Starting Monday I will be raising funds for Planned Parenthood:)

Professional um, erm..Ass...um Rep Peter King (R-NY) chair of the US House Committee on Homeland Security, yesterday reintroduced legislation that would extend the definition of espionage to include publishing the names of sources who collaborate with the US military or intelligence services.

King had proposed similar legislation in 2010. Last week three members of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security, led by chairman Joe Lieberman (I-CT), reintroduced a similar bill, known as the Shield Act.

Congrats to the people of Egypt who fought not only their own government, but ours and others.

11:20 Mubarak quits, and Suleiman bypassed. Not to make too much of it but: WikiLeaks cables helped fuel Tunisia revolt, which in turn helped fuel Egypt revolution (aided a bit as well by cables on Mubarak, Suleiman, police, torture). Will leave the rest to others.

A disturbing threat against one of our own

We take threats against our own very seriously.

Since we are all moving to the great DK4 in the sky, I thought I would do a nice Round-up of what we have learned here in the 58 previous Wikileaks diaries that started Dec 7, 2010........

A must watch video. No really, you must watch it.

Details on the strange death of a former Chilean president

The death of former Chilean President Eduardo Frei Montalva is that country's equivalent of the John F. Kennedy assassaination: a national mystery around which so much speculation circulates that no truth will probably ever be known. On a January day in 1982, Frei checked into the hospital in the capital, Santiago, for what should have been a routine operation. Hours later, he was dead. His family and supporters believe he was poisoned. A December 2009 cable released by WikiLeaks on Tuesday offers odd details about what happened next -- including an in-hospital autopsy -- that will only further stoke the conspiracy theories.
