    The real cause involves real estate deals and Wall Street bankers.

  10. Britain's new State Threats Act makes it a crime to receive information from designated groups — with no journalist exemption. 14 years for doing your job. The government ignored warnings from BOTH independent reviewers. This is how democracies eat their own press.

  15. I’m seeing a lot of good news coming out of the U.S. regarding restraints applied by judges to Trump’s policies…

    “Criticized by a federal judge for sloppy legal work, the government on Thursday grudgingly withdrew subpoenas that would have compelled three New York Times reporters to testify about their sources for articles about President Donald Trump’s Qatari-gifted Air Force One jet.

    The withdrawals in U.S. District Court followed a remarkable back and forth between a visibly irritated Judge Arun Subramanian and government lawyers. They come at a time when the Trump administration is vigorously going after news organizations whose reporting and coverage it doesn’t like — and also trying to crack down on leaks inside the government.

    The government’s retreat in the face of vigorous legal opposition and a stern reprimand from a judge marked the latest instance of the Justice Department pulling back on its aggressive efforts to compel journalists to identify their sources before a grand jury. The administration recently withdrew similar subpoenas that sought to compel testimony in Virginia from journalists for The Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal related to separate national security coverage.”
