UNDERNEWS Progressive Review MICHAEL RUPPERT, FROM THE WILDERNESS - I am working on a two-part series focusing on two ongoing federal grand juries that reveal deep conflicts of interest with John Ashcroft and the Vice President's energy task force. The President is refusing to release information to the public - in spite of a court order - that may reveal criminal activity by both men. Apparently, preventing me from finishing the research for these stories has become a high priority. Sometime between Monday, March 18 and Wednesday March 21 our locked, outside storage area was burglarized. Business records, a computer and other equipment were taken. The effect on our operations has been negligible. But over the last few weeks our website has been attacked by sophisticated hackers on a regular basis. We have been down twice, and on one occasion the hackers took down our entire network, wiping out several hundred sites just to get to us.
