Another Grand Jury?

The last grand jury “eco-terrorism” witch hunt in the Midwest didn’t go too far; the Feds dropped it after it was clear that the two activists wouldn’t cooperate in any way.

Linking Obama to “Eco-terrorists”

Capitalism Magazine (yes, there is such a thing, and no, I have no idea why capitalism needs its own magazine… in a way, isn’t nearly every mainstream magazine Capitalism Magazine?) has a series attacking Obama.

Eric McDavid was just sentenced to 20 years in prison, as a “terrorist,” in a case that would never have been possible without a “confidential source” known only as Anna. She was paid by the FBI.
