Sickos see where man who allegedly threatened Boehner’s life ‘is coming from’

http://twitter.com/#!/eriContrarian/status/464847930478694400

Last night, a man was arrested for allegedly threatening the life of Rep. John Boehner. The suspect is reportedly upset because Congress hasn’t extended unemployment insurance:

More details from Politico:

Brandon James Thompson was receiving unemployment checks for $341 each month, and they ended Jan. 11, according to an FBI affidavit. Thompson allegedly made a number of threats on Boehner’s website and to his wife’s cell phone. Thompson had a concealed carry permit and no criminal history, the FBI said. He admitted to the threatening calls, the FBI said.

Believe it or not, there are those who think that what the man is accused of doing is wrong, but at the same time they could sort of understand his frustration with Boehner:

Morgan Stanley Reaches $2.6 Billion Settlement Over Mortgage-Backed Securities

The bank said it had reached a preliminary agreement with the Justice Department today.

Morgan Stanley, one of two remaining large independent investment banks, said today that it had reached a preliminary $2.6 billion settlement with the Justice Department over its dealings with mortgage-backed securities before the financial crisis.

The company said in a filing today that the civil division of the Justice Department and the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of California had intended to bring civil charges against the bank, and it has increased its reserves for legal losses by $2.8 billion. The bank said that while an agreement had been reached, “there can be no assurance that the Company and the Civil Division will agree on the final documentation of the settlement.”

Because Morgan Stanley has yet to file its form 10-Q for the fourth quarter, the charge from the settlement will hit its net income for last year. When Morgan Stanley preliminarily announced its fourth-quarter results, it said that it had set aside $284 million to deal with “legacy residential mortgage legal expenses.” But the $2.8 billion it has now set aside still outpaces the $2.6 billion it has agreed to with the Justice Department.

While Morgan Stanley didn’t say exactly how the money will be divvied up, there is a clue in looking at past settlements. When other big banks have settled civil claims over their marketing and sales of mortgage-backed securities, they tend to pay out to both the Justice Department and some states whose attorneys general have pursued investigations of them. In the $7 billion settlement with Citigroup, for example, the bank paid a $4 billion civil penalty to the Justice Department and almost $300 million to five states.

In a regulatory filing in November, Morgan Stanley said that the Virginia Attorney General had filed a civil suit against it over sales of mortgage securities to the Virginia Retirement System, which administers pension plans for state employees, and Illinois’ Attorney General had sent it a letter alleging that Morgan Stanley had “knowingly made misrepresentations related to RMBS” sold to pension funds affiliated with the state and demanded Morgan Stanley pay $88 million.

Morgan Stanley is the latest bank to shell out for a large settlement to resolve a Justice Department civil investigation of its pre-financial-crisis creation and marketing of mortgage-backed securities. The bundles of home loans packaged into bonds and sold to investors were central to the financial meltdown and recession that followed. Bank of America paid $16.65 billion to settle with the Justice Department and other regulators, while JPMorgan Chase paid $13 billion.

The Wall Street Journal reported earlier this week that Goldman Sachs was “inching closer to resolving U.S. claims” that it had “misled investors in mortgage bonds that plummeted in value during the financial crisis.”

Goldman said in a regulatory filing that it had raised its estimate for legal losses from $2.5 billion to $3 billion. Goldman said in the filing that the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of California had sent the bank a letter “stating in connection with potentially bringing a civil action that it had preliminarily concluded that the firm had violated federal law in connection with its underwriting, securitization and sale of residential mortgage-backed securities.”

Allen West worried political correctness at work in Hasan trial

http://twitter.com/#!/AllenWest/status/369527593541713920

The judge presiding over the trial of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Hasan today barred several pieces of evidence the prosecution believed would help establish Hasan’s motivation in the attack. Among those pieces of evidence were three emails suspected to have been sent to American-born cleric and Hasan’s “teacher and mentor and friend” Anwar al-Awlaki, who was killed in a U.S. drone strike in 2011.

Also barred are Hasan’s interest in being granted conscientious objector status and an academic presentation he had given questioning the war on terror.

http://twitter.com/#!/KDHcrime/status/369477611044364289

Prosecutors will, however, be allowed to introduce Hasan’s Internet search history to demonstrate his interest in jihad.

Former Rep. Allen West wants to know if the invisible hand of political correctness is at work in this case of “workplace violence” and not treason.

http://twitter.com/#!/ctbauza/status/369528132505587713 http://twitter.com/#!/afed3352/status/369534254452973569 http://twitter.com/#!/ThreeDogsGrille/status/369532568267264000 http://twitter.com/#!/MillerGolden48/status/369556972514721792 http://twitter.com/#!/steve_seatam86/status/369576882464776192

In a pre-trial hearing, Hasan told the judge he had committed the massacre to protect the Taliban from members of the United States military who were about to deploy to Afghanistan. Last week, he apologized in court for being an imperfect Muslim who had made mistakes in doing his part to help establish a strict version of Islam.

So, why isn’t he on trial for treason?
