Georgia Court Filing Alleges DA Fani Willis Appointed and Paid Her Lover, Nathan Wade, $654,000 to Prosecute Donald Trump


Posted originally on the CTH on January 8, 2024 | Sundance 

Well, well, well… isn’t this interesting.  In a court filing today [SEE pdf HERE], one of the co-defendants in the Fulton County election case against President Trump is presenting very specific details of an intimate relationship between District Attorney Fani Willis and the Special Prosecutor she hired, Nathan Wade.

At first review, if the allegations are true, DA Willis had a financial motivation to initiate the case against Trump, as her boyfriend was the primary financial beneficiary.  The filing documents how Fani Willis and Nathan Wade took several extravagant vacations and indulged in an exclusive lifestyle as the result of payments Willis’s office made to Wade.

If investigated as accurate, this could be very legally problematic for the Fulton County District Attorney and her case against President Trump.  The conflict of interest is very bright under this spotlight.  [Also, lolol ]

ATLANTA – District Attorney Fani Willis improperly hired an alleged romantic partner to prosecute Donald Trump and financially benefited from their relationship, according to a court motion filed Monday which argued the criminal charges in the case were unconstitutional.

The bombshell public filing alleged that special prosecutor Nathan Wade, a private attorney, paid for lavish vacations he took with Willis using the Fulton County funds his law firm received. County records show that Wade, who has played a prominent role in the election interference case, has been paid nearly $654,000 in legal fees since January 2022. The DA authorizes his compensation.

The motion, filed on behalf of defendant Michael Roman, a former Trump campaign official, seeks to have the charges against Roman dismissed and for Willis, Wade and the entire DA’s office to be disqualified from further prosecution of the case.

Pallavi Bailey, a Willis spokeswoman, said the DA’s office will respond to Roman’s allegations “through appropriate court filings.” Wade did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

It is unclear if the explosive issues raised in the filing undermine the validity of the indictment against Trump and the remaining 14 co-defendants or simply muddy the waters by questioning Willis’ professional ethics.

One ethics expert said that the the allegations, if true, raised serious questions.

Stephen Gillers, a professor emeritus at New York University Law School who has written extensively about legal and judicial ethics, said a closer look at Willis’ decision-making is be needed before it can be determined whether the indictment should be dismissed.

If the allegations are true, Gillers said, “Willis was conflicted in the investigation and prosecution of this case” and wasn’t able to bring the sort of “independent professional judgment” her position requires.” (read more)

The Epstein Interview


Posted originally on Jan 6, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 

MCC 9S Tier

In this interview, you will hear the efforts of Jeffrey Epstein’s brother to get answers. During this interview, he was told that the doors were open. This is the hole. They throw you in there to cut off your communicates. When they went after my lawyers, suddenly, I was thrown into what the inmates call the “HOLE,” and in this photo, I was in the second cell on the left. Back then, this tier was full of the terrorists from the First World Trade Center attack. When my family went to visit me, they were told I was not in MCC. They informed my lawyers, and they said that was impossible. They went to the Judge to inform him I was missing. He ordered the government to find me. They acted like I strolled down to the most secure facility in the country, knocked on the door, and asked if I could play with the Terrorists.

Hanging 300x200

Epstein was in the first cell on the right. Based on where they put him, I knew he would be found dead. It was not a question of “IF” but WHEN. As I wrote before his death, “No high profile case is EVER allowed to go to trial where things the government does not want to be revealed could ever become public.  The Death in Custody Reporting Act of 2000, which collected similar data from states, expired in 2006.” When they tried to kill me, my cell was magically left open. To their dismay, I survived after being in a coma.

The fact that the Attorney General Bar lied in this Epstein affair is only confirmation to me that his comment about Trump was also the Deep State protecting itself. I maintain that Epstein was NOT a pedophile. He was using underage girls as blackmail. His list of people was all high profile. If he had this fetish for a 17-year-old girl rather than an 18-year-old, I defy any guy to be able to tell the difference by just looking at them. Introducing high-profile people to underage girls was a classic honeytrap. That is standard operational procedure in espionage. Russian spies infiltrate Tinder.

Anna_Chapman_mug_shot

I will not mention the name of the country, but I was asked to open an office there and stock it with women so a certain royal head of state could visit the office and pretend it was for economic advice. I declined, even though I would have received more than $10 billion to manage the office.

Anna Chapman was a Russian Spy caught in New York City. She was swapped for American spies in 2010 and made headlines in New York. She was stunningly beautiful as well as stunningly successful. Well, if you are going to betray secrets, this is far better than the rubber hose treatment. She scored with politicians.

Mark Pittman & the Bankers


Posted originally on Jan 6, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 

The late Mark Pittman was a journalist for Bloomberg when, once upon a time, there were still a few actual investigative reporters. Mark did a piece on my operation in Japan. He knew what we were doing, that the accounts were mine, not clients, and that I was buying distressed portfolios. Not one client ever signed a complaint, and there was NO DEFAULT. When they charged me. I met Mark at the Hyatt in NYC across from the Train Station. He knew it was a setup and said: “Marty, we are not going to allow them to do this to you.”

Trenton no Defaults 9 13 1999
HSBC Gag Cover

The law says that if you commit fraud, you MUST help the victims get their money back. Further proof of how New York City is a cesspool of corruption: when they realized I was helping my clients go after the bankers, they put a gag order on me to stop me from helping my clients against HSBC/Republic. They have been doing the same to Trump. The Special Prosecutor went as far as to demand a gag order on Trump so that he could not even criticize Biden while campaigning. You cannot make up this stuff. If you wrote a fiction novel with these maneuvers, they would say it is too far-fetched.

I think it is absolutely critical as Trump is put on trial in New York City. I was granted bail in New Jersey. Not a single NY journalist ever reported the Truth no less the courts. I was interviewed by a journalist who asked about the bank illegally trading in my accounts. She asked if they were using my accounts to “launder money for the Russian Mafia as they were doing in Madof?” The banks claimed in Madoff’s case not to have known. That is absolutely IMPOSSIBLE, for you have to know your client rules. They verified every account and the corporate documents behind each one. Madoff pled guilty to an information quickly. He was not indicted and could have defended for a few years. The only reason he did so was clearly to protect his family. Just as in my case, the bank claimed it had no idea where the money was. It is impossible to get $1 billion out of a bank, and nobody knows where it went. There is NO SUCH thing as a fair trial in New York City. Trump is doomed there, and this is all about interfering in the 2024 election.

Pittman Mark

Mark understood the bankers very well. Bloomberg removed Mark from covering my case and replaced him with David Glovin, who could never praise the government more. It was Mark at Bloomberg who battled in court for years to get the details of those bailouts released to the public. Mark was probably the most professional journalist I ever met. I was told after my case began that Bloomberg purged all the reports Mark had previously written about our firm from their terminals and certainly Japan. It was as if Bloomberg was in on the whole scam.

Mark’s wife, Laura, wrote to me about Mark’s death. It was a sad day, for there was NEVER anyone at Bloomberg I ever met who had the integrity of Mark Pittman.

The Truth About Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies – An Unpopular Analysis


Posted originally on Jan 5, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 

Bitcoin and Gold

“Could governments seize bitcoin?” That is a common question, and much to the dismay of many, my opinion does not match the typical analysis. I have lost clients due to my honesty regarding crypto. I understand many firmly believe that Bitcoin will one day become the alternative to the USD, but it is unwise to believe that it is a safe haven to park money. I will not sugar-coat the truth, as feelings must be removed from trading. The answer is an astounding YES – governments can seize Bitcoin and all other cryptocurrencies.

To begin, there is much speculation around the founder(s) — Satoshi Nakamoto – who created Bitcoin (BTC) on  June 3, 2009. The mystery person or group (or government agency) has been MIA since 2011. Yet 1 million Bitcoins remain in their original account, untouched. His wallet is estimated to be up to $73 billion, and if this is indeed an individual, he or she is one of the top 15 richest people in the world. They have never moved a fraction of a BTC from their account. So, one wallet contains 5% of all mined bitcoin. Will this person or entity perpetually hold?

Only 2.3% of Bitcoin owners own a full Bitcoin, while 74% own less than 0.01 BTC. Bitcoin was initially a way to remain under the government’s radar, with people using cash to fund their anonymous accounts. The majority no longer use this method and favor platforms that are required by governments to collect and verify all user data.

Bitcoin’s price is akin to the problem that existed when the bubble burst in 1966 with mutual funds because they were listed back then. The value can change at a volatility rate of 10x that of the dollar, making it a highly dangerous instrument as a store of wealth. It is solely a trading vehicle until they weigh it and the value is changed.

1966Crash D

In 1966, investors bid the mutual funds up beyond net asset value so during the crash, people lost everything when they thought it was a secure investment. The net underlying assets may have dropped 20%, but they paid 20% over the net asset value and then sold at 50% of the net asset value. Many mutual funds crashed 70-90%, whereas the Dow drop was 26.5%. Ever since, mutual funds have no longer been allowed to be listed. You go in and out at net asset value. Bitcoin must change its structure, or it will never become a valid currency with a stable store of value, which is supposed to be the whole point. It is just an asset class of high volatility.

Countries with strong currencies do not want bitcoin in existence. There are numerous ongoing efforts to regulate all cryptocurrencies, as politicians claim people are using it to either bypass taxes or commit crimes. Governments have reached the end of their rope and are actively on the hunt for additional taxes. They will default on all their debts, and the new monetary system they are planning will give them total control.

Governments in Europe and the Middle East prohibited my company from selling their clients REPORTS on bitcoin. We spoke with the regulators and explained we were merely selling a report and not currency, but they threw it all in the same bin. The same exact thing happens when we ship ancient coins as governments consider them currency despite them not being in circulation for numerous lifetimes.

1933 FDR exec order gold

Those who call Bitcoin “digital gold” are onto something, as governments have seized gold in recent history. Herbert Hoover admitted in his “Memoirs” that the investigation that led to the creation of the SEC was on the back of a phone call where he was told it was a conspiracy against his administration to create the stock market crash.

Governments will impose capital controls as they always do. That will mean that they will have no intention of allowing people to buy and sell cryptocurrencies. They will most likely do that as well when it comes to gold and silver. A black market in precious metals may exist with a supply that cannot be increased. They might even seize gold mines.

Governments are allowing cryptos like Bitcoin to exist because they can trace the transactions far better than paper currency. Bitcoin is a trading vehicle and nothing more. Just follow Socrates. That gives at least an unbiased viewpoint. What goes up comes down, and what goes down eventually goes up. That is just the law of the market.

Every major central bank has said they plan to move to CBDC. The entire purpose of the CBDC is to impose COMPLETE capital controls. So, how will you buy and sell anything that they deem to be a threat to their totalitarian world?

Gender Neutral Toy Aisles Mandatory in California by Law


Posted originally on Jan 5, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 

genderneutraltoyscalifornia

California is facing a massive budget deficit and boasts the largest homeless population in the US. The state is expanding the Medi-Cal program under Medicare to provide 700,000 illegal migrants with free healthcare. Leave it to Governor Gavin Newsom to focus on non-issues like children’s toys. His entire platform is based on pandering to the far-left as his state crumbles. California is now prohibiting toy stores from gendering toys.

Any large retailer that fails to implement a gender-neutral toy aisle will be faced with a fine of up to $500. Those who break the law may face civil suits “enforced through legal proceedings initiated by the state attorney general, district attorney, or city attorney.” This is a milder version of the original bill that attempted to BAN stores from displaying gendered toys and clothes.

TransPrideTODDLER

The funding for this should go into mental healthcare. This extremism borders child abuse. Children do not even understand the term “gender-neutral” nor should they. If your daughter wants to play with a toy car, you’re free to walk into the toy aisle to purchase one. The indoctrination starts at an extremely young age. This legislation will teach Generation Alpha that it is not ok to be masculine or feminine. We must live in a genderless society to appease the WOKE.

In addition to corrupting the youth of America, the law blatantly infringes upon the First Amendment. Will religious store owners have the option to opt-out of this ridiculous law? I personally have fond memories of my children running up and down the toy aisles. Nothing is sacred anymore.

2023_05_27_14_09_57_Target_partners_with_org_pushing_for_kids_genders_to_be_secretly_changed_in_sch

All of that is coming to an end in California as kids will question why there is a special section for the children of far-left liberals who were raised to believe that femininity and masculinity is wrong. The woke completely ignores biology that has been passed down throughout the ages to preserve the human race. Parents are now beneath the government and do not have a say in how their children are exposed to adult topics.

Gavin Newsom’s goal of becoming the wokest state in the nation is working, and people are leaving in droves. Newsom certainly did not have gender-neutral toy aisles when President Xi came to visit. If he feels so strongly about this topic, he should do his next debate in a dress. This is a direct attack on the children of America, and everyone wants to know WHY they are so focused on turning every child into a they/them. They are not the government’s children, as the president once claimed, and parents have every right to be outraged by the deeply disturbed woke agenda.

Biden Suing Texas to Stop Them From Deporting Illegal Aliens


Posted originally on Jan 3, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 

Constitution

Biden’s controlled Justice (JustUs) Department has sued the state of Texas regarding their new state law that would authorize local police and judges to arrest and remove undocumented immigrants. The Biden Administration is flooding the nation with illegal aliens. It (1) intends to grant citizenship by executive order to rig the 2024 election, and (2) it will require them to join the military to fight China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran, just to mention a few.

The Texas statute is due to go into effect in a matter of months. Biden is claiming that this Texas law is unconstitutional, allocating powers to local officials that have been reserved for the federal government. However, the Supreme Court ruled in HARRIS V. McRAE, 448 U.S. 297 (1980) that the Constitution is NEGATIVE, not POSITIVE. That means there is no obligation by any state to provide services to illegal aliens any more than to citizens.

Biden has turned the Constitution upside down. Texas and any other state are NOT under any obligation to provide anything to illegal aliens. They should all get a free bus ticket to Washington, DC. Let the Congress members fight their way to get home and to work, stepping over all the people living on the streets. The Supreme Court was confronted with an abortion case, and the issue was whether the state should pay for it as a right. The holding is very clear and correct. The Constitution is NEGATIVE, and as such, it is a RESTRAINT upon government – not a POSITIVE instrument that compels the government to provide any social benefits whatsoever as some entitlement.

To all our readers in Texas, get a hold of your state representative and tell them NOT to provide anything to illegal aliens whatsoever. Hand them a free bus ticket to Washington, DC. That’s it.

New Way to Object in Court


Posted originally on Jan 3, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 

I have never seen or heard of someone leaping over the court bench to attack a judge. Perhaps violence is rising absolutely everywhere. The Judge was OK and was not hospitalized after the attack. The courtroom marshal was injured and was hospitalized for treatment of a bleeding gash on his forehead and a dislocated shoulder. The defendant, Deobra Delone Redden, 30, was wrestled to the floor behind the judge’s bench by several court and jail officers and courtroom staff members — including some who are seen throwing punches. Quite a spectacle. I guess he has an anger problem. If this were in California, the Judge would be charged for handing out a racially induced sentence.

What Will the Fed do in 2024?


Posted originally on Jan 3, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 

Powell_Unsustainable_12 1 23

Everyone wants to know what the Federal Reserve will do in 2024. Of course, people want to believe that the Fed will slash interest rates in the New Year. The pundits cling to every word except when, at the start of the month of December, Powell boldly criticized the Biden Administration, saying that his outrageous spending is “unsustainable” and central banks do not criticize their governments. They certainly do not criticize each other. I have met with the boards of central banks worldwide because I understand their predicament. Unless you have been behind those closed doors, you will never comprehend the intricacies that are taking place.

Federal Reserve Bank

The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) held rates at the 5.25% to 5.5% range at their last meeting in December 2023. Additionally, the committee indicated the possibility of at least three rate cuts in 2024, as their favored gauges for inflation appear to be easing. The “dot plot,” which reflects individual members’ expectations, suggests the potential for four rate cuts in 2025 and three more in 2026, bringing the rate down to between 2% and 2.25%. Now, that is simply what the public has been led to believe.

The Fed’s last decision reflects a cautious approach to policy tightening, considering multiple factors unknown to the public before any further adjustments. The committee’s PUBLIC decision and future outlook are based on the evolving economic conditions in relation to inflation and the labor market.

The Federal Open Market Committee will meet in 2024 as follows:

  • Jan. 30-31
  • Mar. 19-20
  • Apr. 30 – May 1
  • Jun. 11-12
  • Jul. 30-31
  • Sept. 17-18
  • Nov. 6-7
  •  Dec.  17-18
2023 Year End Report

There are simply things I cannot publish on the public blog. I have posted articles on the Socrates private blog that explain the Fed’s direction for 2024 in further detail. Now, consider the dates above and consider what events align with them. Further details will be provided in the Year-End Report, which should be out by the end of this week.

Federal Reserve 1951 Accord

The Federal Reserve cannot criticize the federal government. The most significant issues facing our economy are simply out of the Fed’s hands: war, taxation, and government spending. Chairman Jerome Powell surprised everyone when he called current government spending “unsustainable.” While not a direct criticism, Powell issued a stark warning that aligns with our Revolution Cycle of 72 years. In 1951, the central bank defied the US government by refusing to purchase debt to prevent rate hikes amid the Korean War.

So, there is bad news for the perpetual bulls who insist rates must decline. There is a HUGE divergence unfolding between short and long-term rates. Institutions are buying up government debt without considering the potential that rates may not fall. Absolutely no one is factoring in the largest driver of inflation – WAR – nor are they factoring in the three main pillars of government debauchery (war, taxation, government spending) that the Fed cannot control.

Nevada District Court Judge Mary Holthus Violently Attacked While Ruling from Bench


Posted originally on the CTH on January 3, 2024 | Sundance 

District Court Judge Mary Kay Holthus was denying probation to a defendant in a battery case, when things in the courtroom became alarmingly violent.

Just as Judge Holthus said she was denying probation and about to impose a sentence, criminal defendant Deobra Redden (30) shouted “f**k that bitch,” leaped over the bench and attacked the judge.  WATCH:  [LINK HERE]

Due to the race of the defendant, cultural sensitivities, political correctness and the graphic nature of the events, the courtroom video has been restricted by Google in an effort to forestall public awareness. [WATCH HERE]

This is what George Soros prosecutors and misguided judges are turning loose on the streets every day when they do not incarcerate violent offenders.  Had this man received yet another probation sentence, the next victim would have been anyone in this defendant’s orbit and not the judge.

Really Goofy – DOJ Files Additional Indictment Against Bob Menendez for Taking Bribes from Qatari Interests


Posted originally on the CTH on January 3, 2024 | Sundance 

This is really odd, if you understand the role Qatar plays for the USA.  If you think of Ukraine as a money laundering operation where U.S. Senators, families or business interests, get U.S. government funds washed through Ukraine and back into the USA, then historically Qatar has been our biggest dry cleaner for decades.

It is well known that the U.S govt uses Qatar as the pivot point for the distribution of covert funds to facilitate the Dept of State, CIA and Intelligence Community operations.  Example: We give Qatar money to buy U.S. military weapons, the CIA provides the weapons, then we tell Qatar to send the surface-to-air missiles to Libya (this happened).  That’s just one example, and there are dozens of documented instances.

Qatar is the home base of the Muslim Brotherhood, the official agency for USA influence with political Islam, the tool/bank of the CIA, and the proxy ambassador for U.S. influence with al-Qaeda, Hezbollah and Hamas.  We give Qatar money, then tell them what to do with it – like send to Iran (link) or send to Ukraine (link).  Qatar is our national “dark money” bank.

Inside this rather weird story, the DOJ is now filing an additional indictment against Senator Bob Menendez for organizing a financing system for a U.S. business using investment funds from Qatar.  The business, likely the Edgewater development project (principal investor Fred Daibes), paid Senator Menendez an indulgency fee (bribe) for helping with the Qatari contacts, and then Qatar gave Bob Menendez perks for the end result.

Oh, the irony… Hunter and Joe Biden, not-so-much… I digress.

If you really look at this action by Main Justice, and you understand how all of the key politicians receive some form of compensation from Qatar, then suddenly you have to ask why is the DOJ singling out Menendez for something the entire Senate is doing?

One possible answer is that it’s an election year, and Main Justice (Lisa Monaco), in collaboration with the Intelligence Community (Avril Haines), is sending a shot across the bow to any U.S. Senator that they need to be careful with any position they take, or the “six ways to Sunday” group will be activated against them.

Nothing else really makes any sense.

Additionally, you have to laugh at this little line… “Menendez allegedly messaged Daibes on an encrypted app“…  Gee, not so much encryption, eh?  I wonder what app that was?  PRO TIP: Likely, Signal.

WASHINGTON DC – […] In January 2022, as Daibes was about to meet the Qatari investor in London, Menendez allegedly texted both of them: “Greetings, I understand my friend is going to visit with you on the 15th of the month. I hope that this will result in the favorable and mutually beneficial agreement that you have both engaged in discussing.”

That May, according to the indictment, the Qatari company signed a letter of intent to enter into a joint venture with Daibes and “thereafter, Daibes provide Menendez with at least one gold bar.” Three days later, following a dinner with Daibes, Menendez allegedly Googled “one kilo gold price.” (read more)

I’m sorry, but this is funny… because it’s friggin’ Qatar.

Everyone who walks in the political weeds knows the U.S. government controls all the Qatar stuff.

Remember, when the people behind Biden needed to execute the DoS/CIA World War Reddit?   [Check Date]

Or when the people behind Biden needed to give Iran money to fund the Hamas attack?
