For Lack of a Better Term: "Political Prisoners" The United States does engage in, for lack of a better term, taking "political prisoners." These are people who: Were engaged in covert activities for the CIA and other covert agencies and were engaged in corrupt or criminal activities. To silence them, or discredit them, criminal charges were fabricated to bring about their imprisonment. People who, in their official government duties, discovered corruption of management or political figures and sought to , or were about to, report the offenses. The public doesn't hear about them, as every check and balance, and especially members of Congress, covers up for these offenses. Next in line would be media people, many of whom have been receiving secret payments for their "services." These people are described in the various books written by former government agents. Example of Political Prisoners Described in the Books Former FBI Special Agent Richard Taus, a Lt. Col. in National Guard, highly decorated Vietnam Helicopter Pilot. Taus worked under FBI Supervisory Agent Lindley DeVecchio in the New York office, and found himself being pulled off investigations that (a) focused on criminal activities of the CIA, including a part of Oliver North's Enterprise; the secret funding and arming of Iraq during the Reagan-Bush administrations, and other crimes. When FBI supervisors, including DeVecchio repeatedly blocked reporting of these criminal activities, Taus reported the matters to several members of Congresswho, as usual, covered up for the matters. Immediately thereafter FBI officials fabricated charges against Taus and he was arrested. State prosecutors then took over, charged him with other offenses, and Taus was sentenced to 80 years in prison. His imprisonment protected the corrupt activities of White House officials and the CIA. Also, murders perpetrated by the New York Mafia. Some years later, in 2004, that same FBI Supervisory Agent Lindley DeVecchio was charged with multiple murders by a Brooklyn district attorney. Taus's story is described in two books: FBI, CIA, the Mob, and Treachery; and Defrauding America. Rodney Stich, former federal inspector-investigator for the FAA, with years of continuous contacts with many former CIA and other deep-cover operatives, had been exposing corruption in government for years, with a continuing series of retaliatory acts taken against him to silence him. When he sought to report corrupt activities related to a series of fatal airline crashes, several occurring in his area of immediate federal air safety responsibilities, he suffered a series of retaliatory actions. He left government, and then when he sought to report not only the deep-seated arrogance and corruption in the government's aviation safety offices, but criminal activities that he discovered from the many other government agents who provided him with insider information.
