COI #131: The Deep State’s Role in Facebook’s Anti-Extremist Warnings

COI_Logo

On COI #131, Kyle and Will delve into the US case against Julian Assange, which was dealt a major blow after a key witness against the WikiLeaks founder admitted to lying to the FBI. An Icelander, the witness is a convicted pedophile and financial fraudster, but provided testimony for the DOJ's superseding indictment against Assange. Facebook is asking users to rat out their right-wing uncles, sending prompts to certain accounts warning that somebody they know might be flirting with an "extremist" ideology. As part a new effort against so-called "extremism," the platform has partnered...

FPF #240 – Fake News on Russiagate & North Korea

On FPF #240, I break down false and misleading information on Russiagate and North Korea. I discuss an article by Gareth Porter that debunks the claim that Russia hacked 21 state voter registration sites. Recent reporting on North Korea suggested that Donald Trump canceled a meeting with North Korea after reading a "belligerent" letter from Kim Jong Un. I review an article by Justin Raimondo that argues the truth is nuanced and the Trump/Un relationship is as bad as it may seem.  Links Gareth Porter on DHS Election Hacking Report Ted Galen Carpenter on Macedonia Justin Raimondo on North...

TSA justifies pat downs with op-eds — is my paper trail to blame?

Americans love to grouse about the Transportation Security Agency. I have caterwauled as loudly as anyone over the years. But I learned last week that some of TSA’s absurdities might be my fault. TSA is proud of its 2600 Behavior Detection Officers (BDOs) who lurk in airports surveilling how travelers swallow, sweat, and blink.  The Government Accountability Office walloped the program last week in a report on the official TSA “indicators” of terrorist intent that BDOs ferret out.  GAO concluded that 98 percent of the studies TSA invoked failed to provide “valid evidence” to support TSA’s...
