I see no issue with Trump in prison lock up. It would be a gravy assignment for any Secret Service officer.


Thursday, April 18, 2024, 6:32 PM (23 minutes ago)


I see no issue with Trump going to Rikers Island or an FDC for a contempt charge or a final sentence.  Everybody is talking about how the JAIL duty would be so distasteful for the Secret Service.  No WAY.  Their job would be so much easier with the protectee in jail.  No traffic issues, no exposure to an un-controlled horizon of potential snipers.  

 

The Secret Service would have it easy, no traveling, probably be home every night or at worst every night every third week.  I 

 

The worst of it would be group settings where the general population would have access.  Prison attacks are easier to defend against than attacks out of a random general public.  

 

Even if he was in a low security general population.  Nobody has access to the second amendment much less ANY kind of weapon.  All of the inmates are PRESCREENED everyday.

I am much more PRO America than Donald Trump ever was or will ever be!

I am PRO America

Wednesday, April 3, 2024

I am much more PRO America than Donald Trump ever was or will ever be!  When Trump says "Make America Great Again" he has no idea what he is saying.  Now he has convinced many of the more naive to go along with his stupidity.  I am first and foremost PRO the United States, but I am PRO North America, PRO South America, PRO Central America and PRO AMERICAN too. 

In the United States Constitution, our naming document, the Founding Fathers used the name "United States" redundantly 52 times e.g., "We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union…", "Congress of the United State, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives…", "President of the United States…", and "Supreme Court of the United States…".  The prepositional phrase "of America" is only used twice in the United States Constitution.  When Donald Trump and his M.A.G.A. fans say they want to "Make Amerca Great Again" that would be like an ethnic German saying, "Make Europe Great Again."

Now the name of our Country is and will always be the United States.  Yes we are part of North America, part of the Americas, but there is no way we are the ONLY Americans.  Trump will never use our constitutional name.  Why?  Trump will never use OUR name because the proverbial united/union is inescapable.  Trump is not a unifier!  Trump is, and always has been a divider!  Trump wants to divide us up into factions and CONQUER us.

 

I, like Abraham Lincoln and most citizens, want to preserve the UNION!!!!

Notice of Suit and quasi-amicus-brief in support of due process of law and opposed to immunity from the rule of law



Latest Update
Your item was picked up at a postal facility at 11:23 am on March 27, 2024 in WASHINGTON, DC 20543

Chief Justice John G. Roberts, Jr.[1]

Supreme Court of the United States

One First Street N.E.

Washington, DC 20543-0001

 

Re:     Notice of Suit, any and all assertions of enduring non-exigent immunity are an abdication and / or a dereliction of due process of law under Article III – as it relates to any person, a former president[2] or DGJeep[3] v. Supreme Court of the United States (Petitions for Writ of Certiorari 07-11115, 11-8211, 13-7030, 13-5193, 14-5551, 14-10088, 15-8884 and 18-5856)[4]

 

Dear People,

 

I wanted to get this out to you, before you and your co-conspirators[5] FURTHER humiliated yourselves with 23-939 Trump, Donald J. v. United States.  Let’s call it notice of suit and a quasi-amicus-brief in support of due process of law and opposed to immunity from the rule of law.

As I am sure you know 20 years ago, a judge signed an unconstitutional ex parte order.  It was unconstitutionally upheld over my attorney’s timely constitutional objections verbally inside the courtroom and outside of court in post-trial motion and my ongoing appeals in writing, see Supreme Court of the United States Petitions for Writ of Certiorari 07-11115, 11-8211, 13-7030, 13-5193, 14-5551, 14-10088, 15-8884 and 18-5856.  This unconstitutional order took away my son, my paternity, my reputation, my house, my car, and everything I once held dear.  Forced me into a no-holds-barred non-trivial civil dispute with NOTHING to defend myself.  This is and has always been a NON-TRIVIAL issue.  20+ years later, and after 411 days in federal custody[6], to my son I am an embarrassment, a crazy, ex-federal prisoner, poor relation that has to be tolerated.

Absolute non-exigent non-trivial immunity for other people’s civil rights has been self-servingly sustained by the Black Robed Royalist[7] want-to-be Article III Judiciary since at least the Civil War.[8]  Nowhere in Article III is non-exigent immunity created.[9]  Any thought of immunity from a constitution is antithetical to the raison d'etre (reason for being) of a constitution.  Every FEDERAL employee has to swear:

 

“I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same.” 

 

You and your Black Robed Royalist Brethren have upheld unconstitutional absolute non-exigent immunity for the deprivation of constitutional rights since at least the civil war.

Think about it, We the People set up a Constitution with an Article III justice system to “establish justice” “and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity” (i.e., constitutional rights).   Any non-trivial, non-exigent immunity is self-defeating to the rule of law. 

But the Article III justice system, self-servingly assert non-exigent immunity, from traffic cops to Supreme Court Justices, again self-servingly, assert absolute non-exigent immunity for the deprivation of rights.  Now if you are a citizen Trump and you have virtually unlimited inherited financial resources you can within the Article III system, obstruct and delay any all accountability for rape, theft, fraud, tax evasion and etc. until you are 70+ years old been elected President of the United States and defeated the “popular will” with the electoral college.

Now I had to laugh, before I teared up, recently at JJ., Roberts, Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch, and Kavanaugh, in their recent judicial sophistry i.e., 23-719 Trump v. Anderson

The Black Robed Royalist majority (i.e., 5 of 9) want to assert that because congress has never utilized the XIV Amendment’s “Section 5. The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article” to further elucidate the article as regards Section 3 of the XIV Amendment, the states cannot enforce Section 3.

Of course, that defeats a plain reading of the XIV Amendment Section 3 with the support of the X Amendment, “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the peoplei.e., states do not need congressional authority to act. 

Now the Black Robed Royalist Brethren have been radiating nothing but sophistry (bullshit) for YEARS!  At least since the Civil War.  We the People of the United States invested 600,000+ lives in a civil war to do two things.  The first and most important was abolishing slavery.  The second and just as important, though overlooked, was to preserve the union[10] and MINIMIZE if not eliminate state’s rights. 

Post Civil War we incorporated the XIII, XIV, and XV Amendments to abolish slavery we already had the VII Amendment to civilly insure rights. 

Unfortunately, we did nothing to address the II and X Amendment’s anarchial tendencies.  And are NOW, 230+ years later, being forced to further endure armed gangs (e.g., the KKK, David Koresh / Branch Davidian, Charlottesville, Ruby Ridge, January 6th and etc.), Jim Crow discrimination and absolute non-exigent immunity for the deprivation of constitutional rights. 

Now that brings me back to the Black Robed Royalist Brethren and their 23-719 Trump v. Anderson SOPHISTRY. 

Post Civil War the congress did utilize XIV Amendment’s “Section 5. The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article”.  Congress in 1871 passed "An Act to enforce the Provisions of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, and for other Purposes."  That is now codified into the federal statute law as 42 U.S.C. 1983 - Civil action for deprivation of rights.

Absolute non-exigent immunity from, your constitutional obligations to the United States Constitution Article III, VII Amendment[11], XIV Amendment, Section 5 and as specifically and constitutionally authorized with "An Act to enforce the Provisions of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, and for other Purposes" by Congress in 1871 and now codified into federal statute law as 42 U.S.C. 1983 - Civil action for deprivation of rights is just untenable. 

Now I above and restate here, “Any and all assertions of enduring non-exigent immunity are an abdication and / or a dereliction of the duty under Article III.” 

I am currently suing the Supreme Court of the United States, within the corporation of the Government of the United States for non-trivial unconstitutional deprivations in DGJeep v. Supreme Court of the United States (Petitions for Writ of Certiorari 07-11115, 11-8211, 13-7030, 13-5193, 14-5551, 14-10088, 15-8884 and 18-5856)per Article III, VII Amendment[12], XIV Amendment, Section 5 and as specifically and constitutionally authorized with "An Act to enforce the Provisions of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, and for other Purposes" by Congress in 1871, now codified into federal statute law as 42 U.S.C. 1983 - Civil action for deprivation of rights, and 18 U.S. Code § 1964 - Civil remedies RICO (United States district court and shall recover threefold the damages he sustains and the cost of the suit)

I site JJ., Roberts, Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch, and Kavanaugh in 23-719 Trump v. Anderson, in support of this “notice of suit” thereof.

Please see enclosed spreadsheet, dated Wednesday March 20, 2024 08:58:59.61 PM, of the accruing damages:

 

Three billion two hundred forty-one million two hundred ninety-seven thousand five hundred fifty-seven dollars………..………………………………………….. $3,241,297,557

If there is anything further, please let me know.

Thank you in advance.

Dark Money Senate


 Small "d" un-democratic “dark money” CORRUPT Senate

 116th Congress (2019–2021)
Senate Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY)
Originally Published September 2020

 

    The constitutional “Small "d" undemocratic “Dark Money" SENATE," at the time of the 1850 Missouri compromise, prior to the Civil War (1861) had equal representation in the Senate, 15 Northern senators v 15 Southern senators.  Although, the constitutional “Small "d" undemocratic “Dark Money" SENATE" population disparity was 13,342,325 for the north and 9,612,969 from the south.  There were 3,204,313 UNREPRESENTED enslaved people, could not find where 3/5 of them were allocated, added to or subtracted from, but I am betting most of them were in the south.  That population disparity of the "Small "d" undemocratic “Dark Money" SENATE" MOTIVATED the Civil War and cost 600,000 lives. 



    The constitutional "Small "d" undemocratic “Dark Money" SENATE" was SUPERPOWERED“ in 1917.  Rule XXII of the Standing Rules of the United States Senate requires a majority of three-fifths of the senators duly chosen and sworn (60 votes if there is no more than one vacancy to end a filibuster) for cloture, a more extreme minority of senators can block a measure, even if it has the support of a simple majority. 



    With the undemocratic Senate Rule XXII the small "d" undemocratic “Dark Money" senate only gets more corrupt.  You can elect anybody to the presidency and anybody to the House, but everything in the United States Government has to pass the “dark money” corrupted Senate. Small "d" undemocratic “Dark Money" controls the SENATE!!! 


 



    The 50 Senators in Mitch McConnell's small "d" undemocratic "dark money" GOP caucus represents 144,017,589 persons, 43.50% of the population.  The 50 Senators in Chuck Schumer's Democratic caucus represents 187,090,846 persons, 56.50% of the population.  The difference leaves 43,073,257 (13.01%) United States citizens without representation in the small "d" undemocratic "dark money" unrepresentative United States senate.

 

    This is arithmetic, there is no fancy math.  Addition, subtraction, divide the sums by the totals to get the percentages, grade school arithmetic.  Be ASSURED small "d" undemocratic "dark money" knows how to add, subtract and count!!

 

 Mitch McConnell's small "d" undemocratic "dark money" unrepresentative Senate is inherently and irrevocably constitutionally CORRUPTED.

 

    In a new small "d" undemocratic "dark money" senate without regard to party, 52 of the senators, from the 26 least populous states amount to a minimum 18% of the population. 

 

  To hold a filibuster and BLOCK EVERYTHING takes 42 senators from the 21 smallest states with a minimum 11% of the population.

 

        Now you might mistakenly ASSUME that the 30 states and the 60 of 100 senators needed to overcome a filibuster would REQUIRE a majority.  WRONG!!!!  The 30 least populated states (60 senators) with a population of 80,549,406, amount to only 24% of the total population.

 

   The current UN-REPRESENTATIVE constitution produced the Civil War, sustains civil rights inequities to this day and RESISTS all improvements to our for-profit-healthcare system.


    The United States senate is irretrievably, uncontestably CONSTITUTIONALLY  CORRUPT.  The founding fathers had to compromise to maintain the union in the face of slavery.  We NOW need to do away with obscene compromise and institute the representative democracy we all know is NOW required.     


    It should be noted additionally, you can elect a president with only 23% (55,169,028) of the population, 51% of the 41 smallest states by population to get 270 electoral votes in the constitutional small "d" corrupt undemocratic Electoral College.   And as Trump wanted, January 6, 2021, throw the presidential election to the house for election by 51 of the least populous states 16% (39,539,449).


    Now theoretically the premise of the 2 Senators from each state and the  Rule XXII (3/5 i.e., 60 senators of the senate to stop a filibuster) of the Standing Rules of the United States Senate were to stabilize government and protect it from the whim of a fickle majority.  


    But the hope for sagacity of the stable long terms of the Senate have not materialized and the senate has been corrupted by the negation of a corrupt minority.

      DONALD J. TRUMP,

 

Dear People,

 

Do not allow yourselves to feel intimidated by Trump’s and other’s assertion this is JUST a "paperwork" crime!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Trump likes to compare himself to Capone. The upcoming document case in NY is like Capone's conviction.   They put Capone away on a "paperwork" crime, i.e., tax evasion, not for “Murder Incorporated”.  You have got Trump dead to rights on the DOCUMENTS case in NY. 

Off to jail he goes!

If there is anything further, please let me know

Thank you in advance.

This is the ABSOLUTE CORRUPTION of We the People’s intent to establish justice!!!


This is the ABSOLUTE CORRUPTION of 

We the People’s intent to establish justice!!!



To hear the Supreme Court’s precedent (i.e., sophistry[1]) tell us, “We the People” sub silentio traded the “King can do no WRONG” for the ABSOLUTELY IMMUNE actions of the “malicious or corrupt” judges,[2] the “malicious or dishonest” prosecutor[3], the “knowingly false testimony by police officers"[4], the malicious, corrupt, dishonest, sincerely ignorant and conscientiously stupid actions of “all persons (spouses) -- governmental or otherwise -- who were integral parts of the judicial process”[5] acting under color of law and the corrupt, malicious, dishonest, sincerely ignorant and conscientiously stupid actions of federal, state, local, and regional legislators[6] to render absolute corruption of inalienable rights under color of law.

For additional support of CORRUPT rulings of the Supreme Court I submit their own published precedents[7] examples of the Judicial sophistry[8], that has corrupted We the People’s unalienable rights under color of law, I submit, sophisticated “absolute immunity” for racially motivate mass murder,[9] sophisticated of a pogrom,[9a]  sophisticated deprivation of the 15th Amendment’s Voting Rights protection with the subterfuges of poll taxes, literacy tests, and grandfather clauses,[10] sophisticated “absolute immunity” for racially motivated massacre[11] (Colfax Riot/pogrom), sophisticated “absolute immunity” for the state’s sanctioned kidnapping, assault and murder without regard to the 14th Amendment’s security,[12] creating sophisticated racial segregation and the ongoing Jim Crow discrimination over the “necessary and proper” “Act to protect all citizens in their civil and legal rights."[13] 18 Stat. 335, enacted March 1, 1875, separate and UNEQUAL, clarifying sophisticated segregation[14] over the necessary and proper "Act to protect all citizens in their civil and legal rights." 18 Stat. 335, enacted March 1, 1875, reaffirmed Judicial sophisticated “absolute immunity,”[15] prosecutorial sophisticated “absolute immunity,”[16] sophisticated “absolute immunity” for forced sterilization,[17] and sophisticated “absolute immunity” for “knowingly false testimony by police officers," and “all persons that were integral in the Judicial Process.”[18]

There were several post 9/11 sophisticated precedents[19] to sustain the SUPER DUPER absolute immunity to wage WAR without justification issue an unreasonable court order  - that was reckonably issued "in the "clear absence of all jurisdiction,"[20] that was "beyond debate"[21] "sufficiently clear that every reasonable official would have understood that what he is doing violates that right"[22] [23]

If that is not ABSOLUTE CORRUPTION of We the People’s intent to establish justice, I cannot imagine what is.
