The chief counsel to the committee that investigated abuses of power by President Richard Nixon in the 1970s tells [Raw Story] he’d like to see a similar inquiry into clandestine intelligence operations under President George W. Bush.

Frederick A.O. Schwarz, who presently works as Senior Counsel at the New York University School of Law’s Brennan Center for Social Justice, served as chief counsel to the Church Committee from 1975-1976. The committee drew its name from Senator Frank Church, who led the massive probe into abuses of power by U[.]S[.] intelligence agencies.

Schwarz [...] strongly supports a sweeping congressional investigation. He addresses this legal controversy in a forthcoming book, Unchecked and Unbalanced: Presidential Power in a Time of Terror, which he co-authored.

F.A.O. Schwarz, the toy magnate? Turns out that this lawyer is his great-grandson.

Thanks, rook. I was wondering that very thing.

Figured this story was a fake because of the F.A.O. Schwartz deal.

Figured this story was a fake because of the F.A.O. Schwartz deal.

Then, it would have been an obvious fake.
