Was the Decision to Let Manafort Go Home Political? The entire system is broken. The misguided "get tough on crime" attitude in Washington has made us a prison state unlike any other in the world. As Americans, we like to think that we're (usually) led by the best and brightest. Certainly the best and brightest can come up with a justice system where there's some actual "justice."

JOHN KIRIAKOU: "Tough Luck" for US Prisoners During COVID-19 Prison wardens and the federal Bureau of Prisons almost never use their compassionate release authorities, even though Congress recently made it easier for them to do so.

JOHN KIRIAKOU: Now Imagine House Arrest With Covid-19 showing why "sheltering in place" is so tough, it's easier for me to explain why I found home confinement worse than actual prison.

The Torture Report Is "Don't Miss" Television You will come to realize only minutes into this film that our intelligence services and the White House are run by sociopaths -- people with no capacity for remorse or regret, people for whom human rights, civil rights, civil liberties, and the rule of law mean literally nothing.

James Comey's Interview on Fox News Screams Out for Correction The former FBI director knew exactly what his agency had on Carter Page and, contrary his assertion, it's incredibly easy to get a FISA warrant.

Those Torture Drawings in the NYTimes The Times tells a little about the CIA's torture program, but ignores the Obama role in continuing it and underestimates the vast extent of the program, which remains classified.

The Press Should Not Be Shielding FBI Malfeasance The Washington Post and others just adhered to the Justice Department's own policy of protecting their own while wrecking the lives of those who have the guts to stand up to them.

Houthi Rebels are the Saudis' Problem Given the nature of the U.S.-Saudi relationship, which John Kiriakou witnessed firsthand, Trump has no reason to do Riyadh's bidding in Iran.

CIA Seeking More Impunity The CIA doesn't care when an operative's identity is revealed unless they don't like the politics of the person making the revelation. If they cared, half of the CIA leadership would be in prison. What they do care about, though, is protecting those employees who commit crimes at the behest of the White House or the CIA leadership.

With Trump's Iranian Misadventure, Putin Wins Again Well, we walked right up to the brink of war with Iran last week. Again. It didn't happen, of course, and The Washington Post, The New York Times, and other journals of record are replete with minute-by-minute explanations of what happened when and why. Much of it is nonsense. And much more of the coverage ignores the bigger-picture analysis.

Biden Has No Idea What He Did Wrong Troubling, Biden is often wrong on the issues really, seriously wrong at least where progressives are concerned. And his knee-jerk reaction is to double down before finally admitting his mistake and hoping that people just forget about it.

Why Is NPR Carrying Water for Trump on Venezuela? The White House's actions in Venezuela are a violation of international law. This is a coup attempt. It's a crime. I'm not a Nicolas Maduro fan-boy. But it's none of our business who leads a foreign country, especially when his or her people hold an election. This intervention is just plain wrong. Hands off Venezuela. And every other country.
