Michael Hastings was researching Jill Kelley FBI lawsuit before death

"During the weeks before he was killed in a car crash in Los Angeles, reporter Michael Hastings was researching a story about a privacy lawsuit brought by Florida socialite Jill Kelley against the Department of Defense and the FBI. Hastings, 33, was scheduled to meet with a representative of Kelley next week in Los Angeles to discuss the case, according to a person close to Kelley. Kelley alleges that military officials and the FBI leaked her name to the media to discredit her after she reported receiving a stream of emails that were traced to Paula Broadwell, a biographer of former CIA director David H. Petraeus, according to a lawsuit filed on June 3." Continue reading →

Here’s What It Looks Like When Two Hacker FBI Informants Try To Inform On Each Other

"The chat log represents a conversation between two FBI informants, both of whom seem to be trying to lure the other into providing evidence they can turn over to their law enforcement handlers–or even into a meeting that could lead to the other’s arrest. Sabu, also known as Hector Xavier Monsegur, had agreed to work as an FBI mole within LulzSec months before his conversation with Thordarson. Thordarson, for his part, tells me he thought he was helping to deliver a 'notorious hacker' to the FBI, and didn’t know he was speaking to a fellow stool pigeon. Monsegur doesn’t show any signs of knowing either." Continue reading →

Why Roger Stone’s JFK book has to be taken seriously

"Roger Stone is the first JFK assassination author to have worked in the White House and among the few who have personal acquaintances with JFK’s sucessors. Stone’s background doesn’t mean that his interpretation of November 22, 1963, is necessarily correct, but he cannot be dismissed as 'conspiracy theorist' who is deluded about the realities of American politics and power. To the contrary, he has far more first-hand experience with those Washington realities than an academic like John McAdams or a prosecutor like VIncent Bugliosi. I think Stone’s indictment of Lyndon Johnson deserves to be taken more seriously than anyone else’s." Continue reading →

Major Counter-Terrorism Expert: Hastings Car Crash “Consistent with a Car Cyber Attack.”

"Counter-terrorism expert Richard Clarke says that the circumstances of Michael Hasting’s car crash were 'consistent with a car cyber attack.'

Clarke served during both Bush presidencies and under Bill Clinton. Just what is a 'car cyber attack'? The answer can be found in two alarming papers by researchers at the University of Washington and the University of California, San Diego, 'Experimental Security Analysis of a Modern Vehicle,' ...

Ultimately, of course, this ended up happening at the Boston Marathon itself with precise accuracy." Continue reading →

Famed Non-Automotive Journalist Michael Hastings Turns A C250 Into A “Bomb”

"I’m not here to speak ill of the dead. I’m here to state that I’ve seen dozens of cars hit walls and stuff at high speeds and the number of them that I have observed to eject their powertrains and immediately catch massive fire is, um, ah, zero. Modern cars are very good at not catching fire in accidents. The Mercedes-Benz C-Class, which is an evolutionary design from a company known for sweating the safety details over and above the Euro NCAP requirements, should be leading the pack in the not-catching-on-fire category. Nor is the C-Class known for sudden veering out of control into trees and whatnot." Continue reading →
