Hillary Clinton Overcharging Poorest Donors Repeatedly Charging Their Bank And Credit Cards


Hillary Clinton

A new report reveals U.S. presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has been overcharging her poorest campaign donors. Clinton is running a scam in repeatedly charging the cards of her poorest donors small amounts, but it exceeds the agreed upon financial donation. The Observer reported, "Hillary Clinton’s campaign is stealing from her poorest supporters by purposefully and repeatedly overcharging them after they make what’s supposed to be a one-time small donation through her official campaign website."  

For more on Hillary Clinton's money hungry ways please watch the documentary Clinton Cash. Additionally, please read the article "Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan Sends Out Dire Warning About Obama Administration ‘Crazies’ Spending America Into Bankruptcy" regarding the $6 billion dollars that went missing from the U.S. State Department while Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State.


Hillary Clinton eating some of her favorite foods: pork chops on a stick, a deep fried Snickers chocolate bar and a sugary lemonade drink

Clinton's soul is so full of greed for money and power. It's appalling. How much is enough. If she had all the money in the world she still wouldn't be satisfied. She's ripped off the U.S. taxpayers. She's ripped off several nations in Africa at the expense of poor people. She's ripped off Haitian earthquake victims who are starving, living in poverty and squalor, while Clinton is choking down pork chops on a stick in the most undignified manner and coughing her head off from that rich diet messing with her arteries and blooding clot issues. 

God doesn't like ugly. Considering Clinton's poor health coupled with her advanced age, she's no spring chicken. It's astonishing all the dirty money Clinton has accumulated, which she can't even spend all of at her age. Undoubtedly, she will leave the dirty money to her daughter and grandchildren. However, it's blood money and will do them no good. Inheriting money like that is not a blessing. You need to give your victims back the money you stole from them.

Exclusive: Hillary Clinton Campaign Systematically Overcharging Poorest Donors

Wells Fargo fraud department inundated with calls from low-income Clinton supporters reporting repeated unauthorized charges

09/15/16 2:35pm - Hillary for America processed a total of $94 in unauthorized charges to Carol Mahre’s US Bank account. This follows a pattern in which unwitting donors are charged multiple times, but always for a total of less than $100, which is a key trigger point for banks’ internal action systems. Hillary Clinton’s campaign is stealing from her poorest supporters by purposefully and repeatedly overcharging them after they make what’s supposed to be a one-time small donation through her official campaign website, multiple sources tell the Observer. 

The overcharges are occurring so often that the fraud department at one of the nation’s biggest banks receives up to 100 phone calls a day from Clinton’s small donors asking for refunds for unauthorized charges to their bankcards made by Clinton’s campaign. One elderly Clinton donor, who has been a victim of this fraud scheme, has filed a complaint with her state’s attorney general and a representative from the office told her that they had forwarded her case to the Federal Election Commission. 

“We get up to a hundred calls a day from Hillary’s low-income supporters complaining about multiple unauthorized charges,” a source, who asked to remain anonymous for fear of job security, from the Wells Fargo fraud department told the Observer. The source claims that the Clinton campaign has been pulling this stunt since Spring of this year. The Hillary for America campaign will overcharge small donors by repeatedly charging small amounts such as $20 to the bankcards of donors who made a one-time donation. However, the Clinton campaign strategically doesn’t overcharge these donors $100 or more because the bank would then be obligated to investigate the fraud. 

“We don’t investigate fraudulent charges unless they are over $100,” the fraud specialist explained. “The Clinton campaign knows this, that’s why we don’t see any charges over the $100 amount, they’ll stop the charges just below $100. We’ll see her campaign overcharge donors by $20, $40 or $60 but never more than $100.” The source, who has worked for Wells Fargo for over 10 years, said that the total amount they refund customers on a daily basis who have been overcharged by Clinton’s campaign “varies” but the bank usually issues refunds that total between $700 and $1,200 per day...

New Financial Crisis Hits America Confirming Previous Site Claims


Barack Obama 

Throughout the tenure of U.S. President Barack Obama, from day one to the present, the Judiciary Report has advocated austerity in government spending, a modest tax hike on the rich and an increase manufacturing (Ben Bernake Didn't See The Financial Crisis Coming) to counteract and reverse the 2008 financial crisis that happened due to the damaging policies of former Commander-in-Chief, George W. Bush (How George Bush Destroyed The U.S. Economy). However, Obama did the exact opposite and to America's detriment.

Under the influence of incompetent, mentally ill Hollywood, who’ve spend more time in the White House than any other group combined, Obama used the entertainment industry’s motto of “you’ve got to spend money to make money” and “buy your way out of trouble.” And so, the Obama Administration splashed the cash. Today we see the end result of that folly. America is deeper in debt than it has ever been in the nation’s entire 400-year history. America’s national debt is approaching $19 trillion dollars.

Under Obama’s record spending, he has set in motion what is on track to cause the financial collapse of the federal government. On its current course, a time is coming when there will not be enough money to keep the federal government afloat and it will financially collapse.

To make matters worse, some of Obama’s campaign donors and cronies have looted the U.S. treasury, via shady backend deals that have made them wealthy at the expense of the American taxpayers. They were not entitled to this money. More constructive things could have been done with said stolen funds to benefit the nation, rather than a group of greedy, unpatriotic, thieving scoundrels.

The U.S. stock market is completely unstable, experiencing rollercoaster type activity and massive declines that wiped away $2.3 trillion dollars in one year. America’s top companies are in decline. Walmart, a top grossing American company, is closing 269 stores domestically and worldwide, which will result in 16,000 people losing their jobs. Apple is experiencing serious stock and sales declines.

Other companies in the tech sector, such as Oracle, HP, Twitter and Facebook are also experiencing sales and stock declines. Apple has lost $44.7 billion dollars in value, as sales have weakened.

American banks Citigroup, Bank of America, Wells Fargo and JP Morgan Chase have all lost billions of dollars in value. Foreclosures are also up again in America, revealing the government has not properly addressed the financial and mortgage crisis of 2008 that is rebooting itself and causing misery among homeowners.

Food prices in America are high. I’ve discovered food prices in Britain are on average 30% lower than America. Every American I know is complaining about food prices. It’s not a good sign when working class people can’t afford food. That is a tell tale sign the economy is not in a good way. It also necessitates the need for more food stamps to prevent people from going hungry, which means the government is underwriting that as well, due to the administration's poor handling of the economy.

Unemployment is up. However, reports indicate the Obama Administration has been falsifying numbers and removing millions of unemployed people from national financial data to give a false impression. These millions are incorrectly branded individuals who have given up on finding a job. However, they are still among the unemployed and should be included in the official tally to correctly gauge the financial problems facing the nation. How do you possibly fix a problem you refuse to acknowledge exists.

The corruption and costly illegal spying by the U.S. government has reached an all time high. Obama is blanket spying on the American people, which is unconscionable and perverse. Obama is also illegally spying on Congress to great degrees, which is criminal. Where are the famed "checks and balances" and the "separation of powers" when the president is behaving like a dictator in spying on everyone and trying to control everything.

America is supposed to have three branches of government - executive (president), legislative (Congress) and the judicial (courts). Right now, America only has one, the executive branch, that is spying on, browbeating, bullying and coercing the other two branches into submission and corruption...and to terrible economic results.

During Obama’s final State of the Union Address last week, the president stated America’s military is the most advanced in the world, but he is completely wrong. The Chinese military is far more technologically advanced. There was an incident that revealed the Chinese military has become far superior in the technological realm.

The U.S. Navy was conducting a military exercise in the Pacific Ocean using a technologically advanced American submarine. However, a Chinese submarine with even greater technological capabilities surfaced right beside the American sub and went completely undetected until the U.S. military literally saw it with their own eyes above water. That's just a fraction of what their technology can do. China has also made great strides in space weaponry as well.

America is also not self sustaining. China is a fully functional economy and nation in every aspect, producing all the food and technology it needs. America does not produce even ½ the food the nation consumes or the majority of the electronics the country uses. Most electronics in America comes from China, which became a global force in the past 5-years due to exemplary manufacturing standards that generated trillions in revenues. Fair is fair. They made the products and deserved to be paid for them. I'm not complaining, as I use Chinese products all the time. The point I'm trying to make is America does not occupy the same place it once did in the world and the government refusing to realize that will not help the nation progress.

The U.S. government is spending so much time, manpower and money on fruitless wars in the Middle East, the nation cannot afford to respond appropriately if something truly horrible happens on a global scale. It is a mass of wasted time, money and resources. All the money going into these wars could have greatly improved America's businesses, schools, homes and general infrastructure, making the country stronger.  

There are many imbalances in the U.S. government and economy that need to be corrected. Yet the Obama Administration is in denial and has not remedied the serious problems facing America. You don’t fix problems by covering them up and proverbially "kicking the can down the road" to the next administration, as Bush did and Obama is doing. It just results in a bigger mess and greater problems eroding the nation.

Obama has and continues to devote an extraordinary amount of time in dogmatic, obsessive and alarming bids at destroying his perceived enemies, conservatives, than he does America's enemies, ISIS. It's sad that Obama has spent more time attacking conservatives and Christians in America than he has ISIS.

Americans had to raise a stink for Obama to even admit the terrorist attack on San Bernardino, California this past December was terrorism (Obama Administration Being Slammed By Americans For Refusing To Label San Bernardino Killings Terrorism). When the wave of bad publicity hit him, he finally admitted it.

Meanwhile, reports keep surfacing that Obama continues to use federal agencies like the IRS to financially abuse and attack conservatives and Christians in America. Take a look at Obama's interviews and press clippings over the past year. The majority of his comments are devoted to attacking conservatives, who bear in mind, are Americans. It simply doesn't look right.

A recession worse than 2008 is coming

January 15, 2016 - The S&P 500 has begun 2016 with its worst performance ever. This has prompted Wall Street apologists to come out in full force and try to explain why the chaos in global currencies and equities will not be a repeat of 2008. Nor do they want investors to believe this environment is commensurate with the dot-com bubble bursting. They claim the current turmoil in China is not even comparable to the 1997 Asian debt crisis.

Indeed, the unscrupulous individuals that dominate financial institutions and governments seldom predict a down-tick on Wall Street, so don't expect them to warn of the impending global recession and market mayhem. But a recession has occurred in the U.S. about every five years, on average, since the end of WWII; and it has been seven years since the last one — we are overdue.

Most importantly, the average market drop during the peak to trough of the last 6 recessions has been 37 percent. That would take the S&P 500 down to 1,300; if this next recession were to be just of the average variety. But this one will be worse...
 

The uninvited guest: Chinese sub pops up in middle of U.S. Navy exercise, leaving military chiefs red-faced

Last updated at 00:13 10 November 2007 - When the U.S. Navy deploys a battle fleet on exercises, it takes the security of its aircraft carriers very seriously indeed. At least a dozen warships provide a physical guard while the technical wizardry of the world's only military superpower offers an invisible shield to detect and deter any intruders.

That is the theory. Or, rather, was the theory. American military chiefs have been left dumbstruck by an undetected Chinese submarine popping up at the heart of a recent Pacific exercise and close to the vast U.S.S. Kitty Hawk - a 1,000ft supercarrier with 4,500 personnel on board. By the time it surfaced the 160ft Song Class diesel-electric attack submarine is understood to have sailed within viable range for launching torpedoes or missiles at the carrier.

According to senior Nato officials the incident caused consternation in the U.S. Navy.  The Americans had no idea China's fast-growing submarine fleet had reached such a level of sophistication, or that it posed such a threat. One Nato figure said the effect was "as big a shock as the Russians launching Sputnik" - a reference to the Soviet Union's first orbiting satellite in 1957 which marked the start of the space age. The incident, which took place in the ocean between southern Japan and Taiwan, is a major embarrassment for the Pentagon...
 

Wal-Mart to shutter 269 stores, 154 of them in the US

Jan 15, 6:00 PM EST - NEW YORK (AP) -- Wal-Mart is doing some rare pruning. The world's largest retailer is closing 269 stores, including 154 in the U.S. that includes all of its locations under its smallest-format concept store called Wal-Mart Express. The other big chunk is in its challenging Brazilian market.

The stores being shuttered account for a fraction of the company's 11,000 stores worldwide and less than 1 percent of its global revenue. Wal-Mart Stores Inc. said the store closures will affect 16,000 workers, 10,000 of them in the U.S. Its global workforce is 2.2 million, 1.4 million in the U.S. alone. The store closures will start at the end of the month...
 

Market crash robs $2.3 trillion from investors

7:22 p.m. EST January 15, 2016 - The stock market rout is starting to get really expensive — destroying $2.3 trillion from the market's top last year and $1.5 trillion in net wealth just this year. The giant companies that predominantly populate the Standard & Poor's 500 have fallen an average of 8.9% this year — which, when translated into dollars, is real money. Real big money. The S&P 500 is down 8% this year already — including another 2.2% Friday — in what's been the worst start to a year ever. Since the market peak on May 21, 2015, the market has declined 11.7%.

The biggest wealth destroyers in the S&P 500 from the high have been gadget maker Apple (AAPL), pipeline company Kinder Morgan (KMI) and corporate software company Oracle (ORCL) — crushing $218 billion, $63.5 billion and $49.8 billion in market value, respectively, from the May 21, 2015, top.

U.S. Foreclosures Spike Again Indicating Trouble In The Financial Sector


U.S. President Barack Obama

As much as the Obama administration is touting its allegedly robust and growing economy, the numbers are stating something quite different. Manufacturing is down and the economy did not grow at the rate Wall Street predicted.  Millions of Americans are still unemployed, with many dropped from the official national unemployment count to give the appearance of better economic numbers.

Today it has been reported by mainstream news agency Reuters that U.S. bank foreclosures and repossessions have spiked to a 19-month high. During the month of May, 126,868 homes were reported as being in foreclosure, with the number rising. Most of these homes represents households with multiple individuals of all ages, which means millions of people are being negatively impacted by it. This indicates another emerging crisis the government needs to address. If things were as great with the economy as the administration states, foreclosures would not be spiking.

U.S. foreclosure activity up in May as bank repossessions rise.

Markets | Thu Jun 18, 2015 12:06am EDT - Bank repossessions rose again last month, driving overall U.S. foreclosure activity to a 19-month high on an annual basis, industry firm RealtyTrac said on Thursday. A total of 126,868 homes across the country were at some point in the foreclosure process in May, up 1 percent from April and up 16 percent from the same time last year, RealtyTrac said. Foreclosure activity includes foreclosure notices, scheduled auctions and bank repossessions.

Lenders reclaimed a total of 44,892 homes in May, down 1 percent from April but up 58 percent from a year ago. May was the third straight month of annual increases in bank repossessions, which remained far below the peak in September 2013 when lenders reclaimed 102,134 properties. Foreclosure starts were down 1 percent in May, but rose 4 percent from the same period last year, RealtyTrac said. Lenders started the foreclosure process on 51,414 properties last month...

Could More Cast Members Of 'Real Housewives Of Atlanta' Be Headed To Prison


Apollo Nida and Phaedra Parks

Atlanta, Georgia is a beautiful place. The homes are large and affordable, the landscaping is lovely and the stores plenty, making it easy for many to live like rock stars. However, among a certain set of famous people in Atlanta, things get very competitive, with some trying to outdo others in living a luxury lifestyle.

This is the case of "Real Housewives Of Atlanta" reality stars, but some have taken it too far, as in illegal territory. Many of the stars on the show are not rolling in money, as they would have you think. They're not broke, but they aren't rich either. However, one of the richest stars on the show made his money through criminal activity he kept quiet.

Apollo Nida, the husband of co-star, Phaedra Parks, grew tired of his lawyer girlfriend-turned-wife making more money than he does and embarked on an elaborate scheme to illegally make money. Nida opened 40 bank accounts via identity theft and stole over $3,000,000 in checks and fake auto loans. 


Apollo Nida's mugshot from 2009

It's is now being stated other members of the cast could be implicated in the scandal, among them Parks, but the reports in this regard have not been confirmed. Previously Parks was implicated in Nida's criminal activity that sent him to prison for 5-years as apart of an auto theft ring. Angela Stanton wrote a book labeling Parks the mastermind behind the auto theft ring Nida went to prison for. 

If Parks is involved in the criminal activity her husband has been nabbed in twice, this would be sad. Why go to university for 7-years to become a lawyer, gain the capability to earn a large income, then fall into a life of crime. That would be such a waste of a legal mind and years of hard work.  

One thing is for sure, Bravo will capitalize on the scandal, which will pull in ratings as people seek to get the inside scoop on the legal issues engulfing cast members. The public wants to know what happened in this case, but answers are not forthcoming from Parks, Nida or the rest of the cast.

FBI Admits They Inflated Their Mortgage Crisis Crackdown Rates

 

Outgoing FBI Director Robert S. Mueller busted in another lie the agency was forced to own up to in the press 

The FBI admits they have inflated their mortgage crisis crackdown rates regarding clamping down on problems in the system. This is another blow to their credibility. Millions of Americans have lost their homes with many still in danger of foreclosure and involuntary property auction.

Give credit where credit is due, I know people who've been helped by the Obama Administration mortgage modification programs and have been able to stay in their homes, paying a fraction of what they were previously remitting in payments, with the extra debt added to the tail end of their extended mortgage. There are also property tax assistance initiatives by the administration designed to assist people who are delinquent on property taxes, which could also trigger a foreclosure after a 2-3 years of non-payment.

The main problem with the system right now is what some banks put people through who attempt to obtain a mortgage modification. People are often told the documents they submitted to the banks by mail were not received (but mark my words, had you sent them a check in the mail, they would have received and cashed it pronto).

I know one woman who was told that several times, even though she used U.S. Postal Service and Fedex in other instances, who all confirmed in writing the items were received. We know it's not the mail carriers as many people are telling this same story.

The government needs to start applying pressure on banks that engage in this practice. Because if the government set up a consumer complaint website and asked people to submit mailing receipts regarding mortgage modification packages banks state they did not receive, there would be a flood of evidence to the contrary.

Mary J. Blige's Money Woes Continue As She Is Hit With A $900,000 Tax Lien

 

Mary J. Blige: I owe how much?
 
The money problems of R&B songstress, Mary J. Blige, continue to mount in a very noticeable way, as it is being report she has been hit with a $900,000 tax lien. This comes on the heels of lawsuits by two banks stating Blige owes millions of dollars in two loans she has defaulted on.

 
Mary J. Blige's costly house in New Jersey

The singer's sprawling 8-bedroom mansion in Saddle River, New Jersey, which she purchased for $12,300,000.Blige five years ago, continues to languish on the market with no buyers. Purchasing and maintaining such a large property (mortgage payments, taxes, insurance, cleaning, landscaping) has definitely drained Blige's resources, pushing her to the brink of financial collapse. If Blige can successfully sell her home, many of her money problems would be erased.

Newly Released Government Documents Reveal The FBI Made Plans To Kill Occupy Wall Street Organizers On Behalf Of Banks

 
Robert S. Mueller
 
The Guardian newspaper did a sensational piece this past weekend on the FBI stonewalling Freedom of Information Act requests and targeting Occupy Wall Street protestors. The Guardian stated regarding the Freedom of Information Act documents the FBI continually lied to requester about stating they did not exist, have been released and dispels, "what was once dismissed as paranoid fantasy" confirming people's worst fears that the FBI planned to murder Occupy Wall Street protestors on behalf of banks. From the Guardian:

"Banks sat down with FBI officials to pool information about OWS protesters harvested by private security; plans to crush Occupy events, planned for a month down the road, were made by the FBI – and offered to the representatives of the same organizations that the protests would target; and even threats of the assassination of OWS leaders by sniper fire.
 
Jason Leopold, at Truthout.org, who has sought similar documents for more than a year, reported that the FBI falsely asserted in response to his own FOIA requests that no documents related to its infiltration of Occupy Wall Street existed at all. But the release may be strategic: if you are an Occupy activist and see how your information is being sent to terrorism task forces and fusion centers, not to mention the 'longterm plans' of some redacted group to shoot you, this document is quite the deterrent."
 
The Guardian revealed something the Judiciary Report has maintained for years about the FBI, they work with the corporate sector against the average citizen in America, all in the name of profits, no matter how illegal the conduct (see: Aisha v. FBI lawsuit where the FBI criminally worked with Hollywood via aiding and abetting criminal copyright infringement, phone hacking, hacking and wiretapping for undue financial profit, while hiding Freedom of Information Act documents chronicling said criminality, at the expense of AIDS and cancer sufferers, who have been paying the price for the aforementioned industry's greed). 
  
According to the Guardian newspaper, the FBI organized the brutal crackdown on Occupy Wall Street protestors, in conjunction with Wall Street banks and CEOs, with options such as bankrupting and if need be using snipers to kill leaders of the peaceful protests across America. Yes, you read that right. The Constitution guarantees Americans the right to peacefully assemble and protest, but the FBI in another outrageous power grab placed the option of cold-blooded murder on the table, to protect the banks' profits.

The Judiciary Report is not ignorant of the law and knows protestors can be lawfully arrested, but murdering them is evil and unthinkable. That is domestic terrorism against U.S. citizens. The problem is the head of the FBI, Robert S. Mueller, by his own admission, does not apply the law evenly and believes he has "sovereign immunity" to commit any unthinkable, unconscionable crime he sees fit, even if it violates the Constitution and U.S. Code.

He believes Congress has given him the authority to spy on anyone in any manner he deems fit, criminally take people's assets he is not entitled to and redistribute it to his cronies and murder those that oppose his demonic agenda.

When you outrageously decide as the head of a law enforcement agency that murdering peaceful protestors by sniper fire is an option, just know the devil owns your soul. You should be excommunicated from the Catholic Church for being the spawn of the devil. You're worst than Hoover. You are also the worst thing that ever happened to America as time will illustrate, when Americans find out all the terrible things you've done.

The article by the Guardian also confirms what the Judiciary Report has stated for years regarding the FBI (Aisha v. FBI). The FBI lies in violation of the Freedom of Information Act, denying the existence of files it possesses, but does not want to release to the public, as they contain extensive criminal conduct on their part and or corporate entities they are trying to protect for financial reasons.

The first time I applied for files regarding me and the phone hacking scandal, which I broke first online in 2005, invoking the Freedom of Information Act as legal grounds to obtain said documents, the FBI lied in a letter to me stating the files didn't exist. However, one of my well-connected reputable sources informed me they were lying and a massive set of files regarding me, my very valuable copyrights and Madonna and Rupert Murdoch's criminal theft thereof, exists at the agency, in regular storage as well as being hidden in the FBI's secret file room, in another story I broke first that was later confirmed by the Boston Herald.

Therefore, I appealed the FBI's decision (to the agency). When I appealed, the FBI realized I knew more than I was telling them about their criminal obstruction of justice in the matter and finally admitted in writing the files exist, but wrote they are not releasing them to me unless I sue them. They believed I wouldn't sue, but I did. I sued them and they placed a judge on the case, Jose E. Martinez, who worked for the FBI/DOJ for many years and he corruptly and illegally asserted in a court ruling that the FBI has "sovereign immunity" and can break the law however it pleases, once again, refusing to release the documents.

Congress is unable to regulate the monster it created via Mueller at the FBI, as according to one of my reputable sources, he routinely blackmails and bullies them, via illegally obtained surveillance items. There is no way I could be head of state anywhere and have someone so evil as Mueller running loose. I'd have indicted him and placed on death row for the crimes against humanity he has been committing at the FBI. He has cost many people their lives in another (forthcoming) scandal.

This corruption cannot continue. The agency needs to be shutdown by Congress, because mark my words, a terrible scandal is coming regarding Mueller and the nation and the world will not tolerate anything less than a closure when they discover the full extent of what he has done at the FBI.
 
As stated in a previous article, Mueller has foolishly, inadvisably and lawlessly made serious enemies in the world of hardcore, ruthless people in different nations, who are counting the days until he is no longer head of the FBI. No other FBI director was so arrogant and wantonly reckless in this regard, being power mad and making that many enemies and of that caliber. Did you not think ahead to the time when you would be out of that job.

Revealed: how the FBI coordinated the crackdown on Occupy
 
Guardian.co.uk, Saturday 29 December 2012 09.58 EST - New documents prove what was once dismissed as paranoid fantasy: totally integrated corporate-state repression of dissent. Police used teargas to drive back protesters following an attempt by the Occupy supporters to shut down the city of Oakland. Photograph: Noah Berger/AP

It was more sophisticated than we had imagined: new documents show that the violent crackdown on Occupy last fall – so mystifying at the time – was not just coordinated at the level of the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security, and local police. The crackdown, which involved, as you may recall, violent arrests, group disruption, canister missiles to the skulls of protesters, people held in handcuffs so tight they were injured, people held in bondage till they were forced to wet or soil themselves –was coordinated with the big banks themselves.

The Partnership for Civil Justice Fund, in a groundbreaking scoop that should once more shame major US media outlets (why are nonprofits now some of the only entities in America left breaking major civil liberties news?), filed this request. The document – reproduced here in an easily searchable format – shows a terrifying network of coordinated DHS, FBI, police, regional fusion center, and private-sector activity so completely merged into one another that the monstrous whole is, in fact, one entity: in some cases, bearing a single name, the Domestic Security Alliance Council. And it reveals this merged entity to have one centrally planned, locally executed mission. The documents, in short, show the cops and DHS working for and with banks to target, arrest, and politically disable peaceful American citizens.

The documents, released after long delay in the week between Christmas and New Year, show a nationwide meta-plot unfolding in city after city in an Orwellian world: six American universities are sites where campus police funneled information about students involved with OWS to the FBI, with the administrations' knowledge (p51); banks sat down with FBI officials to pool information about OWS protesters harvested by private security; plans to crush Occupy events, planned for a month down the road, were made by the FBI – and offered to the representatives of the same organizations that the protests would target; and even threats of the assassination of OWS leaders by sniper fire – by whom? Where? – now remain redacted and undisclosed to those American citizens in danger, contrary to standard FBI practice to inform the person concerned when there is a threat against a political leader (p61).

As Mara Verheyden-Hilliard, executive director of the PCJF, put it, the documents show that from the start, the FBI – though it acknowledges Occupy movement as being, in fact, a peaceful organization – nonetheless designated OWS repeatedly as a "terrorist threat":

"FBI documents just obtained by the Partnership for Civil Justice Fund (PCJF) … reveal that from its inception, the FBI treated the Occupy movement as a potential criminal and terrorist threat … The PCJF has obtained heavily redacted documents showing that FBI offices and agents around the country were in high gear conducting surveillance against the movement even as early as August 2011, a month prior to the establishment of the OWS encampment in Zuccotti Park and other Occupy actions around the country."

Verheyden-Hilliard points out the close partnering of banks, the New York Stock Exchange and at least one local Federal Reserve with the FBI and DHS, and calls it "police-statism": "This production [of documents], which we believe is just the tip of the iceberg, is a window into the nationwide scope of the FBI's surveillance, monitoring, and reporting on peaceful protestors organizing with the Occupy movement … These documents also show these federal agencies functioning as a de facto intelligence arm of Wall Street and Corporate America."

The documents show stunning range: in Denver, Colorado, that branch of the FBI and a "Bank Fraud Working Group" met in November 2011 – during the Occupy protests – to surveil the group. The Federal Reserve of Richmond, Virginia had its own private security surveilling Occupy Tampa and Tampa Veterans for Peace and passing privately-collected information on activists back to the Richmond FBI, which, in turn, categorized OWS activities under its "domestic terrorism" unit.

The Anchorage, Alaska "terrorism task force" was watching Occupy Anchorage. The Jackson, Michigan "joint terrorism task force" was issuing a "counterterrorism preparedness alert" about the ill-organized grandmas and college sophomores in Occupy there. Also in Jackson, Michigan, the FBI and the "Bank Security Group" – multiple private banks – met to discuss the reaction to "National Bad Bank Sit-in Day" (the response was violent, as you may recall). The Virginia FBI sent that state's Occupy members' details to the Virginia terrorism fusion center. The Memphis FBI tracked OWS under its "joint terrorism task force" aegis, too. And so on, for over 100 pages.

Jason Leopold, at Truthout.org, who has sought similar documents for more than a year, reported that the FBI falsely asserted in response to his own FOIA requests that no documents related to its infiltration of Occupy Wall Street existed at all. But the release may be strategic: if you are an Occupy activist and see how your information is being sent to terrorism task forces and fusion centers, not to mention the "longterm plans" of some redacted group to shoot you, this document is quite the deterrent.

There is a new twist: the merger of the private sector, DHS and the FBI means that any of us can become WikiLeaks, a point that Julian Assange was trying to make in explaining the argument behind his recent book. The fusion of the tracking of money and the suppression of dissent means that a huge area of vulnerability in civil society – people's income streams and financial records – is now firmly in the hands of the banks, which are, in turn, now in the business of tracking your dissent.

Remember that only 10% of the money donated to WikiLeaks can be processed – because of
financial sector and DHS-sponsored targeting of PayPal data. With this merger, that crushing of one's personal or business financial freedom can happen to any of us. How messy, criminalizing and prosecuting dissent. How simple, by contrast, just to label an entity a "terrorist organization" and choke off, disrupt or indict its sources of financing.

Why the huge push for counterterrorism "fusion centers", the DHS militarizing of police departments, and so on? It was never really about "the terrorists". It was not even about civil unrest. It was always about this moment, when vast crimes might be uncovered by citizens – it was always, that is to say, meant to be about you.

Banks Couldn't Wait Until The Election Was Over As U.S. Foreclosure Rates Are Surging Again

       

Barack Obama 

A new report indicates foreclosures in America are soaring again. Foreclosures reached a 9-month high by the end of November 2012, after the U.S. presidential election. Banks completed nearly 60,000 foreclosures in November 2012, which will negatively impact the economy in a number of ways. The government has not done enough to help homeowners, who are being trampled in the court system.

Mortgage Problems Still Plaguing The U.S. Economy As People See Their Homes Wrongly Taken And Widows Have No Say


Delores Dingman

Numerous reports concerning America continue to indicate the same issues the Judiciary Report first reported five years ago, regarding problems with the economy, such as the mortgage crisis, continue to plague the nation. Banks are not being held to account and some are using it as an avenue to rip off and rob Americans. 

Widows are complaining their spouses' deaths has led to them fighting banks to stay in their homes. Banks are misapplying and using obscure statutes and rules, probate problems and convoluted paperwork to get widows out of their homes to liquidate properties. It is being done with the goal of questionably adding to bank profits on the stock market.

In other cases, banks are outright stealing people's homes. In the past, the Judiciary Report has written of people in America who paid off their homes, then the bank seeing a prime opportunity to make ill-gotten money, foreclosed on the mortgage free properties and pushed it through the court system.

Another such case has surfaced. ABC News published the story of Delores Dingman of Tualatin, Oregon, who has been fighting Wells Fargo bank for 3-years, as she has been paying her mortgage on time, but they placed her home in foreclosure anyway. Dingman has incurred $12,000 in legal fees trying to fight the bank.Wells Fargo purchased Wachovia Bank, who held Dingman's original equity mortgage. She is of the belief Wells Fargo failed to apply her payments when they purchased Wachovia.

As stated in my lawsuit, Aisha v. FBI filed under the Freedom Of Information Act, I leased a home from a millionaire newscaster in Miami and they foreclosed on her home in an act of malice. Her lawyer had to produce her bank account documents showing payments have been made and on time, to get them to back off, as they were about to swindle her home under a robo-signed foreclosure, on one of five properties she owns.

Though there was no changeover or acquisition of the bank holding the mortgage on the property, her lawyer discovered the bank did not credit any of the payments she submitted and the problem occurred at the time I moved in. I saw the documents with my own eyes and have a copy of it. Prior to that, the same thing was done to my former home in Miami, which had a lot of equity in it. 

Washington Mutual criminally placed it foreclosure in an act of malice and the bank refused to correct what they had done, leading to me having to retain a lawyer and fight them in court for years in a terrible mess. I had to sell my house quickly to extract the equity and get rid of the horrible bank, which angered me and resulted in me calling for a boycott of them online. 

As the phrase goes, "God don't like ugly" and Washington Mutual sensationally collapsed shortly after. It's quite ironic. Washington Mutual forced me into a proverbial fire sale of my equity packed home, via their criminal deeds. They even stole some of the equity in the property. Then Washington Mutual was ironically forced into a fire sale of their entire bank shortly after and were bought by Chase for pennies on the dollar when the bank collapsed. You reap what you sow.   

There are other stories of banks foreclosing and seizing homes with a significant amount of equity and little or no money owed on them, in acts of greed and theft, to boost their bottom line. Too many people in America have complained of this, with the documents to prove it, indicating there is a problem. Something very bad is happening but the government has not done enough to stop it.

The Obama Administration And The Foreclosure Crisis That Is Hitting Homeowners In Three Ways

    

Barack Obama

In my experiences with trying to help friends save their homes from foreclosure and or foreclosure auctions, I have witnessed banks pull just about every stunt in the book against homeowners. The Obama Administration has not done enough to rein in certain banks, who are not acting in the best interest of homeowners.

There are three main issues to consider in attempting to save a home, mainly via mortgage modifications. The three issues are the mortgage/payment, back taxes and insurance. Cities in America are demanding yearly property taxes that are due and banks are refusing to grant modifications without back taxes and or missed insurance payments being paid and brought current. 

City tax collectors are even foreclosing on homes whose mortgages are current, but taxes are delinquent. Some of the amounts owed are relatively small, yet properties are being seized and auctioned to satisfy the amount, as the homeowner placed their limited resources into making mortgage payments. 

It seems homeowners in America can't win and it is up to the government to make laws to help people in this regard or millions more foreclosures are on the way. If the federal government (FBI, DOJ and SEC) had done their jobs in properly regulating and investigating the practices of banks and the corporate sector on the whole, the sub-prime crisis would not have happened and millions of people in America would still be in their homes. Therefore, it is the government's duty to fix a problem that is raging out of control and damaging millions of people. However, the past four years have indicated the Obama Administration is unable to fix the problem that can be fixed.

The Discriminatory Tactics Of Rupert Murdoch's News Corp In The Phone Hacking Case




Rupert Murdoch and wife Wendi Murdoch


[Article background: this is another in the series of phone hacking articles the Judiciary Report has published, regarding a scandal I broke first in October 2005, via a police complaint I filed with the Metropolitan Police in London, England. 50 people have been arrested by the Metropolitan Police since the time I filed the complaint. However, the Murdochs and other key conspirators remain free and the FBI has not arrested anyone, though the crimes began and continue in News Corp's New York headquarters]

News Corp CEO Rupert Murdoch has been described as a ruthless businessman, but let's be frank here. The man is a criminal. So desperate is he to destroy and rob the competition, he hired hackers to break into rivals' business computers, copy the contents, then sabotage the software to destroy their businesses. That's not competitiveness. That's outright criminality. Murdoch and his children, who are members of the religious cult Kabbalah, have targeted business rivals in ways that also constitute discrimination.

The Murdochs and Kabbalah have placed select businesses and their owners they seek to rob of their company assets, under illegal surveillance, via private investigators and their thugs, phone hacking, computer hacking, wiretapping and stalking. The Murdochs have used employees to call banks demanding loans rivals obtained or try to pursue, be cancelled immediately. They have offered criminal inducements, such as placing their money with said institutions or removing it, if the business and personal loans are not foreclosed on. 





James Murdoch, Elisabeth Murdoch, Rupert Murdoch and Lachlan Murdoch

They have also attacked business rivals, via contacting realtors and property owners their private investigators witness said rivals visit, later demanding they not lease or sell property to them, which is illegal. In one case brutes acting on behalf of Murdoch and the Kabbalah Center, told a realtor they better not lease real estate space to their rival or, "You're not going to like how things turn out for you." That's a open threat.


Not to mention, a very illegal one on two fronts, as it also violated racial discrimination and harassment laws, as the business rival is black (Murdoch is racist and so is Kabbalah). Mark my words, Murdoch and Kabbalah's actions in this regard is going to turn into another big scandal (keep it up and you're going to get indicted and extradited when you least expect it). 


 

Rupert Murdoch

At News Corp and the Kabbalah Center, they sit around on their lazy backsides, criminally accessing people's bank accounts, among other things, trying to calculate ways to rob rivals and run out their money via unethical, illegal means. They file fraudulent lawsuits, sometimes using third parties they bribe to do so, in bids at destroying business rivals assets.

People have obligations to their business partners, employees, spouses, children and this man Murdoch and his sick sect Kabbalah are going around illegally disrupting and destroying people’s businesses to steal their assets and income, in criminal bids to get richer and unlawfully destroy the competition. They are disgusting and depraved people that should be imprisoned. They are not going for the social good of society and development of the business world. They are criminally engaging in acts to destroy it and steal all they can.

Obama Sided With The Rich Over The Poor Hence The Financial Crisis Continuing

 

Barack Obama

U.S. President Barack Obama has spent America into a massive hole, in doling out $1 trillion dollars to mostly wealthy financial institutions and businesses that ripped off the American people, then crashed and burned for doing so, when their extortionate fees were not met by the working class.

This has not created a healthy economy, but a severely indebted one, as Obama added $5 trillion to the national deficit in just under four years. Rather than go with austerity, in making much needed budget cuts, living within one’s means and not spending money the government does not have, Obama did the opposite to terrible results. What‘s even more alarming is Obama is determined other world leaders should do the same, when it has not worked for him in America. It's time for a change.

Too Big To Fail Or Go To Jail

  
Barack Obama

The current financial crisis which exploded in America in 2008, then spread to the rest of the world, has done significant damage to many people in the United States and around the globe. Yet, in the face of all this financial destruction and ensuing social turmoil, no one has gone to jail or prison in America for these terrible economic crimes that has caused so much suffering.


The term "too big to fail" is often employed regarding major corporations that are experiencing financial loss. However, too big to fail or go to jail, should be added to the term, as the Obama Administration, much like the presidency of Bush before him, have given a pass to financial criminals that have cost America and the world so much. Not exactly a deterrent from committing crime. This is corrupt and needs to be changed.

Is Obama A Friend Of Wall Street Or Of The Average Joe

You Decide. Self-Examination Necessary During Financial Crisis.

 

Barack Obama (Photo Credit: Picture Alliance/Photoshot)

Is U.S. President Barack Obama a friend of Wall Street, which is the corporate sector or the average American Joe, also known as the everyday people. The film "The Obama Deception" labels him, "The most Wall Street president in U.S. history." 

Decisions President Obama has made, such as not increasing taxes on the rich, though the nation needs the money, indicates he is more of a friend to the wealthy in the corporate sector, than the average Joe trying to make it on much smaller salaries, such as minimum wage and those in lower-middle income brackets. 

Has this helped America? No. The anemic economy, with ongoing massive job losses, millions of people giving up on finding work after trying for a significant period of time, foreclosures and bank failures, indicate it has not worked. President Obama has not had success in restoring the economy to its former glory, which is not impossible, as other nations are making strong strides even in these tough economic times. 

Former Presidents, Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton, understood it was wise to keep a safe distance from Wall Street, only providing a supporting role and different degrees of regulation, lest they get swept up in a world of constantly issuing favors for the ingratiating rich, while the poor pay the price. It's a lesson President Obama would do well to observe and it is a shame he did not do so from year one of his presidency.

Legislative Bill Passes To Halt Foreclosures OF Military In The Field



A legislative bill in the U.S. Congress to stop foreclosures against the properties of active servicemen in the military has passed. It is expected to be signed into law shortly. This is a positive development that is long overdue, as the government owes the soldiers for sacrificing and jeopardizing their lives (especially over Bush's senseless wars).

Report: "Banks Treat Foreclosed Homes Better In Mostly White Neighborhoods"

New Report Alleges Discrimination And Racism

A newly released report by the the National Fair Housing Alliance indicates foreclosed homes in white neighborhoods, were treated better than those in minority areas. This means, after evicting occupants, homes in white neighborhoods received better maintenance by banks, than properties in predominantly black and Hispanic areas.

These prejudices are prevalent in the banking system. For example, the now defunct Washington Mutual Bank, was forced to pay a large settlement for targeting blacks and Hispanics for high risks loans. In another legal action against the kaput bank, it was discovered they targeted non-English speaking customers and those with black or Hispanic sounding names, to saddle with extra mortgage fees, for services they did not need. Regrettably, racism is alive and well in the corporate sector.

Report: Banks Treat Foreclosed Homes Better In Mostly White Neighborhoods

By Chris Morran on April 4, 2012 2:15 PM - While Americans of every possible ethnic and racial group were hit by the massive foreclosures when the economy went KABOOM! a few years back, a new report claims that banks are often giving short shrift to the upkeep and marketing of foreclosed properties in areas with predominantly non-white residents.

Earlier today, the National Fair Housing Alliance released the result of its undercover investigation into how bank-owned properties are treated in nine major metro areas — Atlanta, Baltimore, Dallas, Dayton, Miami/Fort Lauderdale, Oakland, Philadelphia, Phoenix, and Washington, DC.

If Banks Don't Start Working With Foreclosed Homeowners Their Profits Are Going To Plunge

President Barack Obama

The U.S. banking sector has seen terrible declines over the past few years, due to the mortgage crisis and overall financial decline of the country, under presidents George W. Bush, then Barack Obama. The government, at the taxpayers expense, has given major U.S. banks billions of dollars from the Treasury, to keep them afloat. However, despite these funds coming courtesy of the taxpayers, a number of banks are still making it as difficult as possible for homeowners to obtain mortgage modifications to remain in their properties.

Standard tricks being used on homeowners run the gamut. They range from pretending they did not receive documents that were faxed or mailed to the bank(s), despite established couriers such as the U.S. Postal Service, Fedex and UPS, providing mailing confirmation, to not notifying property owners of the options available to save their homes.

If banks keep playing with homeowners, opting for the quick buck in trying to rush people out of their homes to auction off properties in a market so overcrowded and poor nothing is selling, they will see massive revenue declines again. Kicking distressed homeowners to the curb is not the way to financial profitability, but long term losses (as in loss of mortgage interest payments over time had they straightened out said loans).
