Foul DOJ Hypocrisy Of AG Eric Holder Revealed In Routine Support Of Police Violence And Civil Rights Violations In Every Case Before US Supreme Court

     Tuesday, 21 April 2015, WASHINGTON, D.C. - United States Attorney General (AG) Eric Holder is an absolute sickening hypocrite of the worst sort who parades himself around the communities of this nation holding himself out as a champion of the People's and particularly minorities such as African-Americans right for example not to be killed by the State for no reason at all as he presents and portrays himself and the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) he heads in apparent sympathy with victims of rampant police abuses such as unprovoked violence in the routine use of excessive force and civil rights violations such as citizens being shot in the back by police officers of the State while in fact the truth about AG Holder is quite the opposite as a review of the record of the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) AG Holder heads definitively proves that when these cases of the State's crimes against the People finally get before the United States Supreme Court in every single case without a single exception argued before the Court throughout the tenure of the Obama administration AG Holder's DOJ and its so-called "Civil Rights Division" has taken the side of the police and the State always defending police officers charged with out-of-control violence abuses against the American people and endemic civil rights violations against the People's fundamental rights such as not to be killed by the government whether one is needlessly shot eleven times by yet another cop emptying a full clip of bullets into the body of someone already clearly dead or if one is a mentally ill woman living in a mental health facility pepper sprayed in the face and then blown away by police shooting her for "threatening" them by holding a small bread knife.
     The Ninth Amendment previously has reported on the hypocrisy of AG Eric Holder DOJ's tragic actions or lack thereof which are directly responsible for the continuing unforgivable transgressions of the State against the American people needlessly ruining so many lives in the AG Holder DOJ's  absolute failure to fulfill President Obama's unequivocal presidential campaign promises to the people who got him elected to reform the criminal justice system especially in its plainly tragically wrong treatment of non-violent drug offenders (which President Obama long ago admitted he himself to be except he just was not caught so he could become President rather than perhaps have his own life ruined) which AG Holder hypocrisy now further has been documented extensively in the horrid record of AG Holder's DOJ in every single case encouraging U.S. Supreme Court rulings wrongly holding obviously unconstitutional law enforcement police violence abuses and civil rights violations against the People to be permitted as the law of the land.
     While police associations unsurprising support AG Holder unfortunately the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is cast as incorrectly sympathetic to AG Holder's DOJ although that largely could be because of the horrible record of preceding Republican AGs as to ignoring law enforcement abuses and especially those GOP appointees who committed such unpardonable abuses as using DOJ for everything they could to attempt to shield the Bush Administration and its Executive Branch agencies by issuing or endorsing completely bogus legal opinions such as attempting to shield from prosecution the NSA's obviously unconstitutional use of mass surveillance and metadata collection against the American people and most notably attempting to immunize the Bush Administration and its CIA with self-serving legal opinions trying to shield them from punishment for loathsome violations of United States and international law such as the Geneva Conventions for their commission of international war crimes against humanity committing their routine worldwide infliction of torture and indefinite uncharged confinement as well as kidnapping of persons of many nations all of which is no longer a secret to anyone in the United States or the world.
     Not that AG Holder's DOJ has done a single thing to charge those for these crimes who in the name of and as representatives of the United States now are well documented as having committed repulsive and grotesque criminal acts of torture on human beings in violation of United States and international law even as Federal Bureau Investigation (FBI) Director James Comey former Bush administration Deputy Attorney General at DOJ has taken it upon himself needlessly to imply the complicity of Poland and Hungary in the perpetration of the horrors of the Holocaust drawing international outrage against this representative of the United States government who would have the audacity to for no reason at all at this time broadcast to the world such sentiments when the United States itself has proven to be among the worst human rights violators and abusers in modern times whether by torturing human beings or locking them up domestically in prisons as become an entrenched industry in astounding numbers that drawf the percentage of the population incarcerated in all other civilized countries.
     Readers interested in more information about the above most unfortunate undeniably abysmal record of AG Eric Holder's DOJ before the Supreme Court always having in every case without exception supported law enforcement abuses such as the excessive force of police violence and officers' civil rights violations against the American people encouraging the Supreme Court to make these abuses contrary to all principles upon this great nation was founded the law of the land only so they can be repeated over and over again no doubt just getting worse and worse due to the encouragement of ultimately a lack of criminal prosecution can to the link below.

Friendly N.S.A. Director Admiral Michael "Mike" Rogers (Pictured Below) And Yahoo Senior Executive Have Cordial Disagreement Over Cyber-Spying At New America Washington, D.C. Cyber-Security Conference Signature Event

       Wednesday, 25 February 2015, Washington, D.C. - N.S.A. Director Admiral Michael "Mike" Rogers
shows his true colors (and fangs) at Monday's Washington, D.C. New America cyber-
security conference at suggestion that the N.S.A. is not above the United States
Constitution but actually might have to at least pass the "laugh test" pretending that it
makes "best efforts" to follow it at least generally speaking as the out-of-control 
N.S.A. makes demands to further expand its fanatical universal illegal domestic
spying on all United States citizens to encompass all encrypted transmissions including
of ordinary American consumers. Mr. Rogers is joined in his deranged sentiment of
entitlement to ignore completely fundamental rights of Americans by F.B.I. Director
James Comey and United States Attorney General Eric J. Holder all of whom
apparently are "back door men" when it comes to speaking in code (or "The Switch"
as the Washington Post calls it). The Ninth Amendment editorial board passes on the
below Washington Post article without comment other than Mssrs. Rogers and Comey
should already by in prison for a history of atrocious unconstitutional civil rights
surveillance and domestic spying violations as should Mr. Holder
for not prosecuting them (not to mention George W. Bush Administration and C.I.A.
officials guilty of similar crimes as well as for crimes against humanity for conspiracy
to torture C.I.A. never charged nor convicted "detainees"). Just sayin'. . . .  

Here’s how the clash between the NSA Director and a senior Yahoo executive went down.

 February 23  


In an unusual public exchange, the director of the National Security Agency and a senior Yahoo executive clashed over cyber-spying Monday, illustrating the growing chasm between Washington and Silicon Valley over whether intelligence officials should have broad access to the products being developed by the nation's top technology firms.
For a normally staid Washington cyber-security conference, this one hosted by New America, the tense back-and-forth had the packed audience of executives, senior policy makers, bureaucrats and journalists buzzing.
Speaking at the signature event of the conference, NSA Director Adm. Mike Rogers called for a "legal framework" that would enable law enforcement and anti-terrorism officials to tap into encrypted data flowing between ordinary consumers -- echoing a stance laid out by other administration officials, including FBI Director James Comey and Attorney General Eric J. Holder. But technology executives as well as many cybersecurity experts argue there is no way to build in such "backdoors" without fundamentally undermining the security that protects online communications around the world. In response to recent revelations about government snooping, firms such as Apple and Google have designed their latest mobile software to make it impossible for the companies to turn over data from smartphones and tablet computers to police -- even when authorities have a search warrant.
Roger's remarks were later challenged by Alex Stamos, Yahoo's chief information security officer, during a question-and-answer session.
"So it sounds like you agree with Director Comey that we should be building defects into the encryption in our products so that the US government can decrypt…" Stamos began. (These remarks were verified by a transcript provided by the Web site Just Security.)
"That would be your characterization," Rogers said, interrupting him.
"No, I think... all of the best public cryptographers in the world would agree that you can’t really build backdoors in crypto," Stamos replied. "That it’s like drilling a hole in the windshield."
"I’ve got a lot of world-class cryptographers at the National Security Agency," Rogers said.
"I’ve talked to some of those folks and some of them agree too, but…" Stamos said.
"Oh, we agree that we don’t accept each others’ premise," Rogers replied, interrupting again, as laughter erupted across the audience.
"If we’re going to build defects/backdoors or golden master keys for the U.S. government, do you believe we should do so — we have about 1.3 billion users around the world — should we do for the Chinese government, the Russian government, the Saudi Arabian government, the Israeli government, the French government?" Stamos asked.
"So, I’m not gonna… I mean, the way you framed the question isn’t designed to elicit a response," Rogers replied.
"Well, do you believe we should build backdoors for other countries?" Stamos asked again.
"My position is — hey look, I think that we’re lying that this isn’t technically feasible. Now, it needs to be done within a framework. I’m the first to acknowledge that. You don’t want the FBI and you don’t want the NSA unilaterally deciding, so, what are we going to access and what are we not going to access? That shouldn’t be for us. I just believe that this is achievable. We’ll have to work our way through it. And I’m the first to acknowledge there are international implications. I think we can work our way through this," Rogers answered.
"So you do believe then, that we should build those for other countries if they pass laws?" Stamos asked a third time.
"I think we can work our way through this," Rogers replied.
"I’m sure the Chinese and Russians are going to have the same opinion," Stamos said.
"I said I think we can work through this," Rogers said.
Rogers, in his initial remarks, was also critical of former NSA contractor Edward Snowden, saying his disclosures revealed NSA surveillance tactics to terrorists.
“It has had a material impact on our ability to generate insights as to what terrorist groups around the world are doing,” he said.
For his part, Snowden, who has been in the limelight this week after a film documenting his efforts won an Academy Award, wrote Monday that he regretted not leaking his trove of secret documents earlier.
“Had I come forward a little sooner, these programs would have been a little less entrenched," Snowden wrote on the Web site Reddit. "And those abusing them would have felt a little less familiar with and accustomed to the exercise of those powers."
