CIA at a infrastructure department

It is more fun criticizing

This post met a multi billionaire, a lady a contractor at our infrastructure dept.  She is so wealthy that together with several others bought an island for a billion, has several billions of contract still outstanding.  The jewelry she was wearing when we met her was probaby in tens of millions.

Her secret?  CIA.  She is the lone contractor in the region who can still afford the CIA scheme of DE (It is risky what if the  contract does not push through?)

So who said that under DU30, there was no corruption and that he hated corruption.   It never stopped   And to think that Build3 is inflationary and is hurting us now

The fluid and ever changing world of strategy

Nat Geo 9/11 documentary

There is a feature at Nat Geo about the documentary of what happened at 9/11 some 13 years ago yesterday.

What was notable was failure in security and defense strategy/tactics.   CIA and FBI did not share information so terrorist were able to move freely around..   The security measures were not tight enough.  The pilots were able to train undetected.  Some intelligence data from the Phil  were also ignored.

Is DAP savings, is it constitutional?

Rizal Philippines  July 26, 2014

The Philippine Supreme Court has declared the DAP (Development Accelerated Program) to be unconstitutional.   As I thought then, ,  and arguments of Fr. Joaquin Bernas, and examining the provision of the constitution, it was unconstitutional.  However the defenders noted the "...except provision"  So they won the round 1.  And then the recent arguments said, GMA did this before.  However fmr. Budget Secretary Diokno was quick to point out that savings is different from DAP.

DAP realigns the budget, funds to the project that his office or the politician so desires.  So the budget process is corrupted.

The offshoot of this development is the filing of impeachment charges vs Pnoy and decline in his popularity.  That he used this as reward (P50 million each) for those who voted for SC Corona impeachment can be bribery.  Except that he used the peoples money, not his...(Well that is after the fact.  Only CIA is bribery.... Is that so)

However the Pres has the numbers, and he is very unlikely to be impeached any time soon, and may not affect his stature for the last year of his term.  However, the truth is out...

CIA  - Cash In Advance

CIA spying on international finance and monetary system?

CIA Collecting Records of International Money Transfers

From Wall St. Journal online

From Leaksource blog

The current accusations of various govt:    spying  by US seems to be gathering confirmation as true.  Why is Barack Obama, a democrat allowing this?  He does not know this?  What happens to command responsibility?

CIA seems to be using the same law, the Patriot Act that NSA uses in tapping phone and internet records, in monitoring records of Western Union on wire transfers (to track funding of terrorists?)

That is there is a group of Civil Libertarians who are activitists vs this kind of govt curtailment of US liberties.

Well CIA could always invoke national security in monitoring money transfers.  Is this legal or constitutional, moral?
