laserhaas's JournalA fateful mistake haunts Goldman Sachs
Source: Wall Street Journal repeated by eFINANCIAL NEWS
Goldman Sachs is entangled in an increasingly contentious fight over a 2014 takeover on which it advised, underscoring the treacherous legal environment for mergers and acquisitions bankers.
Goldman faces fresh allegations that it failed to spot in time, then covered up, a share-count error that shortchanged Tibco Software investors by $100 million when the company was sold last year. The lawsuit, whose allegations Goldman denies, seeks unspecified damages for Tibco investors.
It comes as scrutiny of bankers’ advice, one of the top sources of Wall Street fees and bragging rights in a record year for M&A, is on the rise.
The Tibco case is among a slew of lawsuits targeting bankers for their advice. Plaintiffs’ lawyers have been looking closely at bankers, searching for conflicts of interest or errors that could skew takeovers. As the case has proceeded, more allegations against Goldman have come to light, a number of them not previously reported. Goldman is seeking to have the case dropped, and a Delaware judge will rule in the coming weeks.

[center] [font size=4 color=blue]Covering Up Goldman Sachs Crimes Results in Untimely Deaths [/font][/center]
Some are going to argue that this is a hi-jack and (frankly) I don't give a dang. Better people than the naysayers here, have done their utmost best, to brown nose Romney, Bain Capital and Goldman Sachs, to help bury this story. The issue is Goldman Sachs are financial terrorists who betray everyone and their brother, to benefit from Wall Street fraud and federal corruption; and they are about to be exposed for it, on a whole new level.
It is a matter of fact that my fellow eToys shareholder, Robert Alber, had to shoot and kill career criminal Michael Sesseyoff, after Robert Alber turned down a $175,000.00 bribe from a Jack Abramoff partner. (See Kingman Arizona story - HERE). Robert Alber was never charged with homicide, because his self defense was justifiable; but that doesn't mean they won't come after him again.
Additionally, Marty Lackner was involved in the Tom Petters Ponzi. Marty tried to reach out to me (and his friends finally did get me the details that) James Lackner was the brother of Marty Lackner. That's Minnesota Assistant United States Attorney, former head of the Criminal Division presiding over Tom Petters Ponzi - J. Lackner.
And then Marty Lackner was found hung dead in his closet (see HERE & HERE).
AND
Here's the proof that Marty Lackner was the brother or Minnesota Assistant United States Attorney J. Lackner = and that proof specifically states that;
The Department of Justice corroborates (HERE) the fact that J. Lackner was Crime Division Chief!
Prior to this appointment, Lackner served as Senior Litigation Counsel from December 1994 to August 2005; Criminal Division Chief from August 2005 to April 2007; and First Assistant U.S. Attorney from March 2006 to December 2006. Lackner, who joined the Office in December 1983, graduated from Macalester College in 1975 and Northwestern University Law School in 1978. He joined the Office after working in the Minnesota Attorney General’s Office.
Then, beyond the fact that these crooked fraudsters had a hand in my daughter's abduction, to warn me to "Back Off", there's this tragedy that still remains a Homicide Unsolved. When yours truly offered a place for the investigators to look, some scoffed, others balked and the worst of all possible scenarios happened. The man I believe had a hand in John ("Jack"
Wheeler's New Year's Eve, 2010 untimely demise, jumped up and becomes Jack Wheeler's Widow's counsel.
We now have video proof that Jack Wheeler was in the Nemours Bldg - that houses DOJ offices and Corrupt Connolly's too.
WHO KILLED JACK WHEELER - USA Today
Speaking publicly for the first time about what he saw the day Wheeler vanished, Dill told USA TODAY that he wondered whether he had stumbled onto a crime scene. A side door to the house was open — not much, just a crack. Chairs had been knocked over, and the radios were silent. Dill had left them on a few days before. That's how Wheeler liked it when he was gone: radios on and tuned to NPR. As he once told Dill, the sound made it seem as though someone was home.
In the kitchen, broken plates sat in the sink. A tall plant had been overturned. And Wheeler's cadet sword from West Point lay on the floor, unsheathed. Dill remembers a heavy dusting of Comet cleanser on the kitchen's wood plank floor — and what he believes was the print of a bare foot in the powder.
Had Wheeler, who battled bipolar disorder, simply become unhinged, trashed his house and left? That wasn't the Jack Wheeler he knew, Dill says. If Wheeler's home had been robbed, nothing seemed to be missing — not the sculptures nor the paintings Wheeler's wife, Katherine Klyce, collected. Not the TV or the stereo.
Dill says he decided to first call Wheeler and his wife, rather than police. He left voicemails for both. He never heard back.
Don't you find it just a little strange that this witness was never contacted by the Police? Yours truly spoke with the Wilmington, Delaware Detective, who was purportedly handling Jack Wheeler's case. John (Jack) Wheeler was a West Point man, one of the key person in getting the Vietnam Memorial completed and maintained. He also was part of MADD (Mother's against drunk driving) and had a Vietnam Children's Orphanage Charity. On top of all that, Jack Wheeler worked for President's Reagan, George HW Bush and GW Bush.
But it was his stint as SEC prosecutorial staff that was of importance to yours truly;
and whom do you think we were asking Jack Wheeler to investigate (and what files vanished from his ransacked house)?
Goldman Sachs, Colm Connolly and MNAT - THAT's WHO!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, please forgive me, if it "appears" that I'm hi-jacking a subject that is so apropos - it is frightening - for the sake of justice.
For, it could very well be - that moi is suddenly yanked into the realm of surreal - joining Marty and Jack; because, unlike Robert Alber - I don't believe in carrying guns. If I did, Paulson, Blankfein, Connolly and Mitt would already have seen justice - Ole West Way!
Justice - IS - coming.

[font size=6 color=blue] Goldman Sachs [/font][font size=6] Woes Loom Large [/font][/center]
As you see, in the picture above, Bernie Madoff is far right and Tom Petters is in the middle. You probably haven't heard too much about Tom Petters Ponzi, even though he bought Sun Country Airlines, Fingerhut and Polaroid. The feds have always said that the Tom Petters Ponzi is a mere $3.7 Billion dollar fraud (in real terms, the Tom Petters Ponzi is more than $50 Billion and one federal authority already has stated over $40 Billion (see court filing - HERE).
In September 2008, the FBI raided and arrested Tom Petters; but Paul Traub (secret Frank Nitti for Bain Capital and Goldman Sachs), the [link:June2012_DKelley_PaulTraub_Complaint_Lawsuit_PettersFraud|controller of Tom Petters Ponzi], got off 'Scot Free', after Paul Traub paid a small fine of a few hundred thousand dollars.
Fingerhut that was owned by Paul Traub and Tom Petters - was never seized by the Feds; which is because Bain Capital and Goldman Sachs are part of the deal (see article - HERE and HERE).
However, thanks to attorney at law David H. Relkin and the Relkin Law firm and His Honor District Court Judge Jed S. Rakoff, the facts are now being scrutinized, about federal corruption; which includes mass amounts of willful blindness, to these Bain Capital and Goldman Sachs organized crimes.
His Honor Judge Jed S. Rakoff is one of the true justices who abides by the law. His Honor Jed S. Rakoff presides over Marc Dreier Ponzi and he is going to see the case (Relkin Law - HERE).
Now more facts are coming to light about Goldman Sachs Wall Street Fraud, Federal Corruption and Cover Ups!
This is sooooo - apropos! Goldman Sachs is in hot water, in more than just one case. We've been fighting Paul Traub who secretly lies and fleeces his own court approved clients for the furtive, unjust enrichment sake of Mit Romney, Bain Capital and their partners in many bad faith acts - Goldman Sachs.
Now, after 15 years of fighting Wall Street Fraud and federal corruption protecting such, we are also - making GSachs nervous.
Our company was eToys and it was taken public in 1999, with Goldman Sachs as agent. Our initial public offering (IPO) of eToys.com stock, soared to $85, after Goldman Sachs executive Lawton Fitt made bets it would hit $80.
Somehow, eToys.com received less than $20 per share (in a classic pump-n-dump "Spinning" fraud scheme).
Yours truly arranged that Goldman Sachs would be sued, by eToys and the lawyers did that effort, in the New York Supreme Court case of eToys (renamed ebc1) v. Goldman Sachs (case number 601805/2002). Unfortunately, unknown to myself at the time, the Delaware Bankruptcy Court approved counsel for eToys, Morris Nichols Arsht & Tunnell (MNAT.com) was also working for Goldman Sachs and Bain Capital, when eToys was sold to Bain Capital/Kay Bee, for prices discounted by the deceitful lawyer at MNAT (Greg Werkheiser). and MNAT also nominated the party (Paul Traub) to prosecute Goldman Sachs, in the New York Supreme Court case.
Hence, in essence, Goldman Sachs sued Goldman Sachs, for a Billion dollar fraud - and eToys (of course) LOST!

Of the Bernie Madoff, Tom Petters, Paul Stanford and Marc Dreier Ponzi schemes, everyone keeps tossing around the question that begs - of - How do fraudsters manage to get away with it, for so long?
The answer simply is - your posses/OWN the very United States Attorney investigating your cases!

[font size=3 color=navy] U.S. Attorney Chris Christie Pays Off former USAG Ashcroft $50 Million [/font]
[br]
Long ago, in 2007, yours truly found out that the Delaware United States Attorney, Colm F. Connolly, was a former MNAT partner (see Colm's Dept. of Justice Office of Legal Policy - archived resume - HERE). Problem with that is, MNAT is the local counsel for Bain Capital and Goldman Sachs, in Delaware. Colm Connolly never disclosed this to yours truly; but kept telling us that there were no crimes and/or any reason to investigate and/or prosecute Bain Capital, Paul Traub, MNAT and Goldman Sachs.
This is the essence of federal corruption that Sheldon Adelson paid $100 million to Romney's campaign for.
When we found out that Colm Connolly was a crooked prosecutor, it was reported to the Dept of Justice Los Angeles Branch, where the Public Corruption Task Force was housed (see Time Stamped/ Clocked Copy Complaint - HERE). Instead of properly investigating and prosecuting Delaware United States Attorney Colm Connolly, then the Public Corruption Task Force was SHUT DOWN and career federal prosecutors threatened to silence (HERE).
As iterated in the L.A. Times March 2008 article "Shake-up roils federal prosecutors"
Just prior to that period of time, United States Attorney General John Ashcroft had stepped up to the plate and was trying to help expose the federal corruption within the Dept. of Justice, the United States Trustee's office and the collusion with federal judges. As is noted here, during public hearings, of the Government in Sunshine Act, where Francis C.P. Knize reiterated Ashcroft's remarks that;
"Bankruptcy court corruption is not just a matter of bankruptcy trustees in collusion with corrupt bankruptcy judges. The corruption is supported, and justice hindered by high ranking officials in the United States Trustee Program. The corruption has advanced to punishing any and all who mention the criminal acts of trustees and organized crime operating through the
United States Bankruptcy Courts. As though greed is not enough, the trustees, in collusion with others, intentionally go forth to destroy lives. Exemptions provided by law are denied debtors. Cases are intentionally, and unreasonably kept open for years. Parties in cases are sanctioned to discourage them from pursuing justice. Contempt of court powers are misused to coerce litigants into agreeing with extortion demands. This does not ensure integrity and restore public confidence.
The American victimized and held hostage by bankruptcy court corruption, have no where to turn."
[br]
This is a true synopsis of the real way the United States Trustee program is working, in collusion with federal justices, corruption of the highest order, where tax paid public servants are betraying their oath of office and helping those like Goldman Sachs who are openly assaulting the Constitution of the United States and giving the finger to our systems of justice.
But that can change - if Diogenes quest is fulfilled. When you have honorable heroes like David H Relkin and His Honorable Justice Jed S. Rakoff, then you just may have a chance for justice.
You certainly can't have it with men who figure out grand scheme ways to back off the USAG's efforts.
Chris Christie Gifts his former Boss Ashcroft, $50 million and Poof, Christie Becomes a Governor
[center]
[/center]
Then, out of the clear blue, John Ashcroft's proper lambaste of federal corruption extraordinary, starts vanishing from the web. When we search for the reasons why, we found out that New Jersey United States Attorney Chris Christie gives former boss USAG John Ashcroft a $50 Million NO BID deal, for a Deferred Prosecution Agreement.
As noted by WaPo, who also provided the pic above (HERE)
Former attorney general John D. Ashcroft defended a government-sanctioned contract yesterday that could earn his consulting firm more than $50 million, saying that nothing is improper about the selection made by one of his former U.S. attorneys.
OH REALLY! - Nothing wrong he (Ashcroft) says - with the $50 million dollar deal.
What was that hallowed antiquity term we use to utilize for the event of the top federal prosecutor receiving millions of dollars in payments, for federal prosecutors to forgo doing prosecution of crimes?
Just sayin.........
Goldman Sachs is above the law and doesn't consider what they do, as crimes/ mistakes.
What GSachs does consider a mistake - is the fact that they are about to get caught.
We are mere amoeba's fighting a horde of Goliath's, who benefited from the demise/ cover up - via homicides untimely - of Marty Lackner, Anna Schaeffer, Harry A and Jack Wheeler, just to name a few.
Obviously, though we've managed to assist in closing the law firms of Dreier LLP, Traub Bonacquist & Fox, Hutchins Wheeler, Kronish Lieb and Dewey LeBeouf, we are not doing our true job, until MNAT.com goes down and Sullivan & Cromwell get spanked for helping Goldman Sachs's organized crimes in the eToys and other cases.
But it ain't over yet - and the fat lady is warming up her vocal cords!
We can see justice happen, if only a few thousand people pass this story around, before Bain Capital, Goldman Sachs and other manifest injustice powers that be, try another cover up/ bury - of the truth.
Stand ye not by idle when evil is amongst you - lest faith and hope for justice - be all in vain!
Heroes such as David Relkin and Judge Jed S. Rakoff are now going where thousands of others have fear to tread. They are doing their job of protecting their clients - U.S. - the American citizenry, from the organized criminal enterprises of Bain Capital, Paul Traub and Goldman Sachs.
Mitt Romney claims to have "retroactively" retired from Bain Capital, in 2001, back to February 11, 1999. Strange thing is, this is the exact period of time that the corrupt federal prosecutor, Colm F Connolly, was a partner in Mitt Romney, Bain Capital and Goldman Sachs law firm of MNAT.com and crimes of Stage Stores, The Learning Company, Kay Bee and eToys transpired (See Colm Connolly's resume - HERE).
So, I ask you, could Al Capone have simply "retroactively" retired from his organized crimes?

Equitable Christianity: Son Seeks to Evict Father From Home
This is a tale of woes that appears to have become the norm in America. Senior citizens are often (in the Rethuglican era way of modern day America) abused as desires may be, for the sake of bilking parents of their hard earned, life savings, monies.
About a year ago, moi took on another senior citizens case, where it was obvious there was a need, but no one seemed to care to fill it. This guy (Stan) is one with a kind heart, but somewhat to affable and a little gullible. Having a work ethic extraordinary, at age 72, Stan would do odd jobs, for anyone, for very little money. Each and every week, he would travel to see his son and grandchildren.
Amazingly, Stan's son did a video recording piece, at their church, on how his dad serves a ministry to others at casino's. Then, as a reward for good deeds, Stan's son is now trying to evict his father (who sleeps on a couch).

[center][font size=6] Elder Abuse by Children, is Par for the Course [/font][/center]
Having oligarchs as adversaries isn't any joy. Every single biz venture moi tried to develop, was assaulted by the powers that be, to make sure I'm not gathering strength in the battles against them. Hence, for the last decade, my efforts had to be in an area that even my enemies wouldn't dare to meddle. Since 2004, I've been helping senior citizens battle bad faith parties (more often than not - family members), who try to steal their lifetime savings (doing so under "color of law" .
Sadly, senior citizen centers have closed, left and right, giving the elderly very little places to seek guidance.
Adriana's Son Steals Her Life Savings
For months at a time, I had to sleep in my car and storage locker, using my money to help others. One case was an 87 year old woman, Adriana Goldstein. I had to rescue her and put her up at a hotel (because her son stole her life savings).
While his dad was on his way off this 3rd rock from the sun, Adriana's child rolled her husband into the bank and had him sign over the business and accounts to the wicked sibling. The son steals everything, for loose living, including Adriana's 2 decades of Social Security that was saved away!
I met Adriana by accident, on a high holiday, where moi was in a non kosher restaurant and Adriana overheard me apologizing about not being a "practicing" yid. Upon leaving the restaurant, the lady hostess called me and thanked me for taking the time to talk to Adriana, who was suffering from her 3rd cancer battle (at that time pancreatic); and was going in for an operation wondering if she died during such, if anyone would even know where they buried her.
Needless to say, I turned my car around and gave Adriana my phone number (letting her adopt me).
Adriana was left with nothing and had been paying 1/2 her little Social Security to sleep on a couch; but she suffered from psychological abuse. A very wicked (bible thumping) woman rented Adriana a couch. During the winter, this wicked witch nailed down the windows and pulled the fuse from the electric heaters. Then she would heat the house by the "gas oven" door being open.
Adriana was a suffering Jewish woman, with Holocaust era memories horrific (including having to lay down, with her son, in a pile of dead bodies, where the Nazi's killed everyone in the town).
Fortunately, Adrian, , suffering from her 4th cancer battle, now 97, has been, for the last several years, at a better place.
Sadly, her son has never visited (as far as I know) and Adriana just wants to move on!
Bob Elias being Evicted by Bob Elias
After getting her stable, Bob Elias, a Lebanese man in his 80's, was being evicted by his sons (Ben and Bob Jr.), who were Jewish. If it had been 2 Lebanese kids throwing out a Jewish old man .... well..., hence, being a late blooming yid myself (story for another day), it seemed only right that I take on the case.
The kids were born in the house and never had to work a day in their lives; because Bob Sr., had a wife who had been prudent with the savings from Sr., life long job at Universal Studios. Because Bob Sr., was dyslexic, his wife took care of everything paperwork wise. Upon her demise (due to Fen Phen), the kids (apparently) drummed up a will that evicted Bob Sr., from the house.
Law makers know that children tend to get greedy. Had Mr. Elias chosen better counsel (one regularly experienced in California Probate), there's a Law that protect seniors from this elderly abuse; which permits total eviction of greedy kids, for at least 60 days, after a spouse's demise.
After the kids squandered approximately $2 million, they went after their father's last remaining asset - the house. Yours truly moved in the day before the eviction was to happen. Through much works and many court appearances, Bob Elias Sr., was able to stay in his house, for another year. It cost me $10,000.00, but we were able to get 2 Restraining Orders for physical, financial and emotional abuse.
Justice wasn't served though, as the kids got the house and even went after their fathers personal belongings.
Fortunately, that judge - is no longer there!

Stan's Son Seeks to Evict Father to Fleece Inheritance
[/font] [/center]
And now there's a sweet heart guy, who won my assistance for free, when he literally gave the shirt off his back, along with his last $22, to a homeless guy who had his bike stolen. Though he is a die-hard LameBlah listener, Stan still is overjoyed to tell others that he is helping in the fight against Robney (RMoney Mitt).
Stan's work ethic is exceptional. So much so that he recently wound up in the V.A. Hospital as a result of working 9 hours in the 94 degree sun, without a moments rest, after helping another senior citizen (who lived in his van), to get back on the road.
After Stan losing his arguments with me, to stubbornly refuse to go to the hospital, he was immediately put into I.C.U. (critical care) for his heart beat and blood pressure readings being off the charts.
While Stan was in the hospital, his deplorable son abused him by seizing the monies ever which way he could.
Knowing that he liked to gamble, Stan had his inheritance, from his father, split between his sister and son, for safe keeping. The sister got the Burbank house (paid for) that he was born and raised in; which would pass on to Stan (if his sister would pass on 1st). There was also several hundred thousand dollars in cash that 1/2 stayed with sis and the other 1/2 to his son, for safe keeping.
[center]
Stan's son now believes in squatters rights to his father's fortune.
[/center]
According to Stan, originally, the son did a misdeed, of putting the monies into the stock market (without Stan's permission). Stan told me that his son refused to cash out the substantial profit; and then 9/11 hit and the profit turned into a big loss. Of the considerable negative resulting, it was mutually agreed to buy a house, in Long Beach, CA - with the remaining monies.
For over a dozen years now, Stan has permitted one of his 3 retirement checks, to go directly to his son's address, to pay the mortgage on the Long Beach home. At the barest of minimums, with the house being acquired at approximately $250,000.00, with 13 years of payments always on time, and the house now being worth around $500K; this means there is (at least) a couple of hundred thousands of dollars in equity.
But Stan's son says it's now none of his father's business and the son is trying to evict his father!
You won't believe this, unless you actually see it, but Stan has been paying the mortgage, electricity, insurance, taxes, sewer repair, appliance repairs, lawn and everything else... so that Stan can sleep on a couch.
Yeah - I know - said you wouldn't believe it (but it's true)....
One bedroom belongs to the former girlfriend, who has been there (rent free) for a decade now. Stan also has a couple of other roommates (house is 3 bdrm), including this one who was a 1 time girlfriend (for just 1 night). The son, who himself had an affair that he disclosed to his father, constantly bible brow beats the father for having a one time stand with the roommate.
Another bedroom belongs to a handicap guy who was actually in the Wizard of Oz film (and who had an attorney rip him off all his life monies of $400,000). The other bedroom is the caretaker of the handicap guy (who is also caretaker of his own sister - as well). So Stan sleeps on the couch (that he actually claims to love as his bed).
While Stan was in critical care at the V.A. Hospital, his son goes into the house (that was put in his son's name, in case Stan would ever pass away - making an easy transition), and the nice, caring, brag at his church about his father - dear sweet son - signs the renters to leases; and takes the money away from Stan.
Yours truly quickly points out that this is abuse!
So, the son, with wife in tow, comes to the house (after he lands the plane he co-owns) and insists on meeting me at Starbucks. During the meeting, the son and wife pull out rental comps, to show me how Stan his paying below average rent.
To which I reply that "you can't bark to me about how much 'rent' Stan is paying for his own house".
After chit chats back and forth, both the wife and son, simultaneously, confess to me that it is Stan's equity. Then they explain that they are saving the money for Stan's ill health days and to prevent him from gambling it away.
PUHLLLEEAAASSEEE - Stan did not one - but 2 - I.C.U. stays and has near ZERO medical bills.
Fact of the matter is, not only does Stan have his SSI and 2 pension checks (local & national, lifetime Steelworkers); but Stan is also a Veteran. Hence, all he has to pay for a massive hospital stay (thus far) is some medicines (and that is being rectified in adding Medicare part {only allowed - for some weird reason - to be applied for Jan. through March). Outside of that, the only other bill has been the ambulance trip (for his second emergency).
Stan explained to me that every time he spoke with his son, about equity in the house, the son would refuse to go into details.
Also, Stan has a (bad) habit, of borrowing, at high interest, whenever the whim hits him to have some fun. Using my abilities to solve problems, I advised Stan (who always made his payments on time, for over a dozen years - but hasn't had a credit card of his own for 30 years) to get his affairs in order and reduce his interest expense and also get credit for his paying loan payments.
Stan now has 2 credit cards, after his score climbed from 422 to 630
When I told his son that I've done all I can do, to help his father get his affairs in order and that the son now needs to step up and help Stan pay off $13,000 in high interest loans (that were being perpetuated prior to my arrival), needless to say, Stan's son blew a gasket and screamed at (his high blood pressure) father and myself.
Then, the dear sweet kind and considerate son responded, by post a "3 day pay or quit" notice on his father's house.
Originally, the son had agreed with me and Stan, to take the $600 per month that he took away from Stan (upon signing a lease with the 2 guys in the bedrooms), to pay tax bills (created by the son asking Stan to reduce the withholding from Stan's retirement check that was sent directly to the son).
Now that the tax bill is (purportedly) paid, the son refuses to give back Stan - the monies.
As a result, of Stan having no money remaining, from his retirement checks, due to his loan and son keeping all the monies situation, moi asked my attorney to help Stan, for a small contingency to be paid "if" Stan could get some monies from his son.
That counsel advised Stan to seek a Restraining Order (that was granted - until we have a full trial on November 25th).
So, come Thanksgiving week, the family will not be having a get together. Either the judge will make it clear to Stan's son that there needs to be a compromise (Stan is still willing to let his son have 1/2 of the equity) - OR - the judge will rule that the son can evict Stan from his own house.
Even if - arguendo - you grant the son the perverse logic that the house belongs to the son, then there is a FRAUD afoot. For the son has deceived his father to "believe" that Stan was paying the mortgage on Stan's own home, for over a dozen years.
Surely, if the son could rent out the bedrooms to people he doesn't even know, for $300 per month, utilities included (plus free laundry soap and toilet paper that Stan has paid for, all these years), then the son most kindly wouldn't rent out to Stan for any more than that..
Or would he?
One night, right before we sought the restraining order, Stan's son said he wanted to see his father and resolve the issues; and that he would give Stan the $13,000.00 he needed to pay off the loans. For, in so doing, Stan would be debt free and have enough money to enjoy his quality of life - remaining.
Instead - the son came to the house and picked up his father (insisting that he see dad - alone); and then the son tried to have Stan sign a lease, for $750.00 per month, for Stan to give away his rights and pay such - To Sleep On the Couch!
[br][hr][br]
[center][font size=6]
CONCLUSION
[/font][/center]
Because the son tried this stunt of sending a 3 day pay or quit notice, we're responding (in kind) by having the Sheriff serve the son the Restraining Order (he lives in circle end, with life long neighbors on each side). It is my hope and prayer that the son seeks competent legal counsel, who will advise him - correctly - to settle with pop. My counsel is willing to fly in; but the California legal system is staunchly against out of state lawyers representing parties.
Stan's son keeps saying the money is needed, in case Stan goes into a long hospital stay. Moi responded in stating that "all you do is banter, banter and obfuscate, and - at the end of the day - the Christian is stealing his dad's monies. Doesn't your bible command you to do just the opposite?"
As for the "corbin" (doing it for g=d premise), gambling isn't illegal;
and the father forgave the son for the impermissible stock market - GAMBLE!
It is all So wretched and I'm hoping for a considerate judge who is prudent (very hard to find these days).
We'll see!

[center][font size=6 color=red] UPDATE [/font][/center]
[br]
Sick, wicked son, goes through with the full trial on evicting his father from his father's own house. Fortunately, we get a decent judge who has no tolerance for bullchit and has "some" sympathy for pro se parties who appear to have a plausible defense.
Plausible defense's, still don't guarantee any defendant's will get vindication!
Unfortunately, though this son and his wife had confessed to yours truly, of it being the father's house and the father's equity, they found unscrupulous legal advice that said "house is in your name - so technically, you can screw your father, if you want to {may just run the 70ish year old into an early grave and hit the jackpot}. So, though plaintiff (wicked son) who is a high ranking executive at a bankish thingy, own lawyer was smart enough not to all plaintiff to call his wife as witness - yours truly did so for them.
Of course, the wife lied and is now guilty of perjury (should the tape of conversation arise - convicting).
Meanwhile, one can bet that the wibitch is royally pissed at hubby, of the fact that she had to lie for them (and hopefully the prick won't get any - for a long while).
So the trial, one that plaintiff's counsel told court would only take 20 minutes, rolls over from the morning and has to continue after lunch. But prior to the begin of the trial, in the morning, plaintiff and defendant have to exchange evidence. Wicked son's counsel knows they are caught lying (where the eviction papers say "oral" agreement), so the plaintiff's asks to amend and we object (as the Plaintiff's complaint is already marked "amended"
; but the judge looks in a book, cites some code and amends the complaint for plaintiff.
Now, me and the old guy are worried greatly.....
Then, plaintiff has to amend again, when I point out that the new written one states price is $1550; but the eviction papers say $1515. And judge says that since he is allowing the "written" old lease in (for 1 year in 2008) - he can allow the written part about amounts.
UH OH - things are looking bad for ye old guy and his personal assistant.
So, now defendants (moi and the son's dad) get to put on our case. I asked the judge if we might use the same exhibits of the plaintiff, as evidence for defendant. He says they can't take back the evidence that "they" submitted.
COOL!
We take the "written" lease that says that the rent is not past due, until late charge, after 5th day. Also, we point out that the 3day pay or quit, was on the 3rd day and argue it is premature. Then we point out that the fact that son is doing a bizarre argument that we were paying $1500 per month for 13 years; and became bad faith non payers THIS month, because we refused son's attempt to reduce rent to $750 per month.
PUHHHLLLLEEEAAASSEEE!
Then we point out that the son has testified his sole purpose for evicting his father, is to get me (dad's elder abuse advocate) out of the house. Son admits that - While his dad (tenant) was IN the Hospital - son (landlord) went into the house and signed leases with the 3 roommates, for the address of the house.
Yours truly points out to the court that the eviction papers are for the father (tenant) at the same house;
(hence - landlord cut out middle man while tenant was in hospital - with plan to rid tenant of particular friend).
Closing arguments of plaintiff's counsel is that this is a simple case of renter not paying rent.
------------------
Yours truly closes by saying, this is far from a simple case, it involves the distasteful dynamic of a son evicting his father, for the goal of getting rid of the person assisting the father against abuse. More specifically, the landlord hijacked the subtenants illegally, while 13 year tenant was in hospital and the landlord's seeks to use this court to prove his dad is incapable of handling himself and that this eviction court is the wrong venue to try to prove father is non compus mentas.
Judge responded "we said and you are correct".
Then we finished by my stating the son rented the house out, by leases, to 4 parties - and the leases are each for the entire house - not rooms a, b, c and d (being the couch dad sleeps on). And that plaintiff has argued incongruously the father using the garage, bathroom and kitchen means $750 per month for couch rental is fair value. And - being that son has admitted renting out 3 bedrooms to others for $300, the rent for a couch at $750 is absurd.
His Honor said he will take it under review and mail out his answer.
[hr]
On a side note, 3 other people came up to me and asked me to help them with their cases.
Meanwhile, here's another issue. Do you let this wicked son off the hook, when you know he told you one thing and he/ his wife - lied in court? Am I, a guy who has become a warrior against the likes of Mitt, to simply abandon this old man "if" the son wins the case of evicting his old man?
For REAL!
Nope, sorry, I'm not that kind of guy.
The old man gives me $300 a month for driving him 7 days a week and handling all of his financial affairs (dad's own bank, after 30 years, just gave him a Bank Credit Card and he now feels like he is a real guy). And I've become attached to the guy, where I help make sure he takes his heart medication, his Carnosine (very good publicly available substance for those who suffer memory lapses).
Even though the old guy has to borrow money from me, moi paid for his vacation at brand new hotel.
OH - by the way - son tried to call Sheriff and make me look like the bad guy. When police called dad to see if he was okay, I told police where we were staying, what was really going on and that it was none of the (landlord's) business where the tenant was that week.
Police dropped the case.
However, we have a great case against the son - who has been FORGING his father's signature on dad's pension check, for 13 years - WITHOUT any power of attorney (you know - that get out of jail free card - thingy).
Also, son is so stupid that his counsel is investigating me, with the son, and says I have to redact this story.
EAAANNNTTT.
No name of son, no last names, no specific dates or locations. Just general facts, telling the truth, as it transpires. And, speaking of truths, the genius son had head of security of the lending institution also investigate yours truly (we have picture proof and the name of security person).
Can anyone say invasion of privacy for a bad faith purpose?
On top of that, the brilliant executive, who owns his own plane and is supposed to be very sophisticated, was dumb enough to sign leases with the other roommates and put the son's workplace address on those leases.
Uh Oh!
Finally, there's another little thingy that doesn't bode well for the son, his signing/ forging his dad's signature on the pension checks may have another problem. If you are willing to steal from your own father, chances are you are also willing to evade taxes by not reporting your father's checks as rental income. We ran out of time to ask that question, in court the other day and I really regret that chance to watch him squirm when the judge would order the son to answer the friggin question. Tax "evasion" for 13 years, at $18,000 plus per year, with penalties and interest, would turn $250,000.00 monies gained, into a possible (if allowed to occur) "Offer in Compromise" of $1 million.
So, when we sue the wicked kid and his wife (he co-owns house and monies stolen from dad), the first thing we are going to seek to compel, is production of tax records for last 13 years.
What do you think will happen then?

PoliticusUSA.com: Romney on the Run - Again - Maybe
There's a story by Sarah Jones, of PoliticusUSA.com, which is taking into account that the Washington Post notes the GOP is in a panic (that Trump or Carson make actually win the Republican nomination). Knowing this might mean a guaranteed win for either Bernie Sanders and/or HRC, the panic party bigwigs are choosing to draft Romney - instead.
Really hope they do!
[center]
[br]
Pic above from PoliticusUSA.com's online item, today, is from OpEd titled;
[font size=5]In Desperate Effort To Stop The Crazy,
Republicans May Draft Mitt Romney
[/font]
[/center]
Sarah Jones is of the proper opine that Mitt is unfit to be POTUS; and moi is in total agreement (more about PoliticusUSA's stance against Romney, below). PoliticusUSA notes that;
Republicans are so desperate to stop the insanity that they are seriously considering drafting Mitt Romney to run against Trump and Carson. Philip Rucker and Robert Costa revealed in the Washington Post - that:
Party leaders and donors fear that nominating either man would have negative ramifications for the GOP ticket up and down the ballot, virtually ensuring a Hillary Rodham Clinton presidency and increasing the odds that the Senate falls into Democratic hands.
…
According to other Republicans, some in the party establishment are so desperate to change the dynamic that they are talking anew about drafting Romney — despite his insistence that he will not run again. Friends have mapped out a strategy for a late entry to pick up delegates and vie for the nomination in a convention fight, according to the Republicans who were briefed on the talks, though Romney has shown no indication of reviving his interest.
It's all Bull Chit, we all know Willard Mitt Romney wants to run and be President of the United States. After all, didn't he state he had a vision that he would ride a white horse inside the White House, one day.
Be that as it may, Sarah Jones does note that this looks good for the Democratic Party - either way.

POLITICUSUSA Notes that[/font]
[font size=4 color=navy] ROMNEY is a RACKETEER[/font][/center]
Mitt Romney has a whole lot of baggage that he has to get rid of, if he wants to run again, in 2016. One item he has to make sure is silenced, is yours truly. For - believe or not - I'm a "retroactive" secret. Mitt Romney is a racketeer; and moi has sued him for that. Just because Mitt has gotten away, 'Scot Free', due to tyranny, cronyism and corruption, doesn't change the fact that he is a Bankruptcy Ring Racketeer.
Al Capone was beyond the law. No local police, state attorney general and/or federal agent/ agency - regular - was able to stop/ arrest Capone and Frank Nitti, from doing their organized crimes. That is until Eliot Ness came along, with his Untouchables, and they found a way to bring him down for Tax Evasion.
Hope apropos is that!
As the pic above, from the New Yorker article by Jeffrey Toobin notes, Romney's 2012 campaign stated he was "RETROACTIVELY RETIRED".
As noted by Toobin's article; [br]
Ed Gillespie, a senior adviser to Mitt Romney’s campaign, went on CNN yesterday to explain the circumstances surrounding the former governor’s departure from his position at Bain Capital. Gillespie settled the controversy by saying that Romney left Bain and went to work at the Salt Lake City Olympics in 1999 and then “retired retroactively” from Bain in 2002. This explanation has met with criticism and ridicule.
Mitt is dodging the organized crimes (retroactive secrets) of The Learning Company, Kay Bee, Stage Stores, Paul Traub, Marc Dreier, Tom Petters, eToys, Colm Connolly and yours truly; and PoliticusUSA.com had the story on it back, in 2012, titled;

Goldman Sachs to pay $50M fine over documents scandal
Source: New York Post's Kevin Dugan
This time, the revolving door smacked Goldman Sachs on the backside.
Lloyd Blankfein’s bank is expected to pay a roughly $50 million fine and an ex-banker is expected to plead guilty to federal criminal charges that he took confidential documents from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, The Post has learned.
The civil penalties against Goldman are among the harshest ever levied by New York. The settlement is being ironed out between Goldman and the Department of Financial Services.
The criminal charges against the ex-banker, Rohit Bansal, who joined Goldman in July 2014, and the source of the documents, New York Fed banker Jason Gross, will be filed by Manhattan US Attorney Preet Bharara, according to a person briefed on the talks.

Holder is Pissed Off About Criticism:Tough CHIT He's A Wall Street Tool
Many have seen some of the more recent lambastes of Eric Holder, about the fact that he failed (miserably) in the task of reigning in and busting Wall Street fraudsters. Slapping fraudsters on the wrist, is a good way to cause a global financial sysem to collapse.
More recently, Eric Holder was being challenged, over and over, after Matt Taibbi's book was discussed. Just weeks ago, Holder was cornered and responded angrily. He lashed out at his critics, stating he was pissed off at people who don't work in the Department of Justice aren't qualified to criticize results.
REALLY! - Well, Piss on You Eric Holder, your tenure as a Wall Street Fraud tool trickled down and peed on U.S.!

[center][font size=4 color=burnt]Holder's Justice Dept. Shielded Romney's [/font][font size=4 color=navy]Bain Capital & Goldman Sachs[/font][/center]
In the picture above, Romney is the head of the crime family. To your left, is the picture of Paul Traub (with glasses) and Traub's partner Marc Dreier. Just below that is the picture of Tom Petters. Paul Traub was partners with Tom Petters and Marc Dreier. Tom Petters is doing 50 years in prison and Marc Dreier is doing 20.
Paul Traub is doing zero, nada - Zilch!
Below Romney is Goldman Sachs; and below them is a picture of United States Trustee Region 3 (also general counsel of Executive Office United States Trustees) Roberta DeAngelis. Without the willful blindness of DeAngelis, the Bankruptcy Ring could never get away with the organized crimes. She was supposed to report the confessions to lying under oath to the United States Attorney having jurisdiction. But - that would have been none other than - Colm F (friggin) Connolly.
As many of you know, moi has been trying, for a decade plus, to try to get an investigation and/or indictment of Goldman Sachs and Bain Capital. That indictment should have immediately transpired under Eric Holder; but his high-n-mightyness Eric Holder, has done even worse a job of prosecuting Wall Street frauds, than that his predecessors John Ashcroft, Alberto Gonzales and Michael Mukasey.
We have over 100 crimes in the cases of Stage Stores, Kay Bee, The Learning Company and eToys; but Eric Holders regime kept saying - over and over - that there's nothing to prosecute.
Really! Do confessions of deliberately lying under oath to a federal judge, 33 times - COUNT!
If your or I had done the same crimes that Bain Capital and Goldman Sachs achieved, via their attorneys and hidden executives, we would be serving 200 years in prison. But Holder bent down and licked the feet of his Wall Street lords. Romney and Blankfein can rest easy and steal as much as they want, openly, cause they are never going to be prosecuted.
Now his lordship Eric Holder is now back at his law firm Covington & Bove, getting $3 million a year and he claim it has nothing to do with his failures to prosecute.

At issue is the fact that any 1st year law student can prosecute our case of Wall Street frauds (Bain Cap. Goldman Sachs and Wells Fargo involved); but everyone gives up knowing that the "Fix" is "IN". Many people, who aren't victims of the fraud upon me and my fellow eToys.com parties of interests, tend to say it simply isn't worth it, you can't beat city hall, nor can you defeat oligarchs the likes of Mitt Romney.
Hmmm.... wonder what Paul Stanford, Tom Petters, Marc Dreier and Bernie Madoff have to say about that!

[/center]
We can readily prove, to anyone that gives a damn, his wannabe highness Mitt Romney benefited from organized crimes. Though Bain Capital and Goldman Sachs have gotten off, thus far, 'Scot Free', concerning Stage Stores, Kay Bee, The Learning Company and eToys (among others) - that doesn't mean they will ALWAYS get away with their organized crimes.
Guarantee you - whoever Bernie Sanders puts in office as Attorney General - won't sit idle by!
The Learning Company Fraud
In 1999, the MNAT.com law firm helped with the Delaware merger of The Learning Company with Mattel Toys. Reportedly, almost immediately, Mattel investors lost billions of dollars, due to the merger (see L.A. Times article on $3 Billion loss - HERE)
However, there was no investigation and/or prosecution, of who scammed who; because the Delaware Assistant United States Attorney, Colm Connolly (all of sudden) became and MNAT law firm partner and;
POOF - no investigation of The Learning Company fraud (owned by Romney, Bain Cap & others)
[br][hr][br]
[/center] [font size=3]
Additional Billion Dollars Crimes While Colm Connolly was partners of MNAT [/font]
[/center]
In our eToys cases, Kay Bee and Stage Stores (among others) there are organized crimes, all over the place, by Bankruptcy Rings of attorneys who betray their court approved clients trusts. But you won't see any investigation and/or prosecution by the Delaware United States Attorney's office -
Because that person was Colm F Connolly!
That's right, prior to The Learning Company $3 Billion fraud, Colm F Connolly was the Assistant United States Attorney, who then became a partner of MNAT, in 1999. Colm remained as an MNAT partner until August 2, 2001, when GW Bush nominated him for the sole position as the One and Only United States Attorney over Delaware cases.
See Colm Connolly's resume at the Department of Justice website ( HERE ).
Hence, we have musical chairs. One day Colm Connolly is the Assistant United States Attorney, in Wilmington, DE - where The Learning Company merger with Mattel resulted in a $3 Billion loss. MNAT was one of the law firms involved. Colm becomes a partner of MNAT (see the DOJ resume - HERE) and POOF, no investigation and/or prosecution occurs. Romney, Bain and associated parties now get 12 million shares of Mattel.
Then Kay Bee, Stage Stores and eToys frauds transpire between 1999 and 2001, while Colm Connolly is an MNAT partner. When yours truly reports bribery attempts, in 2001, POOF, Colm Connolly goes back to the Department of Justice and becomes the top hauncho, numero uno head federal prosecutor over Bain Capital and eToys cases (STage Stores is in Houston).
For seven years, we keep sending proofs of crimes - including CONFESSIONS (by Paul Traub, Barry Gold and MNAT) to lying under oath and/or hiding conflicts of interests, in federal bankruptcy cases. Never once does the Delaware Department of Justice tell any of us that Colm Connolly was a partner of the firm we seek an indictment of.
Instead, it goes on for those 7 years that Colm Connolly keeps refusing to investigate and/or prosecute MNAT, Bain Capital, Paul Traub, Michael Glazer and many other crimes that any 1st year law student would have a field day, career making, prosecution happy time, convicting parties.
[br][hr][br]
[center][font size=5] DOJ Shuts Down Public Corruption Task Force [/font][/center]
Then, in mid/late 2007, proof is given to yours truly, about Colm Connolly's secret. On December 7, 2007, we immediately go to the Department of Justice where the Public Corruption Task Force is housed and report the crimes. A Federal Judge's Clerk assists me, instructing to get each and every page Time Stamped/Clocked. Guess what happens to the Public Corruption Task Force just weeks later (March 2008).
They SHUT IT DOWN the Task Force and actually (reportedly) threaten career prosecutors to be silent!

[center][font size=4 color=navy] Scolding and Pissing Off Holder [/font][/center]
[br]
Some of the scathing items against former United States Attorney General includes, but is not limited to, Matt Taibbi's book "The Divide: incandescent indictment of the American justice-gap" that is talked about at BoingBoing (here). The remarks include notes that the Department of Justice is on "bureaucratic autopilot... a steel trap for losers and a greased pipeline to money, power and impunity for the winners.
Another, similar remark on the status quo, from Boing's notes of Taibbi's book, is this one that;
[font size=5] Sellout Eric Holder says He is Pissed [/font]
[br]
Another online remark scolding Eric Holder, comes from Dan Froomkin of "The Intercept" (the pic above being from Froomkin's piece). As noted by MR. Froomkin, Holder takes umbrage with criticism of his tenure. Dan's online item quotes Eric Holder in the OpEd titled "Holder Defends Record of Not Prosecuting Financial Fraud", as Holder stated;
“I’m proud to be back at the firm,” he said. “It’s a great firm. And I’m proud of the work I did at the Justice Department.”
Additionally, the Intercept journalist details the following specifics that;
Holder had all the statutory authority he needed to prosecute straightforward crimes such as robosigning fraud, perjury in front of Congress by Goldman Sachs executives,
or for that matter, HSBC’s money laundering for Mexican drug cartels.
He {Holder} simply chose not to.
(In response to another questioner, he denied that any of his decisions not to prosecute were based on the massive legal teams that were fielded against the government.) Moreover, he actively waved off offers of additional help such as the suggestion from Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, that Congress give him more staff for his Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities Working Group, or extend the statute of limitations on some crimes.{ emphasis added }
[font size=4]HAAS v ROMNEY: Seeking Indictments of Bain Cap & GSachs [/font]
There are over 100 online articles written about our eToys related cases, where Paul Traub, Barry Gold, the Traub Bonacquist & Fox ("TBF"
law firm, along with Tom Petters and Marc Dreier Ponzi's, haven't been investigated and/or prosecuted, because Goldman Sachs, Bain Capital and Mitt Romney benefited from massive billion dollar frauds.
Colm Connolly was the Delaware United States Attorney, who was partners in the crimes. Minnesota Assistant U.S. Attorney James Lackner had a brother (Marty) who was a feeder fund to Petters Ponzi. Larry (Reservitz) Reynolds was giving these fraudsters all my information, because he raided my files at night, sitting only 25 feet away from me, at another entity.
Larry Reynolds confessed laundering $12 Billion for Tom Petters Ponzi, while inside Witness Protection Program.
Marty Lackner, involved in Petters, while brother of head of DOJ's Criminal Division J. Lackner
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxwas suicided!
Just how many serious, million to one shot, Wall Street related crimes must there be to transpire, before the
Department of Justice admits it made mistakes and does something about it. Thus far, it is a miracle that yours truly isn't dead yet, as there are many untimely homicides in this case (eToys shareholder Robert Alber had to shoot/kill career criminal Michael Sesseyoff and Jack Wheeler wound up dead in a dump after going to Colm Connolly's office building).
When moi reported much of these very large crimes and issues of bad federal agents to the Public Corruption Task Force in Los Angeles, that special unit was SHUT Down and (reportedly) career federal prosecutors were threatened to keep their mouths shut - Or Else! (See my filed complaint - Time Stamped - HERE and Los Angeles Times "Shake-up roils federal prosecutors"
Erich Holder had nothing to hide about this case, as most of it happened and/or began, during GW Bush's administrations watch; but then USAG Eric Holder's staff went out of their way to bury the case too.
When President Obama was elected, I jumped for joy. And when he put in another non white as the head of the Department of Justice there was the hope that justice might finally come; but it didn't.
Dan Froomkin points out that both Holder and even Ben Bernanke talked a tough game name; but they no longer have substance to their banter, as Froomkin concludes that both former USAG Eric Holder and Fed man Ben Bernanke could have done more to assure investigations and/or prosecutions against Wall Street fraudsters;

Bernie Sanders Doesn't Need Billions of $ and Main Stream Media: Hillary & GOP Does
We are seeing not just one, but several, revolutionary dynamics, combining into a perfect storm of events long overdue. Both Hillary's campaign and the main stream media barks and banters that Bernie Sanders will never get the media attention he needs, without SuperPacs. Thus they pan him, belittle us who support him and call him a gadfly.
HRC's camp and the main stream media are full of chit - greatly!
[br]
[center]
[/center]
Everyone should read the non main stream researchers items looking into the facts of Bernies Sanders records on the issues. He is, much more than most (including HRC and/or ANY Repug), on the correct side of civil rights issues.
See Alternet's item "20 Examples of Bernie Sanders' Powerful Record on Civil and Human Rights Since the 1950s".
Alternet goes on to state, that from the 1950's, Sanders has fought for Civil Rights and even against Police Violence.
Trump (and/or any other GOP POTUS wannabe) and/or Hillary and all the other "candidates", along with the main stream media, are the ones who need the millions, tens of millions, hundreds of millions and eventual 2 head to head persons needing Billions of dollars - in an effort to "convince" you they are "your" candidate.
Do you really need any convincing that Bernie Sanders is a man of the People?
REALLY!
Main stream media is battling the wolves and sharks feeding upon their carcasses. Papers are now a dinosaur draconian, as is main stream media (if you really thought about it). As a matter of fact, without knowing of the particular article in question, there's an "Other Words" piece that is titled "Mainstream media blues" and it actually states papers are dying and main stream is fighting the wolves at the door.
We (You and Me) along with the potential candidates - are being played.
It is the media who decides what they provide us. And it is also the media that depends on us watching, to get more money from the candidates (at top rack rate dollars - same price to every candidate - as a matter of Law).
Media is dying; because you and I - WE - via social networks, ARE the Real News. When main stream provides an item (almost always propaganda) don't you and I usually go online, to see what the "real" facts are?
Do we trust the main stream media?
I can't really believe one needs to ask that question. All you have to do is look at the polls that had Bernie favored over Hillary by 2 to 1 margins (or better); but yet they come out saying HRC won.
Bull Chit! And we ain't buying it any more.
Enigmatically and inexorably, DWS and HRC may run a very close race with Bernie Sanders; because they are entrenched and people will get worn down by the banter
- IF WE LISTEN TO THE BULL CHIT.
However, already, stars are jumping ship (as the Youtube video about Bill Maher details), there are many out there who are quickly coming out and stating Sanders can win.
At the end of the day, Bernie Sanders is electable, because he has the votes, he has always been on the right side of most of the issues; and we have social media that does NOT need billions of dollars to get us focused.
Yes, Facebook and others can rig the game. Moi formed a group titled 1 Million by Plus 1, Bernie Sanders for President. As soon as that group started up to go viral, FB shut down. Now there's a 100,000 person march in Washington, D.C. for Bernie Sanders - movement. Every time they start to go viral, they are shut down by FB and lose all their registrations.
We ARE the real news and We ARE the real votes. Bernie Sanders Doesn't Need Billions of $ and Main Stream Media: Hillary & GOP Does. And even with those huge amounts of monies, they can only succeed, if we listen to the babbling banter and obfuscating, reinforcing Bull Chit...
I suggest you simply stop them in their tracks and don't listen to them!

Bernie Sanders [/font] [font size=5]Doesn't Need Billions of $,
nor does his campaign need the Main Stream Media:
Hillary & the Republicans Do
- and here's why
[/font][/center]
This pic above, is from a recent Raw Story article (here) about Sanders pushing through Progressive agendas in an unusual manner that will most definitely surprise you.
As the article notes many of Bernie Sanders successes, even from the time where he was an "Independent" Mayor of Vermont (who doubled the voter turnout - even way back then) are never touted by the Senator.
In other words, others talk about getting things done, while Senators Sanders was doing many things!
Here's a list from the Raw Story article "Bernie Sanders’ record of pushing through major reforms will, surprise you", pointing out just a few of the things Bernie Sanders has accomplished;
[font size= 4 color=red]C[/font]orporate Crime Accountability (February 1995): A Sanders amendment to the Victims Justice Act of 1995 required “offenders who are convicted of fraud and other white-collar crimes to give notice to victims and other persons in cases where there are multiple victims eligible to receive restitution.”
[font size= 4 color=red]S[/font]aving Money, for Colleges and Taxpayers (April 1998): In an amendment to H.R. 6, the Higher Education Amendments of 1998, Sanders made a change to the law that allowed the Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education to make competitive grants available to colleges and universities that cooperated to reduce costs through joint purchases of goods and services.
[font size= 4 color=red]H[/font]olding IRS Accountable, Protecting Pensions (July 2002): Sanders’ amendment to the Treasury and General Government Appropriations Act of 2003 stopped the IRS from being able to use funds that “violate current pension age discrimination laws.” Although he faced stiff GOP opposition, his amendment still succeeded along a 308 to 121 vote.
Expanding Free Health Care (November 2001): You wouldn’t think Republicans would agree to an expansion of funds for community health centers, which provide some free services. But Sanders was able to win a $100 million increase in funding with an amendment.
[font size= 4 color=red]G[/font]etting Tough On Child Labor (July 2001): A Sanders amendment to the general appropriations bill prohibited the importation of goods made with child labor.

Senator Sanders Never Runs a Negative Campaign
EVER!
[/font][/center]
It is a fact that Senator Sanders has never run a negative campaign; and he's not about to start now. Sure, he can't stop other groups from doing what they will and what they'll say... who can!
Be that as it may, Bernie Sanders is a man of the people. He is form Veterans, Equal Rights, Higher Wages, Taxing the elite rich, fixing Wall Street, stopping corruption and ...
he doesn't take any money from the wrong people, as is just proved by him donating the hedge funds guys money to HIV cause.
We can make this a perfect storm, proving that WE (you and me) are the REAL News. Main stream is lame stream. Washington, D.C. is broken; and Bernie Sanders will surely do his best to fix that and much more.
