Ex-CIA Asset, Susan Lindauer, Can Now Speak… 10 years after 9/11 (published 2011)
For some reason I never saw this. There are a few reasons for that, since I was pretty much informed and aware of most things regarding 9/11 at that time. This was shortly before what I call the “Fabled 10-Year Anniversary of 9/11”.
Susan Lindauer is an American antiwar activist and former U.S. Congressional staffer who was charged with “acting as an unregistered agent of a foreign government” and violating U.S. financial sanctions during the run-up to the 2003 invasion of Iraq. She was incarcerated in 2005 and released the next year after two judges ruled her mentally unfit to stand trial. The government dropped the prosecution in 2009. In 2010, Lindauer published a book about her experiences, “Extreme Prejudice: The Terrifying Story of the Patriot Act and the Cover-Ups of 9/11 and Iraq“. Since 2011 Lindauer has appeared frequently on television and in print as a U.S. government critic.
She was the 2nd American to be “arrested” and held under indictment for 5 years and held for 1 year using the powers of the Patriot Act, because they didn’t like what she was saying and who she was talking to. She finally got through all that, was found innocent (exonerated) of whatever it was they were claiming she did (which was never clear), and she wrote a book and began speaking publicly.
Sometimes some people do get justice, but it is not often enough, and too-often too rare.

The internet has nominated the Twitter employee who shut down trump’s account for a Nobel Peace Prize. Others suggested he get a Knighthood, and be invited to Thanksgiving dinner.
Someone at Twitter clearly had enough of Donald Trump’s rants and decided to (briefly) end his social media reign.
A former Twitter customer support worker deactivated the US president’s choice of mouthpiece on his last day of work for 11 whole minutes – that’s years in internet years.
It doesn’t get any better than this. I’d buy him a drink. He should never have to buy his own drinks again.
Kudos. Thank you.
