  • 9/11 Commission Recommendations: Joint Committee on Atomic Energy—A Model for Congressional Oversight?
    9/11 Commission Recommendations: Joint Committee on Atomic Energy—A Model for Congressional Oversight? October 19, 2004 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RL32538 9/11 Commission Recommendations: Joint Committee on Atomic Energy Summary In its July 22, 2004, final report, the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States (also known as the “9/11 Commission”) proposed a five-part plan to build unity of effort across the U.S. government in fighting terrorism. The commission’s report includes specific recommendations for “centralizing and strengthening congressional oversight of intelligence and homeland security issues” including a recommendation that Congress consider creating a joint committee for intelligence, using the Joint Atomic Energy Committee as its model. Created in the wake of the explosion of the first atomic weapon in the summer of 1945, the Joint Committee on Atomic Energy (JCAE 1946-1977) has been described as one of the most powerful congressional committees in history. Congress gave the JCAE exclusive jurisdiction over “all bills, resolutions, and other matters” relating to civilian and military aspects of nuclear power, and made it the only permanent joint committee in modern times to have legislative authority. The panel coupled these legislative powers with exclusive access to the information upon which its highly secretive deliberations were based. As overseer of the Atomic Energy Commission, the joint committee was also entitled by statute to be kept “fully and currently informed” of all commission activities and vigorously exercised that statutory right, demanding information and attention from the executive branch in a fashion that arguably has no equivalent today.

  • John D Lane Presidential Politics
    "John D. Lane: Administrative Assistant to Senator Brien McMahon,” Oral History Interviews, October 12 and December 6, 2006, Senate Historical Office, Washington, D.C. PRESIDENTIAL POLITICS Interview #2 December 6, 2006 LANE: On the [General Douglas] MacArthur hearings—those hearings were very important because he was becoming a full-fledged candidate for president and was being backed by much of the right wing of the Republican party, and various influential newspapers. Newspapers in those days were so much more important in politics than they are today. I forgot to tell you that when McMahon used to travel around Connecticut, getting ready to campaign ahead of time, when we would go into a city he would always call on and chat with the political leaders. He would also visit the local newspaper and talk to the editor. Then he would do his thing at whatever the public gathering was, and then leave and go to the next town. But it was a regular practice that he would always call on the editor or publisher of the newspaper. As a result, he received a very good press, and most of the press was Republican in Connecticut, every one of the major papers was, except for the Hartford Times. RITCHIE: But they took him seriously. LANE: Yes, they took him seriously because he talked about serious matters. RITCHIE: His issues weren’t necessarily partisan. Nuclear policy wasn’t a partisan issues, and foreign policy at that point was bipartisan. LANE: To some extent. But Robert Taft was the Republican leader on foreign policy.

  • Linkin Park and Mercedes-AMG Rock the Track 30 July 2016
    24 Hours of Spa Race Press Information Linkin Park and Mercedes-AMG rock the track 30 July 2016 Affalterbach/Spa-Francorchamps. Première at the 24 Hours of Spa Race: For the first time, a Mercedes-AMG GT3 styled by world renown rock band Linkin Park sees action on the racetrack. Three of the band members, Chester Bennington, Dave Farrell and Joe Hahn are big car and AMG fans, and did not want to miss the opportunity to personally present the vehicle designed specifically for the motorsport classic in Spa to the crowd of racing enthusiasts. They even had the privilege of waving the start flag in Spa and frenetically cheered on the Mercedes-AMG driven by Yelmer Buurman (NED), Maro Engel (GER) and Bernd Schneider (GER) from the garage of the BLACK FALCON AMG Team. The Linkin Park GT3 is the second joint project as part of the "Two Stages – One Passion" cooperation between Mercedes-AMG and Linkin Park. The band had already contributed their song "Papercut" to the world première of the new Mercedes-AMG GT R in late June, providing the fitting sound for the international campaign. The design of the Linkin Park GT3 with race number #00 was penned by DJ Joe Hahn, who is also a visual artist and director of many of the band’s iconic videos. The car sports a striking red-black colour scheme on a silver base, with the Linkin Park logo dominantly displayed on the long bonnet, showing the musicians' enthusiasm for motorsport. The racing suits of the Linkin Park GT3 drivers match the design of the car.

Mike states that there are dozens of clips that are usually from their phones, sometimes from videos that are shot that provide these moments. This will begin to make things right.

  • Tom Dodd's Nuremberg
    Tom Dodd’s Nuremberg John Q. Barrett* Copyright © 2007 by John Q. Barrett. All rights reserved. When Justice Jackson was appointed in April 1945 to prosecute top Axis leaders, he inherited a small number of attorneys in the War Department, including the Judge Advocate General’s Department, who had been preparing for prosecutions of war criminals. Jackson added to this staff some trusted former Department of Justice colleagues, a few attorneys in private practice, a leading criminal prosecutor from Brooklyn and, as executive assistant, his twenty-five year old son, William Eldred Jackson. (Bill was concerned about an appearance of nepotism, but his father waved the thought away, writing to Bill’s mother-in-law, “Whose son would you expect me to hire?”) As a staff that was preparing to prosecute the most novel, prominent criminal case in history, it was light on prosecutorial experience. * * * Thomas Joseph Dodd, Jr., born in Norwich, Connecticut in 1907, graduated from Providence College and then Yale Law School. He became a FBI Special Agent and pursued John Dillinger, his gangster-physician “Doc” May and “Baby Face” Nelson, among others. In 1935, Dodd joined the New Deal, becoming Connecticut State Director of the National Youth Administration. In 1938, Tom Dodd was recruited to Washington to become special assistant to U.S. Attorney General Homer S. Cummings, a Connecticut native and Yale man who had mentored Dodd and encouraged his FBI and NYA stints. Over the next seven years, Tom Dodd was nominally a special assistant to five consecutive Attorneys General of the United States: * Professor of Law, St.
