Saturday, 6 September 2014, RICHMOND, VA - In what appears to be a growing national epidemic of criminal misdoing by elected and appointed Republican government officials as well as their cronies and family members Virginia's former Republican Governor Bob McDonnell and his wife Maureen this past Thursday 4 September 2014 were convicted by a federal jury on "overwhelming evidence" of corruption charges encompassing conspiracy, bribery and extortion. Despite Republican pundits' unrealistically trite public dismissal of the federal indictments against the pair as unfounded not unlike the current case of federally indicted Texas Idiot Governor Rick "Payback" Perry the jury apparently did not agree characterizing the evidence against the Republican former Governor and his wife as "overwhelming" and in just seventeen hours of deliberations returning with guilty verdicts on eleven federal corruption counts against McDonnell and nine federal corruption counts against his wife Maureen. Republican pundits and the pair reportedly responded with "shock" to the verdicts which could land them in federal prison for the rest of their lives.
The link below is to the most recent New York Times article to be published today regarding the prospects of the pair's appeals particularly expected to be based on one of the Court's jury instructions which contains further links in the article's body and sidebar to earlier Times articles providing further details on the trial and Thursday's convictions.

The Ninth Amendment to the Constitution is the strongest statement therein that powers not expressly granted the State are retained as rights of the People. The State has misconstrued, misrepresented, ignored, and denied the People's rights by elimination of protections reserved alone to them, not recognized by the Supreme Court, the Legislative, and worst the Executive Branch in the illegitimate exercise of draconian powers which unlawfully disparage the inalienable rights of the People.

U.S. Justice Department "National Security" Division One More Reason To Feel Safe In Your Prison Cell
Saturday, 26 October 2013, WASHINGTON, D.C. - The United States Department of "Justice" (DOJ) reportedly after more than five years of prosecuting criminal cases illegally withholding evidence from criminal defendants presumably now languishing in prisons around the Nation along with other rather variously unfortunate casualties of the "War On The U.S Constitution", under what the New York Times rather generously calls a "narrow" reading by DOJ's "National Security" Division (bet that makes readers sleep better knowing along with the rest of the crowd of federal military forces, other armed forces, secret forces, special forces, contract forces, departments, bureaus, agencies, committees and patrols we now may sleep peacefully with our empty wallets at our bedsides or locked up somewhere outside our prison cell knowing that we have even more lawyers in suits than we probably already even knew or suspected) violating the clearly established restraints of the U.S. Constitution in defense of that document from any and all terrorists so that we unequivocally, unflinchingly, unintelligibly may say: "We won. We beat ourselves. Hurrah!"
What on earth could merit such a run-on sentence overspilling its banks in an unrestrained (being THEIR very least favorite MOST frightening thought) torrent of words in a conspicuously unbalanced paragraph fairly (or not) screaming to be CONTAINED! Well dear readers basically that would be the not altogether appealing idea of explaining all this. And why we the editorial board of the Ninth Amendment believe the New York Times in this case let DOJ off far too easily our interpretation being that the entire premise of the article to which the link below will lead is flawed to the extent the disclosure of this heinous behavior is any sort of reasoned "policy decision". We agree vigorously with Amnesty International that what we have here is a pure and simple case of DOJ flaunting its sacred obligation to the promotion of justice but rather with its malfeasance for more than five years breaking the law illegally trying yet more of our population and only coming clean (doubtful) now for no better reason than it was CAUGHT IN A LIE TO THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT, and if the Solicitor General cannot do the time, he should not have done the crime. As they say. You decide.

The Sudden Disappearance Of http/t.co/1kXhhiBrBe
Friday, 19 July 2013, SAN FRANCISCO - The ubiquitous appearance in various statistical compilations and analyses of the referring site and URL http/t.co/1kXhhiBfBE has been lost neither on the editorial staff of the Ninth Amendment nor other official entities unmasking parties of interest in the convergence of recent diverse investigations of an apparent conspiracy to improperly monitor and collect information with illegal intent and means falling within the scope of elements appearing to comprise those both of relatively recently enacted cybercrimes and other laws which have existed so long as peoplekind have sadly operated from and acted upon bad motives.
Possible candidates for criminal activities as previously noted in our most recent posts have included a range of possible counts from those dating from the common law to others appearing in the statute books only in recent years with the advent of, i.e., identity theft and an ever-broadening array of others reflecting the seriousness with which our society has come to take the potential for compromise of its most personal information through the vagaries of the "information age" and the vast potential for abuse which it affords those who are so inclined to avail themselves of whatever means it affords them to leverage wrongful acts such that they are in a position to pose a threat and harm to a far broader range of victims than in times past.
In any case the Ninth Amendment Log does not as always accept remuneration of any type nor in any way coordinate or disclose in advance to those whom we might mention in a post a favorable comment which is based solely on our own opinion and experience with some product or service solely motivated by our own inclination to do so. Here in examining seeming oddities of results using familiar tools in our own amateur attempts to collect information on sites such as the one mentioned in the header and first sentence of this post we find ourselves having visited a site with which we have had frequent prior experience, www.webrankstats.com, but in this case finding it leading to sources intentionally stripped of identifying information.
Readers who are not yet familiar with sites of this type, meaning that which is the one directly above, may find it interesting to visit it or other like sites or those from which it compiles information, in order to collect more information on sites of interest to them, including their history, performance, progress amongst its peers on the web and so on. Meanwhile it has been our fascination along with sleep deprivation recently to have become acquainted with individuals for whom such sites are essentially no more than a toy or casual diversion, their depth of experience with the web being nothing less than astounding in the amount of information they are able to glean from it at locations and by means and speeds that defy belief.
As we have mentioned when one finds oneself at a point confronted with what from all appearances are resource-intensive efforts intended to intimidate, influence or silence including through the use of seemingly intentionally ill-concealed barely indirect communications of suggested surveillance and other invasive practices including those that would conspire and attempt to interfere with our own fundamental rights to express our views, opinions and fundamentally political satirical comment, a cornerstone of American political speech, up to including to the level of poorly cloaked threats, we are only too happy to call in the experts and grateful beyond expression for their immediate willingness to spend hours on the paths which to them it would appear might as well have been left with breadcrumbs or even confessions just waiting to be signed.
We intend to keep communicating to all we can and we cannot express our appreciation enough for our loyal and well-meaning readers who would keep themselves apprised of developments. Vulnerability is borne of silence alone in the dark whereas, as we have so often before repeated, the people United and apprised of developments in the sunshine of the truth can never be defeated.
