POLITICO Illinois Playbook: Students heckle EMANUEL with ‘16 shots’
chant -- FOXX’s new support -- FBI praise for ALVAREZ

Good Thursday morning, Illinois. Mayor Rahm Emanuel is still
struggling to regain his political footing more than three weeks after
the release of dashcam video showing a Chicago police officer fatally
shooting 17-year-old Laquan McDonald.
Story Continued Below
On Wednesday -- the same day officer Jason Van Dyke was indicted on
first-degree murder and official misconduct charges -- the mayor was
reminded how very real public anger remains over his administration’s
handling of the case. When he stood before a typically friendly crowd
at the Urban Prep campus in Englewood to students suddenly began
chanting “16 shots!” Elsewhere in the city, Department of Justice
officials were meeting with Chicago police brass as it dissects the
department’s practices.
Cook County State’s Attorney Anita Alvarez is facing the same kind of
issues and her March primary opponents are seizing on her
vulnerabilities. Today, the clout-heavy Thornton Township Democratic
Committee is expected to formally endorse Kim Foxx, former chief of
staff to Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle.
Critics have slammed Alvarez for taking more than a year to indict Van
Dyke and she has strenuously defended her role, say

FBI Official: The President Is Very Interested In Flooding This
Country With People From The Middle East For Some Reason
December 14, 2015 ·
James Kallstrom, a former assistant FBI Director, blew the “Obama’s a
secret Muslim” dog whistle on Fox News last night. There wasn’t a peep
of challenge from host Jeanine Pirro.
In a discussion about terrorism on Justice with Judge Jeanine,
Kalstrom announced, “I think Donald Trump had it largely right” about
barring Muslims from entering the country. “I mean, we need to take a
pause because it’s a joke,” Kallstrom said about our vetting process.
“We don’t have any idea who these people are.”
Host Jeanine Pirro interrupted to make the criticism more about
President Obama. “But the president knows this,” Pirro said pointedly.
And Bingo!
KALLSTROM: The president is very interested in flooding this
country with people from the Middle East for some reason.
PIRRO: Do you believe that?
KALLSTROM: Well, for some reason. I’m not gonna say what the
reason is but there’s some reason why this is happening. And why
aren’t the Christians coming into this country? And why aren’t some of
the others, you know, who are being massacred, not that the Muslims
aren’t being massacred, they are. And we have a lot of great Muslims.
Look at all the Muslims on the New York PD…
Pirro has an unhinged hatred for Obama, so it’s no surprise that she
would not challenge this outrageous statement.

FBI lawyer helped destroy
TWA Flight 800
http://www.cashill.com/twa800/top_fbi_lawyer.htm
In August 2003, a former U.S. attorney in the Clinton administration,
Valerie Caproni, was appointed to the top legal job within the Federal
Bureau of Investigation – that of general counsel. As such, she
provides legal advice to the director and other FBI officials and,
among other duties, coordinates the defense of civil actions filed
against the United States for the official acts of FBI employees.
"This is the coolest job in the world," the 5-foot-tall Caproni
recently told Robert Vosper, author of a 4,000-word profile on Caproni
in the Corporate Legal Times titled, "The Chosen One." "I can be doing
national security stuff in the morning, a Patriot Act issue after
lunch and an employment problem in the afternoon."
Caproni, however, has a clouded legal past that provides an
unfortunate study in how the national security apparatus can function
if placed in the wrong hands. Working in the Clinton Justice
Department, Caproni did not need the Patriot Act to go awry.
The co-author of this article, James Sanders, learned about Caproni
early in his investigation into the crash of TWA Flight 800. Within
days of the crash, it was she who illegally took the investigation
away from the National Transportation Safety Board and gave it to the
FBI.
The relevant law [Title 49, section 1131(a)(2)] reads as follows: "An
investigation by the Board ... has priority over any investigation by
another department, agency or instrumentality of the United States
Government." The "Board" in question is the National Transportation
Safety Board. In other words, a "parallel" FBI investigation is by law
inferior to the NTSB investigation.
Caproni, as head of the Justice Department Criminal District, Eastern
District of New York, knew the law. She knew that the FBI was the
subordinate agency. She knew that the NTSB could not legally be
restricted in its pursuit of information. Still, in spite of the law,
she used the full weight of the Justice Department, and the
intimidating presence of the FBI, to order the NTSB witness group to
cease and desist all of the critical eyewitness interviews.
"As for the charges that she and the FBI took over investigation,"
writes Vosper casually, "Caproni says she is guilty." The FBI never
did declare TWA Flight 800 a crime scene, the only possible
justification for Caproni's intrusion. An NTSB document reveals that
Caproni and the Justice Department took over the investigation to
ensure that only one story emerged from the witness interviews, the
official story, their story. In this, she fully succeeded.
Caproni, alas, was just warming up. Her second major transgression was
to place herself in charge of a grand jury investigating Sanders and
his wife, Elizabeth. Sanders had received a residue sample from a
source in the TWA Flight 800 investigation in his attempt to expose
potential criminal misconduct by the same FBI that Caproni herself had
illicitly imposed on site.
In the course of her investigation into the Sanders, Caproni crossed
over the line into criminal territory [USC Title 18, section 1001].
She did so by declaring in writing that she did not know Sanders was a
journalist, thus making it possible to seize his phone records and
ultimately his computer and the information contained within its hard
drive.
Caproni's purported ignorance of Sanders' profession defies belief.
She, in fact, first learned about James Sanders from an account of his
investigation in the Riverside Press Enterprise, March 10, 1997.
Sanders' name was easy to find. It was on page one, above the fold,
second paragraph of the lead story. To the immediate left of "James
Sanders" were two words that challenge Caproni's innocence . The two
words were "Investigative Reporter." Indeed, even the Corporate Legal
Times' profile on Caproni describes Sanders as a "freelance
journalist."
It was Sanders' reporting that first alerted Caproni to the problem at
hand, namely that a journalist was probing into potential criminal
acts within the TWA 800 investigation – acts likely committed by
federal officials. These officials, she knew, included herself and the
FBI head of the investigation, James Kallstrom, who had been coerced
into cooperating. The conflict of interest here should have caused
Caproni to recuse herself. If not Caproni, her supervisors in the
White House, Jamie Gorelick and Janet Reno, should never have allowed
Caproni to pursue a case against her own potential accuser. But then
again, it was the future 9-11 commissioner Gorelick who had leaned on
Kallstrom.
When Sanders first met with Caproni in April 1997, he had no idea of
the hornet's nest he was walking in to. Escorted by Jeff Schlanger, a
former New York prosecutor, Sanders sat across from Caproni and a
senior FBI agent. A large video taping system recorded the entire
meeting. As part of the federal system used for video meetings during
times of crisis, it was hooked up to other systems in Washington, D.C.
as well as at the FBI's New York City headquarters. The Clinton
Justice department had its first look at the retired cop turned
journalist who threatened its grip on power.
At this meeting, Caproni told Sanders he would become the "target" of
a Justice Department/FBI investigation if he did not immediately turn
over the names of those inside the investigation who were assisting
him. Sanders refused. His attorney argued for Sanders' First Amendment
rights as a reporter. Caproni was not impressed.
The only words that count in a criminal case are those in the trial
transcript, spoken under oath. Sanders' attorney at the April 1997
meeting, Jeff Schlanger, was placed under oath at the Sanders'
criminal trial two years later. These are the relevant words from the
trial transcript:
Q: Did the government indicate at that meeting what, if any, actions
they were prepared to take with respect to Liz Sanders?
A: At the very end of that meeting there was a change in the status of
Mrs. Sanders from being just a subject in the investigation, to a
possible target in the investigation. And that was communicated
directly to myself and Mr. Sanders.
Q: And when you say [it] was communicated directly to you, what was
your understanding if she did not cooperate?
A: That the government would at least attempt to seek an indictment
against her as well.
Q: Now ...
A: It wasn't if she did not cooperate. It was if Mr. Sanders did not
cooperate."
The feds had a complete audio-video tape of the meeting. An FBI agent
at that meeting was in the courtroom, available to rebut this sworn
testimony. The Justice Department declined to engage further in the
issue. Why? The testimony accurately reflected what the Justice
Department video contained.
At that point the trial should have been over. The judge was certainly
aware that Caproni had crossed the line once again into unlawful
territory. Her threat against Elizabeth, now revealed in open court,
constituted "vindictive prosecution." Worse, it violated the civil
rights of the Sanders as no evidence was ever produced to validate
Caproni's rationale for targeting Elizabeth. Caproni had simply
exploited Elizabeth, holding her hostage to Justice Department
chicanery, in a last-minute gambit to get her husband to identify his
source.
But the trial did not end with this revelation. Caproni had stacked
the federal deck against the Sanders. Both were convicted of
conspiracy to steal airplane parts – a law designed to protect crash
sites from scavengers. The mainstream media, so seemingly keen on
constitutional rights in the Ashcroft era, mocked the Sanders as
"conspiracy theorists" and generally applauded their conviction.
In the years that followed, as Sanders served out his three-year
probation, he often wondered why Caproni and her allies had hammered
him so. A summation of her arguably illicit acts defies easy
explanation. These include:
Illegally turning the TWA 800 investigation over to the FBI.
Leading a grand jury investigation of a reporter who was
investigating her own misconduct.
Denying in writing any knowledge that he was a reporter so she
could seize his computer and phone records.
Threatening the vindictive prosecution of Sanders' wife to force
Sanders to cooperate.
Making this threat knowing there was no evidence against Elizabeth
Sanders.
Overseeing the Sanders' conviction on irrelevant and gratuitous
charges, thereby silencing her most dangerous journalist critic.
Only recently, upon discovering another reason beyond the obvious, did
Sanders begin to understand Caproni's behavior. This reason, recently
revealed, is a jaw dropper. In that ill-fated summer of 1996, Caproni,
Kallstrom and other senior FBI agents may well have unwittingly
assisted Islamic terrorist Ramzi Yousef in his effort to destroy an
American commercial airliner.
At the time, Caproni was involved in an ongoing sting operation
against Yousef. While being tried in federal court for his role in
Operation Bojinka, Yousef's diabolical plot to destroy American
targets through the air, Yousef operated under the illusion of having
a safe telephone within his New York City jail
Yousef thought he was routing messages to the outside world through a
phone controlled by the New York Cosa Nostra. Five-time Emmy-winner
