the f.b.i. has had problems going into the mosque during the week they have people out on the corners doing counter-surveillance it's a very insular community. a decade old federal investigation. so since $93.00 b. . the. federal authorities are investigating the mosque foundation in bridgeview and its leaders for possible involvement and terribly to move on to the house of worship one of the largest islamic centers in chicago has been under f.b.i. surveillance for years. when we found this article it was one of the 1st confirmations for me at least that there was this surveillance that was going on for 911 you know nobody thought anyone was building bombs in the basement but what they did thing was that there was money being funneled through supposedly legitimate charities. to hamas to have a law for the most part almost all of these investigations and without any indictments and the ones that did result in indictments were for things like tax fraud so you were getting a lot of walls when you w

on december 9, described the f.b.i.'s counterintelligence investigation as an endeavor that, quote, became a criminal conspiracy to defraud the court, to trample on the rights of an american citizen, mr. carter page. he went on today, this morning, talking about whether we should -- has any lawful predicate to appoint mueller to begin with. he called hurricane crossfire one of the most corrupt, biased investigations in the history of the f.b.i. mr. rosenstein, that was an investigation you were in charge of. it was conducted by an individual you personally selected. do you consider it to be an utterly baseless, corrupt criminal investigation as you reflect on it today? mr. rosenstein: do i not consider the investigation to be corrupt, senator. but i certainly understand the president's frustration given the outcome, which was that there was no evidence of conspiracy between the trump campaign advisors and russians. senator durbin: we are about to embark on an investigation by this committee which may be the largest inves

f.b.i. got back in the business of encouraging the violent acts in a big way journalist trevor aaronson went through u.s. prosecutions of terrorism and found that a 150 people were indicted in sting operations that existed only thanks to the encouragement of the f.b.i. and its informants yet there is only been 5 by actual plots unconnected to the f.b.i. this means 97 percent of the terrorism plots in america were created by the f.b.i. this means factually undeniably you know arguably the f.b.i. is the biggest terrorist mastermind in the united states and i think we might be able to catch them going to head down to the big building that says that f.b.i. . i think you can arrest them there look i'm not saying every broken window was done by the police nor with every police spray painted by them either but some of the damage was created by police infiltrators and right now there are police within activist groups trying to get them to be more violent in order to make it easier to arrest them you

this means factually undeniably you know arguably the f.b.i. is the biggest terrorist mastermind in the united states and i think we might be able to catch them going to head down to the big building that says that if we are . i think you can arrest them there look i'm not saying every broken window was done by the police nor was every police spray painted by them either but some of the damage was created by police infiltrators and right now there are police within activist groups trying to get them to be more violent in order to make it easier to arrest them you can usually tell who the infiltrators are because they have on echevarria t. shirt but biceps that look like they carry 100 pound cattle feed bags all day long sorry but your average recycling enthusiasm doesn't have veins popping out of their arms like they inject creative team into their eyeballs but as these protests continue one thing is for sure the anger is real the anger across america at being held down by a racist war like policing system and if you are going to get upset at t

well of course i was placed on the f.b.i.'s 10 most wanted list and 170 and it was in the context of a development of a program called the counter intelligence program cointelpro specifically targeted black activists not only myself but many members of the black panther party i was active in the black panther party but i was also a member of the communist party. and. of course the black panther party was. targeted in particular and was said to be the most dangerous threat to the nation by j. edgar hoover who at that time was that head of the yeah i actually also quite out of a soft tissue cooler. who is still alive. lives in cuba now was a few years ago designated as one of the 10 most dangerous terrorists and the world and so the f.b.i. continues to use its force to single out and to. challenge those who are trying to bring about radical change in this country i think that could have been during the obama administration he was designated as yes it was during the obama administration absolutely well we'll get to his vice presi

announced their findings. >> the f.b.i. has determined that nascar driver bubba wallace was not the target of a hate crime. investigators say the noose found in his garage had been there since last october, months before wallace was assigned that stall. according to nascar, the rope was used to pull the garage door closed. wallace, the sports only black top-circuit driver says he doesn't care how long it's been there, it's still a noose. >> trevor: what an emotional rollercoaster. it turns out, there was a noose in the garage, but it wasn't left there as a message to bubba wallace. it was used to close a garage door. and i'm going to be honest with you, i am just relieved. i'm relieved, because for a story involving a noose, this is the best possible outcome. it wasn't a hate crime against bubba wallace, and it wasn't a hoax, like jussie smollett, because the country didn't need any of that right now. i mean, we've already got police brutality videos going viral every day, protests in the streets. and on top of all of that,

secretary mcenany: the f.b.i. director, much like the secretary of defense, if the president decides he has no longer have confidence, you guys will be the first to know. reporter: a couple more on new york if it's ok. yesterday, new york's governor made a pretty big statement saying he might relieve de blasio of his duties. has there been any talk with governor cuomo about sending in the national guard troops to new york or is there any plan right now to send any national guard to new york? secretary mcenany: the president will do whatever is necessary to protect america's streets. he's made that clear. and he has several tools. that is one of them, sending in the national guard. he does have the ability to federalize the national guard should he choose to do that. but i would note and i am very glad you brought up new york, the very clear-cut cases of d.c. and new york, d.c. was in chaos on sunday night when you saw the burning of the church. when the mayor did not set the curfew. the president said this is unac

the f.b.i. concludes its investigation on that noose found in bubba wallace's garage. why they say tonight it was not a crime. not kidding around: the president says he wasn't joking about slowing down testing. tonight, as he campaigns in a covid hot zone, his new threat to crack down on protesters outside the white house gets a warning label from twitter. political pressure: new allegations from the top prosecutor in the roger stone case. were justice department attorneys forced to go easy on stone because of his relationship with the presidentd new book comes out, the former national security advisor opens up. what john bolton tells us about the president's request for re- election help from china, and what could happen if he loses in november. >> the real issue, i think, is, is there some chance he would refuse to leave? >> o'donnell: bill cosby court decision: the stunning ruling tonight in the disgraced comedian's sexual assault case. could the former star be released from prison? and we ca

donald trump's former national security advisor michael flynn pleaded guilty twice to lying to the f.b.i. during the investigation into russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and later said it was and truculent last month the justice department asked judges to dismiss the case because of a us president has been indicted for war crimes along with 9 other former separatist faces a special court has been investigating crimes against ethnic serbs during kosovo's 19981999 war of independence prosecutors at the hague based court said the president had some touchy and the other suspects are responsible for nearly $100.00 other charges including forced disappearance and torture hundreds of protesters in the democratic republic of congo have tried to storm parliament they rallied in the capital kinshasa of a new traditional reform these members of parliament will shuttle to vote on measures proposed by former president joseph kabila as party those are the headlines more news for you here on al-jazeera after witness next. so i know you said creates mr rhys suit off with yes. but se

. >> reporter: the f.b.i. serving senator richard burr with a search warrant at his washington, d.c., area home and seizing his cell phone. federal agents are investigating potential insider trading after the republican senator sold stocks that were later hit hard because of the coronavirus pandemic. as the chairman of the senate intelligence committee, burr received daily coronavirus briefings before the markets plummeted. he sold a significant percentage of his stock portfolio during that time, up to $1.6 million. burr's brother-in-law also sold stocks on the same day. burr denied discussing the sale with him. >> trevor: that's right, like a suspicious spouse, the f.b.i. has decided they want to look through this senator's phone. i'm not going to lie. it would be so scary for the f.b.i. to take your phone. even if you didn't do anything illegal, just them going through your search history is going to be so embarrassing. "oh, my god! this guy googled 'is megan the stallion a horse?' this guy is too dumb to ha

jordan: tell me why the special counsel didn't charge joseph with lying to the f.b.i. he lied three times. you charge everybody else, you charged flynn and stone and 13 russians, no one had ever seen. we know that the flynn charge was wrong. as evidenced by what happened today. but why didn't you charge joseph who lied to you guys back in february of 2017?

well, the f.b.i. background check into christopher steele was so sloppy, they didn't even get, they didn't even understand that his loyalties were not with the f.b.i. and the u.s. government. they were with his paymaster, fusion g.p.s., his employer. well, that's one reason why there was such inaccuracies throughout this investigation, including the fisa applications. so we need answers and we need accountability. based on what i've seen so far, one conclusion is that there was a coordinated effort to manipulate our intelligence community and justice system for vindictive and biased purposes against a presidential candidate elected president of the united states. i realize that's a grave and serious charge, but i think that is one conclusion you could draw based on what we know. so it's high time we learned the truth. the presiding officer: the chamber will come to order. mr. cornyn: if this kind of misbehavior and deception becomes routine, it will jeopardize important legal authorities that we rely

exactly and i think it's like if you hate this amendment then that means that you're cool with the f.b.i. snooping on your they might not find something that's going to take you down but they are going to find something embarrassing. internet searches that still vague you know sure i might be searching for you know dog having a 3 way with other dogs i'm sure i was researching it for a joke or not out of some sort of morbid curiosity i'm pretty sure one of their internet searches is like how do i get my kids to love me like that's probably. just a cruise a search for sure i feel like ted cruz on that one the internet ad breaks the internet right there like. the end of the. internet and of the internet. but yeah moving on you probably are aware that the e.p.a. has already allowed high pollution industries to police themselves and so now the white house stake in this a step further and allow the oil companies to set their own rates for royalties that they pay on the money that they're making from drilling on public lands and not only can they stop the world's great but the pure of women wit

also according to f.b.i. statistics, about 90% of the interracial violence is black on white, not white on black. a person you should have as a guest is heather mcdonald she's a yale educated lawyer and city journal. host: i'll let you go there. heather mcdonald has been on our program multiple times. michael star hopkins your thoughts. guest: i want to touch on the statistics for a second. when you talk about the high crime rate among african americans, let's remember how historically we got there. when you take a group of people and give them poor education, you give them no opportunities, and then put them in a condensed area, there's certainly going to be crime. when you throw overpolicing into that and put a police force that is primarily in poor neighborhoods and specifically looking to break up crime in those neighborhoods, you're going to even raise that rate higher. in terms of the interracial crime rate you said -- i don't know specifically what that speaks to but what i will say is that as a former

republicans who are like hey the f.b.i. interfered with. joy campaign so it was like it was here it was like a very much an odd couple who also pop quiz will let some congress do anything to decrease surveillance on american citizens that's like that all goes in one direction exactly and i think it's like if you hate this amendment then that means that you're cool with the f.b.i. snooping on your they might not find something that's going to take you down but they are going to find something embarrassing and internet searches that still vague you know sure i might be searching for you know dog having a 3 way with other dogs i'm sure i was researching it for a joke or not out of some sort of morbid curiosity i'm pretty sure one of their internet searches is like how do i get my kids to love me like that's probably. just the fact that ted cruz is search for sure because like ted cruz on that one the internet everything internet right there like. the end of the internet and there's the internet. moving on you probably are aware that the e.p.a.

leader i had him shift all of that up at the last minute by adding a line that says the f.b.i. cannot seek to obtain the internet activity of u.s. persons without a warrant so basically it was that open ended sentence that screws over immigrants that screws over people who are seeking asylum and it's kind of sucks because just to get to this vote you had to create this weird alliance of like progressive politicians even normally shine anything that infringes on your privacy and then like bootlicking republicans who are like hey the f.b.i. interfered with. joy campaign so it was like it was here it was like a very much of a couple who also pop quiz were left in congress do anything to decrease surveillance on american citizens that's like that all goes in one direction exactly and i think it's like if you hate this amendment then that means that you're cool with the f.b.i. snooping on your they might not find something that's going to take you down but they are going to find something embarrassing. internet searches that's still vague you know sure i might be searching for you k

the f.b.i. investigators now say there's no evidence that a crime was committed after a noose was found in the garage of nascar's bubba wallace. drivers at talladega speedway rally around the sports' only black racer on monday. but there's late word tonight that the case is now being closed. well, there's a lot of breaking news tonight, and our team of correspondents is covering it all. cbs' mireya villarreal is going to lead us off tonight from dallas. good evening, mireya. >> reporter: you know, as the nation's health experts issue a serious warning here in texas, governor greg abbott announced today the highest they have ever seen, more than 5,000,400 cases in a single day and now is asking people to stay inside if they can. growing fears tonight that states like texas and florida are going down a dangerous road as the virus continues to spread. testifying today on capitol hill, dr. anthony fauci said the next couple of weeks are critical in trying to slow the virus. >> we're now seeing a dis

i'm at this after a noose was found in wallace esteemed garridge but the f.b.i. says there's now evidence it has been there since october the noose is a symbol connected to lynching and america's slave history and wallace is nascar's only full time black driver i was relieved just like. just like many others to know that he was targeted towards me but. it's still through a shooting to know that you know people are always going to test you and always just going to try to debunk you and that's that's what i'm trying to wrap my head around now from from you know santa fe you know this stuff and that i reported it when it was news that was brought to me it was 'd information brought to me england's cricket board house confirms who is there that pakistan's tour of the country is not in doubt that is despite 10 pakistan players testing positive for coronavirus starbucks in fact has a man is among the players that have contracted the disease none of the ill players will travel with the squad who leave pakistan on sunday they'll spend 14 days in isolation upon arrival in

the f.b.i. explained that china's conspiracies make the contract c.p. the greatest long-term threat to america's information security, intellectual prospect and by extension our economic vitality. and once again, our allies and partners are being victimized by the very same tactics. one outside report found the united states is losing between $400 billion and $600 billion per year in intellectual property theft as a matter of provable losses. provable losses. and that figure does not account for second-order losses such as jobs and infrastructure. so let's put that in perspective. congress has been working hard on the huge historic paycheck protection program. it pushed out half a trillion dollars for american workers. well, by this estimate, china reaches into our country and steals the equivalent of that entire program every single year. china does not play by the rules, not in hong kong, not in the w.h.o., not in the w.t.o., not in international trade. year after year on issue over issue, the

an f.b.i. lawyer, in county if a, testified before congress and viewed the logan act as, quote, untested. would lead an act the d.o.j. to vulnerable risk, unquote. but that didn't stop director comey from using it to attempt sabotage the trump transition team. if my democrat colleagues want to accuse someone of d.o.j., they he should start with director comey. mr. zelinsky, what's your view counsel -- the special counsel's office toward the logan act? zelinsky: congressman, i'm broken sound like a record, but i have been told by the department of justice that deliberative process concerns that the discussion of the special counsel's office and there outside the confines of the report, i'm happy to discuss the special office's report as i am happy to go to the -- mr. reschenthaler: how do you explain the discrepancy the of general flynn and secretary kerry and senator feinste feinstein? mr. zelinsky: congressman, i'd need to consult with the department of justice before i question.t mr. reschent

call upon our f.b.i. director o make arrests and i call upon our u.s. attorney general to prosecutor prosecute, charge and prosecute those who have engaged in criminal conduct. the number the number one call i get is restoration of law and order. that's what my constituents want. and it doesn't matter the political party, that's across the board. i conclude with these marks. this country is at a crossroads. it could be the leftist marksist point of view that we allow to typeover in this bolshevik of conduct that's going on, or we can resort and restore the law and order and the freedoms that we have long held dear. and make sure those freedoms apply to every citizen in our society. i have great and tremendous hope in this people. i know our president has that same hope. and i believe we're going to get there. we're going to restore this and we will be at peace and will be prosperous again. with that, i yield back to my good friend from texas. mr. gohmert: i appreciate so much my friend from arizona and i was asked earlier today by someone, you know, who

going into exile when i was younger and when i was targeted by the f.b.i. . and also mentally i decided that i didn't want to find myself in a situation where i would never be able to return home and this is home. and so it was it was clear to me that at that time a stray a winning strategy might be to simply stay underground as the movement was organized and as. the mass support and solidarity was generated so that when i did turn myself in and i'd actually ended up being captured by the the f.b.i. rather than deciding when i would turn myself in. but there was an enormous global movement calling for my freedom and that is why. we were able to win so i you know i always. look at mass movements as the answer bringing people together uniting ting people across. borders that often denied them. recognizing for example in this country that as we as we look at the reverberations of the. horrendous murder of george floyd we also have to think about. adam outright in paris in this is a case that has been central to the struggles against racism in paris we have to th
