Activist Admits To Bugging US Senate Minority Leader
cold fjord writes "Curtis Morrison, co-founder of the Progress Kentucky PAC, which had previous issued an apology over a racially charged tweet about Senator McConnell's wife (former Secretary of Labor, Elaine Chao), has admitted to bugging Senator McConnell. Morrison admitted he was behind the recording and said a grand jury is investigating the situation. "[Assistant] U.S. attorney, Bryan Calhoun, telephoned my attorney yesterday, asking to meet with him next Friday as charges against me are being presented to a grand jury," Morrison wrote on Salon. Morrison writes that after releasing the recording, his personal life took a negative turn. 'I've never doubted that making the recording was ethical.' He also says that he doesn't believe his actions were illegal, but admits he could be prosecuted for them."' Morrison has said that one of his inspirations was Julian Assange. Given the current direction of government activity, he may simply have been trying to build a suitable resume for future federal employment."
I don't know that the media has changed that much. The media, along with the universities, is an arm of our progressive theocracy. They will hold people on the right accountable, but not the left. Rage against Nixon. Rage against Pinochet. But praise and fawning over Stalin, Mao, and Pol Pot. The left has no standard of justice beyond power - that which furthers their power is good.
Greetings, being from a bizarre parallel universe! Before you interact with anyone else, I must be quick to point out that nobody in the media or universities of this dimension praises Stalin, Mao, or Pol Pot. In fact, asserting something so ridiculous will get you nothing but strange looks, scorn, or sarcastic responses!
