Rudy Giuliani's law license suspended for lying, but what about all of the other lying politicians?

June 24, 2021

RUDY GIULIANI SUSPENDED FROM PRACTICING LAW IN NEW YORK STATE OVER FALSE STATEMENTS ABOUT TRUMP ELECTION LOSS

A New York court suspended Rudy Giuliani from practicing law in New York state due to making "false and misleading statements" about the election loss of Donald Trump in 2020.

Based on that logic, ALL politicians should have their law licenses suspended in New York State because ALL politicians are LIARS who LIE to the people for a living of sitting on their big FAT ASSES for decades of corruption and speaking out of both sides of their mouths to take in as much campaign cash as possible!!!!

Why does Hunter Biden get to break all of the laws out there - known crack cocaine addict, alleged money laundering from China, allegedly giving his father (Joe Biden) millions of dollars, allegedly paying sex workers for sex, allegedly lying to a family court Judge about the child he fathered with a stripper, and so on - without facing any legal consequences, but Rudy Giuliani has his law license suspended for lying about the 2020 election?  Does the U.S. and New York State Constitutions protect Rudy Giuliani's free speech?  Don't ALL politicians LIE for a living?  JOKE: How do you know when a politician is lying: PUNCHLINE: The politician's lips are moving!

What happened to freedom of speech?  Rudy Giuliani has every right to say what he believes, even if it is a (big) lie.  So does everyone else out there.  I would like to see Rinaldo Del Gallo III defend Rudy Giuliani's right to free speech in the State of New York.  Didn't Dan Valenti go through something similar when he blogged about Cliffy Nilan's beautiful adult daughter Meredith Nilan's auto accident where a man was injured.  Dan Valenti was ordered by a Massachusetts court of law to remove his blog posts about the beautiful Meredith Nilan, and Dan Valenti complied.  Rinaldo Del Gallo III defended Dan Valenti's right to blog about Cliffy and his beautiful adult daughter Meredith because the state and national constitutions entitles Dan Valenti to free speech on his blog.  I thought I could go around saying the sky is red during the day and white and then blue at night, and my erroneous statements are legal under my entitlement to free speech.  If Hunter Biden can write a book this year of 2021 saying he broke all sorts of state and federal laws and make millions of dollars doing so, then why can't Rudy Giuliani falsely say the 2020 election was stolen?

Hello Patrick Fennell,

If Bill Cosby will be the next Governor of Massachusetts, then Ghislaine Maxwell should serve as his Lieutenant Governor.  I remember that Martha Stewart went to prison for insider trading, but during and after the 2008 Wall Street collapse, none of the Wall Street executive were charged for wrecking the economy and causing the worst economic recession since the Great Depression in the 1930s; and they (Wall Street big banks) received trillions of federal bailout dollars.  Now, Bill Cosby, who still has 60 women making similar sexual assault and rape allegations against him, is a free man, while Ghislaine Maxwell is still behind bars prior to her trial by jury.  What do Martha Stewart and Ghislaine Maxwell have in common?  They are both women and political pawns who not wealthy Wall Street investment bankers or Hollywood royalty.

Hunter Biden wrote a book earlier this year of 2021 about all of his bad boy behaviors and illegal activities.  Hunter Biden is an alleged money launderer of hundreds of millions of dollars from China, and millions of dollars from Russia and Ukraine.  But, Hunter Biden's father is U.S. President Joe Biden.  Meanwhile, Donald Trump's businesses and CFO Allen Weisselberg have been indicted in New York State on alleged tax crimes.  Why does Hunter Biden go uncharged after writing a book about smoking crack cocaine every 15 minutes, drowning himself in alcohol, paying sex workers for sex, and so on, while Donald Trump's businesses and CFO are now indicted?

Beacon Hill is very corrupt, secretive and full of career politicians and greedy lobbyists who are only in it for themselves.  I cannot believe that Governor Charlie Baker and Beacon Hill lawmakers are sitting on billions of slush fund and stimulus fund dollars, missed their state budget deadline today (July 1, 2021), and will most likely vote to keep their corrupt sausage making secret after their predetermined State House of Representatives rules vote that will take place sometime in the next two weeks.  The people and taxpayers of Massachusetts are being shafted by Beacon Hill's Salons like never before!  How could things get any worse?

Best wishes,

Smitty Pignatelli and the other federal, state and local politically connected backstabbers want to put an toxic waste dump full of GE's industrial chemicals in Lee (Massachusetts) over the objections of the people and property owners who live there.

The Lovely Linda is all for selling out the Towns of Lee and Lenoxdale/Lenox.  After all, Pittsfield politics sold out their own people over 2 decades ago with the flawed Consent Decree with GE where local people refer to Pittsfield as GE's dump.  I believe that if Mayor Linda Tyer wants GE's industrial chemical dump in Lee, bike projects at Springside Park, and Pittsfield's chronic "houseless" families to get booted out of city parks and shelters, then she should lobby to put all of the industrial chemical pollution leaky landfills, bike projects, and the "houseless" families in her own wealthy gated community neighborhood near the Pittsfield/Hancock border.  Lead by example, Lovely Linda!

On Donald Trump's businesses and CFO Allen Weisselberg being indicted on multiple alleged tax crimes today (Thursday, July 1, 2021), why isn't the same or similar laws being used against Hunter Biden, who allegedly money laundered hundreds of millions of dollars from China, and millions of dollars from Russia and Ukraine?  Hunter Biden wrote and published a book earlier this year of 2021 where he explained all of his "bad boy behaviors" as a middle aged man who used to smoke crack cocaine every 15 minutes, drown himself in alcohol, frequent strip clubs where he got a young woman stripper pregnant and falsely denied he was the father to a Judge who then ordered Hunter Biden to take a paternity test - he was the father of the stripper's baby, hired sex workers for sex both at home and abroad, has at least 5 children by at least 3 women, and so on.  Yet the State of New York recently suspended Rudy Giuliani's law license, and then they indicted Donald Trump's businesses and his CFO Allen Weisselberg, while Hunter Biden goes uncharged on the state and federal levels.  Hmmm.

Bill Cosby was released from Pennsylvania State Prison yesterday (Wed., June 30th, 2021), while Ghislaine Maxwell still sits in jail.  Bill Cosby has 60 women who accused him of sexual assault and/or rape.  Ghislaine Maxwell is accused of sex trafficking underage girls for alleged pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, who either committed suicide or was murdered because he would have brought down important men in big business and big government such as Prince Andrew, President Bill Clinton, and others.  Why is Bill Cosby free, but not Ghislaine Maxwell?  Could she still spill the beans on the aforementioned important men unlike the late Jeffrey Epstein who may have been silenced to protect guys like Prince Andrew and Bill Clinton, among others?

Martha Stewart went to prison for insider trading, while the Wall Street Investment Bankers, who brought the U.S. financial system to near collapse in 2008 if not for trillions of federal bailout dollars, never face any charges.  Why did they prosecute Martha Stewart but not the big wheels on Wall Street?  Why didn't Martha Stewart receive a huge federal bailout like the big wheels on Wall Street?

Beacon Hill is very corrupt, secretive and full of career politicians and greedy lobbyists who are only in it for themselves. I cannot believe that Governor Charlie Baker and Beacon Hill lawmakers are sitting on billions of slush fund and stimulus fund dollars, missed their state budget deadline today (July 1, 2021), and will most likely vote to keep their corrupt sausage making secret after their predetermined State House of Representatives rules vote that will take place sometime in the next two weeks. The people and taxpayers of Massachusetts are being shafted by Beacon Hill's Salons like never before! How could things get any worse?

Hello Patrick Fennell,

What does Ghislaine Maxwell know and will she name names such as Prince Andrew, Bill Clinton, and others who were associated with the late Jeffrey Epstein?  Is she still locked up behind bars - unlike Bill Cosby - because she could blow open the entire Epstein scandal and ruin the lives of rich and famous men?  I believe that Epstein was just the tip of the proverbial iceberg!  You are right, Patrick Fennell, that the MSM is silent about the case of Ghislaine Maxwell, while going after Congressman Matt Gaetz.

How did Joe Biden and the Biden "Crime" Family become so fabulously wealthy?  Hunter Biden went to China and brought home $224 million from there.  Hunter Biden also brought home millions of dollars from Russia and Ukraine.  Donald Trump was impeached the first time for asking about Hunter Biden's foreign business dealings in Ukraine; I actually agree with Donald Trump on this matter.  Federal law enforcement agencies are investigating Hunter Biden for his alleged money laundering schemes from adversarial foreign countries such as China and Russia.  And YET, Donald Trump's businesses and his CFO Allen Weisselberg are facing tax crime charges by the State of New York, while Hunter Biden goes uncharged on the state and federal level.  Why isn't the MSM investigating Hunter Biden, Joe Biden, and the rest of the Biden "Crime" Family?

What about Hunter Biden's long list of other illegal and immoral activities?  Hunter Biden wrote a book this year of 2021 about how he used to smoke crack cocaine every 15 minutes and hire sex workers for sex.  He made millions of dollars by writing his book telling the nation and world that he is a dirt bag.  I always thought a man should have only one wife.  I always thought that having multiple families and children by multiple women was illegal.  Yet, Hunter Biden has at least 5 children by at least 3 women.  Joe Biden has a lot of grandchildren out there.  Perhaps Joe Biden should be looking out for all of Hunter Biden's children instead of being U.S. President where he is losing support even among his fellow Democrats on Capitol Hill.

Best wishes,

Hunter Biden can be the new Jimmy Hoffa as the would be Union Boss for strippers and sex workers in the U.S.A.  Maybe his father Joe Biden can go golfing with Hunter Biden and discuss giving union legal protections to America's strippers and sex workers.

Hunter Biden proposed unionizing prostitutes, according to laptop texts (yahoo.com)

https://www.yahoo.com/news/hunter-biden-theorizes-prostitutes-form-110000681.html

Pittsfield's PEDA debacle can be turned into giant brothels and strip clubs.  Hunter Biden can visit Pittsfield to tout the sex trades to the nation and rest of the world.  Barry can give Hunter a tour of inner city Pittsfield's streets at 3 a.m.  Hunter can make an early morning cameo at Cumby's with Bare Bare.

Bill Clinton has 26 known flight logs on Jeffrey Epstein's private jet.  Bill Clinton and Jeffrey Epstein must have been doing nothing wrong because Bill Clinton denied any illegal activities.  But we've heard that one before.  Bill Clinton was convicted of 2 felonies for perjury and suborning perjury.  I wonder if Ghislaine Maxwell will spill the beans on Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, and other rich and famous men who spent time with Jeffrey Epstein.  Some people say that if she does roll on the powerful then she will be murdered.  She is between a rock and hard place in her NYC jail cell, while Bill Cosby walks free after 60 women came forward about being sexually assaulted and/or raped by the famous black actor.

Oh yeah, the politically connected in Pittsfield, Massachusetts are pushing for a bike project in Springside Park.  But the Democrats are going to save the World from global warming!  Or is it just more hot air?

Bill Clinton, who was convicted of 2 felonies (Perjury & Suborning Perjury), has 26 entries in the late Jeffrey Epstein's private jet logs.  Bill Clinton denied doing anything illegal during his flights and vacations with Jeffrey Epstein, but we have heard Bill Clinton falsely deny his sexual misconduct allegations many times before.  There are many other men who spent time with Jeffrey Epstein.  Ghislaine Maxwell sits in a federal prison cell in Brooklyn, NYC, while Bill Cosby walks free despite having 60 women making similar claims of being sexually assaulted and/or raped by Bill Cosby.  Ghislaine Maxwell could spill the beans on the rich and powerful men who associated with Jeffrey Epstein, including former U.S. President and twice convicted Felon Bill Clinton.  Will she produce evidence such as financial documents and/or visual and/or audio evidence against the aforementioned rich and powerful men who are associated with Jeffrey Epstein?  If so, will her evidence and testimony be admissible in federal court?  If not, will her word be she said versus he said many times over?  Will Ghislaine Maxwell be the only woman to pay for Jeffrey Epstein's alleged sexual crimes against teenage women minors under the age of consent and/or the alleged sex trafficking crimes?  Or, will Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, and other rich and powerful men pay, too?  Let us not forget that Martha Stewart went to federal prison for insider trading, but the rich and powerful Wall Street Investment Bankers who nearly destroyed the U.S. economy if not for trillions of dollars in federal bailouts in 2008 and 2009 faced no charges whatsoever.  In fact, Wall Street Investment Bankers were rewarding for their alleged financial crimes and mismanagement.  When billionaire Robert Kraft, who owns the New England Patriots, among two dozen other men, allegedly paid women sex workers in Florida for sex, only the women sex workers faced charges and paid fines while the men walked free after allegedly receiving "Happy Endings" from the women sex workers.  In Pittsfield, there was the infamous persecution of the now late Bernard Baran, who was a young gay man in the mid-1980s, by the city's "Good Catholic Boys" civic leaders who ran the local county/state court system, and who either allegedly led double lives as alleged closeted homosexual men or at the least knew about each other's alleged sexual deviancy, that included the late Berkshire D.A. Anthony Ruberto (brother of snake oil salesman Jimmy Ruberto), Prosecutors Daniel Ford, who became a Massachusetts Judge, and the late Gerry Downing, who became a Berkshire D.A. (who withheld exculpatory evidence which were audio tape recordings of the young children that proved Baran's innocence of the sex crime charges against the aforementioned young children through his - Gerry Downing's - death of a heart attack in late-2003 while Baran was repeatedly beaten and raped in Massachusetts state prison), Berkshire D.A. David Capeless who sat on the withheld audio tape recordings for several years before finally releasing the said tapes to the Massachusetts Appeals Court that led to Baran's release from state prison after over two decades of his - Baran's - brutal incarceration, the late Berkshire Sheriff Carmen C. Massimiano, Jr., and Berkshire Superior Court Chief Probation Clifford J. Nilan.  The late Bernard Baran paid, while the late Anthony Ruberto, Daniel Ford, the late Gerry Downing, David Capeless, the late Carmen Massimiano, Jr., and Cliff Nilan never paid for their alleged double lives and/or close knit network.  Then just last year of 2020, the Boston-based Massachusetts State Democratic Party ran a sleazy homophobic smear campaign against Alex Morse, who challenged K Street's favorite PAC Man Richie Neal in the Democratic primary election.  In 2021, all of the Boston-based state Democratic Party Officials are still in their seats, PAC Man Richie Neal is serving his "1,000th term" in the Swamp, and Alex Morse received no apologies from anyone involved in the dirty political hit job against him, which means no one paid and they are all still in power one year later.  In closing, we live in a country of double standards that favors rich and powerful men from Pittsfield to Boston to the Swamp and beyond instead of a country that is based on the rule of law.

There are so many things I want to write about today.  First, Springside Park's proposed Bike Project is similar to the Berkshire Museum's sales of tens of millions of dollars in historic artwork.  The people of Pittsfield and Berkshire County were against selling the 2 Norman Rockwell paintings and other valuable artwork, but Godfather Jimmy Ruberto, Trippy Country Buffet, and all of the other provincial political Pittsfield insiders supported it.  The people of Pittsfield and Berkshire County are against changing Springside Park's natural beauty into a Bike Park and other development, but the aforementioned incestuous group of Pittsfield's insiders support it.  Second, Smitty Pignatelli is the WORST State Representative in Boston EVER!  He has been in office for nearly 20 years now and counting, and he has always openly opposed and voted against Sunshine laws to open Boston's corrupt sausage making to the public.  Smitty Pignatelli voted for House Speakers Tom Finneran and Sal DiMasi, who are both convicted Felons.  This past week, Smitty Pignatelli, along with Trippy Country Buffet, Paul Marx, and "the Mayor" John Barrett III, voted against all of the House Rule reform bills that would allow Beacon Hill lawmakers to know what they are voting on at least 48 hours ahead of time, record all committee votes, and reinstate term limits on the Speaker of the House, who currently is Ronny Mariano.  Doesn't Smitty realize that he works for the people and not the top-down and corrupt - sometimes convicted Felons - House Speaker?  Smitty Pignatelli wrote op-eds supporting putting a toxic waste dump full of GE's industrial chemicals in the Town of Lee (Massachusetts), despite the people he represents mostly opposing GE and the corrupt EPA's horrible settlement.  Smitty Pignatelli wrote op-eds stating the facts that Berkshire County has lost huge numbers of population and living wage jobs, which means a shrinking tax base for financially constrained municipalities and public school districts, without looking at himself in the proverbial mirror as a career politician who voted himself huge legislative pay raises and perks.  I have nothing but DISGUST for Smitty Pignatelli!  He is everything that is wrong with government in one career politician who only enriches himself at the public trough.  Third, why cannot Donald Trump's businesses just pay back the State of New York the nearly $1 million he owes the state in taxes?  Doesn't tax authorities from local, state to federal agencies negotiate with people and businesses who own back taxes or allegedly committed tax fraud?  Donald Trump is a multi-billionaire, so his businesses paying back nearly $1 million in owed state taxes would be like someone like me paying back $20 to the state tax agency.  I believe the dozens of NY State criminal charges against Trump's businesses is unnecessary, but it sure looks political to me.  Governor Andrew Cuomo made $5 million dollars writing a book where he lied about his role in New York State's Covid-19 pandemic where tens of thousands of senior citizens needlessly died in nursing homes under Cuomo's orders.  Cuomo also has nearly one dozen women alleging sexual misconduct against him.  Yet, New York State is going after Trump, while Cuomo goes uncharged.  Fourth, Donald Trump is suing Big Tech's social media platforms for allegedly violating his right to free speech.  From what I understand, Big Tech makes most of its money in Communist China, which invests billions of dollars in Big Tech companies, and also MSM news outlets in the U.S.A.  China has a much worse record on human rights violations than Donald Trump, but Big Tech is singling out Donald Trump while raking in billions from China.  Fifth, speaking of China, Hunter Biden received $224 million from there, as well as millions of dollars from Russia and Ukraine.  Hunter Biden is an accused money launderer of hundreds of millions of foreign dollars from adversarial countries, yet only Donald Trump is facing tax fraud charges.  Hunter Biden wrote a book, but unlike Cuomo, Hunter didn't lie, where Hunter said he used to smoke crack cocaine every 15 minutes, drown himself in alcohol, go to strip club, hire sex workers for sex, and has at least 5 children by at least 3 women, one of whom was a stripper.  Joe Biden is proud of his last surviving son, Hunter Biden.  In closing, we live in a messed up country where politicians become very wealthy and powerful, go after Donald Trump, but not others worse than him, and Smitty Pignatelli is the poster boy for being an arrogant buffoon who only does DISSERVICES against the people he supposedly represents in Boston's State House.

Sexual Harassment and Sexual Misconduct are wrong, but our political and societal culture has gone way too far with it all.  My theory about sexual inappropriate behavior in the workplace and by politicians is that "SEX SELLS" newspapers and the like.  Bill Clinton, who was convicted of 2 felonies (perjury and suborning perjury), is listed on 26 flight logs with Jeffrey Epstein.  There are other "Big Wheels" like the U.K.'s Prince Andrew who are associated with Jeffrey Epstein and his alleged underage sex trafficking ring.  Yet, only Ghislaine Maxwell is sitting in federal prison prior to her trial.  Will she spill the beans with documented evidence against Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, and so on?  Joe Biden's son Hunter Biden made millions of dollars in Communist China, Authoritarian Russia and Ukraine and is being investigated for alleged money laundering and tax fraud, which he used to buy sex from sex workers after he bought crack cocaine and drowned himself in alcohol.  Hunter Biden even got a young woman stripper pregnant and unsuccessfully tried to deny he was the father of the stripper's baby in a court of law.  Donald Trump openly cheated on all 3 of his wives, but somehow Donald Trump is loved by socially conservative Republicans both in the Swamp and throughout red state America.  Donald Trump's businesses allegedly owe the State of New York nearly $1 million in taxes and are facing multiple tax fraud state level charges.  I always ask people if Trump is really a multibillionaire, why doesn't he just pay the State of New York the nearly $1 million the State of New York alleges his businesses owe the state in back taxes?  Donald Trump is still fighting the Biden-run DOJ from releasing his federal tax returns to PAC Man Richie Neal's Ways and Means Congressional Committee.  Rudy Giuliani had his law license suspended by the State of New York for spreading Trump's "Big Lie" that the 2020 election was stolen due to fraud.  In closing, our political system is ran by a bunch of corrupt and wealthy politicians who give the Swamp its well deserved title!

What do I think about NY Governor Andrew Cuomo?  The same thing I think about Bill Clinton, the late Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, U.K.'s Prince Andrew, Bill Gates, Donald Trump, and other rich and powerful elites.  They ALL stink, and they are all disconnected from the reality that the masses live in.  If someone like me did the slightest thing wrong, I would be charged and prosecuted, and I would then lose most or all of my Veterans benefits as an incarcerated citizen.  But Bill Clinton, who is a convicted Felon twice over (perjury and suborning perjury), went on 26 flights with Jeffrey Epstein, along with other rich and powerful men who are associated with Jeffrey Epstein, then in our Twilight Zone justice system, only Ghislaine Maxwell is sitting behind bars for the time being.  If I wrote a book like Hunter Biden wrote and published earlier this year of 2021 where I said that I used to smoke crack cocaine every 15 minutes and drowned myself with alcohol and paid sex workers for sex, impregnated a young woman stripper, did hundreds of millions of dollars in business with China, and did business in Russia and Ukraine, was being investigated for money laundering and tax fraud by the feds, and so on, I would be in big trouble.  In closing, we do NOT live by the rule of law, but rather, we live by the rule of double standards!

Sarcasm: Warning to the Lovely Ladies!  Andrew Cuomo is a hands on Governor.  When you Lovely Ladies tell on him, he will always deny his hands on management style.  Perhaps the New York State Legislature will pass a law requiring body cameras for the Lovely Ladies who work in Governor Andrew Cuomo's executive office to ensure he will keep his hands on approach to his pen and paper only.

Hello Patrick Fennell,

I am disappointed with career politician Smitty Pignatelli because he voted himself huge legislative pay raises and public perks, he always supports closed door sausage making on Beacon Hill, he voted for two convicted Felon state House Speakers Tom Finneran and Sal DiMasi, he supports GE putting a third toxic waste leaky landfill in Berkshire County in his legislative district town of Lee (Massachusetts), he has a college degree in Finance and worked at Lee Bank years ago, but he supports the horrible settlement between the corrupt EPA and heavily indebted GE to cleanup the polluted Housatonic River that has no financial commitment from GE.  The first thing a Financial Manager and Banker like Smitty should look at is the financial statement(s) from GE, but there isn't one because GE has made an empty promise for an unfunded proposed 15 year long, billion dollar project.  The thing I am most upset with Smitty about is that he writes op-eds about Berkshire County's substantial losses in population and living wage jobs without taking into account that he is part of the problem as one of the Berkshires' failed leaders.  Smitty Pignatelli points out that state and local government has become more expensive in the Berkshires with a decades-long shrinking tax base - the worst of both worlds!  Why doesn't Smitty do something about it other than always complaining about it all?  The answer is because Smitty only takes care of Smitty by enriching himself at the public trough.

Note to Smitty Pignatelli.  My nearly 75 year old mom has Stage 4 metastatic breast cancer in her right lung and takes chemo pills for the rest of her life.  My mom was born, raised and spent most of her life in Pittsfield (Massachusetts), which means that she has GE's industrial chemical PCBs pollutants in her body that contributed to her having cancer three times in her adult life (1990, 2006/2007, and 2021).  Do you, Smitty Pignatelli, want to expose the people in the towns of Lee and Lenoxdale to the risk of GE's industrial chemicals PCBs pollutants?  Don't you understand what is at stake for the people who live there?  What kind of man are you, Smitty Pignatelli?  Is your trivial political career worth more than the public health of the people you represent in Boston's corrupt State House of Representatives?  I hope your heart will grow someday, Smitty!

As for Chrome Dome Adam Hinds, he purchased a $690,000 home with his wife in Amherst, Massachusetts, which is not in his Berkshire-based legislative district.  His first vote on Beacon Hill was for his own huge legislative pay raise.  He and Pittsfield State Representative Tricia Farley Bouvier have both openly supported raising state taxes during the K-shaped recovery/recession.  He is looking to run for high political office in 2022.  What is Chrome Dome going to run on?  Certainly not his public record!

Then there is Joe Biden's troubled 51 year old son, Hunter Biden.  He published a book this year of 2021 about how he used to smoke crack cocaine every 15 minutes, drown himself in alcohol, pay for sex from strippers and sex workers, and ran an alleged money laundering business operation where he took in $224 million in revenues from China, and millions of dollars from Russia and Ukraine, respectively.  Of course, both China and Russia are the U.S.A.'s adversaries.  An official U.S. Senate report said that Hunter Biden hired sex workers in Russia who may have been sex trafficked.  The Biden "Crime" Family are all worth tens of millions of dollars each without reasonable and/or legal explanation.  Joe Biden has grandchildren from multiple women Hunter Biden slept with, including a young woman stripper he tried to weasel his way out of paying child support to by Hunter Biden lying to a Judge by saying he wasn't the father of the stripper's baby.  The Judge ordered a paternity test, and Hunter Biden was the father of the stripper's baby.  Hunter Biden has at least 5 children by at least 3 different women.  Joe and Jill Biden should step down from the White House and take care of all of their grandchildren that Hunter Biden has neglected over the years.  But instead, Joe Biden is busy tanking our country, while saying he is proud of his last surviving son, Hunter Biden.  What a SAD JOKE!

What about Bill Clinton being on Jeffrey Epstein's private jet 26 times, Melinda Gates divorcing Bill Gates over Bill Gates questionable involvement with Jeffrey Epstein, the U.K.'s Prince Andrew's highly questionable involvement with Jeffrey Epstein?  Ghislaine Maxwell and her Attorneys say that have documented evidence on Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, the U.K.'s Prince Andrew and other rich and powerful men who are associated with Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking of minor girls.  Bill Clinton is already a convicted Felon twice over for perjury and suborning perjury.  Bill Clinton said he did nothing illegal with Jeffrey Epstein, but he has lied many times before about his sexual misconduct.  Like Melinda Gates, does Hillary Clinton know anything about her husband, Bill Clinton?  Did Hillary Clinton know about it when she ran for U.S. President in 2008 and 2016.  If so, did Hillary Clinton coverup Bill Clinton's 26 flight logs on Jeffrey Epstein's private jet and alleged sex trafficking crimes?  Did Hillary Clinton put her feminist ideals and political ambition to be elected U.S. President over the legal protections of minor girls that were allegedly sex trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein and the rich and powerful men - including Bill Clinton - who may have allegedly sexually exploited them?  What does that say about Hillary Clinton?

From Shitty Pignatelli to Chrome Dome to Hunter Biden to Bill and Hillary Clinton, I am disgusted with politics!

Best wishes,

Hello Patrick Fennell,

I believe that the EPA is the worst bureaucracy EVER because they are a bunch of liars whose corruption causes the deaths of millions of Americans every year to hazardous environmental pollution from big business and the military.  My mom has metastatic Stage 4 breast cancer in her right lung (for the rest of her life) and it may spread to other areas in her body.  She had cancer 3 times (1990, 2006/2007, 2021).  My mom was born and raised and spent most of her life in Pittsfield Massachusetts, which is now GE's dump that is still full of GE's cancer causing PCBs industrial chemicals, while the people of Lee and Lenoxdale are trying to stop Smitty Pignatelli and all of the other sellout Berkshire County Politicians from putting a third Berkshire County located GE toxic waste dump in the watershed inside of the polluted Housatonic River, which is the dumbest plan I ever heard of in my lifetime.

Behind my Enemy #1 Nuciforo ("Luciforo"), Smitty Pignatelli is the second worst elected politician EVER!  Smitty Pignatelli only does DISSERVICES to the people of Berkshire County, and his op-eds in the Dirty Bird (Berkshire Eagle) never account for his own failed public record in Boston where he almost always votes in the favor of the top-down and secretive House Speaker - who now is dictator Ronny Mariano.  When Smitty Pignatelli retires in the future, Massachusetts should put his picture front and center in the Hall of Shame full of all of the Commonwealth's corrupt and failed politicians.

Per Bill Gates, and all of the other rich and powerful men (Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, et al), allegedly having sex with sex trafficked minor women under the age of 18 who were allegedly purchased by Jeffrey Epstein with the assistance of Ghislaine Maxwell, I want to know the truth about it all already!  Bill Clinton is a former U.S. President who is a twice over Convicted Felon (Perjury, and Suborning Perjury), and his wife is Hillary Clinton, who was a First Lady, U.S. Senator from New York, Secretary of State, and candidate for U.S. President in 2008 and 2016.  If Bill Clinton had sex with these allegedly sex trafficked underage women and Hillary knew about it and covered it up for her own political ambitions to be elected U.S. President, then the public has a right to know the truth about them.  I also believe that if rich and powerful men had sex with sex trafficked minor women, then they should face the same or similar criminal and civil charges as Ghislaine Maxwell, who is a woman.  Otherwise, it is a total double standard of the Justice system.

I asked mothers of young women about Bill Clinton's history with young women, and the mothers told me that he is wrong and that Bill Clinton is fortunate that the young women he allegedly sexually exploited aren't their daughters.  What kind of message is this sending to our own country and the rest of the world?  A U.S. President, Bill Clinton, committed two felonies (Perjury, and Suborning Perjury) while he was in the Oval Office (Oral Orifice), and after he left the White House he was allegedly sexually exploiting minor women under the age of 18 and is recorded 26 times on Jeffrey Epstein's private flight logs.  The U.S. Government will look really bad when Ghislaine Maxwell stands for her trial by jury with Bill Clinton as one of the biggest subjects of her alleged sex trafficking crimes.  This is NUTS!

I get so upset about politics, so I have to sign off now.

Best wishes,

Jonathan Melle

I keep reading about Bill Clinton's association with the late Jeffrey Epstein, including Bill Clinton's 26 registered flight logs on Jeffrey Epstein's private jet.  I read that Ghislaine Maxwell and her Attorneys said that they have documented evidence against Bill Clinton and other rich and powerful men such as Bill Gates and the UK's Prince Andrew that she and her Attorneys will release at her upcoming trial by jury for alleged sex trafficking of minor women under the age of 18.  I would like to know if Bill Clinton sexually exploited minor women under the age of 18 who were allegedly sex trafficked by the late Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, despite the fact that the twice over Convicted Felon (Perjury & Suborning Perjury) Bill Clinton said that he did nothing illegal.  I also would like to know if Hillary Clinton knew about it and covered it up for her own political ambitions during her failed campaigns for U.S. President in 2008 and 2016.  If Hillary Clinton knew and covered it up, then her decades of advocating for women and children's human rights would all be a BIG LIE!  The same goes for Donald Trump's association with the late Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.  It will only be a matter of time before the truth comes out during the upcoming Ghislaine Maxwell trial by jury.

"Jeffrey Epstein Wanted To Flip On Bill Clinton To Save Himself According to New Book"

In his new book, “Too Famous: The Rich, the Powerful, the Wishful, the Damned, the Notorious – Twenty Years of Columns, Essays and Reporting,” Michael Wolff makes a bombshell claim that Jeffrey Epstein believed he could save himself by flipping on former President Bill Clinton.

According to the book, Epstein believed The Justice Department arrested him on order from then-President Trump because Trump wanted damaging information on the Clintons.

Wolff also says a deluded Epstein had another theory behind his arrest saying the Southern District of New York wanted information on Trump and wanted to squeeze him for it. It seems Epstein went down blaming everyone but himself for his troubles. 

From The Daily Mail:

Epstein was previously convicted of procuring a child for prostitution in 2008, but according to Wolff, he believed there were ‘two likely scenarios’ behind his 2019 arrest. 

‘The White House, through the Justice Department, was looking to press a longtime Republican obsession, and Trump ace-in-the-hole, and get Epstein to flip and reveal the sex secrets of Bill Clinton,’ he writes. 

‘Trump, if he was obsessed with Clinton, which he was, was also obsessed with what Epstein knew about Clinton.’ 

The other scenario was that prosecutors from the Southern District of New York, which were investigating Trump’s business affairs, ordered the arrest of Epstein to ‘pressure him to flip on Trump.’ 

Wolff writes that there were ‘many likely holes in these theories’ and the reality could have been that Epstein was ‘just one more fallen sexual villain.’  

‘No matter, in Epstein’s view – shared by [lawyer Reid] Weingarten – that did not mean there wasn’t, even in this climate, a deal to be made,’ the book states. 

Perhaps the most macabre moment in the book is Wolff’s claim that a few hours before his death, Epstein, who had already tried to kill himself once before while in prison, sent a note to a friend about his state of mind.

It read: ‘Pretty crazy. But still just hanging around – no pun intended.’  

Wolff reveals that months before his death he had visited Epstein’s $75million Upper East Side mansion where he bumped into Ehud Barak.

At the time, Barak – who served as Israel Prime Minister from 1999 to 2001 – was considering running for office again and would later form a new party that ran in the September 2019 Israeli elections.

Hello Patrick Fennell,

We are in mid-October of 2021.  One month from now, jury selection in the Ghislaine Maxwell trial by jury will begin.  Opening Statements will begin by late-November to early-December of 2021.  Ghislaine Maxwell and her Attorneys said that they have documented evidence against Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, the UK's Prince Andrew, and other rich and powerful men, including Donald Trump.  It is only a matter of time now until the federal court and public at large finds out the who, what, where, how and why of the alleged sex trafficking ring ran by the late Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

The U.S. Supreme Court's facade reads: "Equal Justice Under Law".  If we really have a Constitution and "Equal Justice Under Law" then the rich and powerful men who allegedly sexually exploited minor women under the age of 18 who were allegedly sex trafficked by the late Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell must all face justice for their horrible alleged sex crimes and related misconduct.  It should not matter that Bill Clinton is a former U.S. President, Bill Gates is a multibillionaire, Prince Andrew is from a Royal Family Dynasty, along with the other men with high class and status including Donald Trump.  If the allegations and evidence is presented in the coming months at Ghislaine Maxwell's trial by jury, then they must all face state and/or federal charges and felony indictments.

My holiday season prediction is that it will not be a happy holiday season for Bill Clinton and the other rich and powerful men during and after Ghislaine Maxwell's trial by jury.

Best wishes,

Jonathan A. Melle

Judge sets November for start of Ghislaine Maxwell's trial

A judge says Ghislaine Maxwell's trial will start in November on charges that she recruited teenage girls for Jeffrey Epstein to sexually abuse over a 10-year period

By Larry Neumeister, Associated Press, May 11, 2021

NEW YORK -- Ghislaine Maxwell’s trial will start in November on charges that she recruited teenage girls for financier Jeffrey Epstein to sexually abuse over a 10-year period, a judge said Tuesday.

Jury selection can occur in mid-November and opening statements will happen on Nov. 29, U.S. District Judge Alison J. Nathan wrote in an order.

The order was issued a day after prosecutors told the judge that both sides would be ready for trial in November, though defense lawyers preferred it begin on Nov. 8 while prosecutors wanted it to start on Nov. 29.

Nathan said jury selection can occur the week of Nov. 15.

The judge recently scrapped a July 12 trial date after defense lawyers complained that sex trafficking charges added in March left them insufficient time to investigate the new charges and prepare for trial.

Maxwell, 59, has been jailed at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn since last July, when she was arrested at a New Hampshire estate. Nathan has denied bail three times, twice rejecting a $28.5 million proposed package that would have required Maxwell to remain in a New York City dwelling with 24-hour armed guards.

Nathan said she believed Maxwell was a risk to flee despite the U.S. citizen's claims that she was willing to renounce her citizenship in England and France to prove her willingness to appear for trial.

Maxwell has pleaded not guilty to charges that she recruited teenage girls from 1994 to 2004 for Epstein to sexually abuse during encounters that sometimes were described as sexualized massages.

Prosecutors say their case hinges primarily on the testimony of four women who were abused, including two who say they were recruited when they were 14 years old.

Defense lawyers have challenged the charges on numerous grounds, though Nathan has rejected most of them. They have succeeded in severing perjury charges from those alleging sex abuse.

Epstein took his life in August 2019 in a federal Manhattan lockup as he awaited trial on sex trafficking charges.

October 20, 2021

Hello Alan Chartock,

I read your op-ed in The Berkshire Edge online newspaper today about the list of candidates who may run for Governor of New York in 2022.  I thought it was interesting that you included Hillary Clinton in the list after I had wrote to you that I received political emails predicting that she will run next year.

Ghislaine Maxwell's trial by jury will begin on November 29th, 2021 and will go on for weeks and possibly months.  Bill Clinton has 26 flight logs on the late Jeffrey Epstein's private jet.  Ghislaine Maxwell and her Attorneys said that they have documented evidence against Bill Clinton and other rich and powerful men who were allegedly associated with Jeffrey Epstein's alleged sex trafficking ring of minor women under the age of 18 who were allegedly purchased by Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell to be allegedly sexually exploited by older men such as allegedly Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, the UK Prince Andrew, Donald Trump, and others.

My feeling is that Hillary Clinton's rumored interest in running for Governor of New York will depend on what happens with Bill Clinton during and after Ghislaine Maxwell's upcoming trial by jury next month.  As for Andrew Cuomo being on the list to run for Governor of New York in 2022, he still needs to explain his alleged sexual misconduct, including allegedly putting his hands up much younger women's skirts.  The one dozen women who came forward about him all had similar allegations, and unless they conspiratorially colluded to frame Andrew Cuomo, it sure looks like their allegations have merit.

I don't know why disgraced politicians try to come back when new blood and new ideas are a much better alternative than everyone having to relive the past.  I wish career politicians were term limited so we could have real change instead of business as usual in government.  In closing, sometimes its good to retire from politics, especially after one has disgraced themselves in government.

Best wishes,

Jonathan A. Melle

"Epstein's shadow looms over jury selection in Maxwell sex crimes trial"

By Luc Cohen, Reuters, November 4, 2021 

NEW YORK — It has been two years since Jeffrey Epstein hanged himself in a Manhattan jail cell, but the publicity surrounding the deceased financier will make it hard to find an unbiased jury for former girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell’s upcoming sex abuse trial, according to her defense lawyers and legal experts

Prospective jurors began filling out 24-page questionnaires in federal court in Manhattan on Thursday to assess whether they can fairly judge Maxwell, a British socialite who prosecutors say recruited and groomed underage girls for Epstein to abuse.

Epstein, a well-connected money manager who once counted Britain’s Prince Andrew and billionaire Leon Black among his associates, died by suicide in a Manhattan jail in 2019 following his arrest on sex trafficking charges.

Maxwell’s lawyers have said “intense negative media coverage” of Maxwell and Epstein, including podcasts and documentaries on Netflix and other platforms, have tainted the jury pool for her trial, expected to start on Nov. 29.

Prosecutors say that Maxwell, 59, recruited and groomed four underage girls for Epstein to abuse from 1994 to 2004.

Maxwell, who has pleaded not guilty to the charges, is the highest-profile woman to be tried on sexual abuse charges since the start of the #MeToo movement.

Her lawyers have said this has fueled the “vitriolic” coverage about Maxwell since her July 2020 arrest in New Hampshire.

“The fact that a woman now stands trial for charges almost exclusively alleged against men heightens the interest and intrigue of this case,” they wrote in a court filing.

Roy Futterman, a director at trial consulting firm DOAR in New York, said that “Epstein is going to be such a huge figure in this trial, and there are so many preconceived notions about Epstein, that it’s going to be difficult for the defense to get people who can come in as a blank slate.”

The questionnaire that around 600 prospective jurors will complete asks what they have read or heard about Epstein and Maxwell, and about their own experiences with sexual abuse or assault.

In a video address played to jury candidates before they filled out the questionnaire, U.S. District Judge Alison Nathan said there would be significant press coverage of the trial.

“Some of you may have already heard about this case in the media, and that is OK,” Nathan said, before instructing them not to read about the case from this point on.

Maxwell was on the run from authorities when she was found hiding out in a luxury home in Bradford, N.H., on July 2, 2020. She had purchased the $1 million home, which sits on 156 acres in the northwestern Hillsborough County town, the previous December.

Jurors in U.S. criminal trials are prohibited from doing independent research about cases, in order to ensure they reach a verdict solely on the evidence presented in court.

Attorneys for the Mexican drug lord known as “El Chapo” last month urged an appeals court to overturn his 2019 conviction, arguing several jurors improperly followed media coverage of the trial.

In the Maxwell case, more prospective jurors were expected to fill out the questionnaire on Nov. 5 and Nov. 12. Some people will be called back beginning Nov. 16 for individual follow-up questioning by Nathan.

Jury consultants said that the lengthy questionnaire and follow-up questioning should make prospective jurors more comfortable discussing sensitive personal topics, and help lawyers weed out people who have preconceived notions about Maxwell’s guilt.

After the questionnaires are filled out, lawyers for both sides will send Nathan joint lists of jurors they agree should return for questioning, those they agree should not return, and candidates about which they have disputes. Those disputes will be resolved at a hearing before follow-up questioning.

When the process is complete, there will be a jury of 12 plus six alternates.

SOCIAL MEDIA POSTS

While many potential jurors will be familiar with the case, those who learned about it from news sources rather than entertainment offerings might be seen as less biased, said Christina Marinakis, director for jury research at Litigation Insights in Baltimore.

The questionnaire asks whether potential jurors have discussed the case on social media. Marinakis said both the prosecution and the defense will likely review their online posts to be sure.

For the defense, one challenge is that jurors familiar with Epstein may hold Maxwell to a higher standard because she is a woman, and because many of Epstein’s alleged victims were underage, said Melissa Gomez, president of MMG Jury Consulting in Philadelphia. Jurors with a negative view of Epstein may believe Maxwell had a special obligation to protect girls from him.

“It’s not solely going to be whether she actively participated, but, as a woman, did she fail to protect these other women?” Gomez said.

The defense might seek to seat men who view Maxwell’s accusers as willing participants in sexual activity with Epstein, rather than as victims, said Paul Applebaum, a criminal defense attorney in St. Paul, Minn.

“You want men on the jury who are still cavemen,” he said.

Hello Patrick Fennell,

I respect you, your political views, and your right to support Donald Trump in politics.  However, I could make the same claim(s) that Donald Trump is making.  I could say that I should be the sitting U.S. President instead of Joe Biden.  I could say that the 2020 presidential election was fraudulent and stolen from me due to corrupt Democratic Party operatives.  I could say that the sky is purple and the seas are pink.  I could say that I visited other Planets and Moons in the Solar System and beyond.  I could say that I should play basketball for the Boston Celtics.  I could say that I am friends with Warren Buffett and that he takes financial advice from me.  I could say anything that I want to say within the law because I have the Constitutional entitlement to exercise Free Speech.  Whether it is Donald Trump or Jon Melle making claims, either one of us has to prove our claims, such as Donald Trump has had over one year now to prove his claims in a court of law, which has yet to happen.  At some point, when a buffoon goes around telling big whopper stories, he or she has to prove that their words are more than hot air.

When politicians speak, they are usually only expelling hot air.  Please don't believe the words that come out of any politician's mouth.  Maryland Ed Markey told the voters in Massachusetts that he is going to save the world from global warming.  Over one year later, we will be paying around 60 percent more for home heating this upcoming winter of 2021/2022 than last winter.  Elizabeth Warren always says she is taking on Wall Street and fighting for Main Street, yet Wall Street indices are at record highs, while Main Street is at rock bottom.  Joe Biden says his most expensive federal spending bills in U.S. history are revenue neutral, but that would be like believing Pigs have Wings and they Fly around Unicorns.  Smitty Pignatelli writes lofty op-eds about Berkshire County not receiving enough state aid from Boston, but the truth is that Smitty voted himself a 40 percent legislative pay raise plus public perks in early-2017, along with the other 9 legislative pay raises plus public perks he collected since then.  Pittsfield Mayor Linda Tyer tells people that Pittsfield is "Vibrant and Dynamic", but she really lives in a millionaires-only gated community within feet of the Hancock border.  Politicians are full of shit, including Donald Trump!

Best wishes,

Jonathan A. Melle

Hello Patrick Fennell,

You are correct about the decades-long rise in inflation during the first 10 months plus of the Biden administration, as well as the debacle in Afghanistan that is going to reach humanitarian crisis proportions this upcoming winter of 2021/2022, and other problems such as the energy crisis and record high federal spending and federal budget deficits.  I agree with you on all of it.  Joe Biden is a failed U.S. President, billionaire John Kerry is full of hot air, and the Democrats in U.S. Congress are have a very low approval rating.

None of that makes Donald Trump's unproven claims true.  I believe that Donald Trump is a Nazi, and that his actions as U.S. President were racist, violent and even fascist.  I listen to all sides of politics within reason, and Nazi ideologies and tactics, racism, violence and fascism are all WRONG.  I believe in democracy, the rule of law instead of men, liberty and justice for all, and Human Rights for all Peoples and people of our country and the world.  I will NEVER support Donald Trump in politics.

Best wishes,

Hello Patrick Fennell,

Once again, I respect you, I wish you a Happy Veterans Day tomorrow, I always enjoy reading your political emails, and I respect that you support Donald Trump in politics.  Thank you for everything you do in your life and in politics.  I agree with a lot of what you have to say in politics.  I am sorry we have to agree to disagree about Donald Trump in politics.  I look forward to reading your political emails.  Please keep up your good work, especially telling off Smitty Pignatelli and other career politicians who do DISSERVICES to the people they are supposed to be representing in Boston and elsewhere in government.

Best wishes,

"Ghislaine Maxwell loses sixth bid for release from Brooklyn federal lockup"

By Molly Crane-Newman, New York Daily News, November 12, 2021

A judge has denied Ghislaine Maxwell bail for a sixth time, rejecting arguments from the British socialite that compared her legal troubles to those of Harvey Weinstein, Bill Cosby and Hannibal Lecter of “The Silence of the Lambs.”

Manhattan Federal Court Judge Alison Nathan ruled that Maxwell should remain behind bars for the same reasons she stated in previous rulings. She’s written that Maxwell, who is accused of grooming underage girls for Epstein’s sexual abuse in the mid-1990s and early 2000s, has not been candid about her finances and is a flight risk. Maxwell had proposed a $28.5 million bail package in exchange for home confinement.

Maxwell has long complained that she can’t get a fair trial and that she’s treated worse than other notorious perverts.

“Harvey Weinstein and Bill Cosby were permitted to walk into the courthouse each day of their respective trials. Not until their verdicts were rendered, adjudging them guilty, were they detained,” lawyer Bobbi Sternheim wrote.

“They were accorded dignity to defend themselves. Ms. Maxwell has not.”

Sternheim likened Maxwell’s conditions of confinement to those of the famed cannibalistic serial killer Hannibal Lecter — minus the face guard.

The lawyer has described Maxwell’s digs at the Metropolitan Detention Complex, where she’s been held since her July 2020 arrest, as “the most humiliating circumstances that I have ever experienced in many decades of federal criminal practice.”

Nathan also turned down a sealed request from the defense related to how she’ll be transported from jail to the courthouse, promising Maxwell will be hauled to trial each day “in a way that is humane, proper and consistent with security protocols.”

The jailed socialite will turn 60 behind bars on Christmas Day, which lawyers estimate will fall midway through her trial beginning Nov. 29.

Maxwell has long maintained that MDC staff mentally and physically abuse her while keeping her under round-the-clock surveillance. She says the feds scapegoated her when Epstein killed himself inside a Manhattan federal prison cell. She’s pleaded not guilty.

Prosecutors say Maxwell enticed girls as young as 14 to have sex with the Brooklyn-born financier, coaxing them into his orbit with luxury shopping sprees and by paying for travel and educational opportunities.

November 16, 2021

I keep reading that the federal justice system will try Ghislaine Maxwell for allegedly sex trafficking underage girls at her trial by jury beginning on November 29th, 2021.  What about the men who allegedly sexually exploited these alleged sex trafficked underage girls?  Who are the men in question?  Are they former U.S. President Bill Clinton, billionaire Bill Gates, the U.K. Prince Andrew, among other rich and powerful men?  I believe it is unfair for only the women, who is Ghislaine Maxwell, to face up to 40 years in prison, which would be a life sentence for her, while the men who allegedly sexually exploited these alleged sex trafficked underage girls go uncharged.

"Ghislaine Maxwell smiles, jokes in court before jury selection"

By Patricia Hurtado and Mary Biekert, Bloomberg News, November 15, 2021

NEW YORK — Ghislaine Maxwell appeared smiling and relaxed in a New York courtroom where hundreds of potential jurors will soon be winnowed down to the dozen who will decide her fate.

Maxwell came to Manhattan federal court Monday dressed in her own clothes, rather than prison fatigues, for the first time since she pleaded not guilty to trafficking underage girls for sexual abuse by her former boyfriend, Jeffrey Epstein. Wearing a black turtleneck sweater and gray slacks, the British socialite chatted and joked with her defense team. After the hearing ended, Maxwell leaned in and whispered something to lawyer Jeffrey Pagliuca, who laughed and brushed strands of hair out of her face with his hand.

Monday’s hearing largely focused on the logistics by which the jury in the case will be selected. U.S. District Judge Alison Nathan said 231 potential jurors, pared down from an initial pool of 600, will return Tuesday for individual questioning. Jury candidates previously filled out questionnaires inquiring about their knowledge of the case as well as whether they or anyone close to them had ever been a victim or accused of sexual harassment, abuse or assault.

Nathan has said she wants to have a jury of 12 people and six alternates hear the case, with opening statements set to begin Nov. 29 and the trial continuing through the holidays. Maxwell faces as many as 40 years in prison if convicted on the most serious charge against her.

-----

November 30, 2021

My thoughts on the trial by jury of Ghislaine Maxwell are that she is being portrayed as a persecuted scapegoat for all of the sexually abusive men who allegedly sexually exploited the sex trafficked 14-year-old girls versus her being portrayed as a predator of 14-year-old sex trafficked girls whom she proverbially fed to the wolves in Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking ring.  Ghislane Maxwell faces up to 80 years in federal prison if she is convicted of the sex trafficking criminal charges, which would really mean life in prison.  Her trial by jury in federal court in NYC that began on 29-Nov-2021 will last from 4 weeks to 6 weeks.  Her defense Attorneys argue that too much time has passed for the sexually exploited women to be able to provide accurate testimony, and that the sexually exploited women may be unduly influenced by the financial legal settlements from Jeffrey Epstein's estate and the other rich and powerful men who allegedly sexually exploited them.  Of course, like everyone else, Ghislaine Maxwell is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law by a jury of her peers.  I believe that the public has a right to know who the rich and powerful men are who Ghislaine Maxwell allegedly sex trafficked the 14-year-old girls to for sexual abuse and exploitation.  I believe that it is the height of SEXISM for one the woman - Ghislaine Maxwell - to face federal criminal charges when there are many men who were involved in Jeffrey Epstein's alleged sex trafficking ring.  In closing, the law should apply to everyone regardless of one's class and status in society, which does NOT seem to be the case here as the rich and powerful men go uncharged.

There are many emotionally disturbed and troubled school children throughout our country.  There are also many guns in the wrong hands in our country.  It is not a good combination, obviously, given all of the tragic school shootings over the past couple of decades.

When such a child or young adult has social problems, they are rewarded, while a child or young adult who is a model student, they have to sacrifice and pay for their success.  For example, if a teenage girl or young woman gets pregnant and has a child, she is given a free apartment, free healthcare, free food, and so on.  However, if a teenage girl or young woman is a model student and takes her life seriously, she will have around $100,000 in student loans with no guarantee of a rewarding career when she is an adult.

On another subject, the Ghislaine Maxwell federal trial by jury should include the rich and powerful men who allegedly sexually abused and exploited 14-year-old sex trafficked girls being charged, too.  The public has a right to know who these rich and famous men are. For example, former U.S. President Bill Clinton had 26 flight logs on Jeffrey Epstein's private jet.  Did Bill Clinton allegedly sexually abuse and exploit allegedly sex trafficked 14-year-old girls who are associated with Epstein and Maxwell?

Tying it all together, we have many thousands of emotionally disturbed and troubled school children, too many guns in the wrong hands, and an ongoing sex trafficking trial where it is alleged that Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell and rich and powerful men sexually abused and exploited 14-year-old girls.  We live in a f*ck*d up society!

Now that the federal Prosecutors rested their case against Ghislaine Maxwell for her alleged role in the alleged sex trafficking ring ran by the now deceased billionaire Jeffrey Epstein, I will be interested in reading about what Maxwell's defense Attorneys will say to the Judge and Jury in NYC in the next couple of weeks.  In particular, I would like to know who the men were who allegedly sexually abused and sexually exploited the then 14-year-old girls who were allegedly purchased for sex by Jeffrey Epstein.  Bill Clinton had 26 flight log entries on Jeffrey Epstein's private jet.  Melinda Gates divorced billionaire Bill Gates over his history of sexual misconduct with women and possibly the aforementioned then 14-year-old girls.  The UK's Prince Andrew has a sordid reputation with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.  Once again, I believe it is sexist and unfair that only the woman - Ghislaine Maxwell - to stand trial while the rich and powerful men go uncharged.  Furthermore, I believe that Epstein and Maxwell alleged sex trafficking ring is part of a much bigger global sex trafficking ring that the general public is not being told about.  A lot of things about Ghislaine Maxwell's legal case stinks of much larger serious sex crimes both in the USA and abroad.

December 14, 2021

I believe that the Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell alleged sex trafficking ring is part of a larger global sex trafficking ring that allegedly includes the UK Prince Andrew, billionaire Bill Gates, and former U.S. President Bill Clinton, among other rich and powerful men.  The news about Epstein and Maxwell indicates that they allegedly purchased and groomed 14-year-old girls over a number of years and allegedly sexually abused and sexually exploited them with a ring of rich and powerful men who remain uncharged while Ghislaine Maxwell is sitting in her federal trial by jury in downtown NYC.  Bill Clinton had 26 flight logs on billionaire Jeffrey Epstein's private jet.  Melinda Gates divorced Bill Gates over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein.  The UK's Prince Andrew has a sordid history with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.  If the evidence is proven beyond a reasonable doubt, then Ghislaine Maxwell should be found guilty.  The next question would then be: Who were the rich and powerful men who allegedly sexually abused and sexually exploited the then 14-year-old girls, and will they be charged for their alleged crimes?  No one is above the law no matter one's class and status in society, including the rich and powerful men such as Prince Andrew, Bill Gates and Bill Clinton, and the like.  Bill Clinton is already a Convicted Felon twice over for Perjury and Suborning Perjury.  Bill Gates had many women sign NDAs so he wouldn't be charged with sexual misconduct.  Prince Andrew is facing civil suits for his alleged sexual misconduct.  Other rich and powerful men who are associated with Epstein and Maxwell were removed from their CEO or board positions with wealthy businesses.  This who thing stinks from here to the high heavens!

Jonathan A. Melle

December 27, 2021

Sarcasm: Ghislaine Maxwell should be found GUILTY on all charges because she groomed rich and powerful men such as 2x Convicted Felon former U.S. President Bill Clinton (for perjury & suborning perjury), Big Tech Billionaire Bill Gates, the U.K.'s Prince Andrew and others to fly to Jeffrey Epstein's pedophile island over and over again to have sex with teenage girls as young as 14 years old.  Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, Prince Andrew, et al, were all traumatized by Ghislaine Maxwell twisting their arms to sexually abuse and sexually exploit 14-year-old girls.  Ghislaine Maxwell should be made example of for her role in making these otherwise innocent rich and powerful men go to Jeffrey Epstein's pedo-island to f*ck & s*ck away with 14-year-old girls.  If it wasn't for Ghislaine Maxwell, then Bill Clinton would never have had sex with those underage women because Bill Clinton never cheated on Hillary Clinton - yeah right, Bill Gates would never have had to have all of the women in his life sign NDAs so he wouldn't be charged with sexual misconduct, nor would he have had sex with all of those underage women on pedo-island, and Prince Andrew would have stayed in the United Kingdom with his d*ck in his own pants instead of in the virginal pants of all of those underage women on pedo-island.  It is all Ghislaine Maxwell's fault, and only she should have stood federal trial by jury in downtown Manhattan, NYC, while all of the victimized rich and powerful men got away with sexually abusing and exploiting 14-year-old girls at Jeffrey Epstein's pedo-island.  Let only the woman, named Ghislaine Maxwell, take the fall for all of the rich and powerful men she victimized by making them have sex over and over again with 14-year-old girls at pedo-island.

December 29, 2021

Someone on the blog Planet Valenti asked the following question:

And now that Maxwell has been found guilty, if she turns states witness, to reduce her time, will she be Arkansized like Epstein?????

My response is that the Ghislaine Maxwell federal trial by jury made no sense to me.  The premise of the federal criminal charges against her was that she lured underage girls as young as 14-years-old to be sexually abused and sexually exploited in Jeffrey Epstein's pedo-island home(s) whereby Jeffrey Epstein, Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, the U.K.'s Prince Andrew, and other rich and powerful men ILLEGALLY participated in a sex trafficking ring.  The reason why her federal trial by jury made no sense to me is that she did NOT twist the rich and powerful men's arms to go to Jeffrey Epstein's pedo-island home over and over again for sex with 14-year-old girls.  Instead, Ghislaine Maxwell was used by these rich and powerful men so they could sexually abuse and sexually exploit 14-year-old girls.  What would have happened to Ghislaine Maxwell if she exposed these rich and powerful men for the perverts and sexual deviants we all know they are?  She would have not been around to stand trial by jury in downtown NYC this holiday season of 2021.  If Ghislaine Maxwell turns state witness and exposes the obvious truth about the rich and powerful men's sex trafficking ring, she won't be around to testify at Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, Prince Andrew, and all of the other rich and powerful men's federal trials by jury.  Bill Clinton has put so many people in uncomfortable and complex legal situations because he is a pervert and sexual deviant.  Bill Clinton should have NEVER served as U.S. President!  Why does Hillary Clinton always stand by her man?  Lastly, why is it that it is always the woman who always pays, while the men walk free?

Donald Trump is the political leader of the alt-right White Nationalist movement, which is really Nazism, in the U.S.A.  Donald Trump had neo-Nazis work for his presidential campaigns and administration.  Donald Trump's racism was evident during and after the Charlottesville Virginia hate march, and again during the January 6th [2021] insurrection on and in Capitol Hill.  I read that Trump's MAGA protesters plan to march on Capitol Hill on January 6th, 2022, and that the military and police are preparing for violence.  I believe that Trump's immigration policies were Crimes Against Humanity, especially when the Fed's ripped months-old babies from their mother's arms.  What happened to Human Rights, the Constitution, Democracy, and the Rule of Law?  Trump failed to stand for our nation's highest ideals prior to, during and after his presidency.  Donald Trump equals Adolf Hitler!  I am grateful that Donald Trump wasn't in the Oval Office during the FDR presidency.  I get picked on for being a disabled Veteran, but Donald Trump never served in the U.S. Armed Forces, and he received 5 deferments, including one for his bone spurs.  Donald Trump criticized John McCain, who was a war hero.  It is always the buffoons like Donald Trump who are made into false heroes by their demagoguery and propaganda.  As for Donald Trump being associated with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, I wouldn't be surprised if he sexually abused and exploited underage teenage girls like Bill Clinton and other rich and powerful men allegedly did.  I hope that Ghislaine Maxwell won't be murdered like Jeffrey Epstein most likely was murdered to cover the tracks of all of the rich and powerful men sexual deviants and perverts.  It may just be that buffoons like Bill Clinton and Donald Trump may end up in state or federal prison if Ghislaine Maxwell doesn't end up dead like Jeffrey Epstein.  Why do buffoons go into politics?  That is all we seem to get in the government we do NOT deserve.

Hillary Clinton should not run for any public office again because she is a total "feminist" hypocrite with her absolute loyalty to her sexually deviant and bald faced liar husband Bill Clinton, who is a twice over Convicted Felon (for Perjury and Suborning Perjury), a sexual harasser of women, he is the Prez who turned the Oval Office into the Oral Orifice (where Monica Lewinsky gave him blow jobs after he put his cigar in her vagina and then puffed away on it while Monica was puffing away on him under the resolute desk), who has 26 flight logs on Jeffrey Epstein's private jet, who allegedly had sex with sex trafficked girls as young as 14 years old on Jeffrey Epstein's pedo-island and possibly elsewhere, and so on.  Hillary Clinton is fake!  Bill Clinton is a Perv!  They are a pair for the ages!  No more Bill & Hillary Clinton, please; thank you.  Just retire already and go far away from the Swamp!

"Mother of Hunter Biden's child testifies in financial investigation"

By Michael Lee, Fox News via Yahoo! News, February 16, 2022

The mother of Hunter Biden’s three-year-old daughter testified in front of a federal grand jury investigating the president's son's finances.

Thirty-year-old Lunden Roberts became the latest to testify in response to subpoenas issued in the Department of Justice's investigation into Biden's finances, according to reporting from the Daily Mail.

Roberts testified in front of the grand jury in President Biden's home state of Delaware Tuesday, declining to speak to reporters after emerging from the courthouse.

Biden has been paying child support to Roberts retroactive to November 2018 after an Arkansas judge ruled that he is the "biological and legal father" of Roberts' child with near scientific certainty."

The president's son's finances have been the subject of consistent scrutiny in recent years, with a Fox Business report last month revealing emails that showed Biden's equity firm had ties to the Chinese Communist Party.

Lawmakers from both parties have called for an investigation into Biden's finances, with Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., demanding Attorney General Merrick Garland appoint a special counsel to investigate Biden.

"The Attorney General should immediately appoint a special counsel to investigate Joe and Hunter Biden's business dealings with Communist China," Blackburn said earlier this month. "Joe and Hunter have been long intertwined with Beijing and profited off shady business deals with the CCP."

Biden initially denied being the father of the child that was born in August 2018, claiming in a 2021 memoir that he had "no recollection" of Robert or the "encounter" that led to the birth of their child. He later agreed to pay child support retroactive to the child's birth, a move Roberts' attorney praised at the time.

"He's doing the right thing by finally stepping up and paying what he should've been paying," Roberts' attorney, Clinton Lancaster, said in Jan. 2020. "He's going to begin paying monthly child support. He's going to pay retroactive child support back to November of 2018. And he's going to pay attorney's fees and costs."

What about the newest twist in the ongoing Jeffrey Epstein story?  Jean-Luc Brunel was recently found dead in a French prison cell....  How big was/is the sex trafficking ring of the then-14-year-old and older girls/women who were raped, sexually abused and sexually exploited by Jeffrey Epstein and company?  What about Bill Clinton's 26 flight logs on Jeffrey Epstein's private jet?  Bill Clinton is already a twice over Convicted Felon (for Perjury and Suborning Perjury).  Talk about CONSPIRACIES!  Lastly, why is only the woman, Ghislaine Maxwell, in prison, while the estimated 215 men walk free?  Will she survive this in the months and years to come, or will she be "Arkansas-homicided" in the false names of Hillary and Bill Clinton?

Some/many Swamp Republicans supported the January 6th, 2021, insurrection on and inside of Capitol Hill that was caused by Donald Trump's BIG LIE.  5 innocent people, including a Capitol Hill Police Officer, died during the mob riot where the white domestic terrorists tried but fortunately failed to murder/assassinate then Vice President Mike Pence, Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi, and other important Members of U.S. Congress.  Trump's racist White Nationalist MAGA (alt right, Nazi, hate) political movement has caused an increase in domestic terrorist by white power hate groups both at home and abroad.  The Republicans political lines of attack on Ketanji Brown Jackson overlook their own party's leadership failures.  If I were her, I would throw it all back in the Republican Party's face!  Lastly, why is it always the woman - such as Ghislaine Maxwell and not the estimated 215 pedophile men (allegedly including former U.S. President Bill Clinton) who allegedly sexually abused/raped 14-year-old girls - who pays, while the men (such as Hunter Biden and other political brats like him) walk scot-free?

Hello Patrick Fennell,

Thank you for replying to my political email about Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson.  On the legal issue of pedophiles and child porn, it is my understanding that she upheld the law and used her judicial discretion that she is entitled to use.  All criminal acts of violent rioting should be treated equally under the law.  I believe in nonviolent protest when the government is wrong and/or indifferent.  I don't have a clear answer on the black Capitol Hill Police Officer who shot and killed Ashli Babbitt during the 1/6/2021 Capitol Hill Insurrection.  Tragically, five people, including a Capitol Hill Police Officer, were needlessly killed by the Trump inspired mob of white domestic terrorists that tried but failed to kill then V.P. Mike Pence and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, among other Members of U.S. Congress.  On the issue of child pornography, I believe that people who violate the law should be indicted and punished fairly, legally and equally.  On the issue of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson being a black woman, I am not a fan of quotas and affirmative action, but I am happy to see a black woman being nominated to the U.S. Supreme Court for the first time in U.S. history.  I also believe that it is wrong for only the woman to be called out for alleged wrongdoing, while the men always get a free pass, including the hypocritical Republican U.S. Senators questioning Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson while their own political party is wrong for supporting the racist White Nationalist movement to build upon its Trump base, among other issues.  I believe that discrimination and reverse discrimination are always wrong, of course, but Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson is qualified for the job based on the merit of her legal background and experience.  I disagree with the Republican Party's political lines of attacks against her because they are really sending political messages to Trump's base of political extremists and racist MAGA supporters for their support in the 2022 midterm elections.  The Democratic Party, including Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden, has a long history of systemic racism.  Hillary's past use of the term Super-Predators really meant Niggers in the mid-1990s.  Joe Biden's history of racism has been documented for nearly 50 years in the Swamp, including his then support of Bill Clinton's racist crime bill that he and Hillary helped to pass back in the mid-1990s.  I don't understand why the Democratic Party, Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden get a pass on their history of systemic racism in the Swamp, while only the Republican Party is called racist by the so-called woke MSM that is in bed with authoritarian China and their blatant Human Rights violations all for the Almighty Dollar.  Corrupt career politicians on all levels put on a fake show for the cameras, but we all know that they only care about money and power because we regular folks always get the proverbial shaft from them, while they enrich themselves and their campaign donors and political backers at the public trough.

Best wishes,

Now that Ghislaine Maxwell has been sentenced to 20 years in federal prison for grooming 14-year-old girls to be sexually abused and raped by 215 rich and powerful men - allegedly including twice Convicted Felon Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, and the U.K.'s Prince Andrew - will any of the aforementioned men face criminal charges for allegedly being in Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking ring?  Or will it only be the woman who pays?  Will Ghislaine Maxwell be murdered in prison to keep the men safe?  Was Jeffrey Epstein murdered in prison to keep the men safe?  What about the man who may have been murdered in prison in France similar to Jeffrey Epstein's suspicious suicide behind bars?  Was Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking ring part of a larger international sex trafficking ring?  How many rich and powerful men are part of these sex trafficking rings around the world?  How big is all of this?  Why don't we have answers to these questions?

Hello Dirty Bird (Berkshire Eagle) editors,

I read the Eagle's editorial about the collapse and bankruptcy of the FTX cryptocurrency exchange.  How did somewhere around $32 billion disappear overnight?  Who were the people involved in this Ponzi Scheme?  Were they corrupt politicians?  Were they adversarial foreign governments?  Was it a criminal enterprise?  Is it all of the above?

Why did Elizabeth Holmes get sentenced to 11+ years in prison for losing a little less than $1 billion in her financial fraud scheme with Theranos, while much bigger players in the financial world go uncharged and unpunished?  Elizabeth Holmes lost a little less than $1 billion in investments, while the FTX cryptocurrency exchange lost somewhere around $32 billion overnight.

Lastly, did the Enron CEO Ken Lay really die of a heart attack or is he really in hiding somewhere in South America?  Don't forget that 22 years ago in 2000, Ken Lay was the single largest campaign donor to George W. Bush's campaign coffers.  When will it ever end?

Hello Patrick Fennell,

Please read the newsletter, below, that states that Former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried, who flew to Argentina, is one of the Democratic Party's top campaign donors.  How did this 30-year-old man lose $32 billion overnight?  My guess is that the Democratic Party's elites, along with adversarial foreign governments, along with organized criminal enterprises, took the loot and ruined this young man's life in the process.  What is worse is that anyone who invested their own money into the bankrupt FTX cryptocurrency exchange have no legal protections and their investments are lost forever.

Would you trust a politician, especially a Democrat, with your money, Pat?  I would NOT!

Best wishes,

Jonathan A. Melle

"House committee to hold hearings over FTX Group collapse"

Gophercentral newsletter: Progressive Review, November 20, 2022

The House Financial Services Committee announced Wednesday it plans to hold hearings in December to investigate the collapse of cryptocurrency exchange FTX Group.

The Committee expects to call the company's former CEO Sam Bankman-Fried, as well as a host of other witnesses, its chairwoman Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., said in a statement Wednesday.

"The fall of FTX has posed tremendous harm to over one million users, many of whom were everyday people who invested their hard-earned savings into the FTX cryptocurrency exchange, only to watch it all disappear within a matter of seconds," Waters said in the statement.

"Unfortunately, this event is just one out of many examples of cryptocurrency platforms that have collapsed just this past year. That's why it is with great urgency that I, along with my colleague Ranking Member [Patrick] McHenry, announce the Committee's intention to hold a hearing to investigate the collapse of FTX."

The collapse of the cryptocurrency exchange was sudden and made national headlines. FTX Group and its 130 affiliated companies, tweeted Friday that it has commenced voluntary Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings.

The day before, FTX reopened withdrawals after they had been stopped for two days. It then said that "trading may be halted on FTX U.S. in a few days." Earlier this year, FTX had been valued at $32 billion.

Bankman-Fried has since resigned and retreated from the public eye. The 30-year-old routinely sought the limelight, becoming one of the Democratic Party's top donors.

"As Chairwoman of the Financial Services Committee, I have led the effort in examining and investigating the digital assets marketplace, and know that we need legislative action to ensure that digital assets entities cannot operate in the shadows outside of robust federal oversight and clear rules of the road," Waters said Wednesday.

"I look forward to holding this important hearing, and uncovering all that Congress must do to ensure this never happens again."

McHenry, R-N.C., said he appreciated Waters' bipartisan approach to delivering accountability.

On Saturday, Bankman-Fried posted a message saying he was in the Bahamas. However, Flightradar24, a flight tracker that tracks planes all over the world in real-time tracked his plane to Argentina.

The flight to Buenos Aires became the most-tracked flight in the app's history, following the Gulfstream G450 private jet from the Bahamas to Argentina. It surpassed the August record set by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's flight to Taiwan in August.

The company said Friday that Bankman-Fried and "many employees" of the FTX Group in various countries are expected to continue with the company to assist operations during the bankruptcy.

U.S. Catholic Bishops rebuke of U.S. President Joe Biden

June 22, 2021

Joe Biden is the U.S.A.'s second Catholic U.S. President.  The first was J.F.K.  The U.S. Catholic Bishops are rebuking Joe Biden for his liberal views on abortion.  I believe that the U.S. Catholic Bishops are using the "Wedge Issue" of abortion to fire up the conservative cultural Catholic movement that pits conservative Catholics against other Catholics and many non-Catholics.  I believe that the conservative cultural Catholic movement is wrong because it takes away from all of the good deeds that the Catholic Church does in society and the world.  The Catholic Church works for social and economic justice, they fight for the poorest and neediest people who need our help and don't have a voice, they educate the masses with their over 2,000 years of wisdom and moral beliefs, and they spread the word of Jesus Christ.  I believe that if men, which compromise ALL of the top leaders of the Catholic Church, do not want abortion, then men should not have sex with women unless men are willing to sacrifice at least 20 years of men's time and money to provide for the mother and the child.  Men should be taught about birth control, and that there is no form of birth control that is 100 percent effective to stop a woman from becoming pregnant.  All it takes is for a man's sperm to reach and fertilize a woman's egg for a pregnancy to occur.  I have no faith in Joe Biden because he is a Swamp career politician of nearly 50 years who used his power and money (mostly from China via alleged money launderer suspect Hunter Biden) to become the 46th U.S. President after running for the Oval Office since 1988, or for the past 32 years.  Joe Biden has killed tens of thousands of energy jobs in the U.S.A., and he has had record level inflation by spending $6 trillion federal tax dollars in his first 100 days in the Oval Office, while still pushing to spend trillions of dollars more on his infrastructure and jobs legislation that is being held up by the Republican U.S. Senators' use of the filibuster, plus he filed a $6 trillion fiscal year 2022 federal budget proposal with U.S. Congress.   In closing, I wish the Catholic Church would stop its conservative cultural Catholic movement once and for all, and instead focus on helping and educating the poor while spreading the word of Jesus Christ.  I wish Joe Biden would stop killing so many American energy jobs, and be realistic and stop spending record amounts of federal tax dollars that is contributing to record high levels of inflation in 2021.

Hello Patrick Fennell,

I agree with you that Joe Biden is not supported by the Catholic Church for his positions on reproductive rights, especially his support for abortion.  But the Catholic Church itself is a display of moral hypocrisy and patriarchal hierarchy where Catholic women are systemically second class citizens who are not allowed to be Priests on up to the Pope.

I respect the Catholic faith, but my views on human nature and human behavior are more lenient and different than their rigid beliefs.  For example, young men need to masturbate as a matter of their health, and when a young man tries not to masturbate, he ends up walking around with an erection and/or having wet dreams with ejaculation(s).  Yet, the Catholic Church still teaches young men that masturbation is a mortal sin.  Women need birth control for their health and reproductive needs, and abortion is more often a medical decision than a birth control decision for women.  Yet, the Catholic Church teaches women that because sex is a mortal sin, that women must forgo their reproductive healthcare decisions, which could even lead to their deaths.  The Catholic Church has engaged in decades-long coverups of its own sexual abuse scandals that have caused great harm to many thousands of sexually exploited churchgoers, especially young children.  Yet, the Catholic Church targets pro choice politicians such as John Kerry and Joe Biden instead of keeping their own house in order.  John Kerry and Joe Biden should be the least of the Catholic Church's worries.

To answer your question if we were better off during the Trump administration than the little over 8 months of the Biden administration, I believe that both administrations were/are failures in presidential leadership.  Trump's deficit spending added $8 trillion to the U.S. national debt in 4 years, while Biden's deficit spending will add between double to triple that red ink-filled financial figure.  Trump was better on energy and inflation, but worse on foreign relations, especially with Iran but also with our closest allies in Europe. Both Trump and Biden are horrible racists.  Trump's "Grab women by the pussy" hot mic remark and other sexist remarks against women were terrible.  I wish neither Trump nor Biden were/are presidents!

Best wishes,

Hello Patrick Fennell,

I do not know all of the facts about Tara Reade's allegations of her allegedly being sexually assaulted by Joe Biden that may or may not have occurred a long time ago.  From what I read about her, she is a bit of a con artist and huckster, but that doesn't mean she is lying about her allegations of sexual assault against Joe Biden sometime in 1992 - 1994, which is nearly 30 years ago now.  Joe Biden denied her allegations, but so doesn't nearly everyone else out there deny their alleged wrongdoing and/or illegal behavior.  It is very rare that one finds a person who admits that their actions were wrong and accepts the consequences of their wrongdoing and/or illegal behavior.  Usually everyone but the wrongdoer has to pay for the wrongdoer's actions until the wrongdoer is brought to justice.

I am a non-Catholic, but I respect the Catholic Church because they fight for the poor and marginalized people and causes that the elites don't really care about, they believe in education, ethics and morals, and they spread the word of Jesus Christ to the world.  I do NOT like their rigidity, and their moral views should not have to be followed by all people and politicians alike.  People and politicians are allowed to have their own conscience that are different than the Catholic Church's moral views.  Even Jesus Christ said that we are all sinners, but for us to stop sinning and live a moral life.  Jesus Christ preached love, compassion and understanding.  We all need to stop being on one side of the proverbial fence and start to unite with love, compassion and understanding.  That is a beautiful message that I hope is heard, shared and followed.

I believe in families, and that hopefully a married man and woman may love their children.  If I had sex with a woman who became pregnant from my sperm, I would hope she would not have an abortion, but when I decided to be intimate with her, I have to respect her reproductive decisions, including her right to have an abortion.  As a man, the best decision I can make is for me to not have sex with a woman so that she won't become pregnant from my sperm and then she would have to make her reproductive decisions, including her right to have an abortion.  If men want to end abortion, then men should stop having sex with women.  Men cannot pass laws in Congress or the Supreme Court criminalizing abortion to stop women from having abortions because women will never stop having abortions.  I wish every child and their families have a chance to live a rewarding life full of love and security, but my wishes for a perfect world will never come true in the real world we all live in.

Like you, I am a loving and proud Uncle.  My nieces always bring love, joy and happiness to my heart.

Best wishes,

Jonathan Melle

Christmas Eve, 2023

Around 2,000 years ago, Rabbi Jesus Christ was a persecuted Jewish man who Christians believe to be the Son of God as a matter of their Christian Faith.  JFK, and now Joe Biden, are the U.S.A.'s only two Catholic U.S. Presidents out of the 45 U.S. Presidents so far.  The ultimate Moral Hypocrite Donald Trump is making controversial comments claiming that Joe Biden is directing the FBI to persecute traditionalist Catholics due to their conservative stance against abortion that may lead to political violence and even domestic terrorism, and that the "DIE" programs are meant to subvert the religious right that more likely than not votes for Republican Party candidates.

What is Donald Trump doing to Joe Biden here?  It is called "Cultural Conflict".  Let us remember the three layers of conflict and violence, please: The bottom layer are direct actions such as verbal and physical assaults; The middle layer are structural assaults such as homelessness, joblessness, poverty and the underclass, and distressed communities; the top layer are cultural assaults such as sexism, racism, hate, religious intolerance, and divide and conquer for the elites to win at any cost.

The ideal model of the human condition is that we do not verbally assault one another, that we do not physically assault one another, that we do not have people living without a roof over their heads, that we do not have people without access to employment, that we have programs and policies to limit poverty and the underclass, that we transform distressed communities into middle-class ones by supporting career politicians who invest in people and communities instead of the elites voting to enrich themselves at the public trough, that we do not have people being hurt based on their gender/or and their race, that we unlearn hate, that we tolerate all religions, and that we know that divide and conquer is a cruel tactic that is akin to putting us common people on a chess board as pawns for the elites to win at any cost.

The Golden Rule: Everyone is treated both SAFELY and FAIRLY in the world.  Donald Trump's cultural conflicts are the opposite of the Golden Rule.  Donald Trump is trying to divide us in order to conquer all of us because he always tries to win at any cost.  Look at all of the people who were close to Donald Trump who ended up paying for his cut throat tactics in business and politics.  It is fair to say that Donald Trump does NOT treat everyone both SAFELY and FAIRLY.  In fact, his words are similar to the words of Adolf Hitler around 100 years ago.

It is always a demagogue like Donald Trump - who openly cheated on all three of his wives, paid off his mistresses to stay silent, who has 5 children by 3 women, who declared multiple bankruptcies in his failed businesses, who refuses to release his tax returns to the public, who instigated the insurrection on Capitol Hill whereby 5 people were killed, who uses Hitler's words in his controversial political speeches, who favors authoritarian regimes around the world, who was twice impeached but not convicted, who is facing 91 criminal indictments in multiple court cases, who points his finger at his political adversaries without looking at himself in the mirror of self-reflection because he believes he is a perfect narcissist, who added a little less than $8 trillion to the U.S. national deficit in 4 years, and so on - who is a perfect illustration of MORAL HYPOCRISY!
