It just doesn’t stop… another scandal… the US rule of law is suffering ‘calamitous collapse’…
Inspector General Investigator, Aurelia Fedensin, regarding being shut down…
“We were very upset…we expect to see ‘influence’…but the degree to which that influence existed, and how high up it went, was very disturbing.”



CBS News is reporting today (yes, the main stream media) that the State Department is covering up and halting investigations into drug rings and patronization of prostitutes solicited nearby foreign posts of US Ambassadors, by US Ambassadors and/or their security detail, as “higher ups” are telling investigators to back off. The problem is reportedly “endemic.”


“You have in these cities what we refer to as hostile intelligence services; I would be very surprised if some of those entities were not aware of the activities… so yes it presents a very serious risk”

- Aurelia Fedensin

Agents who are wanting to do the right thing are being stopped; their investigations covered up, while there is little doubt their careers may be put in jeopardy as State Department brass shuts them down.

State Department memo reveals possible cover-ups, halted investigations

Updated at 2:59 p.m. with comment from the State Department.


(CBS News) CBS News has uncovered documents that show the State Department may have covered up allegations of illegal and inappropriate behavior within their ranks.

The Diplomatic Security Service, or the DSS, is the State Department's security force, charged with protecting the secretary of state and U.S. ambassadors overseas and with investigating any cases of misconduct on the part of the 70,000 State Department employees worldwide.

CBS News' John Miller reports that according to an internal State Department Inspector General's memo, several recent investigations were influenced, manipulated, or simply called off. The memo obtained by CBS News cited eight specific examples. Among them: allegations that a State Department security official in Beirut "engaged in sexual assaults" on foreign nationals hired as embassy guards and the charge and that members of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's security detail "engaged prostitutes while on official trips in foreign countries" -- a problem the report says was "endemic."

So much for bettering our reputation. What ever happened to this new "transparent" government?

Transparent as in Invisible.
