RE: Troubling matter of insufferable pick to head the Securities Exchange Commission

Dear Mr. President;

The truth needs no disguise
-------- your Justice Department has an intrinsic rotten apple problem
---------------- and the Goldman Sachs crony pick to be head of the S.E.C. will make it far worse!

Please allow me to introduce myself and apologize for bothering you; but it needs be? I’m most commonly known as Laser Haas (or Laser the Liquidator) whose company (“CLI”) was the Delaware Bankruptcy Court approved fiduciary presiding over the eToys bankruptcy case (DE Bankr. 01-706).
It is nationally significant & important to gather your Administration’s attention to dynamics of profuse “prosecutorial gaps”, I’ve witnessed and reported, over a protracted time, concerning billions in material adverse, interstate, “harms”, upon thousands of persons, by “enterprising” agents.

Unfortunately, you’ve inherited rotten apple issues apropos to your pick to head the S.E.C., as justice has been hindered, aided, and abetted by prior bad faith watchdogs, who were incompetent, or willfully blind, or outright duplicitous, including “revolving door” observable dynamics of fed venality.

Precisely, Goldman Sachs personnel, associated parties & firms (including fed corrupts), have been engaging in assuring success of RICO efforts, of Wall Street fraud and unjust enrichments. This includes, but is not limited to, misfeasance & malfeasance, obstruction, bribery, retaliation, bankruptcy fraud, lies, betrayal of clients, and frauds upon multiple courts. Also RICO “predicate act” violations of Intimidation of Victim/Witness & Retaliations resulted in deaths. Goldman Sachs and its crony firms, or any affiliated party, especially from the double-dealing law firm of Sullivan & Cromwell, has benefited from this. Your S.E.C. pick is thus akin to Nitti having auspice over Al Capone cases; which, one would hope, Mr. President, you would most certainly agree, could never be allowed to occur!

Of many undeniable facts, Goldman Sachs took eToys public, in 1999, breaching its fiduciary duty via a pump-n-dump stock fraud “spinning” scheme (please see N.Y. Times March 2013 article by Joe Nocera, titled “Rigging the I.P.O. Game” {primarily about our eToys}).

This “Rigging” story notes the stock price of eToys rocketed (our notes state $85 per share) when the public company was only permitted, by Goldman Sachs, to get less than $20 per share, (as improperly split - spun back - a good portion of windfall unjust enrichments, to choice handpicks).

Morris Nichols Arsht & Tunnell (“MNAT”) silently represents Goldman Sachs & Bain Capital (a partner in the RICO Bankruptcy Ring of our eToys {see In re: Arkansas 3rd Cir. 78 F.2d 645}), when MNAT asked for, and received (by concealing of MNAT’s conflicts of interests) the Delaware Bankruptcy Court’s chief justice, Mary F. Walrath, abusive approval of the MNAT law firm (p/m/k Greg Werkheiser) to become & remain the court’s appointed Debtor’s counsel of the eToys cases.

MNAT, Paul Traub (and Traub’s secret partner, Barry Gold, as post-bankruptcy petition eToys executive officer), usurped me, to reduce sales prices to Kay Bee and eradicate my CLI entity approved litigation against Goldman Sachs, in the New York Supreme Court case #60805/2002, of eToys, renamed ebc1 after Bain Capital stole eToys, v Goldman Sachs (to get recompense for the IPO fraud).

While benefiting from overt acts (false affidavits), MNAT nominated Tom Petters Ponzi “control” partner Paul Traub, who was also eToys court approved Creditors’ counsel, and subsequent partner of New York attorney/fraudster Marc Dreier - to be our eToys prosecutor of Goldman Sachs.

Hence, via racket treachery, Goldman Sachs sued Goldman Sachs; and eToys lost a billion $$$!

Heretofore, I’ve informed the FBI, S.E.C., Justice Department, OIG, Public Integrity and others, of these facts, dozens of times over as many years; but they decline due to numerous reasons that the DOJ would be embarrassed. Including the March 2008 shutdown of the Public Corruption Task Force (and threats against agents). Additionally, Colm Connolly was an observable, unethical, self-dealing, federal prosecutor (retired), who was both the Assistant United States Attorney, from 1992 – 1999; and then Mr. Connolly became top dog, nominated by George W. Bush, August 2, 2001. (Sad to say, he’s not the only one, there’s AUSA James Lackner, too and his dead brother Marty).

Colm Connolly and James Lackner are worthy of germane homicide investigations!

In the interim, Colm Connolly was partner of the MNAT law firm, from the period of time, of 1999, until August 2, 2001. This era of time, of 1999, to August 2001, is apropos, (retroactively speaking). Proof of Colm Connolly hollowness is documented by the DOJ’s very own website (of the lesser known “Office of Legal Policy”), of the historical resume of Colm Connolly.

Furtively, Sullivan & Cromwell assisted these schemes, and the deliberate destruction of our eToys public company (which I had saved, in 2001) by omissions and overt acts. Including, but not limited to, Sullivan & Cromwell aiding & abetting Goldman Sachs criminal conspiracy, via MNAT, Paul Traub, and coconspirator Bain Capital, after Bain Capital was aided into the ‘The Learning Company’ by Goldman Sachs (Mattel was subsequently merged with The Learning Company, aided by MNAT, causing catastrophic losses in the billions; which was covered up by the “switching sides” of Connolly; and Bain Capital is also deserving of a RICO seizure of its Toys R Us, and yanking of its Mattel stock).

Arguably, if Goldman Sachs & Bain Capital can so blatantly & flagrantly break the law, with undue influence of a few fed prosecutors; then it reasonable to presume massive material adverse harms will only get exponentially worse, once one of their close nit (revolved door) own, is put in charge of the very federal agency charged with the duty to protect U.S., investors & our Constitution.

Thousands lost billions and people are dead, untimely, due to justice being stymied, visibly!

Respectfully, I must ardently request, Mr. President, you cancel any & all Goldman Sachs affiliated parties from having authority at Justice Department agencies? You didn’t create this debacle, but you can drain a nasty swamp cesspool, if you so choose to do so! Also, please understand, time is of the essence, and the right thing must be done, to put an end to the insanity. Unless I get a response, very quickly, I will consider it negative notice, compelling me to escalate the matters, judiciously!

Evidences are easy to verify, and I’ve dared the DOJ to arrest me, if all stated isn’t true. We are even blessed (so to speak) with confessions; and one would hope you would agree, Mr. President, that we can never allow any Capone types to “retroactively” retire from their organized crimes? Nor permit can our nation permit anyone connected to Nitti-types to be federal watchdogs, over RICO cases!

Sincerely,
/s/ Laser Steven Haas

A federal complaint filed in California accuses the Department of Justice of trying to collect the names of anonymous donors to a legal defense fund for journalist Barrett Brown, who had been imprisoned for four years prior to his release in November.

The class-action suit was filed in U.S. District Court in Northern California on Monday, claiming a United States Assistant Attorney and the FBI agent at the center of Brown’s 2012 arrest subpoenaed WePay, the host of a crowd-funded legal defense fund, for the identities of anonymous donors and the amounts they contributed.

Sweden's deputy PM is causing a stir after posting an image appearing to parody Donald Trump's signing of an anti-abortion executive order.

Isabella Lovin, who is also the country’s climate minister, published a photo that shows her signing a new law surrounded by female colleagues.

The image has drawn comparisons with Mr Trump’s photo in which no women were present.

Within hours the post was shared and liked thousands of times on Facebook.
