UPDATE: Fast & Furious: CBS News investigative journalist Sharyl Attkisson details how the WH screamed and the DOJ yelled at her for daring to do her job

Update: It is being reported by Mark Hemingway of the Weekly Standard that CBS News appears to be “silencing” investigative journalist Sharyl Attkisson. Read the story below the video.

The first three minutes provides an update on documents recently released showing AG Eric Holder knew about Fast & Furious as early as July 2010, yet he told Congress in May 2011 he’d only “learned about it over the last few weeks”. Why does it feel like we’ve all been here before? Uh, that’s right, it’s because we have…countless times. Following the three minute update, Ms. Attkisson details her investigation and when she learned about this obvious contradiction in Holder’s testimony, she phoned the public affairs dept at the DOJ to get a statement for the record about this “oh, I misunderstood the question” and got yelled at. She then attempted to get a statement from the WH and got screamed at. Sounds a bit like Romper Room to me…

Is CBS News Silencing Fast and Furious Reporter?

by Mark Hemingway

“Yesterday, CBS News investigative reporter Sharyl Attkisson told radio show host Laura Ingraham that the White House yelled and swore at her over her reporting on the Fast and Furious gunrunning scandal tied to the deaths of two U.S. law enforcement agents. Attkisson also revealed that she’d also been yelled at by the Justice Department.”

“Today, I called CBS News in an attempt to interview Attkisson. I was told by CBS News senior vice president of communications Sonya McNair that Attkisson would be unavailable for interviews all week. When I asked why Attkisson would be unavailable, McNair would not say.”

“I’ve also heard from a producer at another media outlet that has previously booked Attkisson that they tried to book her since she made news with the Laura Ingraham interview yesterday. They were also told that she would be unavailable.”

Meltdown – The men who crashed the world Part 1/4

And not one of these SOB’s has lost a friggin thing! Not one has spent the first second locked up behind bars! Not one has lost their self gorging of high living because the taxpayer is on the hook to try and pay these debts off! Not one has even admitted or taken any kind of responsibility whatsoever for their own over blown, sociopathic, maniacal hubris! Not one of them! How in the hell does this happen in a just world? It doesn’t, because our world, as constructed by these same mad men, is not one that is just.

The T-Room will post the remaining segments to this investigation as they become available.

by Doug Eberhardt, Buy Gold and Silver Safely

What the heck is going on these days with the banks? More and more issues are arising with our nations banks causing concern for the investing public.

I wanted to make people aware of what was really going on in the banking industry as it is this sector of the economy that keeps the Federal Reserve illusion of stability alive. If the People lost faith in the banking system, we would sink into a depression. From the article; [Read more…]

And he warns that we are writing code we can’t understand, with implications we can’t control.”

Keiser Report: Looting – low-income/high-income – What's the difference?

Great show today. Stacy tee’s it up with several examples of how kid’s who are looting are punished vs the Ivy League banksters who looted all don’t even get investigated let alone charged of any crime. Two sets of laws – one for the peasants and another for the criminal “elite” class. Following Stacy’s piece, Max talks to former bank regulator, William K. Black, who made sure the Savings & Loan bankster thugs paid for their “looting” yours and my pocket.

Pitchfork rally update: Palin takes on CNN for claiming Obama vetted more than Her; Author of Georgia eligibility bill singled out in redistricting for removal

On Friday August, 12th Pixel Patriot hosted a Skype conference with ex-CIA espionage officer Kent Clizbe, Carl Swensson, Chairman of the Clayton County GOP and Arnie Rosner. Constitutional attorney Mario Apuzzo was scheduled to join in on the call but was unable to attend. The discussion centered around candidate eligibility and the vetting process. Mr. Clizbe agreed that Barack Obama was not vetted in 2008. He explained how there needs to be an “apparatus” in place at the state level to ensure candidates are scrutinized before being placed on the ballot. [Read more…]

Georgia's 'Pitchfork Rally' – Kick-off Event to Pass the "Presidential Eligibility Assurance Act"

by Helen Tansey

Fourteen states, with Republican’s leading the charge, introduced legislation between 2010 and 2011 that went to the heart of voters growing realization that an ineligible candidate and his Party apparatus hoodwinked Secretary’s of State Board of Elections by placing said ineligible candidate on their state ballots who the majority of voters then elected to the most powerful position in the world, the United States Presidency.  These 14 states include: Arizona, Connecticut, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania (Sept 2011), Tennessee and Texas.

Obviously, as demonstrated by the actions of these Republican state legislators and one Democratic Governor, they share in the over 50 + 1 of voters growing concerns about their state’s utter lack of control over who gains access to their respective state ballots, and by extension their voters and electoral college members, concerning the Presidential/Vice Presidential elections.

AE911Truth on Canada's new TV series – "The Conspiracy Show" w/ Richard Syrret.mov

Visit AE911Truth to learn what more than 1,300 professional Architects and Engineers are saying about how the three towers, North, South and Building 7 collapsed. Why didn’t NIST investigate for explosives and/or demolition material? And why does NIST continue to refuse to test for such material?

Here is AE911Truth’s newest video demanding a “real” scientific investigation into the destruction of the North and South Towers AND Building 7. No such investigation has ever been conducted. The NIST Report that supposedly served as the governments investigation has been rejected as scientifically based by 1,300 Architects and Engineers plus countless other professionals who have arrived at the same conclusion. Why does the federal government continue to stonewall such a request?

EXCLUSIVE: Fired Army Whistleblower Receives $970K for Exposing Halliburton No-Bid Contract in Iraq

From DemocracyNow!

“Bunnatine “Bunny” Greenhouse, the former chief oversight official of contracts at the Army Corps of Engineers, has reached a $970,000 settlement six years after she was demoted for publicly criticizing a multi-billion-dollar, no-bid contract to Halliburton—the company formerly headed by then-Vice President Dick Cheney. Greenhouse had accused the Pentagon of unfairly awarding the contract to Halliburton subsidiary Kellogg Brown & Root. Testifying before Congress in June 2005, she called the contract the worst case of government abuse she had ever witnessed in her 20-year career. Just two months after that testimony, Greenhouse was demoted at the Pentagon, ostensibly for “poor performance…”

The Story of Obama: All in The Company. Part V — final report in a five-part series

(Editor’s note: This is Part V in a five-part investigative series researched and written by Wayne Madsen of Wayne Madsen Reports. This series touches on how Obama’s grandfather, grandmother, mother, both fathers as well as himself all work/worked for the Central Intelligence Agency, hence, the title of the series “All in The Company”. This series was written in August 2010 with several follow-up investigative reports providing further detail clearly demonstrating a shadowy web of connections. The T-Room will be posting these additional reports throughout the summer as well, Parts I – IV of this series can be found at the end of this final report. The T-Room wishes to thank Mr. Madsen for bringing this detail of information out into the open for all to read and to be informed not only about who the man is serving as POTUS but to also learn how he got there and who he has selected to surround him.)

In this, the last of a five-part series on how Barack Obama, Jr. is a creation of the Central Intelligence Agency, WMR delves into the behavior modification, creative leadership, and phenomenological research programs that were at full throttle while Obama was an employee of CIA front Business International Corporation (BIC).

In 1984, while Obama was working as an editor at BIC in Manhattan, CIA deputy director for intelligence Robert Gates, who Obama retained as his Secretary of Defense from the Bush administration, renamed the CIA’s Political Psychology Division the Political Psychology Center (PPC) and transferred the group from the Office of Global Issues (OGI) to the Office of Scientific and Weapons Research (OSWR).

The Story of Obama: All in the Company — Part IV

(Editor’s Note: The T-Room continues the investigative series by Wayne Madsen of Wayne Madsen Reports.

Barack Obama’s employment as an editor for CIA front Business International Corporation (BIC) after his graduation from Columbia University in 1983, came at a time when such small business and political risk consulting firms were mushrooming and their ranks growing with retired senior CIA personnel. The expansion of BIC and similar firms in the early 1980s also came at a time when major corporations were phasing out their internal risk departments and relying more on companies like BIC.

However, Obama’s contacts with the CIA came earlier than his work for BIC. Obama’s attendance at Occidental College in Los Angeles from 1979 to 1981 is significant considering the college’s close ties with the CIA. Occidental’s President, Richard C. Gilman, who retired in 1988, was a habitué of Los Angeles’s version of New York’s Council on Foreign Relations, the Los Angeles World Affairs Council (WAC). As a director of the WAC, Gilman rubbed shoulders with fellow WAC directors John McCone, a former CIA director; Simon Ramo, chairman of top CIA contractor TRW, Inc.; and the wealthy oil magnate Armand Hammer, chairman of Occidental Petroleum, himself no stranger to intelligence-oriented intrigue.

Tribal officials received word of the spill on Tuesday, but it remains unclear when, or why the pipeline, which is managed by FX Drilling, actually began leaking oil.”

WMR previously reported on the CIA links of President Obama’s mother, father, step-father, grandmother to the CIA. Not much is known about Obama’s grandfather, Stanley Armour Dunham, who Obama mistakenly referred to as “his father” in two speeches, one recently to the Disabled American Veterans.

What is officially known about Stanley Armour Dunham is that he served with the 9th Air Force in Britain and France prior to and after the D-Day invasion. After the war, Dunham and his wife, Madelyn and his daughter Stanley Ann — Obama’s mother — moved to Berkeley, California; El Dorado, Kansas; Seattle; and Honolulu. Armour Dunham is said to have worked for a series of furniture stores. [Read more…]
