EPA official who faked CIA ties takes the Fifth

The former senior EPA adviser who stole $900,000 from taxpayers while posing as a CIA agent pleaded the Fifth on Tuesday morning — shortly before House members expressed outrage upon learning that he’s still due to get his government pension. John C. Beale invoked his right not to incriminate himself when facing questioning from the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, just four days after he pleaded guilty to charges that could bring him three years in prison.“Mr. Beale, do you have a statement?” panel Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) asked during the hearing. “Thank you, Mr. Chairman. No I do not,” Beale

Hey! It happened in France about 150 years ago so it could happen here. I guess that is why they want our guns NOW before we get a chance. Kathleen Selibus is correct; we are the enemy. They know it and are acting accordingly. We just haven’t accepted it yet. We need to and need to start acting accordingly.

I'm surprised this isn't getting more coverage(or maybe I'm not at that...considering the budget B.S. going on currently...MSM O'buttkissers wouldn't want to touch this gov. clusterfluck with a ten foot pole).

Right now watching the CSPAN 3 1/2 hr. recording of the hearing today online, it's like watching the movie "True Lies" what this assclown was able to get away with, and(more importantly)for how long he got away with it. There are people laughing all around during witness statements...as the incompetence(or corruption)is so entrenched there's nothing seemingly you can do at this point...but laugh at it.

This IS our gov...."working hard for the American pee-pole"...it has become nothing but a mafia run cesspool...with wartime consigliarie ~~lawyers~~ shysters protecting every scam from the puppet masters, as well as their puppets...

...while at the same time preoccupying the sheeples attention span with sports, "entertainment" and other(propaganda)nonsense sedatives.

We are in deep kimchi folks.

Thanks Nachum.
