“John Adams Project” Lawyer Confronted by “The O’Reilly Factor” Producer
Factor Producer Dan Bank confronting “John Adams Project” lawyer Nina Ginsberg. O’Reilly explains “the John Adams Project is secretly photographing CIA agents and showing the pictures to terror suspects at Guantanamo Bay.”
Ginsberg said “CIA agents put a lot of people in danger, they put this country in danger, they put American Soldiers in danger.” After trying to grab the microphone away from Bank’s hands she said “You are making me feel threatened, get out of my face!”
Detainees Shown CIA Officers’ Photos
The Justice Department recently questioned military defense attorneys at Guantanamo Bay about whether photographs of CIA personnel, including covert officers, were unlawfully provided to detainees charged with organizing the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, according to sources familiar with the investigation.
Investigators are looking into allegations that laws protecting classified information were breached when three lawyers showed their clients the photographs, the sources said.
The photos were taken by researchers hired by the John Adams Project, a joint effort of the American Civil Liberties Union and the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, to support military counsel at Guantanamo Bay, according to the sources, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the inquiry. It was unclear whether the Justice Department is also examining those organizations.
The Washington Post could not determine how many and which CIA personnel were photographed, which photographs were shown to detainees, or when.
Tracking international CIA-chartered flights, researchers have identified hotels in Europe where CIA personnel or contractors stayed. In some cases, through hotel phone records, they have been able to identify agency employees who jeopardized their cover by dialing numbers in the United States. Working from these lists, some of which include up to 45 names, researchers photographed agency workers and obtained other photos from public records, the sources said.
Ginsberg will always find a way to endear themselves to the enemies of this nation because they have something in common with them. A hatred for the United States and what it stands for will be enough to guarantee their safety while the rest of us are threatened.

ACLU caught exposing CIA agents to terrorists
Macon County Conservative Examiner

August 27, 2009
The Justice Department is investigating the ACLU for knowingly taking pictures of covert CIA agents at Gitmo and handing them over to known al Qaida operatives.
The ACLU’s explanation is that the terrorists involved–ones who played a direct role in planning 9/11–will need the names of the U.S. officials who interrogated them in order to cry foul at trial. Never mind the fact that there is already a secure, legal process for identifying covert agents behind closed doors in a way that doesn’t jeopardize national defense.
And of course, Obama hasn’t yet finished utterly bastardizing the Bill of Rights to blatantly misapply it to foreign terrorists, so these absurd, invented trials still don’t even exist, hence none of this even makes sense. As always, the left’s half-witted excuses for why it needs to be aiding our enemies and compromising national defense this week completely falls apart under even a moment of serious scrutiny.
Whether it be snatching defeat from the jaws of victory in Vietnam, trashing and undermining the war in Afghanistan until the moment it could be used to undermine the next war Democrats voted for in Iraq, or needlessly exposing the inner-workings of highly classified, completely non-controversial anti-terror programs…liberals always say and do whatever allows them to oppose national defense at the moment.
As the ACLU’s founder, Roger Baldwin, put it:
“I am for socialism, disarmament, and, ultimately, for abolishing the state itself… I seek the social ownership of property, the abolition of the propertied class, and the sole control of those who produce wealth. Communism is the goal.”
Hating America is nothing new for this trash woman Nin Ginsberg, nope.
Regan convicted of attempted espionage for Iraq, China
CNN.Com Law Center
February 20, 2003
ALEXANDRIA, Virginia (CNN) — A retired Air Force master sergeant was convicted Thursday of offering to sell military secrets to Iraq and China, and jurors are now deciding whether to proceed to a death penalty phase of the trial.
After three days of deliberations, Brian Regan, 40, was found guilty of two counts of attempted espionage, related to attempts to sell information to Iraq and China, and one count of gathering national defense information. He was acquitted of attempting to provide U.S. secrets to Libya.
Jurors returned to deliberate whether the documents Regan attempted to sell to Iraq meet the criteria for the death penalty set out under federal law. If they answer ‘yes’ to that question, the trial will enter a penalty phase, with additional testimony, to determine his sentence.
The charges related to China did not carry death sentence.
Regan’s trial marks the first time in nearly 50 years that a defendant in an espionage case is facing the death penalty. The last accused spies to be executed were Ethel and Julius Rosenberg, who went to the electric chair after being convicted in 1953 of stealing U.S. atomic secrets for the Soviet Union.
To proceed to a death penalty phase, jurors will have to find that the information Regan attempted to sell to Iraq involved nuclear weaponry, military satellites, early warning systems, means of defense or retaliation against large-scale attack, war plans, communications intelligence, cryptographic information “or any other major weapons system or major element of defense strategy.”
Paul McNulty, the U.S. attorney for the eastern district of Virginia, hailed the verdict, saying it came “at an important moment in American history when our need to safeguard military secrets has never been more critical.”
“This conviction demonstrates that traitors can and will be held accountable,” McNulty said in a statement.
Prosecutors said Regan, a father of four who was arrested in August 2001, offered to sell secrets from the National Reconnaissance Office, which analyzes information from U.S. spy satellites, to Iraq, China and Libya for $13 million. He had run up $116,000 in credit card debt, according to prosecutors.
Investigators found letters from Regan to Iraqi President Saddam Hussein and Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi on his home computer, and Regan was arrested with a notebook containing encrypted codes describing the location of a missile launcher in the northern no-fly zone of Iraq and another location in China, prosecutors said.
But Regan’s attorney, Nina Ginsberg, said he was acting out a fantasy and never intended to hurt the United States. She said a real spy would not have sought so much money for so little information and pointed out that investigators never found 800 pages of CIA documents that his letters claimed that he had.

Wild Thing’s comment………
Too bad some of those lawyer jokes can’t come true. This kind of lawyer and the others that are doing this should be disbarred and thrown in jail for putting lives of Americans in danger. Americans doing their jobs…..our CIA!
This would not be happening if the Justice Department was run by a able patriot instead of Eric holder.
How pathetic the ACLU and their lawyers are as human beings. Disgusting and their hate for America and the victims on 9-11 just shows even more when they do something like this.
This post is filed in the sidebar under Traitors To America.
What’s really too bad is that some of these lawyers and other scum bags doing this haven’t started disappearing.
I used to total up the billable hours for one day for a lawyer I worked for, and it was not uncommon for him to bill out 27 hours in one work day. Hint: If you have a simple question, ask his assistant (secretary). If you talk to him for 10 seconds, he bills you 15 minutes. If you write him a letter and he reads it, it’s 15 min. to 30 min. just to READ the letter. They aren’t all bad, just have to say that. I worked for a large firm in Missouri, and they were not that way.
ACLU and NAACP felines would look great in a burka if THEY get their caliphate ways, eh?
The ACLU and like organizations have no trouble finding leftist lawyers. Probably because there are so many of them. In this case these attorneys are aid and abetting traitors and committing treason themselves. Under obama and Holden nothing will be done about it.
These people are traitors and should be strung up on meathooks and piano wire and treated like the scum that they are.
In fact they are as much of a threat to National Security as obama is.
Traitors!
BobF., yes it really is.
Eden, wow, thank you for the information.
Darth, LOL yesss they would.
See how they would like living under
the Shira law.
Tom, your right. The article said they
are looking into it, which means
nothing will happen.
Mark, I would be all for that being
done to them.
I agree with this too…
” they are as much of a threat to National Security as obama is”
Odin, HUGE DITTO.
