadue inside the U.S. Bureau of Prisons’ Federal Transfer Center in Oklahoma City will chill you to the bone. The story is told by Trentadue’s brother, Salt Lake City attorney Jesse Trentadue.
After watching the video, please take time to share it.
Members of the mainstream news media largely ignored the words of a fully-credentialed document forensics expert who, in an exclusive Atlas Shrugs article four years ago, concluded that the birth certificate offered as authentic by then-presidential candidate Barack Obama is bogus. Today, those same people are ignoring another expert opinion about the document — that of Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio.
Sheriff Joe Arpaio
Sheriff Arpaio, the man sometimes referred to as “America’s toughest sheriff,” held a news conference Tuesday during which Mike Zullo, head of the sheriff’s Cold Case Posse, announced the findings of the group’s “exhaustive examination into President Obama’s long form birth certificate.”
Standing alongside Sheriff Arpaio, Zullo told reporters that the information he developed confirms that the document presented to the American public by the White House in April 2011 is undoubtedly fraudulent. See the Cold Case Posse’s news release for more details.
One would think that such a claim would generate news far and wide. But it did not. Instead, the major television news networks — ABC, CBS and MSNBC among them — seemed more inclined to publicize the content of Attorney General Eric Holder‘s Department of Justice news release about that agency’s soon-to-be-litigated civil lawsuit against “the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office (MCSO) and Sheriff Joseph M. Arpaio, arising from unconstitutional and unlawful actions by the defendants.”
Thankfully, as the video below shows, Sheriff Arpaio isn’t the type to stand by idly as members of the leftist media try to smear him.
If forced to choose between the likes of socialists (i.e., Barack Obama), racketeering criminals (i.e., Eric Holder) and people like Sheriff Arpaio, I think most Americans would choose the latter. I know I would. What say you?
Yesterday, led by Ranking Member Elijah E. Cummings (D-Md.), Democrats on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee released a 95-page report on their investigation of Operation: Fast & Furious, the controversial gun-running operations that’s taken place during Attorney General Eric Holder’s watch at the Department of Justice.
Though I won’t go into many details about the smoke-and-mirrors report labeled “Fatally Flawed,” I will offer a quick look at the most-blatant evidence of denial in this report which appears on page 4 of the report’s Executive Summary:
No evidence that senior officials authorized gun-walking in Fast & Furious.
I will also point out the “Blame Bush” aspect of the report — that is, the subhead on the cover: Five Years of Gunwalking in Arizona.
Take a look at the report and the conclusions reached therein. If you believe the report accurate, please let me know, because I have some prime ocean-front property in Oklahoma that I’ve been wanting to sell for some time now.
This tidbit came in this morning from a well-connected friend, and I wanted to put in on the record just in case it comes true:
Eric Holder
“Just heard from a little bird who lives with in the Washington D. C. beltway… Attorney General Holder is going to resign, perhaps by this Friday.”
Perhaps my last article about the “Fast & Furious” scandal, republished Dec. 3 by Andrew Breitbart at BigGovernment.com, pushed him to the brink.
Stay tuned!

While Eric Holder is getting a lot of media attention these days related to his involvement in the controversial ATF gun-running program known as Operation Fast and Furious, Salt Lake City attorney Jesse Trentadue said he “was way ahead of the curve” when it came to pointing out the attorney general’s many flaws — and skeletons. He points to a scathing 4-page letter (PDF) he sent to Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) Dec. 19, 2008, as proof.
In the letter, Trentadue told the chair of the powerful Senate Judiciary Committee the following:
Attorney General Eric Holder
You need to know that Eric Holder, now nominated to become Attorney General, played a key role in covering up the torture-murder of my brother, Kenneth Michael Trentadue. You also need to know that Mr. Holder did this while serving as Deputy Attorney General and Acting Attorney General from 1997-2001.
This is not just my shocking opinion. It is also the opinion of many Americans. More importantly, it is supported by the Justice Department’s records and actions that came to light as a result of my family’s efforts to obtain a certain measure of justice for my brother’s murder.
Kenneth was killed in Oklahoma City in August of 1995. My family has spent over 13 years investigating my brother’s gruesome murder, including bringing a wrongful death lawsuit in federal court in 1997. In that case, the Justice Department hid and destroyed evidence that would have exposed my brother’s murders, and we believe that Mr. Holder was directly involved in those acts of obstruction of justice.
In a footnote appearing on page one of that letter, Trentadue noted the following:
“Despite the destruction of evidence, the court awarded my family a $1 million judgment. We have used that money to offer a $250,000 reward for the people who killed Kenney. That offer is posted at: www.kmtreward.com. This site also contains the irrefutable evidence that my brother was murdered, which evidence was kept from us by the Justice Department.”
Trentadue’s letter continues:
To this day, however, despite the efforts of my family, numerous journalists, and Congress, the Justice Department has been able to hide this terrible story — and its culpability in the death of my brother Kenneth. More importantly, then Deputy Attorney General Eric Holder was assigned to be the point man in blocking my family’s efforts to bring my brother Kenneth Trentadue’s murderers to justice. Now, President-elect Barack Obama has nominated Eric Holder to be the new Attorney General.
The paper trail on Mr. Holder’s actions is scant. However, e-mails and handwritten notes by those working under Mr. Holder in the Justice Department have surfaced. These documents paint a clear picture of a wide-ranging and cynical scheme, run directly by Mr. Holder, to quash my family’s efforts to have my brother’s murder investigated, and to deflect congressional oversight and media attention from the shocking circumstances of his death.
According to these documents, a significant part of this plan involved Mr. Holder convincing Congress not to inquire into my brother’s murder. The plan called for Mr. Holder to meet with Senator Hatch on October 9, 1997, just prior to the Justice Department’s issuance of a Press Release announcing that the federal grand jury supposedly “investigating” my brother’s murder had failed to charge anyone with this crime.
The stated purpose of this meeting between Mr. Holder and Senator Hatch was to defuse Judiciary Committee oversight and media inquiry into the circumstances of my brother’s death. In fact, one e-mail states that “we ain’t looking for press on this. Hill takes priority.”
But that meeting apparently did not go as planned by Mr. Holder, because the next day, October 10, 1997, Senator Hatch gave an exclusive interview to Fox News in which he spoke out against the results of the grand jury and the Justice Department’s handling of the case.
Rather than share Trentadue’s summary of what Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), told Fox News during the interview Oct. 10, 1997, I offer video (below) of the interview itself.
Did you catch that? Senator Hatch said, “There’s a lot wrong with this case.” Not surprisingly, Jesse Trentadue agrees and points anyone willing to listen to the remaining content of his letter to Senator Leahy (PDF) before noting the following:
UPDATE 12/03/11 at 2:25 p.m. Central: Trentedue tells me that the reward mentioned in his letter expired without anyone claiming it. “That tells me that some very powerful people were involved in my brother’s murder and the cover up of that crime!” he said.
