Today's news and jokes







("Two reporters who cover the New York Police Department had their access to the agency’s headquarters temporarily revoked on Thursday, a day after federal agents seized the phone of the city’s police commissioner" "On Wednesday, federal agents seized the phones of five top Adams administration officials")











(If I understood the article, he's supposedly done it succesfully at least 90 times over a decade, and tells anecdotes like this: Generally, it’s the other way around. But slipups do happen. And even one misstep can threaten a case. A few years back, while driving his car, [the whistleblower] was on the phone speaking with a subject. The man asked who had referred [the whistleblower] to him; [the whistleblower] dropped a name. The man on the phone responded: “That’s funny. I just hired that person. He’s never heard of you before.” [The whistleblower] finished up the call and pulled over to the side of the road. He was so angry at himself that he got out of the car and smashed the burner phone he’d been using to pieces with his foot. He learned from that experience: Don’t ever say something to a possible scammer unless you’re absolutely sure that it won’t come back to bite you.)





(“Over the past five decades, the West LA VA has been infected by bribery, corruption, and the influence of the powerful and their lobbyists")
