At the FBI office, when the CTU servers were loaded onto the FBI servers, when they show a close up of one of the computer monitors with the familiar CTU logo, note that the eagle is facing the arrows to its left side. A nod that they are at war. The eagle is usually facing right in times of peace.
Jack: (yelling at Janis) Look, if you think your need to complain is more important than the lives of the people that are counting on us, go whine somewhere else!
Janis: ...so if you're going to be doing anything grossly illegal-
Jack:(cutting Janis off) We'll make sure to notify you so you can leave the building.
Jack: My name is Jack Bauer. And right now, I'm the only chance your wife and children have to stay alive.
Hodges: Explain that to me.
Jack: The people that wanted you
dead don't know you survived. Tell us who they are, and we'll keep it that way. The president has agreed to provide you with a death certificate and witness protection in exchange for actionable information.
Olivia: I can't watch this anymore.
Jack: If you refuse, it'll be released to the press that you are alive and in our custody and that you're cooperating. We'll
let your friends take care of the rest.
Hodges: My family is innocent. The president would never allow that to happen. She doesn't have the stomach for it.
Jack: You might be right about that. But make no mistake about it, sir. I do. Trust me. Do your family a favor.
Olivia: It's a get-out-of-jail-free card for Jonas Hodges, the bastard responsible for my brother's death, and so many others.
This is an allusion to the card from the board game Monopoly. As the card implies, the player is let out of jail for free.
