Gold is currently up $30.50. Bitcoin is collapsing as are the world’s stock markets. Biden’s wag the dog moment will cause a temporary diversion of the fraudulent election, hyperinflation and the economic collapse.

After driving all night and half of the next day, I sat in the car, looking out at the scene of the People’s Convoy; dirt parking lots, lots of wind in excess of 45 mph, making whatever efforts I made to record or evaluate the crowd meaningless. When people can’t hear each other talk for the whistling of the wind, it’s difficult to do an interview and if I were like the others, who were only going to be there that day, I would have gotten the interviews anyway, but I’m with the convoy for the long haul.

            At the end of that frustrating day, however, I felt as if none of it mattered. Yes, after all I had been through to get there, it felt empty, hollow, because I realized that when they decide to jail us all, the feds would sweep through without an ounce of resistance and the United States as a people would shrug and go about their business. As I thought about it more, sitting in the cold car, I realized that when this freedom is gone, the last bit of it while they gather all of their intelligence on who is there, where they are parked, what they are saying and soon, what they’re thinking, what will they have achieved but the death of everything that makes the world a unique and interesting place?

            Government is a machine that searches for power, constantly on the prowl, tipping over trash cans, pushing on doors to see if they’re open, like a mechanical bear. It’s insatiable; always, always, more and more. Until it empties the world of creativity and innovation through enforced common thought. You don’t get both, sorry. One or the other, power or dynamic, free intelligence. So, it continues on, without thought, without inspiration. Government thinks that it’s supporting ingenuity and creativity because it looks for unique ways to achieve more power; all of human intelligence grinding along looking for that one extra ounce from some newly discovered source.

            Our labor pays for their ability to censor us and force us closer and closer to our labor as the only value of a human being. The mind that can see their faults is not tolerated, so the mind that can create something beautiful is censored. It’s a constant, downward spiral that the governmental machine cannot see, feel or hear for the pounding of the pistons forming power from the raw freedom.

An FBI right-wing infiltration operation tangled in allegations of witness tampering, evidence suppression, and connections to the Oklahoma City bombing has been exposed through one man’s unprecedented Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the U.S. government.

And the case isn’t over yet.

Utah attorney Jesse Trentadue’s 2006 FOIA lawsuit against the FBI and CIA for Oklahoma City bombing records is indeed still an open matter, having been sealed and litigated behind closed doors since 2015 over witness tampering allegations.

Trentadue’s case is unprecedented, according to Judicial Watch. It’s rare for a FOIA case to go to trial and even rarer for one to entail allegations as serious as witness tampering, according to Judicial Watch senior investigator Sean Dunagan.

“We’re one of the largest FOIA litigants in this country, and we’ve never been involved in anything that involves that degree of alleged misconduct by the [FBI],” Dunagan said. “It’s astounding.”

Trentadue declined to comment on the sealed aspects of the case, including when the litigation might conclude. However, he did agree to an interview about the events leading up to 2015. He also provided The Epoch Times with access to a trove of court documents, transcripts, and other records that show details about the federal government’s domestic counterterrorism operations.

His records describe an FBI program known as Patriot Conspiracy (PATCON)—a secret operation to infiltrate right-wing and domestic extremist groups.

PATCON has been in the public record for years, described in detail by historian Wendy Painting’s 2016 doctoral thesis-turned-book “Aberration in the Heartland of the Real.” But PATCON has received little media attention outside of the late journalist Will Grigg. Other journalists have attempted to cover PATCON, only to run into censorship issues.

The reasons for the alleged attempts to suppress PATCON are clear, according to Trentadue.

“The FBI’s real objective in PATCON had been to infiltrate and to incite these fringe groups to violence,” he said.

The FBI declined to comment on this story.

The Nelsons Need Your Help

Today, we are asking for help. Two years ago, my husband’s former employer (Amazon) launched a multimillion dollar campaign urging prosecutors in the Eastern District of Virginia to charge him with the crime of depriving the company of his “honest services.” A few months after Amazon made its allegations, prosectors used a tool called “civil forfeiture” to seize the money we had paid our lawyers, our family and my husband’s business bank accounts. My husband has never been charged with a crime, but civil forfeiture allows prosecutors to allege that money is a crime without charging a person. Two months later and after they found out the government had seized our money based on their allegations, Amazon sued my husband in civil court alleging that he alone somehow violated federal anti-trust laws among other things. 

For the past two years, we’ve tried to survive as Amazon’s lawyers – former federal prosecutors in Virginia – work to convince their former colleagues to charge Carl with a crime. We have sold our house in Seattle, sold our car, liquidated a retirement account, and borrowed money from family. We have moved our kids across four states, staying in my sister’s basement, Carl’s parents’ condo building, my parents’ townhouse and we are now living in rental home in Ohio. 

We have tried so hard to do this without asking for help. But it’s time. We would appreciate any amount you can give to help us with legal fees. Every dollar helps. 

It’s important for me to note that both Carl and I are trying to work and earn money, and that we are not penniless. That said, the legal fees are crushing and I don’t have anything else left to sell, so now it’s simply what we can earn and hand to our attorneys. We are represented by a brilliant attorney, Alex Little, who I have known for 20 years. He is very mindful of costs and has worked very hard to keep fees as low as possible, while Amazon has multiple $1000 an hour attorneys at every juncture.

Thank you. Deeply. This has forever altered our lives but we promise to work for change when we are through this chapter. Specifically, we hope to lobby to abolish civil forfeiture and to change the rules around former DOJ officials ability to interact with their former offices when they leave the government for private practice.
