We can read in throughout history about Military Coups. The most recent one in Egypt does strike fear in the establishment because the Army threw out the Muslim Brotherhood. Now the people in Egypt might be in the position of out of the frying pan into the fire because what would the long term effects be and will there be a republican form of government?

Something the Muslim Brotherhood did not offer.I just hope there is long term benefit where the people have a life of stability in Egypt. Continue reading “A Fascist Coup de ‘at, A Staged Coup? A Collapsing US Government? Or Patriot Military Coup in America?”

Want to understand how an organism really works? Take a look at its plumbing. Figure out where the pipes fit together. That’s the approach I take to national security and that’s the spirit behind this look at the structure of one of the most important institutions in U.S. intelligence: the National Security Agency.
Some intelligence organizations, such as the National Reconnaissance Office and the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency, have declassified most of their organizational charts. The NRO develops, launches and controls spy satellites; the NGA analyzes and distribute imagery. For these agencies, the plumbing matters less than what flows through the pipes, which is highly classified. Continue reading “What the NSA’s Massive Org Chart (Probably) Looks Like”

Was it just cheaper to mock up the documents than to provide the real ones? Did banks figure they simply had enough power over regulators, politicians and the courts to get away with it? (They were probably right about that one.) Continue reading “Your mortgage documents are fake!”
