The House Judiciary Committee could vote as early as Tuesday to subpoena Karl Rove, White House deputy chief of staff, and Harriet Miers, former White House counsel, as part of the panel's probe into their role in the recent firing of eight U.S. attorneys. E-mails released this week show that Rove was aware of January 2005 discussions within the White House to fire all 93 U.S. attorneys, contradicting earlier White House statements about when and how much Rove was involved in the issue. House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers (D-Mich.) was told by White House Counsel Fred Fielding on Friday...

An attorney for former ambassador Joseph Wilson, whose wife, Valerie Plame, is at the center of the Plamegate scandal in Washington, was raked over the coals by a judge Thursday for remarks she made the day before on MSNBC's Hardball. During an interview on the program, Melanie Sloan said that former administration official Scooter Libby could still be convicted of perjury and obstruction of justice even though he may not have been the first person to reveal that Plame was a CIA agent. In a stinging rebuke from the bench, U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton said that he "would not...

The new Democratic chairman of the House Judiciary Committee today urged the Justice Department to withdraw its subpoenas for two San Francisco Chronicle reporters that would force them to name their sources for federal grand jury testimony about athletes admitted steroid use. House Judiciary Chairman John Conyers of Michigan and Rep. Tom Davis, R-Va., the top Republican on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, wrote to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales criticizing his agency's efforts to jail Chronicle reporters Lance Williams and Mark Fainaru-Wada for up to 18 months for refusing to comply with the subpoenas. "The subpoenas issued to...

One of my main goals in starting this weblog was to point out the dangers of multiculturalism to our democracy and to our country. It is especially frustrating because those who support multiculturalism think they are doing the right thing – or else they hate America so much that they want to see America defeated. What the long range consequences of such a defeat may mean to them personally (either in the loss of their freedoms or of their prosperity) does not seem to occur to them. As Islamic terrorism rears its murderous head here and there around the world...

The Republican-led House ethics committee -- in possibly its last action before Democrats take over Congress -- closed the three-year investigation of Rep. John Conyers Jr. after he agreed to stop using staffers for campaign work and personal errands. Mr. Conyers, a Michigan Democrat, acknowledged a "lack of clarity" in his dealing with the taxpayer-financed staffers, who reportedly worked on political campaigns and performed other nonofficial jobs, including baby-sitting Mr. Conyers' children and tutoring his wife. The case against Mr. Conyers was closed without punitive action or a letter of reproval from the Committee on Standards of Conduct, the ethics...

There is so much wrong with the Conyers situation that Pelosi shouldn’t have to think twice about nixing Conyers’ chairmanship. Let us look at how the Conyers scandal epitomizes the ethics mess in the House: First, releasing its report late on Friday before the New Year’s holiday weekend made it clear that the House “Ethics” Committee intended to minimize public understanding of the Conyers scandal. This is classic Washington Establishment manipulation of the news cycle to insulate itself against public accountability. Second, Conyers responded to the “Ethics” committee by “accepting responsibility” for a “lack of clarity” in asking aides to...

Here's a great way to ring another new year of the culture of corruption in Washington. Jason Smith notes: Incoming Judiciary Committee Chair Admits Breaking Ethics Rules... Conyers is a slimeball, but he cooperated with us, so we'll issue this public statement we hope no one will see and trust him to "monitor" his staff so all that bad stuff doesn't happen again under his vigilant watch. Business. As. Usual. The back story: As The Hill newspaper reported last spring, "two former Conyers’ aides alleged that he repeatedly violated House ethics rules by requiring aides to work on local and...

Late on Friday, the House Ethics Committee issued a statement that Rep. John Conyers had “accepted responsibility” for “possibly violating House Rules” by requiring his staff to work on campaigns and perform other, personal duties. The Committee, whose formal name is the House Committee on Standards and Official Conduct, concluded that Conyers should “take a number of additional, significant steps to ensure that his office complies with all rules and standards regarding campaign and personal work by congressional staff." They also said, "We have concluded that this matter should be resolved through the issuance of this public statement." What do...

Tancredo stirs the pot again Article Last Updated:11/30/2006 07:15:30 PM MST Congressman Tom Tancredo, who has perfected the art of stirring up political storms, is reveling in controversy again. And, like a pig rolling in mud, he's loving every minute of it. Not that we're calling him a pig, of course. But Florida Gov. Jeb Bush had another name for the Littleton Republican: "What a nut," the president's brother told reporters. "I'm just disappointed \[that\] he's a Republican. He doesn't represent my views." Tancredo, who has been flirting with a presidential run and possibly a Senate bid, kicked open a...

Alcee Hastings, Bribery, and the House Intelligence Committee Will Democrats overlook the next chairman’s past? By Byron York Eighteen years ago, Democratic Rep. John Conyers came to believe that Alcee Hastings, at the time a federal judge in Florida, was guilty of impeachable offenses. Hastings stood accused of conspiring to take bribes, and, although it is little remembered today, Conyers served as the chairman of the House Judiciary subcommittee that investigated Hastings and unanimously recommended his impeachment. After the House voted 413 to 3 to impeach Hastings, Conyers went on to serve as one of the House impeachment managers who...

Yet another silver lining on the Democratic takeover of the U.S. Senate: Capitol Hill sources tell DebbieSchlussel.com that the boneheaded nomination by President Bush of bungling, terrorist-sympathizing, racist U.S. Attorney Stephen Murphy III for a federal judgeship on the U.S. Court of Appeals (Sixth Circuit) may be dead in the water. I've been exposing this ludicrous nomination since before it happened. U.S. Attorney Stephen Murphy's Nomination to Federal Bench in Distress Murphy a/k/a "Abu Porno," was a Bush compromise candidate. A lightweight in virtually every category, Murphy has no judicial experience, is not a conservative, and is known for looking...

The likely new chairman of the House Judiciary Committee says he's just fighting bigotry in leading a Democrat jihad to deny law enforcement key terror-fighting tools. But he is in the pocket of Islamists. John Conyers, son of a leftist Detroit union activist, represents the largest Arab population in the country. His district includes Dearborn, Mich., nicknamed "Dearbornistan" by locals fed up with cultural encroachment and terror fears from a steady influx of Mideast immigrants. Conyers, who runs an Arabic version of his official Web site, does the bidding of these new constituents and the militant Islamist activists who feed...

Bit h/t to the Commenters at Just One Minute. We bloggers owe our best work to their diligence and tenacity. The following is a complilation of some what they found so far, of what just may be the key to getting to the bottom of a Democratic conspiracy in the Foley Setup. As I previously posted here, there apparently was a promise of a book deal to pages by a Robin Kasaros. Googling her name brought about useful information such as she hosted “House Parties” back in 2005. No, not where you sell Tupperware, but the kind that like to...

Three From Clinton Administration Urge Disney to Cancel or Revise Sept. 11 MiniseriesBy JESSE McKINLEY Published: September 7, 2006 Three members of the Clinton administration have written the chairman of the Walt Disney Company, ABC’s parent, to complain that the network’s coming two-part miniseries “The Path to 9/11” is fraught with factual errors and fabrications. The letters ask that the five-hour movie, scheduled for broadcast Sunday and Monday, be either edited for accuracy or canceled, and ABC gave a small indication yesterday that some changes might be made. One of the officials, former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, said in...

As many of you I'm sure know, the Revolutionary Communist Party (RCP) has several front groups, the most effective and dangerous of which, because of their influential presence on our nation's college and high school campuses, is "World Can't Wait--Drive Out the Bush Regime". See: World Can't Wait--Drive Out the Bush Regime, at: http://rwor.org/a/rwlink/links.htm (scroll down the page to find them) I searched the list of endorsers to the World Can't Wait movement, which is Maoist in nature, and saw among many familiar names, democrat congressman John Conyers Jr's! Here is a direct link to his endorsement.(http://tinyurl.com/ef6z6) Look under the...

This is a call to anyone that would like to ee John Conyers bounced from office this November. Chad Miles, a veteran with experience in Desert Strom (He was with the 82nd Airborne, and also spent time in Army Intelligence) has filed to run against Conyers in the November election. Chad has very conservative views, and I think that, though it may look like an impossibility to most - including Mr. Conyers - Chad could win this thing. Most Dems that I know in the Downriver area are looking for ANYONE to vote for beside Conyers (This area was redistricted...

Boyd faces up to 5 years in prison, $250,000 fine - A federal jury convicted a former aide to U.S. Rep. John Conyers of failing to appear for his sentencing in a fraud case. DeWayne Boyd, 49, was convicted of the charge Wednesday, U.S. Attorney Stephen Murphy said Thursday. Boyd, formerly of Detroit, had been convicted Dec. 15, 2004, of charges including mail fraud, making false declarations under oath, making false statements to investigators, bankruptcy fraud and theft of government property. U.S. District Judge Robert Cleland ordered that Boyd remain in custody pending an Aug. 29 sentencing hearing for the...

If the chips fall right for Democrats and their party seizes control of the House, President Bush's agenda on Capitol Hill would fall into the hands of some of his most dogged opponents. It's not just would-be Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California, but a boatload of Democrats newly running committees who would determine what legislation gets debated and which programs and agencies get scrutiny. So who are the chairmen to be? _a Polish-American lawyer with a reputation for making witnesses quiver. _a die-hard liberal from New York's Harlem with 35 years in the House. _a free-spending progressive from Wausau, Wis....

As Republicans have become increasingly nervous about whether they will be able to maintain control of the House in the midterm elections, they have resorted to the straw-man strategy of identifying a parade of horrors to come if Democrats gain the majority. Among these is the assertion that I, as the new chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, would immediately begin impeachment proceedings against President Bush. I will not do that. I readily admit that I have been quite vigorous, if not relentless, in questioning the administration. The allegations I have raised are grave, serious, well known, and based on...

On Sunday's This Week, George Stephanopoulos not once but twice, referred to Democratic House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi as “Speaker,” a title she would presumably get if Democrats win back the House this fall. So, a Freudian slip by Stephanopoulos, a one-time staff member for the Democratic House leadership himself when they were in the majority? Before signing aboard the Clinton campaign in 1991, Stephanopoulos was a floor assistant to then-House Majority Leader Dick Gephardt. Interviewing Congressman Tom DeLay, the former House Majority Leader who suggested that if Democrats win control of the House they will pursue impeachment, Stephanopoulos countered:...

Democrats pledge probes of Bush, not impeachment By Andrea Hopkins 10 minutes ago Democrats will launch a series of investigations of the Bush administration if they take control of Congress in November but are not out to impeach President George W. Bush, a top Democrat said on Sunday. House of Representatives Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi said Democrats would hold hearings on the use of intelligence in the lead-up to the Iraq war and investigate the high price of energy and prescription drugs if they win the extra 15 seats they need for a House majority in the mid-term elections. But...

The DUmmie implosion is proceeding apace as you can see in this THREAD titled, "The RoadMap to Impeachment: 'Violence' is The Answer." DUmmie author, Senator, placed "Violence" in quotes since he means the DUmmies should get "violent" not in the physical sense (which would get him arrested for publicly advocating it) but in the ANNOYING sense. Yes, DUmmie "genius" Senator wants the DUmmies to act incredibly ANNOYING in order to draw attention to their lost cause of impeachment. Ironically, by following DUmmie Senator's RoadMap advice, they are just harming their dopey cause even more since such tactics would only...

Three former aides to U.S. Rep. John Conyers say the lawmaker used them as baby sitters and personal servants while they were supposed to be working in his Michigan offices. The aides said that Conyers had them tutor and care for his two sons; help his wife, now-City Councilwoman Monica Conyers, with law studies; and drive him to political and private events. The accusations come from Deanna Maher, former chief of Conyers' office in Southgate; Sydney Rooks, Conyers' lawyer from 1997 to 2000; and Dean Christian Thornton, a legislative aide fired in January, according to the Detroit Free Press. Maker...

Two former aides to Rep. John Conyers have alleged that he repeatedly violated House ethics rules. Deanna Maher, a former deputy chief of staff in Conyers’s Detroit office, and Sydney Rooks, a former legal counsel in the district office, provided evidence for the allegations by sharing numerous letters, memorandums and copies of e-mails, handwritten notes and expense reports with The Hill. In letters sent separately by each woman to the House ethics committee, the FBI and the U.S. attorney’s office, they allege that Conyers demanded that aides work on several local and state campaigns and forced them to baby-sit and...

A headline on the UK’s Guardian today reads, “Age cannot wither him,” referring to Gore Vidal. The author, Emma Brockes, pays homage at the feet of Vidal, praising him as an “aristocrat, intellectual and prolific novelist, playwright, and essayist,” flattering “his ongoing radicalism,” and gleefully exclaiming that he “is as outspoken as ever.” But Vidal’s left-wing hubris and insanity does not completely escape the awe-struck Brockes… sort of. Brockes interviewed Vidal at his “grand old palazzo” in Italy. She notes that Vidal just sold this palace for “£9.5m” ($17,173,147.00) so that he could move to another house he owns in...

Outside the oil and gas junta that controls two and a half branches of our government (the half soon to be whole is the judiciary), there was a good deal of envy at the late British election among those Americans who are serious about politics. Little money was spent by the three parties and none for TV advertising. Results were achieved swiftly and cheaply. Best of all, the three party leaders were quizzed sharply and intelligently by ordinary citizens known quaintly as subjects, thanks to the ubiquitous phantom crown so unlike our nuclear-taloned predatory eagle. Although news of foreign countries...

The Bush administration's former chief procurement official tipped off lobbyist Jack Abramoff that the government was about to suspend the federal contracts of an Abramoff client, newly filed court papers say. David Safavian provided "sensitive and confidential information" about four subsidiaries of Tyco International to Abramoff regarding internal deliberations at the General Services Administration, say the court papers filed Friday in a criminal case against Safavian. Abramoff has pleaded guilty to conspiracy, tax evasion and mail fraud in a burgeoning bribery probe centered on Capitol Hill but also involving the Interior Department. The White House is refusing to release photographs...

Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D-Ga.) returned home to Georgia on Sunday from a triumphant weekend at the Sundance Film Festival in Utah, where an award-winning documentary about her life premiered. Her mood quickly soured, however, when she found the front yard of her district home littered with VCR tape in an apparent act of vandalism. “Obviously, someone wants to send a message that they know where I live and can have access to my front yard to do unkind things,” she said in a statement released by her office. The incident has been reported to police. According to a release from...

Osama Bin Laden, reputed leader of the al-Qaeda terrorist network, has filed suit in the U.S. Federal Court for the District of Columbia seeking $100 billion in compensation for what he alleges were illegal wiretaps carried out by the Bush Administration. “These illegal invasions of my private phone conversations with my friends have caused me both tangible and intangible harm,” Bin Laden said. “I am worried. A great many of my friends have not returned my calls. My fundraising efforts have been hampered. The list goes on and on.” Senator Russ Feingold (D-Wis.), co-author of the McCain-Feingold Suppression of Free...

Cindy Sheehan is getting some help from far left Democrats in Congress, who are urging President Bush to meet with the so-called "Peace Mom." Rep. John Conyers of Michigan penned a letter to Bush making that request, and it was signed by 38 other members of the House of Representatives, all of whom are Democrats with the exception of Vermont's Bernard Sanders, who is an Independent. "We write to respectfully urge you to meet with Cindy Sheehan and other relatives of fallen soldiers who request a meeting to discuss their deep concerns about the war in Iraq," Conyers writes.

Why Won't Scooter Libby Grant Judith Miller a Personal Waiver? August is typically a month of no news. Congress goes on its summer recess. The President takes a long vacation. A very long one. For those in the White House press corps who are not so fortunate to be assigned to bake in the Crawford, Texas sun, they too take vacations (though not as long as the President's). This August is different. If you listen closely enough, you can hear the slow drip of scandal turning into a waterfall of corruption and coverups in the Bush White House. On the...

Some of the most liberal members of Congress are planning to throw house parties next Saturday to focus attention on presidential adviser Karl Rove and the so-called Downing Street Memo. Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., says he's organizing the events across the country "to broaden public understanding of how Karl Rove and the Bush Administration have manipulated intelligence, deceived the American people, and misled our nation into war." "Our country is slowing beginning to confront the truth about the Bush administration's deceitful rush to war in Iraq," Conyers said. July 23 marks the three-year anniversary of the meeting at No. 10...

Cindy Sheehan: Are Those Crocodile Tears? Ordinarily I have a great deal of sympathy for the families of soldiers who die in combat defending our freedom. I lose that sympathy, when I see those same family members using the death or injury of their loved one for political gain. Cindy Sheehan is pursuing a vendetta of hate against the President that predates the loss of her son. She hates George Bush, not because she believes that he is responsible for her son’s death, but because he “stole the election” in 2000 and again in 2004. She is a willing participant...

FReepers from the DC Chapter conducted a FReep of the Downing Street Memo Rally at Lafayette Park next to the White House on June 16. The DSM Rally was sponsored by Code Pink and Progressive Democrats of America (the outfit of William Rivers Pitt of DUmmie FUnnies fame) in an attempt to refight their crushing defeat in the last election.

Jerrold Nadler's Two Faces on Terror By Jacob LaksinFrontPageMagazine.com | June 13, 2005Last Friday’s House Judiciary Committee hearing on the Patriot Act had already been adjourned, but Jerrold Nadler, the Democratic blimpish congressman from New York and one of the leftmost members of the House Judiciary Committee, was too wound up to care: “We are not besmirching the honor of the United States, we are trying to uphold it,” bellowed the hefty Nadler. By this, Nadler meant to defend his attacks on the alleged abuses of the (in fact) privileged prisoners in Guantanamo Bay. Thanks to the efforts of the...

Just when I thought I had seen everything, I stumble across what might be the most grotesque example of intellectual insanity in the history of the universe. It figures I would find such a shining example of imbecilic lunacy in the halls of our own congress.

On January 18 Rep. John Conyers Jr., Michigan Democrat, told a placard-waving anti-war crowd: "The greatest patriots of this country are here today...The president said it'd be a cold day in Washington before this country turns against this war, but it is a cold day in Washington and here we are." Apart from Conyers nasty insinuation people who disagree with his leftwing views about war against the genocidal Saddam are not patriotic, what can we deduce from his presence? Well, for one, Rep. does not like America and prefers the company of totalitarians to that of genuine democrats. And how...

Lawmakers: Writer May Have CIA Leak Info Thursday, February 24, 2005 WASHINGTON — Two lawmakers have sent a letter to the U.S. attorney saying a White House reporter who recently resigned following questions about his identity and background may have information vital to the investigation into who leaked a CIA operative's name to the press. Reps. Louise Slaughter, D-N.Y., and John Conyers, D-Mich., the ranking Democrats on the House Rules Committee and House Judiciary Committee, respectively, wrote a letter to Patrick Fitzgerald (search), the U.S. attorney for the Northern District of Illinois, saying the Chicago attorney's office may need to...

Sometimes you read things, and you know there just must have been a mistake in the headline. Such was the case when I came upon a story entitled "Democrat Disputes Social Security 'Crisis'." My first thought was that there was some mistake in semantics and I misread the title. Unfortunately, it is true-the Democrats believe that everything is hunky dory with Social Security and the Preisident would do best to leave it alone. Then I saw who was quoted and everything fell into place. Charlie Rangel, quoting from the congressional budget office, proclaimed that SSI was good for another 50...

Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) is considering launching a challenge to Ohio’s electoral votes when the Senate meets tomorrow to certify the votes of the Electoral College. The challenge -- should Boxer decide to offer it -- would force a debate in the House and Senate over whether President Bush’s electoral victory will stand. Rep. John Conyers (D-Mich.) is planning to issue a challenge in the House. Conyers and 23 other House members today outlined their reasons for opposing the certification of Ohio’s electors, claiming there were “numerous, serious election irregularities” in Ohio. Bush carried Ohio by more than 100,000 votes....

Petitions urge Boxer to raise vote challengeGroups hope senator will join House members who plan to question Electoral College results By Josh Richman, STAFF WRITER With the presidential election two months behind and Inauguration Day just 16 days away, some Northern Californians still aren't giving up the ghost. Protesters gathered Monday at the San Francisco office of U.S. Sen.

WASHINGTON - A group of congressional Democrats is asking President Bush (news - web sites) to dismiss a senior military intelligence officer who made church speeches that included inflammatory religious remarks while discussing the war on terrorism. In a letter to Bush released Thursday, Rep. Barney Frank (news, bio, voting record), D-Mass., and 10 others said action in the matter of Lt. Gen. William Boykin is long overdue, and he must be removed from his post as deputy undersecretary for defense. A Pentagon (news - web sites) investigation concluded that Boykin violated regulations by failing to make clear he was...

December 11-12, 2004 - Does the phrase, "Bush Won" mean anything to you? The election of 2004 was over a month ago, so why are the Dems still demanding a recount in Ohio? Bush won by an estimated 116,000 votes, but if you listen to Jesse Jackson and John Conyers Jr. Kerry might have pulled it out, if it were not for some meddling Republicans. Yes, there are voting problems, but contrary to popular belief, not all the foul ups favored Bush! In some on the recounts, democrats picked up significant amounts of votes, but you never hear that from...
