People think telephone surveillance is a new thing but then, they're not old enough to have grown up with a party line. Eat your heart out, NSA. Sixty years ago, the entire country was listening in on each other's phone conversations. <\/p>\n

In a stunning announcement, Eric Schmidt, head of Alphabet, Inc., the holding company that owns Google, said today in a press conference at Google's headquarters in Mountain View, California, that at midnight on New Year's Eve of this year, the iconic Google search engine will become property of a new nonprofit organization called Unlimited Years of Search, or UYS. <\/p>\n
This week is #BannedBooksWeek and if you're wondering why we need an entire week to celebrate banned books you're probably one of those millennials who doesn't read anything longer than 140 characters. <\/p>\n

Snowden is a helluva movie, kicking an audience's ass on a number of levels. I had a chance to see the film at a preview event; it opens everywhere on September 16. Go see it. <\/p>\n

Oliver Stone has never met an American fiasco he didn't like, lament, and, with any luck, lambaste in one of his films. <\/p>\n
We need Snowden in America - for many good reasons. For those who see him as an enemy, we have always been taught to keep our enemies close to us and there is no logic to be found in forcing him into unsavory hands far from home. <\/p>\n

If you were Vladimir Putin, or President Xi of China, what would you do if you had the entire archive of Hillary Clinton's emails, classified and unclassified, \"deleted\" and not, in your hands? What value to you would that be in your next round of negotiations with the president of the United States? <\/p>\n

Even in the era of widening partisan gaps, it would be ill-advised to throw around indictments willy-nilly. Voters use James Comey's statements for the insights on Clinton's fitness for the presidency, not prison. <\/p>\n

In addition to its discussion of Saudi Consulate official Fahad Thumairy, there is also an FBI and CIA report that indicates that Khallad bin Attash was in Los Angeles in June 2000 -- compliments of \"diplomatic arrangements\" provided by Fahad Thumairy. To understand the relevance of this key piece of information, it is necessary to have some context. <\/p>\n
If I had to choose one phrase to sum up America's efforts against terrorism since 9\/11, it would be that lay definition of mental illness, doing the same thing over and over expecting different results. <\/p>\n

In the wake of yet another bizarre and uniquely American mass shooting, we once again we find ourselves bombarded by copypasta Facebook rants and half-literate pleas by experts on television. <\/p>\n
