One in Four California Families Can't Afford Food for Their Kids
Raul Rodriguez, New America Media: "One in four California households with children reported food hardship, according to a new analysis of Gallup data released last Thursday by the Food Research and Action Center (FRAC)... The report analyzed data gathered as part of the Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index project's responses to the question: 'Have there been times in the past 12 months when you did not have enough money to buy food that you or your family needed?'"

11-08-18 Federal Grand Jury Testimony Regarding Corruption of the US Courts // Gran Jurado Federal testimonio sobre la corrupción de los tribunales de los EE.UU. // 联邦大陪审团的证词关于美国法院的腐败

Affidavit provided in support of William Windsor�s Atlanta Grand Jury testimony regarding corruption of the US courts

Dr Zernik's affidavit opined fraud by the US courts in the Northern District of Georgia and the District of Columbia in cases involving William Windsor.  Widespread fraud and corruption is enabled through PACER and CM/ECF, the electronic public access and case management systems of the US courts.


 
 
William Windsor

Los Angeles, August 18 - Joseph Zernik, PhD, of Human Rights Alert (NGO), filed an affidavit in support of the testimony of Mr William Windsor before a Federal Grand Jury in Atlanta, Georgia, pertaining to corruption of the US courts. [[i]]

Dr Zernik has gained substantial experience over the past decade in examining electronic records of the California and US courts:

  • A report, which he authored, was reviewed by the professional staff of the Human Rights Council of the United Nations, as part of the first ever, 2010 Universal Periodic Review (UPR) of Human Rights in the United States.  The report was incorporated into the official UPR Staff Report with a note referring to "corruption of the courts and the legal profession and discrimination by law enforcement in California". [[ii]]
  • A scholarly paper, which he authored on the subject of fraud in the electronic records of the US courts, was peer-reviewed and published in a computer science journal with an editorial board listing scholars from six (6) European nations and Canada. [[iii]]
  • An abstract on the subject of fraud in the electronic records of the US courts, which he authored, was peer-reviewed and published by the 16th World Criminology Congress.
  • The same papers were peer-reviewed and selected for presentations in an international computer science conference in Europe and the 16th World Criminology Congress in Japan. [[iv]]
  • His opinions in such matters were also re-affirmed by opinion letters of well-recognized fraud experts and a computer science scholar, including, but not limited to:
    • James Wedick, an FBI-veteran, who was decorated by the US Congress, by FBI Director, and by US Attorney General for his achievements in law enforcement, [[v]] and
    • Professor Eliyahu Shamir, a well-recognized computer science expert, who made seminal contributions to computer science in the field of language analysis (co-author of the "Pumping Lemma"). [[vi]]
In his affidavit, Dr Zernik opined regarding the records in two specific cases involving Mr Windsor:
  • Maid of the Mist Corporation et al v Alcatraz Media, LLC, et al (1:09-Cv-01543) in the US Court, Northern District of Georgia.  [[vii]]
  • Windsor v Evans et al (1:10-cv-00197) in the US Court, District of Columbia.  [[viii]]
In both cases, Dr Zernik opined fraud by the respective US district courts on Mr Windsor.
The nature of the fraud was the conduct of simulated litigation. [[ix]]

Dr Zernik further opined that PACER (the electronic system for public access to court electronic records) and CM/ECF (the electronic system for case management and electronic case filing), which were implemented by the Administrative Office of the US Courts, enable the routine conduct of simulated litigation of cases before the US courts from coast to coast.

In previous publications, Dr Zernik opined that the introduction of such fraudulent electronic records systems in the US courts undermines Human Rights and banking regulation, and that corruption of the US courts was tightly linked to the current economic crisis. [[x]]

Perry: I’m Not Alone in Fed Worries

Wednesday, 17 Aug 2011 11:38 AM
By Martin Gould

Presidential candidate Rick Perry renewed his attack on the Federal Reserve on Wednesday, the day after a storm blew up after he suggested chairman Ben Bernanke could be close to committing treason.

He said he is not alone in having concerns about the lack of transparency at the Fed during a campaign stop in Bedford, N.H.

“There have been a number of politicians who have stood up and really questioned the transparency of the Federal Reserve,” Perry said, according to the Washington Post. “They should open their books up. They should be transparent so that the people of the United States know what they are doing and how they are doing.

“Until they do that, there will continue to be questions about their activity and what their true goal is for the United States.”

While on the stump in Iowa on Monday, Perry said that if Bernanke opted for another round of quantative easing – buying Treasury bonds to pump money into the economy – his action would be “almost treacherous or treasonous.”

Why the outrage at Bernanke?



1) Secret bailout of banks at incredible level

The first ever GAO audit of the Federal Reserve was carried out in the past few months due to the Ron Paul, Alan Grayson Amendment to the Dodd-Frank bill, which passed last year. Jim DeMint, a Republican Senator, and Bernie Sanders, an independent Senator, led the charge for a Federal Reserve audit in the Senate, but watered down the original language of the house bill (HR1207), so that a complete audit would not be carried out. Ben Bernanke, Alan Greenspan, and various other bankers vehemently opposed the audit and lied to Congress about the effects an audit would have on markets. Nevertheless, the results of the first audit in the Federal Reserve's nearly 100 year history were posted on Senator Sander's webpage earlier this morning.

http://sanders.senate.gov/newsroom/news/?id=9e2a4ea8-6e73-4be2-a753-62060dcbb3c3

What was revealed in the audit was startling:

$16,000,000,000,000.00 (TRILLION) had been secretly given out to US banks and corporations and foreign banks everywhere from France to Scotland. From the period between December 2007 and June 2010, the Federal Reserve had secretly bailed out many of the world's banks, corporations, and governments. The Federal Reserve likes to refer to these secret bailouts as an all-inclusive loan program, but virtually none of the money has been returned and it was loaned out at 0% interest. Why the Federal Reserve had never been public about this or even informed the United States Congress about the $16 trillion dollar bailout is obvious the American public would have been outraged to find out that the Federal Reserve bailed out foreign banks while Americans were struggling to find jobs. To place $16 trillion into perspective, remember that GDP of the United States is only $14.12 trillion. The entire national debt of the United States government spanning its 200+ year history is only $14.5 trillion.

The budget that is being debated so heavily in Congress and the Senate is only $3.5 trillion. Take all of the outrage and debate over the $1.5 trillion deficit into consideration, and swallow this Red pill: There was no debate about whether $16,000,000,000,000 would be given to failing banks and failing corporations around the world. In late 2008, the TARP Bailout bill was passed and loans of $800 billion were given to failing banks and companies. That was a blatant lie considering the fact that Goldman Sachs alone received 814 billion dollars. As is turns out, the Federal Reserve donated $2.5 trillion to Citigroup, while Morgan Stanley received $2.04 trillion. The Royal Bank of Scotland and Deutsche Bank, a German bank, split about a trillion and numerous other banks received hefty chunks of the $16 trillion. ****

"This is a clear case of socialism for the rich and rugged, you-are-on-your-own individualism for everyone else." – Bernie Sanders(I-VT)

When you have conservative Republican stalwarts like Jim DeMint(R-SC) and Ron Paul(R-TX) as well as self identified Democratic socialists like Bernie Sanders all fighting against the Federal Reserve, you know that it is no longer an issue of Right versus Left. When you have every single member of the Republican Party in Congress and progressive Congressmen like Dennis Kucinich sponsoring a bill to audit the Federal Reserve, you realize that the Federal Reserve is an entity onto itself, which has no oversight and no accountability.

Americans should be swelled with anger and outrage at the abysmal state of affairs when an unelected group of bankers can create money out of thin air and give it out to megabanks and supercorporations like Halloween candy. If the Federal Reserve and the bankers who control it believe that they can continue to devalue the savings of Americans and continue to destroy the US economy, they will have to face the realization that their trillion dollar printing presses can be stopped with five dollars worth of bullets. Regardless of whether this money is fiat money (money printed with nothing of value to back it), if it is a currency forced on society and the world, with enforcement by the Fed, IRS, the U.S. military, et al, – which it is– the acts of the Federal Reserve are, in essence, the transfer of greater wealth to the rich insider banks and corporations, while the rest of the world grows poorer, and as the value of this funny money grows less and less in purchasing power. These insider banks, etc., then, exchange this funny money for gold and silver, the real wealth of the world, which, then, reinflates the world with more and more devaluing federal reserve notes. This, then, creates hyper-inflation, increasing the cost of all resources and commodities, while gold and silver climb to never-seen-before levels of value.

This is how the Federal Reserve insiders steal the wealth of the world and why the rich get richer while the poor get poorer. It's the world's largest Ponzi scheme! The Federal Reserve is nothing but a front for a small group of families who run a very large and successful white collar criminal Ponzi scheme. This criminal institution should be seized by the U.S. Treasury department and all assets frozen, and returned to the coffers of the U.S. Treasury in order to settle the U.S. debt and help begin to balance the U.S. deficit. All banks (listed below) should be forced to return the money received by the Federal Reserve. All families in ownership of the Fed and their agents should be located, caught, tried and jailed for grand larceny and treason against the people of the U.S.A. All government agents who protect and help facilitate this criminal organization should be fired from the positions and similarly tried and jailed for grand larceny and treason. Meanwhile, Congress should return our country to its original monetary system and, again, do its duty to regulate the coining of the currency of America as per the U.S. Constitution.

The list of institutions that received the most money from the Federal Reserve can be found on page 131 of the GAO Audit and are as follows:

Citigroup: $2.5 trillion - $2,500,000,000,000
Morgan Stanley: $2.04 trillion - $2,040,000,000,000
Merrill Lynch: $1.949 trillion  - $1,949,000,000,000
Bank of America: $1.344 trillion - $1,344,000,000,000
Barclays PLC (United Kingdom): $868 billion* -    $868,000,000,000
Bear Sterns: $853 billion - $853,000,000,000
Goldman Sachs: $814 billion -  $814,000,000,000
Royal Bank of Scotland (UK): $541 billion -  $541,000,000,000
JP Morgan Chase: $391 billion - $391,000,000,000
Deutsche Bank (Germany): $354 billion - $354,000,000,000
UBS (Switzerland): $287 billion -  $287,000,000,000
Credit Suisse (Switzerland): $262 billion - $262,000,000,000
Lehman Brothers: $183 billion - $183,000,000,000
Bank of Scotland (UK): $181 billion - $181,000,000,000
BNP Paribas (France): $175 billion - $175,000,000,000
Credit Suisse (Switzerland): $262 billion - $262,000,000,000
Lehman Brothers: $183 billion - $183,000,000,000
Bank of Scotland (UK): $181 billion - $181,000,000,000
BNP Paribas (France): $175 billion - $175,000,000,000

2) Evidence of criminality relative to handling of the Merrill Lynch -Bank of America merger


Following investigation of the matter, Andrew Cuomo, then New York State Attorney General, sent a letter to the US Senate. [1,2]
In response, independent financial analysts called for criminal indictments of Bernanke, Paulson (then Treasury Secretary), and others.
