B Before dawn on March 10, 2014, a group of roughly thirty migrants awoke in Tijuana, Mexico, packed their belongings, and ate one final meal before attempting to cross into the United States. Some were Mexican nationals who had previously been deported. Others were Central American women and children hoping to reunite with family members who had migrated north years earlier. There was nothing unusual about their intentions. For decades, foreign nationals with similar hopes had arrived at Mexican border cities to prepare for the journey into the United States. What distinguished this group was not why they wanted to cross, but how they intended to do it

The Middle East is on fire, the planet on the verge of world war, the Homeland Security director just ousted. It'd hard to pay attention to anything else. Still, if you want to know why news that the FBI has begun to turn over long-concealed "prohibited access" files to Congress might matter, just ask Seymour Hersh.

These misdeeds were part of a trove of dirty secrets in the CIA's past that came to be known as the agency's "Family Jewels." Some sources Racket spoke with this week recalled the case in conjunction with news about the discovery of a cache of secret files at the FBI.
