Michael, you truly are a national treasure! I really hope you’re working on a new documentary—one that, if things go the right way, could be your greatest work yet! A story about how America lost its mind for a time, only to finally wake up as if from a fever dream, revived by a much-needed jolt of reality. I think you’re just the guy to capture this epic story It ends up with us coming out better on the other side albeit slowly. Ken Burns who?
If you were hoping that the Democrats were going to win, you have to ask yourself—Why? They take bribes from the same corporate criminals as the Republicans.
If you were hoping that the Republicans were going to win, you have to ask yourself—Why? They take bribes from the same corporate criminals as the Democrats.
The truth of the matter is that both parties are corrupt. Heck, we don’t even have two political parties. There is just one gigantic ongoing criminal enterprise. Republican or Democrat, politicians are always going to do exactly what the “donors” want them to do and this will not change until we collectively demand an end to the system of legalized bribery that is the cause of all the problems in the world.
The Republicans and Democrats are using your tax dollars to fund, arm, and provide political cover for genocide—the worst crime known to man. To add insult to injury, these heinous war criminals say that they support Israel’s right to defend itself—like slaughtering thousands of innocent children could ever be considered self-defense. If this is not enough of a reason to withdraw your support from these two horrifically corrupt political parties—what the hell would be?
What if I told you that I could prove the leaders of the Republican and Democratic parties have been conspiring together to subvert the rule of law? You know, conspiring together to strip away everyone’s constitutional rights--including yours. Would proof of treason be enough of a reason to withdraw your support from these two bought and paid for political parties? Well, I have that proof. I put it in a book. All you have to do is read it. (There is a link for a free digital copy in this post.)
My name is Ted Martin. I have finished writing a book about my first hand encounters with a morbidly corrupt federal judicial system. The book is titled: The Illusion of Justice and contains documented, incontrovertible proof of widespread systemic corruption in the District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals, the United States Supreme Court, the Administrative Office of United States Courts, the Senate Judiciary Committee, and the U.S. Department of Justice.
The Supreme Court not only ignored two of the most egregious cases of judicial misconduct imaginable (my cases) but also an amicus brief by former Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Richard Posner in which he blows the whistle on rampant corruption in the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals.
Judge Posner’s amicus brief is posted on the Supreme Court’s website at www.supremecourt.gov and can be accessed by typing in the following case number: Martin v. Living Essentials (Case No. 17-8352)
It will be painfully obvious to anyone who reads my book (or Judges Posner’s amicus brief) that the Supreme Court denies certiorari without even bothering to read the petitions submitted by the citizens of the United States. This obscene betrayal of the public trust is a clear-cut violation of every Justice’s judicial oath and a crime under federal law that is commonly referred to as honest services fraud.
In short, my book proves that the leaders of both the Republican and Democratic parties have been conspiring together to pack the courts with corrupt corporate judges who will never side with the American people. This was abundantly clear when Senator Chuck Schumer and the other Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee repeatedly refused to use irrefutable evidence of judicial misconduct by Amy Coney Barrett (a Republican nominee) at her Supreme Court confirmation hearing.
This bipartisan band of seditious conspirators also refused to address the underlying corruption in clear violation of their oath to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.”
The only difference between the two major political parties is the rhetoric. The special interest groups running this country don’t give a damn which bribe taking stooge you vote for or even if you vote at all. They have already successfully rigged every election by controlling “our” choices.
The leaders of both the Republican and Democratic parties have been caught red-handed conspiring to pack the courts with corrupt judges who will never side with you. If there was ever a reason to be a one issue voter, this is it. Besides, any politician caught lying about their fidelity to the Constitution and laws of the United States is obviously lying about everything—particularly their agenda.
Republicans push the corrupt corporate agenda. Democrats pretend to be opposed. Together, they sell their offices to the highest bidders. They foment war for the military industrial complex, promote racism for the prison industrial complex, refuse to restrict access to assault weapons for the gun manufactures, permit large quantities of toxic cancer causing chemicals to be dumped into our air, land, and water for the chemical manufactures, deny needed medical care to our country’s citizens for the health insurance and pharmaceutical industries, and turn a willful blind eye to the catastrophic effects of global warming for the fossil fuel industries. The list of their greed fueled crimes against humanity goes on and on.
Voting your current elected representatives out of office should be a no brainer. But, to make sure that they are not replaced with another batch of equally corrupt corporate stooges, we’re also going to have to take back both the Republican and Democratic parties and get the money out of politics.
While this may appear to be a daunting task, all we really need is a sound plan. After giving this matter some careful consideration, I have the following proposal: We agree to put aside all of our ideological differences and unite as Americans in support of the Constitution of the United States.
If you read my book, it really won’t be that difficult. You will know who the real enemy is and it certainly isn’t your fellow citizens. We just need to become one issue voters. Ignore their contrived wedge issues, bullshit talking points, and cringe worthy campaign ads. If they are not fighting tooth and nail to get the money out of politics—don’t legitimize them with your vote.
Seriously, if in doubt—throw them out. Besides, any government official who is not forcefully calling for the resignations of the corrupt leaders of their own political party is, by definition, violating their oath to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.”
Whether Republican or Democrat, a treasonous corporate criminal is a treasonous corporate criminal, they serve the same master and nothing is going to change until we get the money out of politics.
*You get the money out of politics by publicly funding elections, banning all campaign contributions, and, in exchange for their broadcasting/operating licenses, requiring news organizations to give every candidate for public office an equal amount of free advertising space.
In the future, I may write a book titled: The Illusion of Journalism. But for now, I’m just going to say that the media is not going to help anyone blow the whistle on their partners in crime. In the past four years, I couldn’t find a single news organization that hadn’t sold us out.
All an honest journalist would have to do is read Judge Posner’s amicus brief to know that the courts are irretrievably corrupt. Reading my book will conclusively show that the courts are corrupt by design.
P.S. I blame the Federalist Society for the corruption in the federal judicial system. The six so-called conservative justices on the Supreme Court, Mitch McConnell, and all the Republican Senators on the Senate Judiciary Committee are members of the Federalist Society. Donald Trump picked “his” judicial nominees from lists provided by the Federalist Society.
I didn’t know that the Democrats were in on it until I tried to give them proof of judicial misconduct by Amy Coney Barrett at her Supreme Court confirmation hearing. If you would like to read about their reprehensible conduct, you can skip ahead to the Postscript on page 221 of my book. But, for goodness sake, read the rest of the book. The courts are more corrupt than you can possibly imagine!
The judges in both of my cases incorporated the defendant’s fraudulent defenses into their opinions even after I pointed out the fraud in every brief that I filed. These “judges” are clearly taking dictation from corporate defense counsel without even reading the plaintiff’s briefs. These black robed grifters obviously fixed both of my cases. But, by far, the worst part of the whole ordeal was knowing that they were systematically violating everyone’s constitutional rights—they just got caught violating mine.
Wonderful interview on Ayman. From your lips to God's ears as they say. As far as Michigan, I'm hoping that the Arab population takes a leap of faith with Kamala and that they know that Netanyahu absolutely wants Trump to win. That right there tells you that electing him over her would be very, very bad (yes, it can get worse) for their relatives and friends in Gaza and Lebanon. Here's wishing everyone an easy and safe time as you head out to the polls, if you haven't already. Good luck to us all America. I'm counting on us.
If Trump returns to the White House, he will not safeguard his Republican supporters and their families from the destructive consequences of Project 2025.
Their goal is to eliminate all social programs, which means slashing Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and more.
They may attempt to deny this, but it's clearly outlined in "Project 2025."
On the other hand, KAMALA HARRIS is committed to expanding and strengthening all social programs.
They will likely just “privatize” SSA so the billionaire cronies can skim off more profit for themselves. And advertise how “only private business can run these programs efficiently”. Kinda like the prison system has been privatized to become slave labor camps. Everything will be an oxymoron event. Like a Trump’s now infamous: “I will protect women even if they don’t want me to.” Everything coming out of their mouths are duplicitous lies.
I am not Arab or Jewish....just a plain ole' white/Anglo Saxon,82 years old, but, from the beginning, when those young people attending a concert were murdered, and the war that resulted - with Israel going far beyond human endurance, I have been opposed to President Biden's (whom I admire for many things) blind support of Israel's war machine.
I realize that Israel is an "ally" of the USA....But being an ally does not entail supplying Israel with limitless arms & money, far beyond what "self-defense" claims they may make.
I have Arab friends, Jewish friends, some of whom are friends with each other. Society needs to move beyond killing the so-called 'enemies', promoting the idea of humanity - world-wide. This global view of humanity needs to be emphasized and implemented by positive actions, not by words.
The minute President Biden saw that Israel was indiscriminately murdering women, children, men who were not soldiers, the so-called 'collateral damage", our President should have immediately stopped the flow of arms & money to Israel. PERIOD!
Today is election day. I voted early -- for the Harris-Walz ticket & Democrats down the line! It will be a huge disappointment if President Harris does not draw the red line, enforcing it, refusing to give one more bullet, one more dollar to Israel, which is on a path of annihilation, expanding far beyond retribution for the October 7th Hamas attack.
The USA, in good conscience, cannot, and should not, support the maniacal, short-sighted, attacks on civilians by Israel, now in the realm of genocide and, as the UN has declared, "war crimes". It is an embarrassment in the world's view that the USA continues to blindly support Israel's war machine.
Thank you, Michael Moore, for bringing this issue to light -- and those of you in Michigan, who may be so angry at israel's leaders, and at President Biden's blind spot, VOTE today (if you haven;'t already) for Harris-Walz, because they are more open-minded and reasonable . They can & will make decisions to help those in Gaza, Palestine, Lebanon. They are not tied to the old-fashioned "ally" mentality when the so-called ally becomes the aggressor, not the defender.
THANKS, MICHAEL, for making this issue visible to those of us far from Michigan!
Read my post today. Both major political parties are irretrievably corrupt and nothing is going to change until we get the money out of politics. Republican or Democrat, they are always going to do exactly what the "donors" want them to do--including genocide.
May take…time, effort, and love…a whole new…Sorry for those autocorrects! I did not write but believe that both Trump and Musk have committed treason!!
Wr are expats living in Panama. We voted for Vice President Harris and Coach Walz two weeks ago, helped a neighbor from Maricopa County AZ vote online when his ballot got lost in mail forwarding and we had dinner last night at the former Trump Tower here in Panama City, wearing our Harris campaign gear. We are going to win-ala. Thank you for your vision, voice and leadership and thank you to our GOP brothers and sisters who are saying enough is enough and crossing the aisle. The day Trump leaves to seek asylum in Russia will be a great day. I will be interested to see if Putin turns him away.
No worries, Michael! I voted in Ontonagon (in the U.P.) for the first time since moving here from the immutably deep red Kansas, where my vote never made any difference. Absolute confidence that my new state will be everything I know it is and stand solidly with Madam President!! At my age, this could be my last time to vote for a president. Michigan just has to get this one right.
Thanks for articulating views I happen to share. Trump is toast, though it make take considerable time, effort, and little ve to heal from Trumpism. I suppose a white le new Republican Party may be built—possibly by the Lincoln folks…and to the other point, President Harris must get to work to disentangle us from the genocide in Gaza; and, furthermore, to participate with the remnant in recognizing their sovereignty and dedicating, oh, say twice as many of our tax dollars to rebuilding and healing: an insufficient but honest and compassionate penance for our sins. This will be complicated by the need for equal or greater resources to be committed to defending against the coalition of authoritarians that backed Trump and certainly will continue to cause mischief in the world, not just in Ukraine! We must quell not only Trump but Elon Musk and reclaim our traditional allies. There is more, but I am tired. Tomorrow!.
I agree with you, Michael. I think that Kamala will refuse to send more weapons to Israel and will force Israel to get humanitarian aid into Gaza. If this does not happen, at least we have a sane person in the White House to pressure her to get help for Gaza.
Can only watch 3 mins of the Ayman "Video" - these days I go total Peppa pig - click sheep.
.
Toxic Gaslighting IS super toxic - no matter what.
.
...^_^... also one for the archives / "record".
.
Today Lester Holt on hated Late show TV host - same 2 minutes and 40 seconds flat - switch the set off.
.
That's NOT how I remember Holt.
.
and on and on and on and on.
.
Having to follow fake narratives in a gigantic and very spendy bubble - has one immediately and reflexively having to switch all these fuckeries OFF.
.
When you see your child drinking creosote - a reflexive jump and snatch of poison out of tiny hands...
.
Same with self protection - not even self care as in the bubble its still a hyper toxic environment every second of the day but 'We" find ways to deal with its ambient tic tic tic toxicity - when the BS factor climbs to x 6 to x 10 that's when toxic "rate" management has to come into play.
.
So I am NOT sifting through crumbs to find plausible sherds and shards of reality...
.
Only builds to beyond crazy making behavior and massive wastes of time.

~ Have fun NOT storming the castle - and instead reach for a more scratched than cream-colored enamel - BBC Tea Urn and a half stale packet of Rich Tea biscuits - that don't go soggy nor go plop into one's boiler strippingly over stewed tea and tea cup but instead enjoy a hydrophobically coated hamster biscuit made from the sweepings of a 1940s flour house and excess of anti-caking agents all mixed together and par-kilned in a biscuit factory manned and inspected by Philomena Cunk - herself on planet Eart - said biscuit incapable of soggy to the bottom of the cup disappointing plop-age and embarrassing and socially awkward sediment of the same where one would normally have to pretend in polite or common society that one's biscuit had not in fact gone soggy-plop (in the first instance) where one has to carry on sipping awkwardly in the pretense that no such events had ever happened in the first place. The Rich Tea biscuit although a completely tasteless waste of time - does alleviate much awkwardness in the company of others when partaking in desperate tea rituals or trying to stave off starvation while being overworked. A very British scenario - back in the day.
Perception 2nd video - watch with sound off - 1.5 seconds into full screen narrative - signals back as a total fabrication.

Why ? --- > Can't explain - but actually could but no-one's asking.

Not that things aren't super bad in other ways on the other side of the bubble nor cumulative years of abuse that total to the same.

...^_^... One for the archive - not so much as an "Assertion" but rather record of biological response / sense ---> leaning into an observation from a strong reflexive instinct - However WITH the sound on - heartening and convincing.

I defer to those from the deaf community that I owe a debt of gratitude to and those that could clearly SEE that Reagan was a buffoonish liar.
I believed in you so much that I thought she would win big, but misogyny and bigotry won. I can’t imagine how so many people voted for that scum bag.
I am so distraught and disappointed in my fellow Americans.
The White Nationalist party is in control now. God help us all! I am not going to watch mainstream cable media if they feature him all day. I will stay with podcasts and Substack writers to get my political updates.
Trump supporters have passed nearly 100 voter suppression laws.
At least 30 states enacted 78 restrictive laws, at least 63 of which are set to be in effect in 29 states in time for the 2024 election.
Those 78 restrictive voting laws account for over two-thirds of all restrictive laws enacted since the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act.
President Biden has the power to stop Trump.
BUT after January 20 2025, (about 70 days from now.) There will never be another chance to stop Trump again.
Biden gained special powers when Trumps corrupted judges, gave the office of the presidency the powers to make Trump immune to being prosecuted for any crimes he committed and any crimes he wants to commit while in office again.
Biden can use these powers the same as Trump can, that Trump said he will do.
Biden must Immediately remove Trumps corrupted judges off the Supreme Court for treason.
He must immediately remove all traitors in Congress for treason, who supported Trumps insurrection attempt to take permanent control over the United States.
This is the last chance we have to stop the dictatorial Takeover of the United States.
"The United States Constitution states that
"The punishment for treason is a minimum of five years in prison, a fine of at least $10,000, and the loss of the right to hold public office."
So why is this NOT happening????
We are heading straight for a fascist dictatorship.
Desperate times calls for desperate measures.
Or the United States will lose its AMERICAN FREEDOM TITLE FOREVER.

When you see your child drinking creosote - a reflexive jump and snatch of poison out of tiny hands...
.
Same with self protection - not even self care as in the bubble its still a hyper toxic environment every second of the day but 'We" find ways to deal with its ambient tic tic tic toxicity - when the BS factor climbs to x 6 to x 10 that's when toxic "rate" management has to come into play.
.
So I am NOT sifting through crumbs to find plausible sherds and shards of reality...
.
Only builds to beyond crazy making behavior and massive wastes of time.

~ Have fun NOT storming the castle - and instead reach for a more scratched than cream-colored enamel - BBC Tea Urn and a half stale packet of Rich Tea biscuits - that don't go soggy nor go plop into one's boiler strippingly over stewed tea and tea cup but instead enjoy a hydrophobically coated hamster biscuit made from the sweepings of a 1940s flour house and excess of anti-caking agents all mixed together and par-kilned in a biscuit factory manned and inspected by Philomena Cunk - herself on planet Eart - said biscuit incapable of soggy to the bottom of the cup disappointing plop-age and embarrassing and socially awkward sediment of the same where one would normally have to pretend in polite or common society that one's biscuit had not in fact gone soggy-plop (in the first instance) where one has to carry on sipping awkwardly in the pretense that no such events had ever happened in the first place. The Rich Tea biscuit although a completely tasteless waste of time - does alleviate much awkwardness in the company of others when partaking in desperate tea rituals or trying to stave off starvation while being overworked. A very British scenario - back in the day.

More Tea Earn' ? .

A wise guy huh ?!
.
Perception 2nd video - watch with sound off - 1.5 seconds into full screen narrative - signals back as a total fabrication.
.
Why ? --- > Can't explain - but actually could but no-one's asking.
.
Not that things aren't super bad in other ways on the other side of the bubble nor cumulative years of abuse that total to the same.
.
...^_^... One for the archive - not so much as an "Assertion" but rather record of biological response / sense ---> leaning into an observation from a strong reflexive instinct - However WITH the sound on - heartening and convincing.

I defer to those from the deaf community that I owe a debt of gratitude to and those that could clearly SEE that Reagan was a buffoonish liar.

I believed in you so much that I thought she would win big, but misogyny and bigotry won. I can’t imagine how so many people voted for that scum bag.
I am so distraught and disappointed in my fellow Americans.
The White Nationalist party is in control now. God help us all! I am not going to watch mainstream cable media if they feature him all day. I will stay with podcasts and Substack writers to get my political updates.
BIDEN HAS THE POWER TO STOP TRUMP.
Trump won the presidency because
Trump supporters have passed nearly 100 voter suppression laws.
At least 30 states enacted 78 restrictive laws, at least 63 of which are set to be in effect in 29 states in time for the 2024 election.
Those 78 restrictive voting laws account for over two-thirds of all restrictive laws enacted since the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act.
President Biden has the power to stop Trump.
BUT after January 20 2025, (about 70 days from now.) There will never be another chance to stop Trump again.
Biden gained special powers when Trumps corrupted judges, gave the office of the presidency the powers to make Trump immune to being prosecuted for any crimes he committed and any crimes he wants to commit while in office again.
Biden can use these powers the same as Trump can, that Trump said he will do.
Biden must Immediately remove Trumps corrupted judges off the Supreme Court for treason.
He must immediately remove all traitors in Congress for treason, who supported Trumps insurrection attempt to take permanent control over the United States.
This is the last chance we have to stop the dictatorial Takeover of the United States.
"The United States Constitution states that
"The punishment for treason is a minimum of five years in prison, a fine of at least $10,000, and the loss of the right to hold public office."
So why is this NOT happening????
We are heading straight for a fascist dictatorship.
Desperate times calls for desperate measures.
Or the United States will lose its AMERICAN FREEDOM TITLE FOREVER.
(Please re-post and send to President Biden.)
Michael what are your comments about the race now. Its 12:02 AM Wednesday. : (
