We will all be happier to see and hear that Sessions is a hero, a great senator, one who in no way is or was related to the unprepared AG he portrayed. I wish him the best. I really do. Nothing convincing yet, but I have hope.
Australian federal police raid Canberra home of intelligence officer
The Australian federal police have raided the Canberra home of intelligence officer Cameron Gill.
The Australian Federal Police have not commented on the identity of the person subject to Wednesdays search, but confirmed they had executed a search warrant at a property in Griffith. Police said it was not in relation to any current or impending threat to the Australian community but would not comment further, beyond confirming it was in relation to a commonwealth official.
Wednesdays raid in Canberra follows a series of controversial searches on media outlets, including the ABC head office in Ultimo and the home of News Corp political editor, Annika Smethurst in June.
Cameron Gill was also listed as an adviser to then defence materiel minister, Mal Brough, in defence documents recording a meeting with former US ambassador John Berry in 2015.
It is unclear whether Wednesdays raid is connected to the Smethurst story, which reported that the heads of the defence and home affairs ministries had discussed draconian new powers to allow the Australian Signals Directorate to spy on Australian citizens for the first time.
We will all be happier to see and hear that Sessions is a hero, a great senator, one who in no way is or was related to the unprepared AG he portrayed. I wish him the best. I really do. Nothing convincing yet, but I have hope.
