Justice Department orders DEA to halt airport searches because of 'significant issues' with cash seizures

"OIG Investigators found that the DEA paid one airline employee tens of thousands of dollars over the past several years in proceeds from cash seized as a result of their tips. However, the vast majority of those airport seizures aren't accompanied by criminal prosecutions. This has led to years of complaints from civil liberties groups that the DEA is abusing civil asset forfeiture—a practice that allows police to seize cash and other property suspected of being connected to criminal activity such as drug trafficking, even if the owner is never arrested or charged with a crime."

  • This is from ford “if you can’t entirely produce an automobile on your own from scratch without help and all of that computer shit you’d use, then you don’t have any money at all and a union is considered an army, if I ever died then you can bet your ass I’m in that union”

    Drugs don’t even get sold in America or anywhere unless it’s like a 3rd world country (where they traffic a bunch in and none gets sold unless it becomes 3rd world and their own people or the random capitalist communist tribes no one killed start using it and it just goes on, until they seen a windows c code monitor on and then one drive documents was born lol, Usually prostitutes and singers/dancers used drugs, or people they can’t entirely enslave from scratch. And most of that money is fake counterfeit bills or they robbed a bank or anyone who was rich or poor and they stole durable goods and they pretend they sold drugs and sex trafficking and porn goes on with beer and restaurants, is it just me or is that all this looks like with different skin colored groups), like in saints row, it’s kind of developed but kind of not. We lived in saints row in 2003 when it started. Before that everything was legal and like religion or forced consumption by dictators or democracy.

    This country is actually filled with extremely violent parasites. Especially when they can no longer attach. They’re usually around large amounts of tungsten because they were detached there by it, and we need some of it, so sell it then. We got viruses and bacteria everywhere like they were people living here.
