Another big moment: #Tesla appears to have engaged in deceptive practices with respect to exaggerating vehicle range & then deceptively dismissed customer complaints. Seems like a pattern. https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/tesla-batteries-range/

My two cents: Need C-suite level Office of #ChiefEthicist — all companies, all sectors (details TBD). Independent, like #OIG / #InspectorGeneral in USG agencies. Not beholden to CEO. Locus of investigations, etc.

Well Dems…
It’s about FFING time!
Rep. Bennie Thompson’s a good Rep. & a good man.
But he could use some help in getting #oig #Cuffari out of govrt work!

“Your apparent violations of Fed criminal laws & your mishandling of key investigations w/in DHS have undermined any confidence in your ability to carry out your duties”

“We must restore credibility to the OIG in order to have independent #oversight & #accountability w/in DHS. Your resignation is the necessary 1st step.”

Federal Agencies Are Still Using Our Phones as Tracking Beacons
The #OIG report referred to the use of what is commonly called #stingray technology—devices that simulate #cellphonetowers and trick #phones within range into connecting and revealing their location.

Hello #BaltimoreCounty and #Baltimore #Maryland folks, in an hour I'm going to live toot the open meeting of the Baltimore County :baltco: Blue Ribbon Commission on #Ethics and #Accountability which is studying Baltimore County’s existing ethics laws and laws concerning the Office of #InspectorGeneral or #OIG. This is a thing I used to do on Twitter so it will be an interesting experiment here. It'll all have a CW and be threaded unlisted except for the first post. https://www.baltimorecountymd.gov/boards-commissions/executive/blue-ribbon-commission-ethics

The US Census Bureau buried this story on a Friday afternoon.

They disputed an #OIG report that said a red team was able to gain access to a #Census Bureau domain administrator account and was able to obtain personally identifiable information of employees like #SSN

As elections wind down this evening, #BaltimoreCounty journalist David Plymyer is fighting to keep the oversight of the Office of #InspectorGeneral open to public review.

Sound recursive? It's only scratching the surface of politics around the office of #OIG in the city and county.

He asks: "Why wouldn't a Blue Ribbon Commission on Ethics & Accountability err on side of [openness] and transparency - which are essential to accountability?"
