The problem is the current DOJ oversight the INDEPENDENT REVIEW BOARD (IRB) has been pressuring Hoffa not to file the civil RICO lawsuit to recover the monies lost in the Carey DNC cash-swap/embezzlements enumerated in the Hamilton trial.

DOJ is the enforcment arm of this labor shakedown setting up oversight with extraordinary unilateral extrajudicial power to its "Watchdogs"
The problem is no one is watching the "watchdogs"
IRB is currently working on a
release (likely in March-April) of all the good work they have done (for
nearly $100 million) to counter criticism of DOJ's labor oversight in other
unions, and show their 'independence' and how the 'Edelstein Model' (Consent
Order/Decree US v. IBT) is superior and above reproach
****USDJ David N. Edelstein SDNY - 96 year old Truman appointee 1951 -
hasn't been to his courtroom in Manhattan in almost 2 years - got the IBM anti-trust case in
1952 - it was mandamoused by IBM just two years ago - he cost IBM over $1
million per year in record storage alone - Most mandamoused - most reversed
Jurist in the history of the 2nd Circuit
These people, who have taken over $87Million dollars as Clinton/Reno DOJ
"watchdogs" have done NOTHING 17 months after the video tapes of the
beatings of Clinton protesters Don & Teri Adams were shown repeatedly on national television and have
been the subject of over half a dozen editorials in WSJ. alone.
In fact they have expressed their great displeasure and tried to impede
Hoffa from taking over the Philly local which had stockpiled an arms cash to
use on the Republican National Convention delegates this summer - the same
local who beat Don & Teri Adams.

at all cost.
Once, when asked by a reporter if he believed he could conduct an
independent investigation of the BNL/CIA matter, Webster's Teamster IRB mate
Lacey responded, "I think 'independence' is best defined as a subjective

His words, his deeds his actions - his testimony before Congress - his

the Federal Bureau of Investigations (Jimmy Carter's guy) from 1978-87 (he ran Jackie Presser &
Carey), and Judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals from 1973-78.
Now McCloy, that's an interesting name. As in John J. McCloy.

undersecretary of War under Stimson [FDR], Member of the Warren Commission

Communist spy. To them the question was is he a card carrying communist, or
just a communist sympathizer?

Older than dirt and, more prevalent in the beltway these days, is the
insider's insider William Webster.
Justice for hire, the Honorable William Webster never met a Bench, Board of
Directors, panel or commission he didn't like to sit upon, until Ken Starr
asked him to oversee a probe into alleged payments to key Whitewater witness
David Hale just about two years ago.
Such pious concerns about conflict have never been "The Judge's" hallmark.
For example, he currently sits on the boards of the anti-union Pinkerton
Security Agency and Anheuser Busch -- whose workers are members of the
Teamsters Union -- while sitting on the Teamsters 'Independent' Review Board
(IRB) -- with Fred Lacey former judge in the U.S. Foreign Intelligence
Surveillance Court, who in the early '90's "investigated"/cleaned up Webster
's CIA's role in diverting money to Saddam Hussein's military machine
(BNL/Iraqgate).
Perhaps its just pure serendipity, but the creator of the tactical squad
which went hunting on Ruby Ridge has made a career of just 'Being There' and
the press has allowed him to drift through one disaster after another with
impunity.
Here now, in less than perfect chronological order, for your contribution
and comment are some of William Webster's greatest hits:

election and the 'Independent' Review Board (IRB) ~ Webster - Lacey -

here?
It's all connected:
Kickback Convicts for Clinton
November 30, 1999 The Washington Times Editorial Board
In 1996 the Teamsters Union did something a little unusual for an
organization that was nearly bankrupt - it gave away more than $1 million.
The money went not to the organization's dues-paying members but to
liberal activist groups, the Democratic Party and, it turned out, the
re-election campaign of former Teamsters President Ron Carey.
In return for the contributions, you see, the lucky recipients were
supposed to return the favor by making contributions to the Carey campaign.
Several did.
The idea was to circumvent federal labor laws that bar unions from
spending funds on individual candidates in union elections. Earlier this
month a federal district court jury in New York convicted the Teamsters'
former political director, William Hamilton, of embezzlement and fraud for
his part in the kickback scheme. The question now is how many others were
involved in it.
On Monday, this newspaper's Jerry Seper reported that law-enforcement
officials are pressing U.S. Attorney Mary Jo White to seek indictments
against high-ranking union and political officials, including some close to
President Clinton.
Possible targets include former Teamsters head Ron Carey, AFL-CIO
official Richard Trumka, former White House deputy Chief of Staff
Harold Ickes and top Clinton fund-raiser Terry McAuliffe.
Mr. McAuliffe, readers may recall, was the man who just happened to have
$1.35 million on hand when President and Mrs. Clinton initially came up a
little short on the down payment for their new house in Chappaqua, N.Y. In
the ensuing uproar over his part in the purchase, Mr. McAuliffe had to
withdraw his generous assistance.
Mr. McAuliffe is also the man identified in the trial of William
Hamilton who tried to get the Democratic Party in on the Teamsters kickback
scheme.
Former Carey fund-raiser Martin Davis, who had already pleaded guilty for
his own part in the scheme, testified that he told Mr. McAuliffe the union
could be very good to the Democrats if they could find someone to contribute
to the Carey campaign. Mr. McAuliffe appears to have gotten the message.
Former Democratic National Committee (DNC) finance director
Richard Sullivan testified that the Clinton fund-raiser urged the party
to find a big donor for the Carey campaign.
"Terry would generally say, `By the way, I still think we can get a large
amount of contributions from the Teamsters if you can help find the donor,"
Mr. Sullivan testified.
The Clinton-Gore campaign subsequently sent over a list of state
Democratic parties to which the Teamsters should contribute, and the union
actually made as much as $236,000 in donations as requested, for which Mr.
McAuliffe received credit from the DNC. The deal collapsed and the Teamsters
contributions ended when Democrats were unable to find a big donor for the
Carey campaign.
It wasn't for lack of trying.
The DNC found a woman willing to give $100,000 to Mr. Carey, but,
alas, she was foreign, and U.S. law prohibited her from making the donation.
McAuliffe attorney Richard Ben-Veniste denies any wrongdoing on
his client's part, saying that he never encouraged anyone to make such a
deal, nor did the fund-raiser do so himself.
Evidently Mr. McAuliffe's old friends at the DNC and the Teamsters don't
agree.
If it takes a court case to resolve the differences here, U.S. Attorney
White should be ready to pursue it.

Gore Fundraisers, Union Cronies McAuliffe, McEntee and Trumka Implicated;
Nicholson: 'So Much for 'No Legal Violations'
WASHINGTON, Jan. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- On the same day that Al Gore's
toughest
union lieutenants, Richard Trumka and Gerald McEntee, are organizing a mass
rally following Gore's debate in Iowa with Bill Bradley, Republican National
Committee Chairman Jim Nicholson announced today that he has put the entire
3,000-page transcript of the federal trial of ex-Teamsters Political
Director William Hamilton on the "Spotlight Section" of the RNC's website,
http://www.rnc.org .
The testimony implicates both Trumka and McEntee -- as
well as Gore fundraiser Terry McAuliffe -- as participants in an illegal
campaign money-laundering scheme during the 1996 election cycle.
"With Al Gore claiming there were 'no legal violations' in the 1996
election
cycle, Americans can now judge for themselves whether he's telling the
truth -- or whether this is another case of the Vice President's imagination
getting away with him," Nicholson said.
"This sworn testimony convicted Ron Carey's number-two man at the
Teamsters
of 6 counts of conspiracy, fraud, embezzlement and perjury, and it
implicates Al Gore's principal fundraiser, Terry McAuliffe, and his toughest
union lieutenants, Richard Trumka and Gerald McEntee."
Hamilton, who was Teamsters' Political Director under disgraced
former-President Ron Carey, faces up to 30 years in prison, plus fines of $1
million. His sentencing is scheduled for February 29, 2000.
Sworn
testimony and exhibits in the trial tell the story of how McAuliffe, Trumka
and McEntee were among those who helped carry out the illegal contribution
swap schemes.
The transcript of the testimony, Nicholson said, "will be fully
searchable,
allowing online users to quickly and conveniently access portions of the
transcript by witness, word or date the testimony occurred."
Nicholson said that the RNC will permit other groups and web pages to
link
directly to the testimony, "so that this incredible story gets the attention
it deserves -- attention the elite media has denied it."

Laboring Against
America
by Michael
Moroney:
Sen. John McClellan called it "crime without punishment." Thirty years
later, Reagan's Organized Crime Commission wanted Justice to use civil
racketeering laws to clean up the national Teamsters unions. George Bush's
Justice Department launched the case. But the Clinton administration sees
anti-labor rackets laws as a political profit center, much like selling the
nation's nuclear secrets.
In 1978 wannabe Stephen Brill, Clinton's ultimate supporter, wrote
a book
that painted Teamster Ron Carey as a family man with an extremely
modest
income. Brill did not mention that Carey 's Queens local union was
controlled by the mob. Boosted by Brill and a far-left reputed rank-and-file
reform group, Carey emerged in 1992 as a national Teamsters reform leader.
By 1993, Carey 's secret life had caught up with him. Stories in The
New
York Times, TIME magazine and Business Week began to
unravel Carey's facade
of reform. He tried to end court supervision over the union; appointed a mob
associate to run a corrupt airfreight local in New York; the former boss of
New York 's Lucchese crime family identified him as a mob figure; and in
early 1994 a treasure trove of real estate Carey owned with his close friend
and female business partner in the Florida Keys was revealed.
With the press hounds on his heels, Carey arranged to meet union lawyer
Harold
Ickes, then Bill Clinton's New York campaign manager. Millions of
Teamsters
PAC money and support started flowing to Clinton. Carey 's new allies on
the left and the Clinton Justice Department soon rallied to his defense.
Expecting to get away with it, Carey 's minions then embezzled approximately
$885,000 of union funds to get him re-elected, and as Carey was about to
fall on corruption charges, he pulled off the famous UPS strike-the ultimate
Wag the Dog trick.
Now that he has been expelled from the union, and several of his campaign
aides pled guilty, Carey 's friends in the AFL-CIO, AFSCME and the
Service
Employees International Union (SEIU) who escaped accountability
continue to
funnel union money to the Democratic Party.
Recently obtained documents shed more light on the steps taken by the
Carey
regime to protect their ersatz champion and to deflect scrutiny while the
AFL-CIO pumped money into the Democratic Party.
Carey 's left-wing staff and supporters defined every revelation about
his
past as an activity of James P. Hoffa, and particularly two
characters in
Hoffa 's sphere who had previously been associated with Lyndon La Rouche.
This was their "vast right -wing
conspiracy" ploy.
Teamsters' lawyer Judy Scott brought in Scott Armstrong as
an investigative
consultant. Armstrong spoke to far-left lawyer Michael Tigar and
Anthony
Podesta (brother of now White House Chief of Staff John Podesta),
who then
went to
Charles Ruff. Ruff shielded Carey from government investigators. He
presented documents to favorably explain Carey 's finances - although Ruff's
own associates observed that there were "glaring soft spots" and that it was
unlikely that the explanations, insufficient for Business Week, would
survive government scrutiny. (Documents show that both Carey and his girl
friend would not disclose records from their joint bank accounts and that
they "relied heavily on undocumented representations.") Nevertheless, Ruff'
s spin worked with politically malleable investigators.
In the "it's a small world category", it's interesting to note that,
using
union funds, Ruff hired Clinton Arkansas "bimbo eruptions" investigator
Jack
Palladino to investigate internal union corruption in Chicago. Carey's
people also investigated
Hoffa and his supporters, including monitoring their garbage and gathering
evidence on ex-wives and children.
Millions of Teamsters' dollars were spent to protect Carey. Close to a
million dollars of Teamsters' funds were embezzled to get him re-elected
before the truth finished him. Ruff became White House counsel and Ickes
now
runs Hillary Clinton's New York Senate campaign. And millions from the
labor
movement still flow into the Democratic Party.
This is what Sen. McClellan meant by crime without punishment.
As a former labor rackets investigator with the departments of Justice
and
Labor, Michael Moroney is credited with exposing Ron Carey 's organized
crime association and corrupt background. From 1992 through 1994, Moroney
served as a court appointed deputy trustee of the Teamsters' airfreight
local at New York's Kennedy and Newark airports.

Here's another example of the Clinton Carrot & Stick:
Hefty Union Contribution Came Just Before Mrs. Clinton
Ads
WASHINGTON (AP) A union headed by one of Hillary Rodham Clinton's top
backers made a hefty contribution to the Democratic Senatorial Campaign
Committee just before the committee began paying for a television ad
boosting the first lady in upstate New York, records showed Tuesday.
Local 1199's Political Action Fund contributed $500,000 to the DSCC on
Oct. 19, according to Federal Election Commission records.
The TV ad promoting Mrs. Clinton began running in New York three weeks
later. The spot was funded almost entirely by about $250,000 the DSCC
provided to the state Democratic Party, which arranged for the advertising,
officials said.
Republicans have been highly critical of Mrs. Clinton for allowing the
unlimited ``soft-money contributions'' to be used on the advertising.
Local 1199's president is Dennis Rivera, one of the highest profile labor
leaders in the state and a major backer of Mrs. Clinton's expected Senate
run. She is expected to face New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani in the
race.
The New York City-based Local 1199 represents 200,000 blue-collar
hospital workers. Already one of the most powerful unions in the state,
Local 1199 is seeking to expand into upstate New York.
Officials with the DSCC and Local 1199 both denied the ad and the
donation were connected.
``There's no connection whatsoever except in the very indirect sense that
Local 1199 is interested in electing Democrats to the United States
Senate,'' DSCC Political Director Jim Jordan said Tuesday.
Jennifer Cunningham, a spokeswoman for Local 1199, said the contribution
was made after a conversation union officials had over the summer with
Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle and Sen. Charles Schumer, a New York
Democrat. A fund-raiser was held in early October for the DSCC in New York
City which President Clinton attended.
The DSCC-financed ad features the first lady talking with upstate New
Yorkers and shaking hands. An announcer ends by saying:
``Call Hillary. Tell her to keep fighting for children, for families, for
our future.'' The telephone number for the New York state Democratic Party
then appears on screen.
The ad has been running for about three weeks across upstate New York, an
answer to ads being run and paid for by Giuliani's campaign that are also
running in upstate New York.
While the Clinton camp has admitted to coordination with the Democrats
over the pro-Hillary Clinton ad, aides to the first lady insist everything
they did was legal. Giuliani has said the FEC should investigate the
financing and coordination.
There is no limit on so-called soft money contributions that can be made
to fund issue-oriented ads that do not specifically advocate voting for a
candidate. Critics of the soft money-funded issue ads say they allow
candidates to skirt campaign contribution limits. The soft money issue ads
became popular during the 1996 presidential campaign between Bill Clinton
and Bob Dole.
The New York ads were the DSCC's first for the 2000 election cycle.
A phone call placed to Mrs. Clinton's campaign was not immediately
returned Tuesday.
Local 1199 has been quite visible lately. They have joined in recent
weeks with the Greater New York Hospital Association in an ad campaigns
calling for New York to use money from the multibillion dollar settlement
with tobacco companies to help more lower-income New Yorkers afford health
insurance. The two groups also launched another ad campaign pushing state
officials to keep the hospital subsidies in place in the state's Health Care
Reform Act set to expire at the end of December.
Local 1199 has also been pushing the Clinton administration and Congress
to restore money to New York hospitals that was cut under the 1997 Balanced
Budget Act.
