Washington's Blog — DHS advisor on mayors' phone call


There has been some controversy about claims that DHS was involved in coordinating the crackdown on Occupy groups. No hard evidence has been forthcoming, but Washington's Blog posted today on a close connection.


Department of Homeland Security Adviser Helped Coordinate Police Crackdowns on Protests in 18 Cities


Favorite quote from the post:

“(We) have to be careful not to allow this movement to get any legitimacy. I’m taking this seriously in that I’m old enough to remember what happened in the 1960′s when the left-wing took to the streets and somehow the media glorified them and it ended up shaping policy. We can’t allow that to happen.”— Congressman Peter King, Head of the House Homeland Security Subcommittee.
