The FBI’s Computer System Is Still A Monumental Failure That Is Once Again Behind Schedule

FBI Director Robert S. Mueller

I guess the FBI isn’t tired of failure. Recently, it was announced again that their long overdue computer system (software and hardware) is behind schedule and costing taxpayers a bundle, pardon the pun. The Judiciary Report previously wrote about the topic: IG: FBI Computer System On Track For Failure and FBI Computer System Still A Financial Sinkhole.

Once again, years ago, the Judiciary Report’s sister site, the Sound Off Column, predicted this would happen (www.soundoffcolumn.com/june_06.htm). When the site started writing about the FBI, the law enforcement agency didn’t even have a computer system or basic emails. Agents did everything by pen, pad and tape recorder. The site laid out a plan for achieving a great computer system and warned what not to do lest they fail and run into monumental delays.

The FBI didn’t listen to the warnings and the Sound Off Column’s predicted worst case scenarios happened, leading to the U.S. taxpayers getting burned big time, which all could have been avoided. When I write things it is for a reason. The FBI reads my websites everyday according to site statistics, so they saw the suggestions and have no excuse for running amok like they did.

At the end of the day, the U.S. taxpayers are left holding the bag to the tune of a few hundred million dollars in wasted money via the failed computer system. That adds to the national deficit. Do you know how many jobs could have been created with that few hundred million dollars.

Obama Slammed Again Over Stimulus As $500,000,000 Went To Building Cars In Foreign Nation (Video)

video platformvideo managementvideo solutionsvideo player

U.S. President Barack Obama is in more trouble, due to stimulus funds he issued that did not benefit America. It has been revealed, Obama gave a new company called Fisker $529,000,000 in taxpayer funds, via the failed stimulus, for the unit to build electric cars in Finland, rather than America. This resulted in U.S. taxpayer funds creating jobs abroad, rather than in America.

Barack Obama

Add this to the billions more in stimulus funds that did not stimulate the U.S. economy, such as Obama personally giving solar company Solyndra $500,000,000 in U.S. taxpayer funds, only for the company to go bankrupt shortly after and it becomes evident the president is not good with money or astute at making wise financial investments. America needs a president that understands business and trade and how to generate jobs and revenues.

The Obamas Go Campaigning During Hawaii Christmas Vacation Only To Be Confronted By A Baby

Baby: I'm going to GOP this dude!

After heavy public criticism in domestic and international papers and on websites, regarding their expensive $4,000,000 Hawaii Christmas vacation during negative financial times, President Obama and his family have been making public appearances to meet with service members and potential everyday voters.

Baby: didn't see that one coming, did you!

The president was seen posing with babies and children in photographs. One baby in particular got all the attention. Depending on which publication you read, the baby either popped Obama in the mouth or tried to grab his nose. The slap on the mouth may indicate the baby is a Republican (kidding).

Mrs. Obama Slammed In The Press Again For Running Up The Tab On Her Family's $4,000,000 Hawaii Vacation

The Obamas

Initial estimates indicated, First Lady Michelle Obama, cost the U.S. taxpayer an additional $100,000 by leaving early for the family's Hawaii vacation. However, a new report in the mainstream press suggests, the entire episode has cost the U.S. taxpayers $4,000,000. This occurred during a financial depression.

Critics are slamming Mrs. Obama for feasting on sumptuous food and having extravagant parties on the island, during very hard economic times, when the nation has a record high poverty rate. Many Americans are losing their homes and can't afford a vacation, opting to stay at home. Seeing her live it up on the taxpayers dime and at extra cost is being roundly slammed on many a message board and in feedback sections online. Mainstream news outlets have picked up on it as well.

Even with her initial spending that drew the original criticism from journalists and bloggers, Mrs. Obama did not tone down the expenditures, making a greater show of the people's wealth while away from Washington. It makes the First Family appear out of touch with the rest of the country.

Poll: Obama Will Lose The 2012 Election By A Landslide

Barack Obama

According to polling data, U.S. President Barack Obama, is on track to lose the 2012 election, as he is performing poorly in swing states. An article on the Examiner website asks why. It's simple, the public is tired of suffering under terrible financial burdens that have only gotten worse, while Obama experiments with economic patch jobs that keep breaking down again.

The president is not using the correct methods of finance and budgeting the correct the economy. There are no proven results present in his presidency, because in 2009 he took the unusual step of eliminating fiscal discipline from the national budget, in favor of excessive spending, where his campaign donors made out like bandits. In politics, people want results and when they don't see them its goodbye for that politician.

The Hill Poll: Obama Won’t Win Re-Election

Monday, 19 Dec 2011 11:52 AM - A plurality of likely voters believes President Barack Obama will lose his re-election bid next year, according to a new poll by The Hill. The survey showed 46 percent of respondents think Obama will lose, while 41 percent believe he will win.

Among independents, who will likely determine the election’s outcome, 43 percent see Obama getting re-elected and 40 percent don’t. That 3-percentage-point gap matches the poll’s margin of error.

Given those numbers, it’s not too surprising that voters don’t give the president high marks for his first term. A majority 51 percent of respondents regard Obama as either a failure (37 percent) or not very successful (14 percent). Meanwhile, 48 percent say he was either very successful (16 percent) or somewhat successful (32 percent)...

Mrs. Obama Being Criticized Online For Her Trip To Hawaii Due To The Price Tag On The Taxpayers Tab

The Obamas

A number of domestic and international websites and newspapers have been criticizing First Lady Michelle Obama, for taking separate flights from her husband, President Barack Obama, to begin their Hawaii vacation. It is being reported Mrs. Obama's travel expenses will cost the taxpayers at least $100,000 this Christmas in avoidable fees, enough to feed many families.

She is also being criticized for the number of vacations she has taken this year and the millions it has cost the taxpayers. In these tough economic times, when people are losing their jobs, homes and savings, the First Family need to remember that these extravagances do not look good in any fashion. It is causing anger and resentment on many message boards and feedback columns all over the internet, with complaints from suffering Americans struggling under Obama's failed financial policies.

Falling In Line With Corruption In Politics

...And The Damage It Causes Society

When a then Senator Obama ran for the job of President of the United States, he mounted a grass roots campaign, misleading the populace that he was in favor of the poor and would change things for the better. Three years on he has changed things for the worst. Despite public warnings, he spent the nation into a bigger financial hole, refused to make necessary budget cuts and did not tax the rich to bring in much needed tax revenue. Now he seeks a second term to do more of the same and America would collapse under that debt trajectory he has planned.

Obama went to Washington and fell in line with the corruption, spending taxpayer money on fruitless endeavors that trample decency and thrift in favor of greed and mercilessness to the poor. He has compromised and sold out the American people in favor of rich donors called "bundlers" (bring in $250,000 each) as they sought him to champion their hedonistic, greedy, unethical lifestyles, which is why his presidency has failed. It's time he admits that and stop playing the people for fools. What he did has not worked for the economy.

When you can boast your time in office resulted in child poverty reaching an all time high and a record number of Americans losing their homes, cars, savings and jobs, with some U.S. states surpassing Great Depression levels in unemployment, you have failed. It's only a matter of time before other states catch up if the problem is not corrected. Own up to it. You did the wrong thing and now millions are suffering (see Obama's "shovel ready" jobs fiasco). It's been three years since Bush kick started this financial nightmare and Obama has not been the sweet dream to remedy it. He has been the sequel.

Some play the race card in attempting to defend the past three abysmal years, but do look at the numbers, black people in America are poorer than they've ever been. Stop making everything about race. Look at the facts. As a black person I wanted him to succeed as the first black president of America, but the public has seen such treachery from him.

He has repeatedly looked the other way to the unthinkable, which is a bad sign. He has done the wrong thing on a number of issues and many have been hurt because of it. He is the one that needs change, as in he needs to change and stop dishonoring black people everywhere that went to bat for him, only for him to spectacularly strike out.

The British Government To Invest 1 Billion Pounds In Employing The Youth Of The Nation

David Cameron

The British Government, headed by Prime Minister, David Cameron, has announced an initiative, to employ British youth, by spending 1 billion pounds in taxpayer funds to create new jobs. This initiative could prove successful, if proper controls are placed on the funds, to prevent waste, mismanagement, misappropriation and undue bureaucracy, which can stifle job creation efforts in any nation.

This initiative could change the hopelessness of many youth, who are struggling to find sustainable work and get off the dole. Having a good, productive job goes a far way in boosting a person's self-esteem and outlook on the future.

Tips To Help Save Your Home From Foreclosure

The article link posted below features useful advice on how to save your home from a foreclosure, via assumable mortgages, where via the bank, a prospective buyer can take over your payments, give you a bit of cash and free you from a potential courthouse auction, which is said to be more damaging to a credit report.

The Judiciary Report still would like to see the government do more to help homeowners stay in their homes, via federal programs with agreeable terms. People have paid property taxes and other forms of tax as well for years and deserve help from the government to save their homes. The banks received help, why shouldn't' the people.

35 Members Of Congress Demand Eric Holder's Resignation For The Deaths Associated With His Illegal Gunwalking Program


Eric Holder

35 members of the U.S. Congress are demanding the resignation of President Obama's Attorney General, Eric Holder, who has been more trouble than he's worth in the post. The recent "Fast And Furious" scandal, regarding Holder approving a program that sent illegal guns into the hands of the drug cartels in Mexico, without tracing them, led to the murders of two U.S. border patrol agents and many Mexican civilians.

DOJ weapons found in cartel assassin's home in Mexico

This unjustifiable criminal negligence has him on the hot seat in Congress, over his appalling conduct. Emails reveal Holder knew of, approved and used taxpayer money to execute the terrible program that has left many families without their loved ones.

Barack Obama continues to support Holder and it is going to cost him votes in the 2012 election

In the face of all this damning evidence, Holder refuses to leave the Justice Department, where his corrupt breed of management has caused President Obama an enormous amount of national embarrassments before the American people. These deaths could have been avoided, but Holder is a man that has show via his deeds in a number of cases, he does not care about human life.

If The U.S. Government Does Not Fix The Economy In The Near Future Unemployment Is Going To Hit 20%

Barack Obama

If the U.S. government, led by President Barack Obama, does not fix the economy, choosing to engage in the same financial discourse and decisions that is making the crisis worse, unemployment in America is going to hit 20%. Thus far, the Obama administration had two failed job creation attempts and is seeking a third with more taxpayer money the nation cannot afford to waste on the wrong things. Will common sense and good judgment finally come into play or will it be more of the same with President Obama's latest job bill.

Obama "Seeking To Capitalize" On "Occupy Wall Street" Protests For His Campaign

Reports state U.S. President Barack Obama is attempting to capitalize on the "Occupy Wall Street" protestors and their pertinent and relevant message. However, President Obama needs to realize that sadly, he is apart of the problem. Former President George W. Bush started this crisis, but President Obama has propagated. He has given hundreds of billions of dollars in taxpayer money to multinational U.S. banks, financial institutions and other corporations, who are hoarding the money.

Barack Obama

Obama needs to do his part in either getting that taxpayer money back or using legislation and the Justice Department to legally compel said corporations to invest the stimulus funds via hiring new employees and or adding new product lines, to stimulate growth. Hoarding is a massive road block to recovery and as the Judiciary Report stated over two years ago, proper controls need to be placed on stimulus funds, but the government simply did not do this.

Vice President Joe Biden and President Barack Obama

As a result, the taxpayers are getting burned in this bad deal. The IRS has not done enough to close loopholes in the tax code and taxes on the rich need to experience a small increase. It will raise billions of dollars towards hiring more unemployed people and reducing the deficit. Getting America out of this financial hole is not complicated. These measures have worked for other national and international governments in the past. Congress just does not want to do it.

Greedy Green

Even After The Bankruptcy Of Solyndra Obama Rushes Through Billion More In Green Loans

Barack Obama at Solyndra

After the massive collapse and bankruptcy of U.S. President Barack Obama's $535,000,000 pet project, funded by the taxpayers, known as the solar company Solyndra, most would think the administration would be more cautious in doling out the people's money in said sector of the economy. Not so.

The Obama Administration has just rushed out $9 billion dollars more in taxpayer money to the solar industry, in an attempt at beating China, which has cost effectively perfected the sale and distribution of said apparatus, at a very low cost.

Once again, as the Judiciary Report has stated for 2 and a 1/2 years, these non-necessity initiatives need to be placed on the back burner, until America is on stronger financial footing. The taxpayers and the nation deficit cannot afford any more costly mistakes.

If I were a head of state facing the financial problems America is, I would stick to proven industries that can provide quick and robust returns and shore them up. You reward success, not failure. Yes, it is wise to not give up, but one must use common sense and moderation in how one goes about things, when trying again, especially when the financial stability and success of a nation of 305,000,000 people are at stake.

An Eye Opening Look At Rick Perry's Controversial Social Security Ponzi Scheme Statements


Rick Perry

Texas Governor and presidential candidate, Rick Perry, upset some when he referred to Social Security as a "ponzi scheme." I’m hoping he is not right in this matter, but here's what is leaving the door open that he very well may be.

A ponzi scheme is condcuted by a fraudster(s) that collected money from investors, on a financial scam they have no intention of making good on, with positive monetary returns, while securing your investment. They keep seeking out new investors, to use their newly collected money, to pay alleged returns to the first set of investors. The pattern keeps repeating itself, until all the principal paid by all the investors has been squandered away, not only on issuing checks for bogus, non-existent returns, but also to pay for unauthorized, frivolous and illegal activity by the fraudster.

In July 2011, when President Obama stated, he could not guarantee that Social Security checks will go out, if the debt ceiling was not raised, it caught my attention. Why would Social Security, an old, allegedly wealthy fund, with trillions of dollars in taxpayer money, be in danger of not being properly distributed, as it has been for years.

Did some unscrupulous person(s) in the government spend most or all of the money in an unauthorized manner and Washington is using borrowed money to send out the checks each month. Why else would the President say something like that.

What oh what could have depleted those funds. Hmm let’s see - two wars in the Middle East could destroy trillions over the course of several years. The movie "The Obama Deception" also points to the fact, in the transitional time period, between former president, George W. Bush, preparing to leave office and President Obama assuming it, trillions in U.S. taxpayer money mysteriously went missing.

Barack Obama

It would be an evil thing if the people’s money in the Social Security fund was no longer there, after millions paid into it in good faith. For years, I’ve heard so many seniors say they have paid into Social Security for decades, which will tie them over in their old age, until they pass.

My mother paid into social security for over 30-years and she is one of many thinking their money is still there. Many seniors in Florida and around the nation will readily admit, they use their monthly Social Security checks to pay for food, utilities and transportation. They are not "bling blinging" with this money, as the modern phrase goes. It is being used on necessities.

For those seniors that lost their homes during the current foreclosure fiasco that gripped the nation, when banks colluded and drastically raised interest rates in a short space of time, thus sending monthly payments through the roof, leaving many unable to pay their adjustable mortgages, their Social Security checks are paying for rent as well.

If the U.S. government messes around and the Social Security fund collapses, millions will go homeless in America, as there are many senior citizens in the nation, many of whom are infirmed, the job market is poor and there exists ageism in it as well creating discrimination issues. The government needs to get its act together, as the welfare of many is at stake.

Executives From Obama's Bankrupt Solyndra Will Plead The Fifth In Congressional Hearing

Barack Obama

Reuters is reporting today that executives of the newly bankrupt solar company, Solyndra, who President Obama fully backed, attended their corporate meetings and gave $500,000,000 in taxpayer money the country will never see again, will plead the fifth in Congressional hearings, invoking the Constitution, to prevent self-incrimination. This lends the appearance of guilt on their part and the taxpayers deserve a better explanation, rather than none at all via a cop out.

Government Gullibility: Played For Suckers Or Was Solyndra A Front For Something Else


Barack Obama to White House staffer: this is the President. I'd like for you to send some gold bricks to Solyndra and gift wrap it with the note, "From Barry, with Love."

In reading the latest information coming out about the bankruptcy of President Obama's favored Solyndra solar company, which wasted over a half a billion dollars of taxpayer money, one is left to wonder, was the government really that gullible, did Solyndra play the Obama administration for suckers or was the company a cover for something else.

$535 million dollars is a lot of money to commit to a new company, especially one with unproven products and services. Yet, the government had no qualms about doing so, fast tracking the loan within six days, jumping in head first, in what was a terrible deal from the outset. Do you know how many small businesses in America would love a simple $5,000 to $10,000 loan and can't get one, yet Solyndra received this windfall of cash.

President Barack Obama and Chris Gronet of Solyndra

The FBI demands taxpayer money from Congress, claiming it is for one thing, but behind closed doors, often uses it for illegal secret programs that shred the U.S. Constitution. Was Solyndra using taxpayer money for reasons other than what was disclosed to the public, as I find it hard to believe any company could blow through half a billion dollars and have absolutely nothing to show for it. What happened here.

I have a question, if I go to Home Depot, buy some sheets of Plexiglas, spray them black, leave them out in the sun and call it a solar initiative, will the government give me $528,000,000 to play with too. Hey, it doesn't hurt to ask.

The FBI raiding Solyndra. Yea, now they want to investigate something, after the brown stuff hit the fan and the taxpayers' money is gone

An article published yesterday in the San Francisco Chronicle indicates, Solyndra sent an "upbeat" report to the government in July 2011 and they apparently bought it hook line and sinker (Feds probe Solyndra's upbeat July report). This was six weeks before they filed for bankruptcy, yet as recently as six months ago, the Judiciary Report again warned the Obama Administration needed to drop its solar initiatives.

If I knew, shouldn't the government have known as well. You mean to tell me the White House and the FBI, an investigative agency, where the President meets with its director, Robert S. Mueller, on a weekly basis, did not know what was going on at Solyndra.

Obama at Solyndra pretending he understands what they are talking about, not realizing it is rubbish that will go on to cost the taxpayers a boatload of cash. He should have let me go there for him, because the first thing out of my mouth after their long speech would have been, "You're talking pure bull!"

It's amazing - the FBI will illegally pry into the lives of writers such as myself (FBI Reproved For Spying On Journalists), day and night, even inappropriately talking to people I know personally, in bids at unconstitutionally swaying my sites and wanting to have unflattering things about them removed, yet a company like Solyndra that was loaned a half a billion dollars in taxpayer funds, they ignored, allowing them to blow all that money and during a financial crisis.

I'm pretty sure, had you collectively asked the taxpayers, who they would have wanted you to spend taxpayer money investigating, giving them the option:

a.) a wonderful annoying, smart alec blogger with a proven track record record of exclusives, who accurately called the FBI a bunch of corrupt privacy invaders wasting the taxpayers' money (the male ego can be so fragile)

-or-

b) a company (Solyndra) loaned $500,000,000 of taxpayer money that will go bankrupt and not repay it, much like the annoying blogger in option "a" warned would fail WELL BEFORE IT HAPPENED.

I'm sure the American people would have chosen option "b" Solyndra over the irritating, smart alec blogger that didn't do anything to anyone. As usual, the FBI continues to pry into the lives of the wrong people, while the real trouble happens elsewhere.

My point? The taxpayer money you wasted watching writers like me and covering it up by hiding the Freedom of Information Act files that reveal it, you could have spent investigating Solyndra and stopped this waste of $500,000,000 in taxpayer money, before the damage was substantial. Personally, I'm offended.
