State Department Whistleblower: The Government Is Attempting to Intimidate Me Into Silence
— Ace

This would only hurt Obama if there was a pattern of this sort of thing in his Administration.

Fortunately for him, there's not at all. Whew.

So, here you go: Another story your media will completely embargo.

For some time, it's been the case that if you want the news, the last place on earth you'd look for it is in the so-called American News Organizations. But it gets worse, more Stalinist, every single day.

The State Department investigator who accused colleagues last week of using drugs, soliciting prostitutes, and having sex with minors says that Foggy Bottom is now engaged in an "intimidation" campaign to stop her.
Last week's leaks by Aurelia Fedenisn, a former State Department inspector general investigator, shined a light on alleged wrongdoing by U.S. officials around the globe. But her attorney Cary Schulman tells The Cable that Fedenisn has paid a steep price: "They had law enforcement officers camp out in front of her house, harass her children and attempt to incriminate herself."
...
Erich Hart, general counsel to the Inspector General, did not reply to a request for comment.
...

Schulman says the purpose of the visit was to get Fedenisn to sign a document admitting that she stole State Department materials, such as the memos leaked to CBS. Schulman says it was crucial that she didn't sign the document because her separation agreement with the State Department includes a provision allowing disclosures of misconduct. Furthermore, none of the materials were classified.
Schulman charged that sending law enforcement officers to pressure her into signing an agreement was heavy handed. "

Meanwhile, here's another part of what State covered-up.

The soap opera in Italy unfolded in the fall of 2010, when Moore became the Naples consul general after serving in the same capacity at the US Embassy in Port au Prince, Haiti. As a senior foreign-service officer, Moore could make as much as $179,700 a year, State Department data says.
Within days, he allegedly bedded a consulate employee, a single mom who fell in love with him.
...
Â“She informed anyone within earshot that she had had the abortion and had her tubes tied at his instruction,Â” Howard wrote. Â“Morale continued to sink as this soap opera played out in our workplace on a daily basis.Â”

Private personal misconduct? Not exactly:

Kerry Howard says she was bullied, harassed and forced to resign after she exposed US Consul General Donald MooreÂ’s alleged security-threatening shenanigans in the Naples, Italy, office.
...
Â“ItÂ’s cover-up after cover-up. ItÂ’s absolutely hideous,Â” she told The Post. Â“When our diplomats disrespect the Italians by hiring and firing them because they have seen too much Â— or use them for Â‘sex-erciseÂ’ Â— we have to question why we have diplomats abroad at taxpayer expense.Â”

So that's another whistleblower bullied by Hillary's State goons for speaking up about misbehavior.

In addition, the underlying misconduct is about abusing people in the host country of a consulate. Our diplomatic corps is there to make us look good, right?

Keep going until the IRSS is abolished, the buildings fumigated, and employees prosecuted for crimes against the peace. That could be our only hope, otherwise we get to shamefully tell our grandchildren how cowardly we all were, and how we gleefully handed absolute power over to a group of affirmative action hires. "But Grandpa, why?"

They have undermined the rule of law in this land. Once that is shaken, we turn into a state like Mexico. In Mexico, the rule of law was ruined a long time ago, so now everyone has to give bribes to anyone you deal with in gov't, just to hope you get fair treatment. Thats what this once great nation has to look forward to.

That still doesn't make sense to me. You have two parties that are part of a decision. That decision is sealed. Both parties want it to stay sealed. And a third party comes in and gets them unsealed?

I've never heard of anything even remotely like that.

Meanwhile, my friends that do secret squirrel type work are being told not to go to news sites on either their work or home computers because they will be prosecuted if secret documents ( leaked from the Guardian, WaPo, NYT or other places ) are found on their computers. You gotta love the transparency.

What's the logic there? The only people who aren't supposed to access publicly available formerly secret documents are the ones who were cleared to see them when they were still secret?

Oh, steevy, I have been worrying about you and your dad. Very glad that the surgery was successful. Have you asked them to give him something for the mental stress? I had to rain hell all over the hospital when my mom was having a bad time there. Tip: throw a fit, put it in writing, name names and pass out plenty of copies. It's not like they don't have all kinds of meds to give your dad some respite from this.

Via AP: Â“Because beyond these shores, right now, in scattered corners of the world, there are people living in the grip of conflict Â— ethnic conflict, religious conflict, tribal conflicts Â— and they know something better is out there. And theyÂ’re groping to find a way to discover how to move beyond the heavy hand of history, to put aside the violence. TheyÂ’re studying what youÂ’re doing. And theyÂ’re wondering, perhaps if Northern Ireland can achieve peace, we can, too. YouÂ’re their blueprint to follow. YouÂ’re their proof of what is possible Â— because hope is contagious.

a million years ago my dad had open heart surgery and they warned us about post op psychosis. He didn't have dementia or anything, he was only 60, but it happened.
