It is extremely important, for all fellow combatants that are geared up against the Tea'd veiled agendas; to realize what is at stake here. Our economy was nearly destroyed by the previous, nefarious and duplicitous Administration. President Obama's teams have accomplished a remarkable job recovering from their debacle. Doing so in such well rounded fashion; that the GOP machine believes it is time - again - to scoff at progressive reforms or agencies oversight of their bilking frenzy.

Beyond CDO's, swaps, longs and shorts; there was a $700 Billion dollar bailout for GM, Chrysler and AIG, among many other institutions. Cerberus is a right wing machine owned by Steve Feinberg and managed by the likes of Dan Quayle; with clients such as Rumsfeld (see WikiPedia details ( here)). Cerberus owned the lion share of GMAC and Chrysler and is credited in the Wikipedia thread as having direct ties/association to feeder funds related to and benefiting from the Madoff Ponzi scheme.

Systemic and incestuous schemes to fleece America involves cronyism and corruption of our legal systems We have almost all major decisions pertaining to public entities; finding their way into the DE Chancery and Bankruptcy Courts. From WaMu, Finova, Levitz, eToys and many others; there are rulings contrary to the law on a regular basis. UCLA Law Professor Lynn LoPucki wrote a book ( here) entitled "Courting Failure" How Competition for Big Cases is Corrupting the Bankruptcy Courts. Professor LoPucki was before Congress in 2009 ( here) with such venerated persons as Ralph Nader. At this time Professor LoPucki informed Congress of "Routine Illegality" - denoting an empirical study documenting how federal judges routinely make decisions contrary to the law to feed the "good ole boys network".



The fact of the matter remains, the previous Administration gave white collar criminals, their counsels and others unfettered ability to fleece America with reckless abandon. We all have read the story where the SEC section head in charge of Madoff issues; benefited from Madoff's scheme. They have apologized now, but where is the real investigation into the ethics violations that transpired. How can a scheme such as his transpire for a decade without federal scrutiny?

In the Tom Petters Ponzi scheme, he was able to get away with his $40 billion plus for a decade as well. One of the cohorts in Petters scheme was Larry Reynolds (Reservitz). Reynolds was in the Witness Protection Program (WISTEC) and under investigation by the IRS (MN Biz Journal story ( here)); yet he was able to get away with laundering over $12 billion dollars for 10 years. A brother of a MN US Attorney was involved as well, but his story will never be heard; he mysteriously hanged himself at 40 some years of age, with wife and 2 kids but left no note (see Public Radio story ( here)).



Inexplicably, we have an abundance of watchdog groups within the federal system of justice; but they are worthless. There's the OIG (Office of Inspector General), the OGE (Office of Government Ethics), the OPR (Office of Professional Responsibility), President's Bush Corporate Fraud Task Force (a real joke we will explain later). The OSC (Office of Special Counsel) and many more; including the FBI, SEC, the EOUST (Exec Office of US Trustees) and the Public Integrity Section.

If you look at what our billions of dollars in fundings get us with these police; it is deplorable. Here at the most recent Public Integrity Section report (2009); their noteworthy cases denoted to Congress are absurd. Their charts don't even make sense. (Please see 2009 report to Congress ( here)). On page 63 it states Federal officials Charged 21 - Convicted 22 (someone must have went in with his buddy); and awaiting trial 10. The real tell tale chart is page 52 - the Progress chart. In 1990, they prosecuted 615 cases, in 1991 803, in 2009 (pg 53) only 425. If you look at the cases reported upon, there are many about $1000 fine on a judge, Mayberry was given a 2 year probation and $2,500 fine. Celey was given 12 months of probation and 100 hours of community service. This is what they find most important to report to Congress? Yet Cecelia Grimes is caught destroying evidence in a public corruption investigation. She gets 3 year probation and a $3,000 fine. GET REAL



Then you have the OSC (Office of Special Counsel) - where federal whistle blowers go to report frauds. The head of the OSC (Scott Bloch) had his office and home raided by the FBI for destroying case files (see Wikipedia details ( Here)). Banter and hyperbole abound, as various parties, including the Judge; argue over, whether or not, Scott Blotch should serve one month in Prison or probation. Frankly Scarlet - we don't give a Dam. It is not about the time he serves. What case files did he destroy. We had a case before him ourselves; what happened to the files?



Those in charge of protecting America and its citizenry have found it most lucrative to join the fray. In this modern day of Global business; even Mitt Romney has the bulk of his fortunes Off Shore funds in Bermuda (see LA Times story ( here)). Romney's camp claims these are NOT tax shelters; yet the man who set up SanKaty in Bermuda for Romney said no one works there except lawyers. In 2008, Romney gave an oath that his net worth was only $250 million; yet SanKaty alone has billions off shore and he is the sole owner. He proffered a custom made Presidential Campaign Finance Form and stated his money was in a "Blind Family Trust" since 2003; and he really has no idea how much is there. Beyond the chuckle you now have, you must also bare in mind, Romney has made millions upon millions from the bankrupt entities. Bain now owns Toys R Us, that acquired eToys, Kay Bee Toys, FAO Schwartz; all through bankruptcy court. Today, eToys still remains stolen property and Goldman Sachs with their attorneys have committed serious acts of fraud and perjury; confessing to supplication of false affidavits accomplishing fraud on the court.

But there are no investigations of Goldman Sachs or Bain. When the Deputy Director of the Dept of Justice sent us an email promising to halt the skullduggery in the eToys and Kay Bee Toys fraud cases; another rogue element within the Dept of Justice just said no. After this whistle blower rec'd the email below from DOJ EOUST Director in Washington DC - he resigned and joined the pirates horde ( here)>. 1st Friedman became a Director at Bear Sterns ( see Linkedin ( here)). Then he engaged in a joint venture with forming Bankruptcy Insurance Solutions with Bader Co. We are about to expose IRS and other schemes related to the Bader case in the near future; but still keep a copy of his Dept of Justice broken promises email to read often.

Subject: RE: Item in the record today



After that promise to rectify and DOJ Director Lawrence Friedman's subsequent resignation; the removed Region 3 US Trustee (Roberta DeAngelis) was promoted to the post of Acting General Counsel, in charge of her own investigation. This fact was withheld from the record until a federal agent blew the whistle several years later (see the proof that nothing on such was disclosed until 3 years later by the US Trustee Press release ( here)). A series of events transpired including threats against us and an eToys shareholder by Jack Abramoff's associate. Abramoff had tried to seize control of the Region 3 US Trustee's office over DE. As DE bankrutpcy court handles millions and billions of dollars of national cases; supplying "good ole boy" networks with millions upon millions in shark fest legal fees. (See Congress's emails germane to Abramoff, specifically page 12 of the PDF ( here)).

When it was discovered that Goldman Sachs attorney was guilty of Non-disclosure of serious Conflicts of Interest that fostered over 100 organized criminal acts and hundreds of millions of dollars in frauds on multiple cases, in multiple states and over many years; this was reported to the Dept of Justice Corruption Unit and President Bush Corporate Fraud Task Force in central CA Los Angeles. Then US Attorney Debra Yang was in charge of the CFTF. Instead of initiating an investigation, she took a job at Gibson Dunn with a puported bonus of in excess of $1 million. We reported this fact and others to various federal agencies, including DOJ, SEC and OSC. All scoffed at the notion that Debra Yang did anything specious. Yet Los Angeles Mayor Villaraigosa nominated Yang to a vacancy on the Los Angeles Police Commission. Where Yang became embroiled in a contraversy in which it was alleged she had a conflict of interest because she used her position as Commissioner to attempt improper influence on the LAPD on behalf of her client (see WikiPedia report ( here)).



DOJ Cover UP continues as US Attorney threatens career Asst USA's



Debra Yang's successor to the central CA US Attorney's office - was US Attorney Tom O'Brien. Not a lawyer by trade; he was an armed services Pilot. He too, was became enticed to engage in the cover up by contraversy. After our pleadings to Tom O'Brien and the official Clocked Stamp copy of our proof of public corruption. Combined with the documentation and facts that Goldman Sachs DE Attorney had confessed to acts of Perjury that had accomplished fraud on the court. It was also noted the serious Dept of Justice conflicts of interest of Roberta DeAngelis and the fact that the DE US Attorney had his own ethical bad faith endeavors. The DE US Attorney Colm Connolly was a partner with Goldman SAchs and Bain's law firm in DE (www.MNAT.com ). Not only was he a partner, he actually was a partner at a specious time, in the year 2001 - the very same time that the perjury and fraud began (see his federal resume ( here)). It was an ethical mandate for DE US Attorney Colm Connolly to disclose this serious conflict of interest issue. At the barest of minimums he should have either appointed an independent special prosecutor and/or referred the case to the Public Integrity Section. Failure to do such was a serious Breach of Fiduciary duty and betrayal of the public's trust; defying his oath of office to defend our Laws and Constitution from enemies foreign and Domestic! Instead of initiating an investigation and prosecution. central CA US Attorney Tom O'Brien jumped on the Cover Up train and did the inexplicable. During a routine staff meeting USA O'Brien walked into the office and lambasted everyone; he summarily shut down the Public Corruption Unit (sealing the cover up). Please see the Los Angeles Times story by reporter Scott Glover ( here)). Not only did he shut down the Public Corruption Unit. USA Tom O'Brien had the unmitigated gall to actually threaten career Asst US Attorneys to keep their mouths shut - or Else - as to the real reasons why the unit was disbanded. He and interim AG MuKasey told the press and public that the Public Corruption Unit was shut down because there were no public corruption cases to prosecute. They must be working with the same empirical charts that the Public Integrity Section denotes!



What the evidence shows, is clear and convincing proof of those charged with protecting us from bad faith dealings; usually take discretion over valor by giving into temptation and joining the lucrative fray.

There's so much money at stake here, that the Republican machine is stopping at nothing to find a way to halt Elizabeth Warren's appointment as head of the Consumer Fraud Protection Burea. It is the one entity they do not have control of; and as such - they are being deprived of their sleep at night or having nightmares. Especially given the fact that Elizabeth Warren is not only an attorney who cannot be bribed by them; Warren also is an expert in the Bankruptcy Code & Rule of law. So the games of corruption within their lucrative federal empire of fleecing is in serious jeopardy.

The syndicated columnist Paul Krugman gives an excellent reflection on the real issues at hand pertaining to Elizabeth Warren and the attacks of the GOP. As stated in the Seattle Times story;

"The GOP's cynical attack on Elizabeth Warren" columnist Paul Krugman denotes concerning the character of Warren; "The fact that she's so well qualified is, of course, the reason she's being attacked so fiercely. Nothing could be worse, from the point of view of bankers and the politicians who serve them, than to have consumers protected by someone who knows what she's doing and has the personal credibility to stand up to pressure". Paul Krugman concludes correctly - that the Administration should go toe to toe; "By the sheer craziness of their attacks on Warren, however, Republicans are offering the administration a perfect opportunity to revive the debate over financial reform, not to mention highlighting exactly who's really in Wall Street's pocket these days. And that's an opportunity the White House should welcome"



At the heart of the GOP's chest, are their wallets. That is what the live for. It is where the corruption comes from - MONEY! This culture war is the most significant issue of our times. They seek to destroy Unions, halt Health Care and stop saints such as Elizabeth Warren; because they cannot bribe her. She is their nightmare, a public servant on a mission to actually make a difference; who also has massive public support. Please make sure our support does not wane, falter or become feint of heart for any reason.

As per the discussion in the comments section. We are providing a Petition to support Elizabeth Warren as head of CFPB. This will give many people sleepless nights. Of those involved in the organized criminal pursuits with Goldman Sachs - if the Petition should take off. Just as bad as the GOP fear of Elizabeth Warren is the fact that she will be made publicly aware of the evidences in our various cases; that the raging bull white collar fraudsters and corrupt federal agents have worked so arduously to keep out of the public's scrutiny.

Wonderful comment at the Petition site Erika Frensley

We all, the consumers, the middle class, the lower class, need someone with Elizabeth Warren's knowledge, skill, guts, and integrity to stand up for us. We're tired of being fleeced by the rich and by corporate America, and Ms. Warren is a public servant that will fight for us, 90% of America, against the 10% that defraud and steal from us.



In conclusion I must say, anything that is so strong = as to muster massive GOP unity seeking to defeat; deserves our equal unity of spirit to assure. We have the raging bull by the nose ring and it is high time to make sure our grip is stengthened. The bull needs to go where we desire it to be. The shortsighted, selfish indulgence of the GOP cronyism, corruption and destruction of our American economy and its Bull - must be put out to pasture!

Let's hit em where it hurts guys and gals - in their wallets!
