First Guantanamo detainees face arraignments in new military process
Four detainees held at Guantanamo Bay will be arraigned in preliminary hearings as the first step toward military commissions. The men, including Salim Hamdan and David Hicks, face conspiracy to commit war crimes charges with potential life sentences. Critics warn of fairness flaws and admissibility issues tied to interrogations and attorney access. Trials may take months to begin.

Roberts proposes dismantling CIA into separate agencies
Roberts unveiled a plan to reorganize the CIA into three new separate agencies, removing three major directorates from the Pentagon. He said the CIA is not abolished but reordered, while White House officials say they will review details and maintain all options. Critics call the proposal unworkable and potentially harmful to national security. The plan also shifts NSA and NGA from the Pentagon to direct control under a new collection director, with DIA intelligence units reorganized under the same framework.

FBI interview probes spark criticism over protest warnings
The Justice Department in an April memo backed two FBI bulletins warning law enforcement about antiwar protests in Washington San Francisco and Miami. Officials say interviews of protesters in Colorado Kansas Missouri aimed to prevent violence during major conventions while stressing First Amendment rights. Critics cite past Philadelphia events where protesters faced charges as examples of overreach. Local reactions describe visits to Lawrence and Topeka as intrusive but officials insist the goal was lawful, peaceful protest support.
