  • Retired General Michael Hayden doubles down on "MAGAnuts" reaction to his call for senator's assassination

    Luis AlvarezSome people turn out to be garbage people. It is particularly disturbing to find the former Director of the Central Intelligence Agency and the first Principal Deputy Director of National Intelligence under former President George W. Bush is such a person. Retired General Michael Hayden has shown himself as a hyper-partisan against Republicans, particularly MAGA Republicans. His hatred for Donald Trump has turned his social media presence into one nasty tweet after another. With that in mind, perhaps I shouldn’t be so surprised at the depraved level of contempt Hayden displays toward Republicans with whom he disagrees. In this...

    The NYPD has located the U-Haul believed to have been used in Tuesday morning's subway shooting abandoned in the street in Brooklyn, five miles from the scene of the crime - but the gunman responsible remains at large. The shooter has not yet been publicly identified and he remains on the loose hours after opening fire on a busy northbound N train as it approached 36th Street in Sunset Park. Investigators believe they know who he is, having identified the suspect after finding a credit card at the scene that was also used to rent the U-Haul cargo van, two...

He was arrested and detained in Singapore this month (July) for terrorism-related activities, the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) said in a statement on Friday (July 29).

    Richard Hoagland, the acting U.S. ambassador to Pakistan, discussed with Code Pink and anti-Israel activists what he said was classified information, during an October 3 meeting with the groups in Islamabad. Code Pink, a liberal anti-war organization known for disrupting Republican and conservative public events, uploaded a video of the meeting to an Internet video sharing website on Oct. 5. Realizing what he had said, Hoagland told the activist gathering: “I probably just, you know, got into big trouble with what I just said.”

    When Republican members of Congress learned in November 2011 that the Obama administration was contemplating a swap -- Taliban terrorists for captured ArmySgt. Bowe Bergdahl -- they wrote to then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton of their fears. Mrs. Clinton wrote back that they had nothing to worry about. The White House would follow the law requiring a 30-day heads-up. "I want to make clear that any transfer from Guantanamo will be undertaken after consultation with Congress and pursuant to all legal requirements for transfers, including those spelled out in the FY2012 [National] Defense Authorization Act," she said of the law...

    Lawyers for Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, the most famous US Army deserter since Sgt. Eddie Slovik went before a firing squad in January 1945, are having a sad about Donald Trump. Trump says Taliban turncoat Bergdahl, now awaiting a general court-martial after walking away from an Afghanistan outpost in 2009, should face a firing squad of his own. The lawyers say Trump's polluting the jury pool for Bergdahl's court-martial, and they want to talk to the GOP presidential front-runner about it. Both are blowing hard. Trump, for votes: Surely he knows the Army doesn't execute military deserters -- Slovik being the...

"We're tired of Sgt. Bergdahl, who's a traitor, a no-good traitor, who should have been executed," Trump said to cheers at a rowdy rally inside a packed Las Vegas theater at the casino-hotel Treasure Island.

    The U.S. Army announced Tuesday that accused deserter Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl's court-martial is delayed until Feb. 6, 2017. This seven-month delay comes as the respective legal counsels filed their motions Tuesday morning at Fort Bragg, N.C. His court-martial had been scheduled for Aug. 8. Army Judge Col. Jeffery Nance presided over the 35-minute hearing, discussing dates and specific legal motions with attorneys. Charges against Bergdahl include desertion and misbehavior before the enemy. Stars and Stripes reported the delay gives attorneys time to pore through classified documents that may contain evidence.

Bryan Pagliano, who worked on Clinton's 2008 presidential campaign before helping install the so-called "homebrew" server system in her Chappaqua, N.Y. home, was asked to testify about the server by the House Select Committee on Benghazi, the Senate Judiciary Committee, and the Senate Homeland Security Committee.

    A Belgian bishop forced to retire after admitting to years of sexual abuse of his nephew told Belgian television that he had molested another nephew and that it had all started "as a game." Former Bruges Bishop Roger Vangheluwe, 74, said he did not consider himself a pedophile, according to news reports on the interview, which was broadcast April 14. Belgium's bishops said they were "astounded" and "extremely shocked" by Bishop Vangheluwe's televised interview. On April 11, the bishops' conference said Bishop Vangheluwe had been ordered by Vatican authorities to leave Belgium to undergo "spiritual and psychological treatment." Jesuit Father...

Before his conviction, the district attorney’s office said Lopez-Perez told witnesses he knew he’d struck and killed a child and that he tried...

Mrs Hussain, who had arrived on the Gold Coast with her 17-year-old daughter at the weekend from Adelaide, died at her upmarket Southport apartment after receiving stab wounds to the chest.

    SADDAM Hussein's defence team will boycott his genocide trial indefinitely, citing violations by the Iraqi court trying him, his chief lawyer said. “The court committed several violations of the law and we will not just sit there gagged to give it legitimacy,” said Khalil al-Dulaimi, who is in charge of a nine-member defence team for the deposed Iraqi leader. He said the lawyers would “indefinitely” boycott the trial, in which Saddam faces charges of committing genocide against Kurds in northern Iraq.

Such is the case of the former Croatian General Ante Gotovina, arrested in...
