Public CSF Case # XYZ2020A – 2A Related Cases: Ca se # 1:12-CV-00774-mms Case # 20-03664 Ca se # 11-CV-2509 Civil Action No. 1:13-cv-00777-RBW & FTC, DOJ, SEC, OSC, SSA, FCC Cases As Filed 1 Forward This case demand, and associated data, is based on first-hand experience and interviews, or discussions, with hundreds of Department of Energy staff; politicians and their support teams; tech CEO’s, FBI and GAO reports and Congressional forensic experts. This writing is authored via online, collaborative, Wikipedia-type multi-person format and revised regularly. This is the back-story of the feature film documentary: “Omerta – A Corruption Story”. This material has been filed with the FBI, DOJ, FTC, OSC, SEC, SSA, FCC, IG Offices, U.S. Congress and other relevant agencies. Plaintiffs are demanding their civil rights, Constitutional rights, payments and justice re: case # XYZ2020A and related case numbers. Form 95 Claims forms and Inspector General Reports have been filed on this matter but officials have been ordered to ignore or cover-up this case because the facts are embarrassing to famous public officials. Those cover-ups will no longer be tolerated. This document is designed to: 1.) Educate the public, 2.) Inform Congress and law enforcement and 3.) Process justice demands. The dictionary defines an Omerta ( ō-mûr′tə, ō″mĕr-tä′ ) as: ►n., A rule or code that prohibits speaking or divulging information about certain activities, especially the activities of a criminal organization; Alternative spelling of omertà.( https://www.wordnik.com/words/omertà ); a code of silence practiced by the Mafia; a refusal to give evidence to the police about criminal activities. This case is about an Omerta practiced by well-known public officials. The links herein point to over 2 million pages of confirming evidence documents and over 60 hours of documentary and surveillance videos already provided to, or by, government investigators. This massive volume of evidence provides indisputable proof of the assertions herein by the people who were “in the room” and who witnessed these crimes! Additional evidence is available for those with a federal “Q-Sensitive” security rating. NOTE: Plaintiffs will make a donation of one million dollars, to your charity, if your organization finances a Plaintiffs lawsuit that successfully collects the damages monies Plaintiffs are owed. 2 Table of Contents Forward......................................................................................................................................................2 Overview....................................................................................................................................................4 Crony Insider Payola Is The Bread And Butter Of The Department Of Energy......................................11 The Mines Of Hell...................................................................................................................................20 General Case Data....................................................................................................................................36 The Wizard Of Oz: Elon Musk................................................................................................................46 The Spies In Your Pocket.......................................................................................................................100 The Legal Harms: Killing The Messenger.............................................................................................127 The Assassins:...................................................................................................................................128 The Specific Attacks And Harms Undertaken Against Plaintiffs:.....................................................129 Harms Demands Calculation Metrics:..............................................................................................138 The Bay Area Culture Of Political Corruption......................................................................................145 Running The Scams...............................................................................................................................158 The Bribes Using The Stock Market:................................................................................................163 The Key Suspects:.............................................................................................................................168 The Sex Cult Club These Perpetrators Use.......................................................................................189 The Crimes And Corruption That Plaintiffs Experienced.................................................................196 U.S. Senators, Agency Heads And Congress-People Were bribed With These Payments:...............206 The Quid Pro Quo..................................................................................................................................235 Next Steps..........................................................................................................................................296 References, Proof And Bibliography.....................................................................................................298 Acknowledgments..................................................................................................................................312 3 Overview “Plaintiffs” are natural born United States citizen(s) residing in California who previously worked for, and with, the State and Federal government as contractor/employees in technology, intelligence and/or law enforcement roles and had relationships with White House, Mayoral, Senate and Congressional executives (and their financiers) who provided knowledge of the stated crimes. They are not associated with any political party and self-identify as “independent” voters. This case is not about political ideologies. It is about racketeering, insider trading and organized crime. Plaintiffs suffered harms and damages from a felony organized crime operated by County, State and Federal public officials, per forensic investigators, FBI, Congressional reports and filed federal FOIA request responses pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), (5 U.S.C. § 552 et seq.) and the implementing regulations of the United States government, and applicable laws. Plaintiffs seek to acquire compensation for their damages and expose and curtail this type of corruption for all of time. As their damages payment, the Plaintiffs in this particular corruption case are seeking to garnish $1.5 billion dollars ( See list of harms in sections below) from the $4.3 billion dollars available in the Federal Treasury and Department of Energy bank accounts operating the $25 billion dollar federal Section 136 funds to compensate them for the proven harms and damages caused to the Plaintiffs. Further, they are seeking damages and back-pay funds from the general State and Federal Treasury funds. The claim amount is, thus: $1.5 Billion Dollars, after taxes, deposited to the non-profit corporation formed to distribute these funds to the victims! Taxpayer-financed government funds in excess of $18 billion (Tesla) and $49 billion (Google), respectively, have been given to each of two of Plaintiffs competitors, who then made many times that amount by profiteering off those funds via criminal and corrupt activities. These are only two of dozens of technology oligarch-operated examples in the Cartel that government officials profited from, but these two are prime examples of the criminal activities engaged in, and covered up, at the expense of Plaintiffs. Both of those entities are now under federal investigation and civil charges for racketeering and organized crime. It is shocking, to every voting citizen, that such criminal entities would receive such a massive volume of corrupt quid-pro-quo largess while law-abiding Plaintiffs technologies and products, which obsolete those competitors products on every metric, would be blockaded. Plaintiffs were attacked using state-sponsored resources, due to bribery and crimes by public officials, who own stock and benefits in those competitors. Plaintiffs have been blockaded from their rights to legal council and equitable legal representation because this case exposes and embarrasses famous public officials. Nonetheless,

Schiliro is currently the Director of Congressional Relations for the transition team of President-Elect Barack Obama. Schiliro was a senior advisor to Senator Obama's presidential campaign. He has worked in the United States Congress for more than 25 years. Schiliro served as the Chief of Staff to Representative Henry Waxman and the House Oversight Committee in the House, and the Policy Director for Senate Democratic Leader Tom Daschle and Staff Director of the Senate Democratic Leadership Committees in the Senate.

I can’t say that. I didn’t,” Schiliro told the 550 undergraduate, graduate and law students who participated in Hofstra’s mid-year commencement ceremony at the David S. Mack Sports and Exhibition Complex. He drove home his point by recognizing several Hofstra professors who influenced and inspired him, including Dean Bernard Firestone, Professor Michael D’Innocenzo and Professor Emeritus Herb Rosenbaum.

  • Administration of Barack H. Obama, 2010 Remarks on Signing The
    Administration of Barack H. Obama, 2010 Remarks on Signing the Improper Payments Elimination and Recovery Act of 2010 July 22, 2010 Morning, everybody. Thank you. Thank you. Everybody, please have a seat. Welcome to the White House. I am pleased that you could all join us today as I sign this bill, the Improper Payments Elimination and Recovery Act, which, translated into English, means cutting down on waste, fraud, and abuse and ensuring that our Government serves as a responsible steward for the tax dollars of the American people. Now, this is a responsibility we've been working to fulfill from the very beginning of this administration. Back when I first started campaigning for office, I said I wanted to change the way Washington works so that it works for the American people. I meant making Government more open and more transparent and more responsive to the needs of the people. I meant getting rid of the waste and inefficiencies that squander the people's hard-earned money. And I meant finally revamping the systems that undermine our efficiency and threaten our security and fail to serve the interests of the American people. Now, there are outstanding public servants doing essential work throughout our Government. But too often, their best efforts are thwarted by outdated technologies and outmoded ways of doing business. That needs to change. We have to challenge a status quo that accepts billions of dollars in waste as the cost of doing business and enables obsolete or underperforming programs to survive year after year simply because that's the way things have always been done.

  • Letter/ Email Script Twitter Message
    July 12, 2021: Global Vaccine Equity Call to Action Draft 5 Letter/ Email Script Dear Honorable_________ I am a [social worker/student/professor/researcher] at [organization/institution]. I live in____________ and I am a constituent in your [district/state]. I am writing to share my concern about the rising global COVID-19 vaccine apartheid that will threaten human rights, health equity, and social and economic justice in the United States—and around the world—for many years to come. I welcome the U.S. commitment to provide 500 million doses of vaccine support to the world, waive vaccine patents, and increase COVID-19 vaccine and drug manufacturing. I also appreciate President Biden’s moral leadership at the G7 summit, where he encouraged G7 leaders to pledge donations of 1 billion vaccines. However, the world needs about 10 billion vaccines to be urgently delivered, which means we need to find immediate solutions beyond vaccine donations. The U.S. is uniquely positioned to prevent further catastrophe in resource-poor nations and end the vaccine apartheid across the globe. Therefore, I urge you to ask President Biden to take the following steps to end the global COVID-19 vaccine apartheid. 1. The U.S. has unused surplus vaccines that will expire soon. Therefore, we can provide more vaccines to end the global vaccine apartheid. 2. The U.S. should take the moral leadership to prioritize hard-hit areas and work for direct and immediate bilateral vaccine support, especially given the persistent COVAX setbacks and delays. 3. Support a comprehensive World Trade Organization waiver for vaccine patents and technologies associated with the vaccines.
