Nothing to see here...

The CIA forgot about a bunch of classified documents stashed in the Rockefellers barn

 

The vault apparently remained in place, and the documents undisturbed, until 1979. According to a formerly CONFIDENTIAL memo, the vault fell through the cracks as a result of a unique situation. The situation would have remained lost between the cracks if not for the attempt to give the barn away, and the subsequent notice to CIA from Judge Harold Tyler. The matter had, as it turned out, been completely lost to the Agency, whose Special Security Center didnt have any records on the Rockefeller SCIF until after Judge Tyler contacted CIA about it.

Are you saying that the group that's planning the destruction of US democracy can't get its act together to catalog an old barn?

No, in your rush to mock you once again fly right by the point. Put your thinking hat on and brush off your history books.

 

Many have believed, for years, CIA was in fact established not to be an agency of the federal government, but as an intelligence agency for Wall Street and big finance. This is clear evidence of that and more, namely that we live in something more akin to The Most Serene Republic of Venice than we do a functioning democratic republic: a financial oligarchy disguised as a republic, complete with it's own version of the Council of 10 -- with the CIA playing that role -- conducting its own foreign policy, espionage, and covert operations at the behest of the oligarchy while forcing the citizens of Venice to pay for it.

 

What this story is actually demonstrating is three fold:

 

1) There was no precedent for storing classified documents on private property after an official left office (and there was no precedent for everyone in the Rockefeller staff to have access to this SCIF vault as the article makes clear happened)

 

2) NAR continued to do so with impunity which suggests:

 

3) The suspicions of a CIA-Wall Street connection passed from the realm of speculation and into hard fact. The pattern of this connection which began with Allen Dulles and his connections to Sullivan and Cromwell, and continued long after Dulles' demise, went through at least the Nixon-Ford era.

Riiight. The old Wall Street/CIA alliance. You'd figure that a bunch that's this smart and connected would have prevented the subprime meltdown.

 

Or let me guess, that was also part of the plan?

What's your industry again?

 

Wall Street or CIA, depending on the temperature outside.

USA TODAY COLUMN: Preet Bharara Proves Trump Right.

“I want to be clear here — Bharara’s refusal to resign wasn’t about principle. It was about putting himself publicly on the side of anti-Trump Democrats, no doubt in the expectation of future rewards, political or professional. It was not a brave act. It was, in fact, a species of corruption.”

UPDATE: Hey, lookie here: Consultants say Bharara is well-positioned for elected office bid.

I think he's more like Saul Berenson.

:beer:

 

Though having worked with the man, I'm not sure I should toast that...

 

 

My bad. But Greg can't carry that kind of epic beard.

 

This is true. My current beard is a bit scraggly:

What's wrong with him? Is he a douche in real life?

 

He has a well earned reputation as being tough to work with. Though, having worked on a show he famously snubbed, my bias may be showing.
