27 II. REASON FOR FILING

28 Contestant, Anthony Camboni, is aware of issues, concerning wrongful / illegal conduct

Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 1 1 undertaken by United States Senator / Candidate John McCain. Contestant, Anthony Camboni, 2 deposits this filing as a means to advise the Court, Arizona Governor Doug Ducey, Arizona 3 Secretary of State Michele Reagan, and The Office of Arizona Attorneys’ General 4 NOTE: Mark Brnovich, Esq. (A Person Of Unsound Mind) illegally-occupied, and 5 continues to illegally-occupy, the Office of Arizona’s Attorneys’ General). 6 Contestant, Anthony Camboni, has reason to believe information, facts, and evidence, 7 presented, herein, are true. Contestant has reason to believe John McCain has engaged in wrongful 8 / illegal conduct. The aforementioned conduct includes, but is not limited to: 9 ( a. ) Treason; 10 ( b. ) Sedition; 11 ( c. ) Perjury; 12 ( d. ) Violation of Sworn Oaths; 13 ( e. ) Violation of The Constitution of The State of Arizona; 14 ( f. ) Violation of The Constitution of The United States; 15 ( g. ) Violation of Arizona Revised Statutes; 16 ( h. ) Violation of United States Code. 17 In addition, Contestant has reason to believe John McCain has engaged in, and participated 18 in, planning, funding, and execution, of unspeakable crimes. John McCain has chosen to associate 19 himself with enemies of The State of Arizona. John McCain has chosen to associate himself with 20 enemies of The United States. John McCain has chosen to associate with liars, terrorists, and 21 terrorist organizations. 22 John McCain, by and through various FICTITIOUS PERSONS / Corporate Entities, has 23 chosen to accept financial consideration from enemies of The People of The State of Arizona, 24 and enemies of The People of The United States. Contestant, Anthony Camboni, hereby, presents 25 evidence supporting the aforementioned. 26 (see: Exhibit O - Piercing The Corporate Veil) 27 Defending John McCain 28 Upon information and belief:

Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 2 1 ( a. ) Arizona’s Executive Branch Officers; 2 ( b. ) Arizona’s Office of Attorneys’ General; 3 ( c. ) Attorneys representing The State of Arizona; 4 ( d. ) Arizona’s (FAKE) Attorneys’ General Mark Brnovich, Esq. (A Person Of Unsound 5 Mind); 6 ( e. ) Individuals currently unknown to Contestant. 7 have undertaken a course of action designed to ensure John McCain is permitted to 8 illegally-occupy the Office of United States Senator (Arizona). 9 Irrefutable Evidence 10 Despite presentation of irrefutable evidence, concerning John McCain’s wrongful / criminal 11 conduct, constitutional disqualification, and ineligibility, the aforementioned (a. - e. above) have 12 employed: 13 ( a. ) The Office of Arizona’s Attorneys’ General; 14 ( b. ) Executive Branch Offices of Arizona’s State Government; 15 ( c. ) Arizona’s Courts of Common Law. 16 as means by which the aforementioned wrongfully / illegally attempt to ensure John McCain is 17 permitted to illegally-occupy the Office of United States Senator (Arizona). 18 Failure To Deny 19 John McCain, nor The State of Arizona / Arizona’s Elected Officials, have denied Contestant’s 20 claims. John McCain failed to file any response to Anthony Camboni’s CONTEST of Election. By 21 and through failure to respond, and failure to deny, John McCain admits the Truth of Anthony 22 Camboni’s claims. As such, the Court owes a duty to accept Anthony Camboni’s claims as true. 23 Free And Equal Elections 24 Arizona’s Elected / Appointed Officials, Arizona’s Judicial Branch Officers, and Employees 25 of The State of Arizona, owe a duty to ensure Arizona’s Elections are “Free”, and “Equal”. 26 The aforementioned have failed / refused to ensure Arizona’s Elections are conducted in 27 an ethical, honest, lawful manner. The aforementioned have acted to “prevent the free exercise of 28 the right of suffrage”.

Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 3 1 The Constitution Of The State OF Arizona 2 ARTICLE II. DECLARATION OF RIGHTS 3 21. Free and equal elections 4 Section 21. All elections shall be free and equal, and no power, civil or

5 military, shall at any time interfere to prevent the free exercise of the right of suffrage. 6

7 Due Process 8 Arizona’s Elected / Appointed Ofﬁcials, Arizona’s Judicial Branch Ofﬁcers, and Employees 9 of The State of Arizona have acted to deny Contestant’s Creator-Imputed, Constitutionally 10 Guaranteed Right To Due Process. The Constitution Of The State OF Arizona 11 ARTICLE II. DECLARATION OF RIGHTS 12 4. Due process of law 13 Section 4. No person shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due 14 process of law.

15 Arizona Election Fraud 16 Arizona’s Electoral System has been corrupted. The purposeful failure to conduct free 17 and equal elections serves as a means to ensure John McCain, and other questionable Individuals, 18 occupy and retain elective office. 19 Arizona’s Elected / Appointed Officers, Arizona’s Judicial Branch Officers, and Employees 20 of The State of Arizona, have engaged in Acts of Fraud. 21 The aforementioned Officers & Employees have done so, a means to ensure the “New 22 World Order”, as identified by John McCain, is “maintained”. 23 Treason - John McCain’s FOX News Confession - New World Order 24

25 FOX News - December 28, 2016

26 “Could I just say, seventy years we have had a New World Order”. “That World Order has to be maintained.” 27 - John McCain - FOX News - December 28, 2016 28

Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 4 1 Based upon statements by John McCain - FOX News December 28, 2016 - it appears John 2 McCain, rather than act in accordance with: 3 ( a. ) The Constitution of The United States; 4 ( b. ) The Constitution of The State of Arizona; 5 ( c. ) The Rule of Law; 6 ( d. ) The Common Law; 7 ( e. ) Sworn oaths of support for: 8 ( 1. ) The Constitution of The United States; 9 ( 2. ) The Constitution of The State of Arizona. 10 recognizes, and supports, a “New World Order”. 11

13 Nefarious Intent 14 John McCain has employed, and continues to employ, the Ofﬁce of United States Senator 15 (Arizona): 16 ( a. ) For nefarious purpose(s); 17 ( b. ) On behalf of nefarious Individuals / Organizations / States / Ideologies; 18 ( c. ) As a means to aid, support, and/or ﬁnance, nefarious activities, Individuals / 19 Organizations / States / Ideologies; 20 ( d. ) In a wrongful / criminal / fraudulent manner. 21

16 Trump Opens McCains Treasonous Can of Worms 17 SOURCE: http://www.veteranstoday.com 18 By Gordon Duff, Senior Editor on July 20, 2015 19 The Donald Doubles Down on His “McCain Not a War Hero” Statements 20

21 Over the weekend, “the Donald” backed down on his attacks on McCain, calling “Hanoi John” a “war hero.” 22 However, Donald is not going to be able to close the can of worms he opened. Today, 23 McCain is trying to wrap himself in the POW fl ag for cover. POWs had never been rock star heroes before, quite the opposite. These are people who surrendered to the enemy, people 24 suspected of collaboration and worse. With Korea, POWs became the shame of America 25 with many “brainwashed” into following communist doctrines. American POWs from Vietnam were the bloody fl ag Richard Nixon wrapped himself in, on 26 the advice of Henry Kissinger, part of a ploy to divert attention from his endless personal fail- 27 ings which included his agreement with North Vietnam that let them keep and later execute hundreds of American POWs. 1205 American POWs were kept by North Vietnam according 28 to records recovered at the end of the Cold War. President’s Clinton and Yeltsin instituted a search of Russia’s gulags looking for their remains with no success. In 1993, armed with testimony from a former high ranking Czech security offi cial, I proposed a systematic search

2 of archives in Prague that recorded the fate of 200 missing US POWs from Vietnam but was blocked by Senator John McCain. 3 33 POWs faced execution for treason after Vietnam until Nixon pardoned all POWs. 4 McCain was on the list of the 33, in fact at the head of it. Here are the facts as we know them: 5 • According to Colonel Ted Guy, John McCain’s commander as a POW, 6 McCain collaborated with the enemy. • McCain is accused of giving information that led to the downing of 60 US 7 aircraft 8 • McCain is accused of training North Vietnamese air defense personnel • McCain is accused of making over 30 propaganda broadcasts against the US, 9 broadcasts he moved to have classiﬁed when he was elected to the senate

10 These 4 accusations are the only real and supportable accusations against McCain. The evidence for these acts exists and is substantial. What is stranger still is McCain’s longtime war 11 against veterans, other POWs and their families. When John was a bit younger and better capable of looking after himself, he was often both verbally and physically abusive to POW 12 families, POW activists and veterans. We hear nothing of these brutal outbursts of McCain’s 13 though they continue to this day, now taken as the ravings of a mental defective. The door Donald opened should be kept open. We need to examine the POW phenomenon. 14 After Vietnam, we allowed Nixon to glorify POWs while abandoning hundreds. The facts 15 came to light during the late 1990s when tapes of conversations between Nixon and Kiss- inger were made public, for moments, with Kissinger admitting that American POWS held 16 outside North Vietnam, in Laos, Cambodia and the South, were purposefully not included in 17 the agreements, a number Kissinger put at over 200. These tapes were cleaned from the media and are not available to even researchers, were 18 such interested parties to exist, which they do not.

19 Vietnam was a useless war. I served in Vietnam as a Marine combat infantryman and know the war well close up. 20 Those of us that served felt abused and exploited and suffered far worse at the hands of Nixon and subsequent leaders who backed away from those of us who served as honorably 21 as possible while engaging in a nutty frenzy of POW worship. 22 Trump is right, those who surrender are generally not heroes. Some were however, like Ted Guy, a man taken on the ground ﬁghting, killing 4 of his captors. 23 Guy, however, is only one of many thousands, many many thousands, from Vietnam that 24 should have received some aspect of recognition in a war where many more thousands lived like gods. Vietnam was a scam, drugs, prostitution, black market, the best food and hottest 25 parties in the world for many who came home from the war with medals on their chests for 26 doing nothing whatsoever. I might add, the Saigon press club war correspondents were the worst of all, living like kings 27 on little boys and little girls while being occasionally ﬂown for “10 minutes of war” with

28 a general, then back to the clubs and brothels. They all should have been locked in FEMA camps, were such things to exist. As for the Donald, he should demand that, minimally, the American public be able to hear

1 McCain’s broadcasts and see the records of his debrieﬁng and read the statements made against him by other POWs, including and especially Colonel Ted Guy. 2 This man, if you wish to call him that, “McCain” has been allowed to destroy America’s secu- 3 rity for two generations, along with friends like “light loafer Lindsey” Graham and others. In one instance alone, the F35, McCain has personally destroyed America’s defense capabilities 4 for 25 years. This is his plane, his project, his monstrosity. 5 There hasn’t been a defense scam in decades that hasn’t had his hand prints on it. Time for Trump to get serious and show some backbone. McCain is a hard target, time for Trump to stop 6 bashing the easy guys and take this one on. 7

24 Presidential candidate Donald Trump has generated a lot of press, and criticism from other 25 candidates, for his claim that Senator John McCain was not a “war hero.” As it happens, Trump was partially right, but he didn’t go far enough. Not only is John McCain not a war 26 hero, he is in fact a war criminal. Most people know that McCain was a pilot during the Vietnam War, and that he was shot 27 down over North Vietnam and spent ﬁve years as a POW. What is less well known is the 28 story of how he was shot down, a story that has only rarely surfaced in the media. The last

1 time it appeared in the U.S. press, as far as I can tell, was during the 2000 primary campaign. Here’s an excerpt [emphasis added]: 2

3 ------On that gray morning more than 32 years ago, McCain was knocked 4 unconscious briefly when he ejected from his damaged bomber. Both his 5 arms were broken, his right knee was shattered, and when he splashed into the middle of Truc Bach (White Silk) Lake, his 50 pounds of flight gear 6 kept him from reaching the surface. 7 When Mai Van On finally got to him, about 200 yards out, all the older man could see was a bit of white silk, the top of the American’s parachute. 8 With U.S. planes still bombing and strafing their target of the day—a 9 nearby light-bulb factory where On worked as a security guard—On used a stout bamboo pole to hoist McCain off the bottom of the lake. 10 “If I had hesitated even one more minute, I’m sure he would have died,” said On, still vigorous at 83 and still living in the same spot on the 11 southern edge of the lake in the heart of downtown Hanoi. 12 “John McCain was lucky that morning,” On said. “It was about 11 a.m. I had just come home for lunch and put my bicycle into the house. Then 13 the air-raid siren went off, and 60 or 70 of us ran to a tunnel to avoid the 14 bombs. I was at the entrance to the tunnel when I saw the pilot go into the water. 15 “The tunnel was still shaking from the bombing when I ran to the lake.” 16 ------The only hero that day was Mai Van On, not John McCain. 17 As I wrote back in 2005: 18 Bombing a light-bulb factory, a civilian target, is a war crime. McCain, obviously, didn’t select the target, he was just following orders, but that doesn’t exonerate him 19 any more than any other soldier who follows an illegal order. According to Amnesty International this particular violation of the Geneva Convention (bombing civilian 20 targets) is actually official U.S. military doctrine: 21 ------“Military advantage may involve a variety of considerations, including 22 the security of the attacking force. ... Economic targets of the enemy that 23 indirectly but effectively support and sustain the enemy’s war-fighting capability may also be attacked.” 24 “War is a clash of opposing wills. ... While physical factors are crucial in 25 war, the national will and the leadership’s will are also critical components of war. The will to prosecute or the will to resist can be decisive elements. 26 ... Strategic attack objectives often include producing effects to demoralize 27 the enemy’s leadership, military forces, and population, thus affecting the adversary’s capability to continue the conflict.” 28 ------

1 Both of these statements, taken from different U.S. military manuals and documents, represent direct violations of the Geneva Convention (and, it should be noted, well before the advent of 2 George W. Bush). 3 But McCain didn’t just carry out such illegal orders himself, he willingly voiced support for them, specifically during the 1999 war against Yugoslavia when “water systems, power and 4 heating plants, hospitals, universities, schools, apartment complexes, senior citizens’ homes, 5 bridges, factories, trains, buses, radio and TV stations, the telephone system, oil refineries, em- bassies, marketplaces and more were deliberately destroyed by U.S./NATO planes in a ruthless 6 10-week bombing campaign.” 7 For reference, here is Article 54 of the Geneva convention: ------8 “It is prohibited to attack, destroy, remove, or render useless objects 9 indispensable to the survival of the civilian population, such as foodstuffs, crops, livestock, drinking water installations and supplies, and irrigation 10 works, for the specific purpose of denying them for their sustenance value to the civilian population or to the adverse Party, whatever the motive, 11 whether in order to starve out civilians, to cause them to move away, or for 12 any other motive.”

13 ------14 McCain, and the entire U.S. political and military establishment, also supported the wholesale 15 bombing of Iraq’s water puriﬁcation plants during the ﬁrst Gulf War. And this was no ordinary 16 war crime, it was a planned genocide. Documents released in 2000 revealed that the U.S. had studied in detail all aspects of Iraq’s water system, had planned a strategy for preventing Iraq 17 from reconstructing that system (via sanctions), and knew in advance that “this could lead to 18 increased incidences, if not epidemics of disease.” Indeed it did, with more than half a million Iraqi children dead as a result, one of the greatest war crimes in history, carried out by the next 19 generation of U.S. pilots who followed John McCain, and with John McCain’s full-throated support. 20 John McCain—war criminal then, war criminal now, war criminal forever. To be clear, he is 21 far from the only one currently, or previously, serving in the U.S. government or U.S. military. But, at the moment, he is the only one for whom the entire ruling class, with the lone exception 22 of Donald Trump, is rushing to assure the American public that he was a war hero, before the 23 truth gets more closely examined.

15 McCain and the POW Cover-Up 16 The “war hero” candidate buried information about POWs left behind in Vietnam. By Sydney Schanberg • July 1, 2010 17 SOURCE: 18 http://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/mccain-and-the-pow-cover-up/

19 Eighteen months ago, TAC publisher Ron Unz discovered an astonishing account of the role the 2008 Republican presidential nominee, John McCain, had played in suppressing information about what happened to 20 American soldiers missing in action in Vietnam. Below, we present in full Sydney Schanberg’s explosive story.

21 John McCain, who has risen to political prominence on his image as a Vietnam POW war hero, has, inexplicably, 22 worked very hard to hide from the public stunning information about American prisoners in Vietnam who, unlike him, didn’t return home. Throughout his Senate career, McCain has quietly sponsored and pushed into 23 federal law a set of prohibitions that keep the most revealing information about these men buried as classiﬁ ed 24 documents. Thus the war hero who people would logically imagine as a determined crusader for the interests of POWs and their families became instead the strange champion of hiding the evidence and closing the books. 25 Almost as striking is the manner in which the mainstream press has shied from reporting the POW story 26 and McCain’s role in it, even as the Republican Party has made McCain’s military service the focus of his presidential campaign. Reporters who had covered the Vietnam War turned their heads and walked in other 27 directions. McCain doesn’t talk about the missing men, and the press never asks him about them.

28 The sum of the secrets McCain has sought to hide is not small. There exists a telling mass of ofﬁ cial documents, radio intercepts, witness depositions, satellite photos of rescue symbols that pilots were trained to use, electronic messages from the ground containing the individual code numbers given to airmen, a rescue mission by a special forces unit that was aborted twice by Washington—and even sworn testimony by two Defense secretaries that Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 28 Exhibit F John McCain And The POW Cover-Up - Page 2 of 12

1 “men were left behind.” This imposing body of evidence suggests that a large number—the documents indicate probably hundreds—of the U.S. prisoners held by Vietnam were not returned when the peace treaty was signed in 2 January 1973 and Hanoi released 591 men, among them Navy combat pilot John S. McCain.

3 Mass of Evidence

4 The Pentagon had been withholding signiﬁ cant information from POW families for years. What’s more, the Pentagon’s POW/MIA operation had been publicly shamed by internal whistleblowers and POW families for 5 holding back documents as part of a policy of “debunking” POW intelligence even when the information was 6 obviously credible.

7 The pressure from the families and Vietnam veterans ﬁ nally forced the creation, in late 1991, of a Senate Select Committee on POW/MIA Affairs. The chairman was John Kerry. McCain, as a former POW, was its most pivotal 8 member. In the end, the committee became part of the debunking machine.

9 One of the sharpest critics of the Pentagon’s performance was an insider, Air Force Lt. Gen. Eugene Tighe, who headed the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) during the 1970s. He openly challenged the Pentagon’s position that 10 no live prisoners existed, saying that the evidence proved otherwise. McCain was a bitter opponent of Tighe, who was eventually pushed into retirement. 11 Included in the evidence that McCain and his government allies suppressed or sought to discredit is a transcript of 12 a senior North Vietnamese general’s brieﬁ ng of the Hanoi politburo, discovered in Soviet archives by an American 13 scholar in 1993. The brieﬁ ng took place only four months before the 1973 peace accords. The general, Tran Van Quang, told the politburo members that Hanoi was holding 1,205 American prisoners but would keep many of them 14 at war’s end as leverage to ensure getting war reparations from Washington.

15 Throughout the Paris negotiations, the North Vietnamese tied the prisoner issue tightly to the issue of reparations. They were adamant in refusing to deal with them separately. Finally, in a Feb. 2, 1973 formal letter to Hanoi’s 16 premier, Pham Van Dong, Nixon pledged $3.25 billion in “postwar reconstruction” aid “without any political conditions.” But he also attached to the letter a codicil that said the aid would be implemented by each party “in 17 accordance with its own constitutional provisions.” That meant Congress would have to approve the appropriation, and Nixon and Kissinger knew well that Congress was in no mood to do so. The North Vietnamese, whether or not 18 they immediately understood the double-talk in the letter, remained skeptical about the reparations promise being honored—and it never was. Hanoi thus appears to have held back prisoners—just as it had done when the French 19 were defeated at Dien Bien Phu in 1954 and withdrew their forces from Vietnam. In that case, France paid ransoms for prisoners and brought them home. 20

21 In a private briefi ng in 1992, high-level CIA offi cials told me that as the years passed and the ransom never came, it became more and more diffi cult for either government to admit that it knew from the start about the 22 unacknowledged prisoners. Those prisoners had not only become useless as bargaining chips but also posed a risk to Hanoi’s desire to be accepted into the international community. The CIA offi cials said their intelligence indicated 23 strongly that the remaining men—those who had not died from illness or hard labor or torture—were eventually executed. 24 My own research, detailed below, has convinced me that it is not likely that more than a few—if any—are alive in 25 captivity today. (That CIA briefi ng at the Agency’s Langley, Virginia, headquarters was conducted “off the record,” but because the evidence from my own reporting since then has brought me to the same conclusion, I felt there was 26 no longer any point in not writing about the meeting.) 27 For many reasons, including the absence of a political constituency for the missing men other than their families 28 and some veterans’ groups, very few Americans are aware of the POW story and of McCain’s role in keeping it out of public view and denying the existence of abandoned POWs. That is because McCain has hardly been alone in his campaign to hide the scandal.

Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 29 Exhibit F John McCain And The POW Cover-Up - Page 3 of 12

1 The Arizona senator, now the Republican candidate for president, has actually been following the lead of every 2 White House since Richard Nixon’s, and thus of every CIA director, Pentagon chief, and national security adviser, not to mention Dick Cheney, who was George H.W. Bush’s Defense secretary. Their biggest accomplice has been 3 an indolent press, particularly in Washington.

4 McCain’s Role 5 An early and critical McCain secrecy move involved 1990 legislation that started in the House of Representatives. 6 A brief and simple document, it was called “the Truth Bill” and would have compelled complete transparency about prisoners and missing men. Its core sentence reads: “[The] head of each department or agency which holds 7 or receives any records and information, including live-sighting reports, which have been correlated or possibly correlated to United States personnel listed as prisoner of war or missing in action from World War II, the Korean 8 conflict and the Vietnam conflict, shall make available to the public all such records held or received by that department or agency.” 9 Bitterly opposed by the Pentagon (and thus McCain), the bill went nowhere. Reintroduced the following year, 10 it again disappeared. But a few months later, a new measure, known as “the McCain Bill,”suddenly appeared. By creating a bureaucratic maze from which only a fraction of the documents could emerge—only records that 11 revealed no POW secrets—it turned the Truth Bill on its head. The McCain bill became law in 1991 and remains so today. So crushing to transparency are its provisions that it actually spells out for the Pentagon and other agencies 12 several rationales, scenarios, and justifications for not releasing any information at all—even about prisoners 13 discovered alive in captivity. Later that year, the Senate Select Committee was created, where Kerry and McCain ultimately worked together to bury evidence. 14 McCain was also instrumental in amending the Missing Service Personnel Act, which had been strengthened in 15 1995 by POW advocates to include criminal penalties, saying, “Any government official who knowingly and willfully withholds from the file of a missing person any information relating to the disappearance or whereabouts 16 and status of a missing person shall be fined as provided in Title 18 or imprisoned not more than one year or both.” A year later, in a closed House-Senate conference on an unrelated military bill, McCain, at the behest of 17 the Pentagon, attached a crippling amendment to the act, stripping out its only enforcement teeth, the criminal penalties, and reducing the obligations of commanders in the field to speedily search for missing men and to report 18 the incidents to the Pentagon.

19 About the relaxation of POW/MIA obligations on commanders in the field, a public McCain memo said, “This transfers the bureaucracy involved out of the [battle] field to Washington.” He wrote that the original legislation, if 20 left intact, “would accomplish nothing but create new jobs for lawyers and turn military commanders into clerks.” 21 McCain argued that keeping the criminal penalties would have made it impossible for the Pentagon to find staffers 22 willing to work on POW/MIA matters. That’s an odd argument to make. Were staffers only “willing to work” if they were allowed to conceal POW records? By eviscerating the law, McCain gave his stamp of approval to the 23 government policy of debunking the existence of live POWs.

24 McCain has insisted again and again that all the evidence—documents, witnesses, satellite photos, two Pentagon chiefs’ sworn testimony, aborted rescue missions, ransom offers apparently scorned—has been woven together 25 by unscrupulous deceivers to create an insidious and unpatriotic myth. He calls it the “bizarre rantings of the MIA hobbyists.” He has regularly viliﬁed those who keep trying to pry out classiﬁed documents as “hoaxers,” 26 “charlatans,” “conspiracy theorists,” and “dime-store Rambos.” 27 Some of McCain’s fellow captives at Hoa Lo prison in Hanoi didn’t share his views about prisoners left behind. 28 Before he died of leukemia in 1999, retired Col. Ted Guy, a highly admired POW and one of the most dogged resisters in the camps, wrote an angry open letter to the senator in an MIA newsletter—a response to McCain’s stream of insults hurled at MIA activists. Guy wrote, “John, does this [the insults] include Senator Bob Smith [a

Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 30 Exhibit F John McCain And The POW Cover-Up - Page 4 of 12

1 New Hampshire Republican and activist on POW issues] and other concerned elected ofﬁcials? Does this include the families of the missing where there is overwhelming evidence that their loved ones were ‘last known alive’? 2 Does this include some of your fellow POWs?”

3 It’s not clear whether the taped confession McCain gave to his captors to avoid further torture has played a role in his postwar behavior in the Senate. That confession was played endlessly over the prison loudspeaker system 4 at Hoa Lo—to try to break down other prisoners—and was broadcast over Hanoi’s state radio. Reportedly, he confessed to being a war criminal who had bombed civilian targets. The Pentagon has a copy of the confession but 5 will not release it. Also, no outsider I know of has ever seen a non-redacted copy of the debrieﬁng of McCain when 6 he returned from captivity, which is classiﬁed but could be made public by McCain.

7 All humans have breaking points. Many men undergoing torture give confessions, often telling huge lies so their fakery will be understood by their comrades and their country. Few will fault them. But it was McCain who 8 apparently felt he had disgraced himself and his military family. His father, John S. McCain II, was a highly regarded rear admiral then serving as commander of all U.S. forces in the Paciﬁc. His grandfather was also a rear 9 admiral.

10 In his bestselling 1999 autobiography, Faith of My Fathers, McCain says he felt bad throughout his captivity because he knew he was being treated more leniently than his fellow POWs, owing to his high-ranking father and 11 thus his propaganda value. Other prisoners at Hoa Lo say his captors considered him a prize catch and called him the “Crown Prince,” something McCain acknowledges in the book. 12

13 Also in this memoir, McCain expresses guilt at having broken under torture and given the confession. “I felt faithless and couldn’t control my despair,” he writes, revealing that he made two “feeble” attempts at suicide. (In 14 later years, he said he tried to hang himself with his shirt and guards intervened.) Tellingly, he says he lived in “dread” that his father would ﬁnd out about the confession. “I still wince,” he writes, “when I recall wondering if 15 my father had heard of my disgrace.”

16 He says that when he returned home, he told his father about the confession, but “never discussed it at length”— and the admiral, who died in 1981, didn’t indicate he had heard anything about it before. But he had. In the 1999 17 memoir, the senator writes, “I only recently learned that the tape ... had been broadcast outside the prison and had come to the attention of my father.” 18 Is McCain haunted by these memories? Does he suppress POW information because its surfacing would rekindle 19 his feelings of shame? On this subject, all I have are questions. 20 Many stories have been written about McCain’s explosive temper, so volcanic that colleagues are loath to speak 21 openly about it. One veteran congressman who has observed him over the years asked for conﬁdentiality and made this brief comment: “This is a man not at peace with himself.” 22 He was certainly far from calm on the Senate POW committee. He browbeat expert witnesses who came with 23 information about unreturned POWs. Family members who have personally faced McCain and pressed him to end the secrecy also have been treated to his legendary temper. He has screamed at them, insulted them, brought 24 women to tears. Mostly his responses to them have been versions of: How dare you question my patriotism? In 1996, he roughly pushed aside a group of POW family members who had waited outside a hearing room to appeal 25 to him, including a mother in a wheelchair.

26 But even without answers to what may be hidden in the recesses of McCain’s mind, one thing about the POW story is clear: if American prisoners were dishonored by being written off and left to die, that’s something the American 27 public ought to know about. 28 10 Key Pieces of Evidence That Men Were Left Behind

Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 31 Exhibit F John McCain And The POW Cover-Up - Page 5 of 12

1 1. In Paris, where the Vietnam peace treaty was negotiated, the United States asked Hanoi for the list of American prisoners to be returned, fearing that Hanoi would hold some prisoners back. The North Vietnamese refused, saying 2 they would produce the list only after the treaty was signed. Nixon agreed with Kissinger that they had no leverage left, and Kissinger signed the accord on Jan. 27, 1973 without the prisoner list. When Hanoi produced its list of 591 3 prisoners the next day, U.S. intelligence agencies expressed shock at the low number. Their number was hundreds higher. The New York Times published a long, page-one story on Feb. 2, 1973 about the discrepancy, especially 4 raising questions about the number of prisoners held in Laos, only nine of whom were being returned. The headline read, in part, “Laos POW List Shows 9 from U.S.—Document Disappointing to Washington as 311 Were Believed 5 Missing.” And the story, by John Finney, said that other Washington officials “believe the number of prisoners [in 6 Laos] is probably substantially higher.” The paper never followed up with any serious investigative reporting—nor did any other mainstream news organization. 7 2. Two Defense secretaries who served during the Vietnam War testified to the Senate POW committee in 8 September 1992 that prisoners were not returned. James Schlesinger and Melvin Laird, both speaking at a public session and under oath, said they based their conclusions on strong intelligence data—letters, eyewitness reports, 9 even direct radio contacts. Under questioning, Schlesinger chose his words carefully, understanding clearly the volatility of the issue: “I think that as of now that I can come to no other conclusion ... some were left behind.” 10 This ran counter to what President Nixon told the public in a nationally televised speech on March 29, 1973, when the repatriation of the 591 was in motion: “Tonight,” Nixon said, “the day we have all worked and prayed for has 11 finally come. For the first time in 12 years, no American military forces are in Vietnam. All our American POWs are on their way home.” Documents unearthed since then show that aides had already briefed Nixon about the 12 contrary evidence. 13 Schlesinger was asked by the Senate committee for his explanation of why President Nixon would have made such 14 a statement when he knew Hanoi was still holding prisoners. He replied, “One must assume that we had concluded that the bargaining position of the United States ... was quite weak. We were anxious to get our troops out and we 15 were not going to roil the waters...” This testimony struck me as a bombshell. The New York Times appropriately reported it on page one but again there was no sustained follow-up by the Times or any other major paper or 16 national news outlet.

17 3. Over the years, the DIA received more than 1,600 ﬁrst-hand sightings of live American prisoners and nearly 14,000 second-hand reports. Many witnesses interrogated by CIA or Pentagon intelligence agents were deemed 18 “credible” in the agents’ reports. Some of the witnesses were given lie-detector tests and passed. Sources provided me with copies of these witness reports, which are impressive in their detail. A lot of the sightings described a 19 secondary tier of prison camps many miles from Hanoi. Yet the DIA, after reviewing all these reports, concluded that they “do not constitute evidence” that men were alive. 20

21 4. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, listening stations picked up messages in which Laotian military personnel spoke about moving American prisoners from one labor camp to another. These listening posts were manned by 22 Thai communications officers trained by the National Security Agency (NSA), which monitors signals worldwide. The NSA teams had moved out after the fall of Saigon in 1975 and passed the job to the Thai allies. But when the 23 Thais turned these messages over to Washington, the intelligence community ruled that since the intercepts were made by a “third party”—namely Thailand—they could not be regarded as authentic. That’s some Catch-22: the 24 U.S. trained a third party to take over its role in monitoring signals about POWs, but because that third party did the monitoring, the messages weren’t valid. 25 Here, from CIA files, is an example that clearly exposes the farce. On Dec. 27, 1980, a Thai military signal 26 team picked up a message saying that prisoners were being moved out of Attopeu (in southern Laos) by aircraft “at 1230 hours.” Three days later a message was sent from the CIA station in Bangkok to the CIA director’s 27 office in Langley. It read, in part: “The prisoners ... are now in the valley in permanent location (a prison camp 28 at Nhommarath in Central Laos). They were transferred from Attopeu to work in various places ... POWs were formerly kept in caves and are very thin, dark and starving.” Apparently the prisoners were real. But the transmission was declared “invalid” by Washington because the information came from a “third party” and thus

1 could not be deemed credible.

2 5. A series of what appeared to be distress signals from Vietnam and Laos were captured by the government’s satellite system in the late 1980s and early ’90s. (Before that period, no search for such signals had been put in 3 place.) Not a single one of these markings was ever deemed credible. To the layman’s eye, the satellite photos, some of which I’ve seen, show markings on the ground that are identical to the signals that American pilots had 4 been speciﬁcally trained to use in their survival courses—such as certain letters, like X or K, drawn in a special way. Other markings were the secret four-digit authenticator numbers given to individual pilots. But time and 5 again, the Pentagon, backed by the CIA, insisted that humans had not made these markings. What were they, then? 6 “Shadows and vegetation,” the government said, insisting that the markings were merely normal topographical contours like saw-grass or rice-paddy divider walls. It was the automatic response—shadows and vegetation. On 7 one occasion, a Pentagon photo expert refused to go along. It was a missing man’s name gouged into a ﬁeld, he said, not trampled grass or paddy berms. His bosses responded by bringing in an outside contractor who found 8 instead, yes, shadows and vegetation. This refrain led Bob Taylor, a highly regarded investigator on the Senate committee staff who had examined the photographic evidence, to comment to me: “If grass can spell out people’s 9 names and secret digit codes, then I have a newfound respect for grass.”

10 6. On Nov. 11, 1992, Dolores Alfond, the sister of missing airman Capt. Victor Apodaca and chair of the National Alliance of Families, an organization of relatives of POW/MIAs, testiﬁed at one of the Senate committee’s public 11 hearings. She asked for information about data the government had gathered from electronic devices used in a classiﬁed program known as PAVE SPIKE. 12

13 The devices were motion sensors, dropped by air, designed to pick up enemy troop movements. Shaped on one end like a spike with an electronic pod and antenna on top, they were designed to stick in the ground as they fell. Air 14 Force planes would drop them along the Ho Chi Minh trail and other supply routes. The devices, though primarily sensors, also had rescue capabilities. Someone on the ground—a downed airman or a prisoner on a labor gang 15 —could manually enter data into the sensor. All data were regularly collected electronically by U.S. planes ﬂying overhead. Alfond stated, without any challenge or contradiction by the committee, that in 1974, a year after the 16 supposedly complete return of prisoners, the gathered data showed that a person or people had manually entered into the sensors—as U.S. pilots had been trained to do—no less than 20 authenticator numbers that corresponded 17 exactly to the classiﬁed authenticator numbers of 20 U.S. POWs who were lost in Laos. Alfond added, according to the transcript, “This PAVE SPIKE intelligence is seamless, but the committee has not discussed it or released what 18 it knows about PAVE SPIKE.”

19 McCain attended that committee hearing specifically to confront Alfond because of her criticism of the panel’s work. He bellowed and berated her for quite a while. His face turning anger-pink, he accused her of “denigrating” 20 his “patriotism.” The bullying had its effect—she began to cry. 21 After a pause Alfond recovered and tried to respond to his scorching tirade, but McCain simply turned away and 22 stormed out of the room. The PAVE SPIKE file has never been declassified. We still don’t know anything about those 20 POWs. 23 7. As previously mentioned, in April 1993 in a Moscow archive, a researcher from Harvard, Stephen Morris, 24 unearthed and made public the transcript of a briefing that General Tran Van Quang gave to the Hanoi politburo four months before the signing of the Paris peace accords in 1973. 25 In the transcript, General Quang told the Hanoi politburo that 1,205 U.S. prisoners were being held. Quang said 26 that many of the prisoners would be held back from Washington after the accords as bargaining chips for war reparations. General Quang’s report added: “This is a big number. Officially, until now, we published a list of only 27 368 prisoners of war. The rest we have not revealed. The government of the USA knows this well, but it does not 28 know the exact number ... and can only make guesses based on its losses. That is why we are keeping the number of prisoners of war secret, in accordance with the politburo’s instructions.” The report then went on to explain in clear and specific language that a large number would be kept back to ensure reparations.

1 The reaction to the document was immediate. After two decades of denying it had kept any prisoners, Hanoi 2 responded to the revelation by calling the transcript a fabrication.

3 Similarly, Washington—which had over the same two decades refused to recant Nixon’s declaration that all the prisoners had been returned—also shifted into denial mode. The Pentagon issued a statement saying the document 4 “is replete with errors, omissions and propaganda that seriously damage its credibility,” and that the numbers were “inconsistent with our own accounting.” 5

6 Neither American nor Vietnamese ofﬁcials offered any rationale for who would plant a forged document in the Soviet archives and why they would do so. Certainly neither Washington nor Moscow—closely allied with 7 Hanoi—would have any motive, since the contents were embarrassing to all parties, and since both the United States and Vietnam had consistently denied the existence of unreturned prisoners. The Russian archivists simply 8 said the document was “authentic.”

9 8. In his 2002 book, Inside Delta Force, retired Command Sgt. Maj. Eric Haney described how in 1981 his special forces unit, after rigorous training for a POW rescue mission, had the mission suddenly aborted, revived a year 10 later, and again abruptly aborted. Haney writes that this abandonment of captured soldiers ate at him for years and left him disillusioned about his government’s vows to leave no men behind. “Years later, I spoke at length with a 11 former highly placed member of the North Vietnamese diplomatic corps, and this person asked me point-blank: ‘Why did the Americans never attempt to recover their remaining POWs after the conclusion of the war?’” Haney 12 writes. He continued, saying that he came to believe senior government ofﬁcials had called off those missions in 13 1981 and 1982. (His account is on pages 314 to 321 of my paperback copy of the book.)

14 9. There is also evidence that in the first months of Ronald Reagan’s presidency in 1981, the White House received a ransom proposal for a number of POWs being held by Hanoi in Indochina. The offer, which was passed to 15 Washington from an official of a third country, was apparently discussed at a meeting in the Roosevelt Room attended by Reagan, Vice President Bush, CIA director William Casey, and National Security Adviser Richard 16 Allen. Allen confirmed the offer in sworn testimony to the Senate POW committee on June 23, 1992.

17 Allen was allowed to testify behind closed doors and no information was released. But a San Diego Union-Tribune reporter, Robert Caldwell, obtained the portion relating to the ransom offer and reported on it. The ransom request 18 was for $4 billion, Allen testiﬁed. He said he told Reagan that “it would be worth the president’s going along and let’s have the negotiation.” When his testimony appeared in theUnion-Tribune, Allen quickly wrote a letter to the 19 panel, this time not under oath, recanting the ransom story and claiming his memory had played tricks on him. His new version was that some POW activists had asked him about such an offer in a meeting that took place in 1986, 20 when he was no longer in government. “It appears,” he said in the letter, “that there never was a 1981 meeting 21 about the return of POW/MIAs for $4 billion.”

22 But the episode didn’t end there. A Treasury agent on Secret Service duty in the White House, John Syphrit, came forward to say he had overheard part of the ransom conversation in the Roosevelt Room in 1981, when the offer 23 was discussed by Reagan, Bush, Casey, Allen, and other cabinet ofﬁcials.

24 Syphrit, a veteran of the Vietnam War, told the committee he was willing to testify, but they would have to subpoena him. Treasury opposed his appearance, arguing that voluntary testimony would violate the trust between 25 the Secret Service and those it protects. It was clear that coming in on his own could cost Syphrit his career. The committee voted 7 to 4 not to subpoena him. 26 In the committee’s ﬁnal report, dated Jan. 13, 1993 (on page 284), the panel not only chastised Syphrit for his 27 failure to testify without a subpoena (“The committee regrets that the Secret Service agent was unwilling ...”), but 28 noted that since Allen had recanted his testimony about the Roosevelt Room brieﬁng, Syphrit’s testimony would have been “at best, uncorroborated by the testimony of any other witness.” The committee omitted any mention that it had made a decision not to ask the other two surviving witnesses, Bush and Reagan, to give testimony under oath. (Casey had died.)

1 10. In 1990, Col. Millard Peck, a decorated infantry veteran of Vietnam then working at the DIA as chief of the 2 Asia Division for Current Intelligence, asked for the job of chief of the DIA’s Special Office for Prisoners of War and Missing in Action. His reason for seeking the transfer, which was not a promotion, was that he had heard from 3 officials throughout the Pentagon that the POW/MIA office had been turned into a waste-disposal unit for getting rid of unwanted evidence about live prisoners—a “black hole,” these officials called it. 4 Peck explained all this in his telling resignation letter of Feb. 12, 1991, eight months after he had taken the job. He 5 said he viewed it as “sort of a holy crusade” to restore the integrity of the office but was defeated by the Pentagon 6 machine. The four-page, single-spaced letter was scathing, describing the putative search for missing men as “a cover-up.” 7 Peck charged that, at its top echelons, the Pentagon had embraced a “mind-set to debunk” all evidence of prisoners 8 left behind. “That national leaders continue to address the prisoner of war and missing in action issue as the ‘highest national priority,’ is a travesty,” he wrote. “The entire charade does not appear to be an honest effort, and 9 may never have been. ... Practically all analysis is directed to finding fault with the source. Rarely has there been any effective, active follow through on any of the sightings, nor is there a responsive ‘action arm’ to routinely and 10 aggressively pursue leads.”

11 “I became painfully aware,” his letter continued, “that I was not really in charge of my own office, but was merely a figurehead or whipping boy for a larger and totally Machiavellian group of players outside of DIA ... I feel 12 strongly that this issue is being manipulated and controlled at a higher level, not with the goal of resolving it, but 13 more to obfuscate the question of live prisoners and give the illusion of progress through hyperactivity.” He named no names but said these players are “unscrupulous people in the Government or associated with the Government” 14 who “have maintained their distance and remained hidden in the shadows, while using the [POW] Office as a ‘toxic waste dump’ to bury the whole ‘mess’ out of sight.” Peck added that “military officers ... who in some manner have 15 ‘rocked the boat’ [have] quickly come to grief.”

16 Peck concluded, “From what I have witnessed, it appears that any soldier left in Vietnam, even inadvertently, was, in fact, abandoned years ago, and that the farce that is being played is no more than political legerdemain done with 17 ‘smoke and mirrors’ to stall the issue until it dies a natural death.”

18 The disillusioned colonel not only resigned but asked to be retired immediately from active military service. The press never followed up. 19 My Pursuit of the Story 20

21 I covered the war in Cambodia and Vietnam, but came to the POW information only slowly afterward, when military ofﬁcers I knew from that conﬂict began coming to me with maps and POW sightings and depositions by 22 Vietnamese witnesses.

23 I was then city editor of the New York Times, no longer involved in foreign or national stories, so I took the data to the appropriate desks and suggested it was material worth pursuing. There were no takers. Some years later, in 24 1991, when I was an op-ed columnist at Newsday, the aforementioned special Senate committee was formed to probe the POW issue. I saw this as an opening and immersed myself in the reporting. 25 At Newsday, I wrote 36 columns over a two-year period, as well as a four-part series on a trip I took to North 26 Vietnam to report on what happened to one missing pilot who was shot down over the Ho Chi Minh trail and captured when he parachuted down. After Newsday, I wrote thousands more words on the subject for other outlets. 27 Some of the pieces were about McCain’s key role. 28 Though I wrote on many subjects for Life, Vanity Fair, and Washington Monthly, my POW articles appeared in Penthouse, the Village Voice, and APBnews.com. Mainstream publications just weren’t interested. Their disinterest

Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 35 Exhibit F John McCain And The POW Cover-Up - Page 9 of 12

1 was part of what motivated me, and I became one of a very short list of journalists who considered the story important. 2 Serving in the Army in Germany during the Cold War and witnessing combat firsthand as a reporter in India and 3 Indochina led me to have great respect for those who fight for their country. To my mind, we dishonored U.S. troops when our government failed to bring them home from Vietnam after the 591 others were released—and 4 then claimed they didn’t exist. And politicians dishonor themselves when they pay lip service to the bravery and sacrifice of soldiers only to leave untold numbers behind, rationalizing to themselves that it’s merely one of the 5 unfortunate costs of war. 6 John McCain—now campaigning for the White House as a war hero, maverick, and straight shooter—owes the 7 voters some explanations. The press were long ago wooed and won by McCain’s seeming openness, Lone Ranger pose, and self-deprecating humor, which may partly explain their ignoring his record on POWs. In the numerous, 8 lengthy McCain profiles that have appeared of late in papers like theNew York Times, the Washington Post, and the Wall Street Journal, I may have missed a clause or a sentence along the way, but I have not found a single mention 9 of his role in burying information about POWs. Television and radio news programs have been similarly silent.

10 Reporters simply never ask him about it. They didn’t when he ran unsuccessfully for the Republican nomination in 2000. They haven’t now, despite the fact that we’re in the midst of another war—a war he supports and one that 11 has echoes of Vietnam. The only explanation McCain has ever offered for his leadership on legislation that seals POW ﬁles is that he believes the release of such information would only stir up fresh grief for the families of those 12 who were never accounted for in Vietnam. Of the scores of POW families I’ve met over the years, only a few have 13 said they want the books closed without knowing what happened to their men. All the rest say that not knowing is exactly what grieves them. 14 Isn’t it possible that what really worries those intent on keeping the POW documents buried is the public disgust 15 that the contents of those ﬁles would generate?

16 How the Senate Committee Perpetuated the Debunking

17 In its early months, the Senate Select Committee on POW/MIA Affairs gave the appearance of being committed to finding out the truth about the MIAs. As time went on, however, it became clear that they were cooperating in every 18 way with the Pentagon and CIA, who often seemed to be calling the shots, even setting the agendas for certain key hearings. Both agencies held back the most important POW files. Dick Cheney was the Pentagon chief then; Robert 19 Gates, now the Pentagon chief, was the CIA director. 20 Further, the committee failed to question any living president. Reagan declined to answer questions; the committee 21 didn’t contest his refusal. Nixon was given a pass. George H.W. Bush, the sitting president, whose prints were all over this issue from his days as CIA chief in the 1970s, was never even approached. Troubled by these signs, 22 several committee staffers began asking why the agencies they should be probing had been turned into committee partners and decision makers. Memos to that effect were circulated. The staff made the following finding, using 23 intelligence reports marked “credible” that covered POW sightings through 1989: “There can be no doubt that POWs were alive ... as late as 1989.” That finding was never released. Eventually, much of the staff was in 24 rebellion.

25 This internecine struggle continued right up to the committee’s last official act—the issuance of its final report. The Executive Summary, which comprised the first 43 pages, was essentially a whitewash, saying that only “a small 26 number” of POWs could have been left behind in 1973 and that there was little likelihood that any prisoners could still be alive. The Washington press corps, judging from its coverage, seems to have read only this air-brushed 27 summary, which had been closely controlled. 28 But the rest of the 1,221-page Report on POW/MIAs was quite different. Sprinkled throughout are pieces of hard evidence that directly contradict the summary’s conclusions. This documentation established that a significant

Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 36 Exhibit F John McCain And The POW Cover-Up - Page 10 of 12

1 number of prisoners were left behind—and that top government ofﬁcials knew this from the start. These candid ﬁndings were inserted by committee staffers who had unearthed the evidence and were determined not to allow the 2 truth to be sugar-coated.

3 If the Washington press corps did actually read the body of the report and then failed to report its contents, that would be a scandal of its own. The press would then have knowingly ignored the steady stream of findings in the 4 body of the report that refuted the summary and indicated that the number of abandoned men was not small but considerable. The report gave no figures but estimates from various branches of the intelligence community ranged 5 up to 600. The lowest estimate was 150. 6 Highlights of the report that undermine the benign conclusions of the Executive Summary: 7 • Pages 207-209: These three pages contain revelations of what appear to be either massive intelligence failures or 8 bad intentions—or both. The report says that until the committee brought up the subject in 1992, no branch of the intelligence community that dealt with analysis of satellite and lower-altitude photos had ever been informed of the 9 specific distress signals U.S. personnel were trained to use in the Vietnam War, nor had they ever been tasked to look for any such signals at all from possible prisoners on the ground. 10 The committee decided, however, not to seek a review of old photography, saying it “would cause the expenditure 11 of large amounts of manpower and money with no expectation of success.” It might also have turned up lots of distress-signal numbers that nobody in the government was looking for from 1973 to 1991, when the committee 12 opened shop. That would have made it impossible for the committee to write the Executive Summary it seemed 13 determined to write.

14 The failure gets worse. The committee also discovered that the DIA, which kept the lists of authenticator numbers for pilots and other personnel, could not “locate” the lists of these codes for Army, Navy, or Marine pilots. They 15 had lost or destroyed the records. The Air Force list was the only one intact, as it had been preserved by a different intelligence branch. 16 The report concluded, “In theory, therefore, if a POW still living in captivity [today], were to attempt to 17 communicate by ground signal, smuggling out a note or by whatever means possible, and he used his personal authenticator number to conﬁrm his identity, the U.S. government would be unable to provide such conﬁrmation, if 18 his number happened to be among those numbers DIA cannot locate.”

19 It’s worth remembering that throughout the period when this intelligence disaster occurred—from the moment the treaty was signed in 1973 until 1991—the White House told the public that it had given the search for POWs and 20 POW information the “highest national priority.” 21 • Page 13: Even in the Executive Summary, the report acknowledges the existence of clear intelligence, made 22 known to government ofﬁcials early on, that important numbers of captured U.S. POWs were not on Hanoi’s repatriation list. After Hanoi released its list (showing only ten names from Laos—nine military men and one 23 civilian), President Nixon sent a message on Feb. 2, 1973 to Hanoi’s Prime Minister Pham Van Dong saying, “U.S. records show there are 317 American military men unaccounted for in Laos and it is inconceivable that only ten of 24 these men would be held prisoner in Laos.”

25 Nixon was right. It was inconceivable. Then why did the president, less than two months later, on March 29, 1973, announce on national television that “all of our American POWs are on their way home”? 26 On April 13, 1973, just after all 591 men on Hanoi’s ofﬁcial list had returned to American soil, the Pentagon got 27 into step with the president and announced that there was no evidence of any further live prisoners in Indochina 28 (this is on page 248).

• Page 91: A lengthy footnote provides more conﬁrmation of the White House’s knowledge of abandoned POWs. The footnote reads, “In a telephone conversation with Select Committee Vice-Chairman Bob Smith on December

Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 37 Exhibit F John McCain And The POW Cover-Up - Page 11 of 12

1 29, 1992, Dr. Kissinger said that he had informed President Nixon during the 60-day period after the peace agreement was signed that U.S. intelligence officials believed that the list of prisoners captured in Laos was 2 incomplete. According to Dr. Kissinger, the President responded by directing that the exchange of prisoners on the lists go forward, but added that a failure to account for the additional prisoners after Operation Homecoming would 3 lead to a resumption of bombing. Dr. Kissinger said that the President was later unwilling to carry through on this threat.” 4 When Kissinger learned of the footnote while the final editing of the committee report was in progress,he and his 5 lawyers lobbied fiercely through two Republican allies on the panel—one of them was John McCain—to get the 6 footnote expunged. The effort failed. The footnote stayed intact.

7 • Pages 85-86: The committee report quotes Kissinger from his memoirs, writing solely in reference to prisoners in Laos: “We knew of at least 80 instances in which an American serviceman had been captured alive and 8 subsequently disappeared. The evidence consisted either of voice communications from the ground in advance of capture or photographs and names published by the Communists. Yet none of these men was on the list of POWs 9 handed over after the Agreement.”

10 Then why did he swear under oath to the committee in 1992 that he never had any information that speciﬁc, named soldiers were captured alive and hadn’t been returned by Vietnam? 11 • Page 89: In the middle of the prisoner repatriation and U.S. troop-withdrawal process agreed to in the treaty, when 12 it became clear that Hanoi was not releasing everyone it held, a furious chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Adm. 13 Thomas Moorer, issued an order halting the troop withdrawal until Hanoi complied with the agreement. He cited in particular the known prisoners in Laos. The order was retracted by President Nixon the next day. In 1992, Moorer, 14 by then retired, testiﬁed under oath to the committee that his order had received the approval of the president, the national security adviser, and the secretary of Defense. Nixon, however, in a letter to the committee, wrote, “I do 15 not recall directing Admiral Moorer to send this cable.”

16 The report did not include the following information: behind closed doors, a senior intelligence officer had testified to the POW committee that when Moorer’s order was rescinded, the angry admiral sent a “back-channel” message 17 to other key military commanders telling them that Washington was abandoning known live prisoners. “Nixon and Kissinger are at it again,” he wrote. “SecDef and SecState have been cut out of the loop.” In 1973, the witness 18 was working in the office that processed this message. His name and his testimony are still classified. A source present for the testimony provided me with this information and also reported that in that same time period, Moorer 19 had stormed into Defense Secretary Schlesinger’s office and, pounding on his desk, yelled: “The bastards have still got our men.” Schlesinger, in his own testimony to the committee a few months later, was asked about—and 20 corroborated—this account. 21 • Pages 95-96: In early April 1973, Deputy Defense Secretary William Clements “summoned” Dr. Roger Shields, 22 then head of the Pentagon’s POW/MIA Task Force, to his office to work out “a new public formulation” of the POW issue; now that the White House had declared all prisoners to have been returned, a new spin was needed. 23 Shields, under oath, described the meeting to the committee. He said Clements told him, “All the American POWs are dead.” Shields said he replied: “You can’t say that.” Clements shot back: “You didn’t hear me. They are all 24 dead.” Shields testified that at that moment he thought he was going to be fired, but he escaped from his boss’s office still holding his job. 25 • Pages 97-98: A couple of days later, on April 11, 1973, a day before Shields was to hold a Pentagon press 26 conference on POWs, he and Gen. Brent Scowcroft, then the deputy national security adviser, went to the Oval Office to discuss the “new public formulation” and its presentation with President Nixon. 27

28 The next day, reporters right off asked Shields about missing POWs. Shields fudged his answers. He said, “We have no indications at this time that there are any Americans alive in Indochina.” But he went on to say that there had not been “a complete accounting” of those lost in Laos and that the Pentagon would press on to account for the missing—a seeming acknowledgement that some Americans were still alive and unaccounted for.

Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 38 Exhibit F John McCain And The POW Cover-Up - Page 12 of 12

1 The press, however, seized on Shields’s denials. One headline read, “POW Unit Boss: No Living GIs Left in 2 Indochina.”

3 • Page 97: The POW committee, knowing that Nixon taped all his meetings in the Oval Office, sought the tape of that April 11, 1973 Nixon-Shields-Scowcroft meeting to find out what Nixon had been told and what he had 4 said about the evidence of POWs still in Indochina. The committee also knew there had been other White House meetings that centered on intelligence about live POWs. A footnote on page 97 states that Nixon’s lawyers said 5 they would provide access to the April 11 tape “only if the Committee agreed not to seek any other White House 6 recordings from this time period.” The footnote says that the committee rejected these terms and got nothing. The committee never made public this request for Nixon tapes until the brief footnote in its 1993 report. 7 McCain’s Catch-22 8 None of this compelling evidence in the committee’s full report dislodged McCain from his contention that the 9 whole POW issue was a concoction by deluded purveyors of a “conspiracy theory.” But an honest review of the full report, combined with the other documentary evidence, tells the story of a frustrated and angry president, and his 10 national security adviser, furious at being thwarted at the peace table by a small, much less powerful country that refused to bow to Washington’s terms. That president seems to have swallowed hard and accepted a treaty that left 11 probably hundreds of American prisoners in Hanoi’s hands, to be used as bargaining chips for reparations. 12 Maybe Nixon and Kissinger told themselves that they could get the prisoners home after some time had passed. 13 But perhaps it proved too hard to undo a lie as big as this one. Washington said no prisoners were left behind, and Hanoi swore it had returned all of them. How could either side later admit it had lied? Time went by and as neither 14 side budged, telling the truth became even more difficult and remote. The public would realize that Washington knew of the abandoned men all along. The truth, after men had been languishing in foul prison cells, could get 15 people impeached or thrown in jail.

16 Which brings us to today, when the Republican candidate for president is the contemporary politician most responsible for keeping the truth about this matter hidden. Yet he says he’s the right man to be the commander in 17 chief, and his credibility in making this claim is largely based on his image as a POW hero.

18 On page 468 of the 1,221-page report, McCain parsed his POW position oddly, “We found no compelling evidence to prove that Americans are alive in captivity today. There is some evidence—though no proof—to suggest only 19 the possibility that a few Americans may have been kept behind after the end of America’s military involvement in Vietnam.” 20

21 “Evidence though no proof.” Clearly, no one could meet McCain’s standard of proof as long as he is leading a government crusade to keep the truth buried. 22 To this reporter, this sounds like a significant story and a long overdue opportunity for the press to finally dig into 23 the archives to set the historical record straight—and even pose some direct questions to the candidate. ______24 Sydney Schanberg has been a journalist for nearly 50 years.

14 by15 Stewart Rhodes , August 5, 2016 16 SOURCE: https://www.oathkeepers.org/breaking-news-john-mccains-1969-tokyo-rose-propaganda-recording-released/ 17 The “Songbird” Traitor, Doing His Fake Hero Act, Begins His Rise to Power An18 audio recording has surfaced proving that U.S. Senator John McCain collaborated with the North V19ietnamese by recording a “Tokyo Rose”-style propaganda message that was broadcast on North Vietnamese radio in 1969. For20 many years, American former P.O.W.s who were in the “Hanoi Hilton” North Vietnamese prison with John21 McCain called him a “Songbird” who collaborated with the enemy against his own country. They accused him of turning against them and against his own country in exchange for preferential treatment while many22 of the actually brave and honorable American P.O.W.s endured torture and denial of medical care and food23 for refusing to collaborate. The P.O.W.s branded McCain a traitor who was no hero, but nonetheless used his fake hero status to rise to political power. 24 But we only had their word against his – until now. Now, from the U.S. National Archives comes the proof 25 of their allegations; McCain, by his own words, WAS in fact a traitor who collaborated with the enemy by recording26 a “Tokyo Rose” statement condemning his own nation by admitting “crimes” against the North Vietnamese people, stating “I, as a U.S. airman, am guilty of crimes against the Vietnamese country and people.”27 McCain’s recorded statement also painted a picture of humane treatment of prisoners even though he knew28 many of his fellow Americans were being tortured and denied medical care and adequate food. In the recording he is heard to say “I received this kind treatment and food even though I came here as an aggressor

4 John McCain, Traitor and Songbird, sings for his masters Las 5 year, I (Stewart Rhodes) was attacked by the left wing media for calling McCain a traitor who deserved to be tried for treason (for his support for the use of military detention and military tribunals for Americans, rather 6 than a jury trial as required by our Constitution), and then, once convicted, deserved to suffer the usual punishment 7 for someone convicted of treason, which is to be hung by the neck until dead. Turns out I was right. He IS a traitor, and now there is direct evidence to back that up, in addition to his horrid voting record against 8 the Constitution. Well, now, can we finally try him for treason and then sentence him accordingly? Or will 9 he, like Hillary Clinton, get a pass on his crimes despite direct, smoking gun evidence, because both of them are part of the political elite? You already know the answer to that. ------10 Truenews.com is to be commended for their work in making this recording public, after all these years. Here 11 is what they have to say about this: (TRUNEWS)12 U.S. Senator John McCain recorded a Tokyo Rose-style propaganda message that was broadcast on North Vietnamese radio in 1969. 13 TRUNEWS acquired the audio recording in cooperation with WeSearchR.com, a new media company founded14 by Charles Johnson. The 1969 North Vietnamese radio broadcast has never been heard in the United States of America. In fact, there15 has never been any knowledge that such a recording existed. The audio recording was found in a misplaced16 file in the National Archives in Washington, D.C. The broadcast was recorded by the Foreign Broadcast Information Service, a branch of the CIA that monitored international shortwave and foreign radio broadcasts.17 Lt.18 Commander John McCain was shot down over Hanoi by a North Vietnamese missile while flying his 23rd bombing mission. Both of his arms and one leg were broken. He was pulled ashore by North Vietnamese who took19 him to a prison known by POWs as the “Hanoi Hilton.” McCain was a prisoner of war for five and a half years. He was released on March 14, 1973, and returned to 20 the United States of America as a war hero. His POW legacy propelled McCain to victory in a race for a U.S. Congressional21 seat in Arizona in 1982. He replaced Barry Goldwater in the Senate in 1986. – See more at: http://www.trunews.com/article/john-mccains-1969-tokyo-rose-propaganda-recording- 22 released#sthash.JAKZReP3.HpuKMBBb.dpuf ------23 Here is a transcript of the recording: T24o the Vietnamese people and the government of the DRVN: From25 John Sidney McCain, 624787, Lieutenant Commander, U.S. Navy, born 29 August, 1936, Panama, home state Oregon. Shot down 26 October, 1967, A-4E aircraft. I,26 as a U.S. airman, am guilty of crimes against the Vietnamese country and people. I bombed their cities, towns and27 villages and caused many injuries, even deaths, for the people of Vietnam. I was captured in the capital city of Hanoi, while attacking it. After I was captured, I was taken to the hospital in28 Hanoi, where I received very good medical treatment. I was given an operation on my leg, which allowed me to walk again, and a cast on my right arm, which was badly broken in three places.

1 The doctors were very good and they knew a great deal about the practice of medicine. I remained in the hospital 2 for some time and regained much of my health and strength. Since I arrived in the camp of detention, I received humane and lenient treatment. I received3 this kind treatment and food even though I came here as an aggressor and the people who I injured have 4 much difﬁculty in their living standards.

8 Note that Trunews.com reports that “the broadcast was recorded by the Foreign Broadcast Information Service, 9 a branch of the CIA that monitored international shortwave and foreign radio broadcasts.” So, the CIA, our supposed Central Intelligence Agency, knew that he was a traitor. Did they report that bit of 10 intelligence to President Nixon? Did they inform the Joint Chief of Staff? Did they even notify McCain’s command?11 Again, you already know the answer to that. What they did is sit on it, and no doubt they “misfiled” it in the National Archives, and let McCain know they had it there, somewhere, and that they could12 have the “misfiling” corrected anytime they wanted, so he would be compliant and do as commanded throughout13 his career. That is how it is done. They had McCain under their control, as a “Manchurian Candidate” from that moment on, which is why it was kept an internal CIA secret all those years, till now. I14 have to wonder if the CIA didn’t just now determine to throw McCain to the wolves for some reason. I’d be15 curious to know how Truenews.com and friends found the recording. Were they given an “anonymous tip?” Regardless, McCain’s goose is now good and cooked. If he had a shred of honor he would resign, but no16 doubt he will try to find a way to worm out of this. But I don’t think it will work. Not this time. And those who recently sided with him against Trump, such as Newt Gingrich, are now on the side of a confirmed 17 Traitor. Again, perfect timing for an implosion of the corrupt GOP Old Guard. Interesting. You can bet Trump will18 use this to full effect. – Stewart Rhodes 19 ------20 UPDATE AND ADDENDUM: Since21 I am getting comments condemning me for calling McCain a traitor for collaborating with the enemy by22 recording that propaganda broadcast for the North Vietnamese, here is my response: First, here is what the Code of Conduct says about this (I have highlighted in bold the most pertinent sections):23 Code24 of Conduct for Members of the United States Armed Forces[3][4][5]

I.25 I am an American, ﬁghting in the forces which guard my country and our way of life. I am prepared to give my life in their defense. 26 II. I will never surrender of my own free will. If in command, I will never surrender the members of my command27 while they still have the means to resist. III. If I am captured I will continue to resist by all means available. I will make every effort to escape and aid 28 others to escape. I will accept neither parole nor special favors from the enemy.

IV 1. If I become a prisoner of war, I will keep faith with my fellow prisoners. I will give no information or take part 2 in any action which might be harmful to my comrades. If I am senior, I will take command. If not, I will obey the lawful orders of those appointed over me and will back them up in every way. V .3 When questioned, should I become a prisoner of war, I am required to give name, rank, service number and 4 date of birth. I will evade answering further questions to the utmost of my ability. I will make no oral or written statements disloyal to my country and its allies or harmful to their cause VI. 5 I will never forget that I am an American, ﬁghting for freedom, responsible for my actions, and dedicated to 6 the principles which made my country free. I will trust in my God and in the United States of America. It really goes without saying that this recording shows that McCain violated that Code of Conduct. Doing so 7 was not excusable because of the “duress” he was under. In fact, the same folks who dug this recording up also say they have his own statements to show he was not under duress: http://gotnews.com/breaking- 8 senjohnmccain-not-duress-north-vietnam-blabbed-military-info-voiced-communist-propaganda/ Even 9 if he were actually under duress, that would not absolve him of his duty to “make no oral or written statements disloyal to my country and its allies or harmful to their cause.” Nor does it absolve him of his duty to10 “accept neither parole nor special favors from the enemy“ which is exactly what the other POWs accused McCain11 of doing. Medal of Honor recipient James Stockdale, in contrast to McCain, was actually brutally tortured and still refused12 to collaborate with the enemy. Let’s compare and contrast his actions to that of McCain: ------13

Stockdale14 was held as a prisoner of war in the Hoa Lo prison (the infamous “Hanoi Hilton”) for the next seven15 and a half years. As the senior Naval officer, he was one of the primary organizers of prisoner resistance. Tortured routinely and denied medical attention for the severely damaged leg he suffered during capture,16 Stockdale created and enforced a code of conduct for all prisoners which governed torture, secret communications, and behavior. In the summer of 1969, he was locked in leg irons in a bath stall and routinely 17 tortured and beaten. When told by his captors that he was to be paraded in public, Stockdale slit his scalp with18 a razor to purposely disfigure himself so that his captors could not use him as propaganda. When they covered his head with a hat, he beat himself with a stool until his face was swollen beyond recognition. When Stockdale19 was discovered with information that could implicate his friends’ “black activities,” he slit his wrists so20 they could not torture him into confession. .... Stockdale21 was one of eleven prisoners known as the “Alcatraz Gang“: George Thomas Coker; George McKnight;22 Jeremiah Denton; Harry Jenkins; Sam Johnson; James Mulligan; Howard Rutledge; Robert Shumaker; Ronald Storz; and Nels Tanner. These individuals had been leaders of resistance activities while in23 captivity and thus were separated from other captives and placed in solitary confinement. “Alcatraz” was a special facility in a courtyard behind the North Vietnamese Ministry of National Defense, located about one 24 mile away from Hoa Lo Prison. In Alcatraz, each of the prisoners was kept in an individual windowless and concrete25 cell measuring 3 by 9 feet (0.9 by 2.7 m) with a light bulb kept on around the clock, and they were locked in leg irons each night.[9][10][11][12][13] Of the eleven, Storz died in captivity there in 1970. In26 a business book by James C. Collins called Good to Great, Collins writes about a conversation he had with Stockdale27 regarding his coping strategy during his period in the Vietnamese POW camp.[14] I never lost faith in the end of the story, I never doubted not only that I would get out, but also that I would prevail28 in the end and turn the experience into the defining event of my life, which, in retrospect, I would not trade.[15]

Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 53 Exhibit L John McCain - A Traitor Who Turned Against His Own Country - Page 5 of 7

1 When Collins asked who didn’t make it out of Vietnam, Stockdale replied: Oh, 2 that’s easy, the optimists. Oh, they were the ones who said, ‘We’re going to be out by Christmas.’ And Christmas would come, and Christmas would go. Then they’d say, ‘We’re going to be out by Easter.’ And Easter 3 would come, and Easter would go. And then Thanksgiving, and then it would be Christmas again. And they 4 died of a broken heart.[15] Stockdale then added: This 5 is a very important lesson. You must never confuse faith that you will prevail in the end—which you can never afford to lose—with the discipline to confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever 6 they might be.[15] 7 Stockdale was released as a prisoner of war on February 12, 1973 during Operation Homecoming. His shoulders 8 had been wrenched from their sockets, his leg shattered by angry villagers and a torturer, and his back 9 broken. On March 4, 1976, Stockdale received the Medal of Honor. Stockdale filed charges against two other officers (Marine10 Corps Lieutenant Colonel Edison W. Miller and Navy Captain Walter E. “Gene” Wilber) who, he felt, had given aid and comfort to the enemy. However, the Navy Department under the leadership of 11 then-Secretary of the Navy John Warner took no action and retired these men “in the best interests of the Navy12 .”[16][17] Debilitated by his captivity and mistreatment, Stockdale could not stand upright and could barely walk upon his13 return to the United States, which prevented his return to active flying status. In deference to his previous service,14 the Navy kept him on active duty, steadily promoting him over the next few years before he retired as a vice admiral. He completed his career by serving as President of the Naval War College from October 13, 1977,15 until August 22, 1979.

16 And here is Stockdale’s Medal of Honor Citation: For17 conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty while senior naval officer in the Prisoner of War camps of North Vietnam. Recognized by his captors as the leader in the Prisoners’18 of War resistance to interrogation and in their refusal to participate in propaganda exploitation, Rear19 Adm. Stockdale was singled out for interrogation and attendant torture after he was detected in a covert communications attempt. Sensing the start of another purge, and aware that his earlier efforts at self- disfi20 guration to dissuade his captors from exploiting him for propaganda purposes had resulted in cruel and agonizing21 punishment, Rear Adm. Stockdale resolved to make himself a symbol of resistance regardless of personal sacrifice. He deliberately inflicted a near-mortal wound to his person in order to convince his captors of22 his willingness to give up his life rather than capitulate. He was subsequently discovered and revived by the23 North Vietnamese who, convinced of his indomitable spirit, abated in their employment of excessive harassment and torture toward all of the Prisoners of War. By his heroic action, at great peril to himself, he earned24 the everlasting gratitude of his fellow prisoners and of his country. Rear Adm. Stockdale’s valiant leadership and extraordinary courage in a hostile environment sustain and enhance the finest traditions of the 25 U.S. Naval Service (emphasis added). ------26 Now THAT is a hero. And that is also a stellar example of an officer who lead by example, and put the well being27 of his men first, above himself, and loyalty to his country first, above himself, and his actions directly saved28 his men from further torture, bolstered their morale, and likely saved lives – the exact opposite of

Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 54 Exhibit L John McCain - A Traitor Who Turned Against His Own Country - Page 6 of 7

1 McCain’s actions. Please do not tell me that John McCain somehow deserves a “pass” for his behavior because 2 of supposed duress (with all evidence pointing to him singing like a bird before suffering anything approaching what Stockdale endured) and when a real man, Stockdale, endured real duress, to say the least, and 3 refused to submit and collaborate. And please don’t try to tell me I have no right to condemn him unless 4 I too was a POW. Stockdale tried to press charges against two other ofﬁcers who were POWs, for corroborating with the enemy, and I have no doubt he would have done the same with McCain had he known the 5 full truth. And many of the men who did know the truth did their best to expose it, but were brushed aside and 6 ignored because McCain’s daddy was an admiral and Commander in Chief of the Paciﬁc Fleet. Many of those men are now gone, and can no longer speak out. So we will speak for them. Here 7 is what John McCain himself had to say about the Code of Conduct and the harm caused by prisoners that collaborated with the enemy: 8

If 9he were just some poor Joe who endured hardship as a prisoner, I could understand and by sympathetic to him breaking under pressure and collaborating. But he was not just some average Joe. He was an Admiral’s 10 son, and he rode a wave of propaganda of him being some kind of hero into Congress, and he has been there ever11 since, and because of his status as a “war hero” he has received deference, forgiveness for his repeated sins against the Constitution, and repeated reelection so he can violate it yet again, term after term. He was no12 war hero. A collaborator simply is not a hero. He is, in fact, the opposite. Maybe someone like that can be13 forgiven, or considered with sympathy, but he sure as hell should not be hailed as some kind of hero, or “national treasure” like Newt Gingrich just called McCain. Stockdale was a real hero. Calling McCain a hero cheapens14 that term. And while for years people asserted that he made this recording (which he denied), the public15 never heard it, until now. – Stewart Rhodes ------16 COMMENT BY NAVY JACK: 17 The Silver Star was awarded to John McCain for resisting extreme mental and physical cruelties inﬂicted upon18 him by his captors in an attempt to obtain a false confession for propaganda purposes. McCain later admitted to signing a confession during his captivity that read “I am a black criminal and I have performed 19 deeds of an air pirate.” McCain denied having made the taped confession you have just heard. All20 pilots during the Vietnam War received the following general order: If you are captured and tortured, you must resist, avoid, or evade, to the best of your ability, all enemy efforts to21 obtain statements or actions that will help the enemy. Examples of statements or actions to resist that are harmful22 to the US, its allies, or other prisoners, include: • Oral or written confessions. •23 Questionnaires or personal history statements. •24 Propaganda recordings and broadcasts. • Appeals to other PWs and appeals for surrender or peace. •25 Engagement in self-criticism. • Oral or written statements or communications on behalf of the enemy. 26 The enemy might use any confession or statement to convict you as a war criminal. It prolongs your right to repatriation27 until you serve a prison sentence. Article V of the Code of Conduct: 28

1 When questioned, should I become a prisoner of war, I am required to give name, rank, service number, and 2 date of birth. I will evade answering further questions to the utmost of my ability. I will make no oral or written statements disloyal to my country or its allies or harmful to their cause. John 3 McCain has received his status and position as a Senator with false claims and false valor. It’s one thing to 4 break down under torture, if he actually was tortured. It is another thing altogether to accept decorations, political advancement and public acclaim based on these lies. ------5 6 About Author Stewart Rhodes Stewart 7 Rhodes Stewart is the founder and National President of Oath Keepers.

10 A new book by Cliff Schechter has the inside scoop on John McCain. And if you want to know why John McCain was called “McNasty” in high school, read this. 11

12 At one point, Cindy playfully twirled McCain’s hair and said, “You’re getting a little thin up there.” McCain’s face reddened, and he responded, 13 “At least I don’t plaster on the makeup like a trollop, you cunt.” McCain’s 14 excuse was that it had been a long day. If elected president of the United States, McCain would have many long days. 15

16 This event was witnessed by 3 reporters and two aides of John McCain, Doug Cole and Wes Gullett. 17 Besides being a complete asshole, which John McNasty is, the issues here are John McCain’s 18 temperament and his mental sanity. 19 Senator McNasty has referred to Republican colleagues as follows. He told Senator Cornyn 20 “F-ck you,” said to Senator Grassley “I’m calling you a f--king jerk” and once told Senator 21 Domenici, “Only an a**hole would put together a budget like this.”

22 Perhaps this is why Senator Cochan, right wing Mississippi Republican once said, “The idea of 23 John McCain as GOP nominee sends a chill down my spine.”

24 If a Democrat acted the way John McCain has acted, the press would be calling him mentally 25 unstable, a lunatic, angry, extreme, and unﬁ t for public ofﬁ ce. The press would claim that the person should check into a mental hospital. 26 In John McCain, the Republicans have nominated a 71 year old psycho who calls his wife a 27 cunt and a trollop. This is the same 28 John McCain who refers to Asians as “gooks” and says “I hate the gooks.”

John McCain, cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo.

19 The McCain Institute claims it exists to fi ght human traffi cking, but despite receiving millions 20 in donations from Saudi Arabia, the Rothschilds, and Bloomberg, it has been revealed that none of the money was spent on fi ghting human traffi cking. 21

22 Funds from the McCain Presidential Campaign were also quietly funneled into the McCain Institute’s coffers raising the possibility the Institute exists as a money laundering front. 23 The McCain Institute is a huge operation featuring upwards of 80 people including dozens 24 of full time staff and board members including Ashton Kutcher and Lady Lynne Forrester de 25 Rothschild.

26 Saudi Arabia donated $1,000,000 to the McCain Institute in 2014 in what looks suspiciously 27 like a Clinton Foundation style pay-for-play “donation”, leading many to believe the secret donations explain why he has a certain “viewpoints” about the Middle East, and keeps making 28 secret trips to Syria.

1 The McCain Institute is a huge operation featuring upwards of 80 people including dozens 2 of full time staff and board members including Ashton Kutcher and Lady Lynne Forrester de 3 Rothschild.

4 With millions of dollars in donations from powerful corporations, governments and 5 billionaire bankers, not to mention John McCain’s presidential campaign money, you would think the Institute is doing all sorts of great things to stop human trafﬁcking, right? 6

7 You’d be wrong. In 2012 the Institute donated exactly $500,000. In 2013 it was $500,000 again. In 2014 it was increased to $1,500,000.Nice, round numbers. It’s almost as if the 8 Institute did nothing else all year except sign one check to keep up the pretense they were 9 actually doing what they tell the public they do.

10 And to whom or what did that $2.5 million go to? Some human trafﬁcking superﬁghter, you would think, right? 11

12 You’d be wrong again.

13 It all – every last penny – went to the Arizona State University Foundation (scroll down 14 through the tax returns to see the disclosure).

15 Which, by the way, does not appear to have anything whatsoever to do with human 16 trafﬁcking.

17 Are we looking at a money laundering operation here? The McCain Institute is starting to 18 look an awful lot like the bogus Clinton Foundation.

Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 64 Exhibit Q McCain Campaign Manager Arrested - Pedophelie - Page 1 of 3

22 A wide-ranging investigation has been launched into allegations that a well-known Pueblo 23 resident has molested many boys over the years, including most recently when he was the 24 manager for Sen. John McCain’s presidential-campaign ofﬁ ce in Pueblo.

25 Under investigation is Jeffrey Claude Bartleson, 52, who was arrested Jan. 29 and then re-

26 arrested Wednesday after a campaign worker in the McCain ofﬁ ce told police she believed Bartleson molested one of her sons. 27 Sgt. Brett Wilson, who heads the Pueblo Police Department’s special victims unit, said today 28 that there are “several active investigations” involving Bartleson.

Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 65 Exhibit Q McCain Campaign Manager Arrested - Pedophelie - Page 2 of 3

1 He said numerous boys will be interviewed by the two detectives who have been assigned full- time to the case. 2

3 Because of the active nature of the investigation, Wilson said he couldn’t detail the allegations.

4 However, in afﬁdavits ﬁled by police investigators in Pueblo District Court, authorities say that 5 the most recent complaints follow a pattern involving Bartleson that dates to 1982.

6 According to Detective Daniel Anderson, Bartleson has usually positioned himself so he is 7 around children, whether as a Scout master, as a sponsor of the chemical-dependency unit at Pueblo’s Parkview Medical Center, at his church or simply by inviting children to spend the 8 night at his home. 9 In June 2003, then-Rep. Scott McInnis praised Bartleson in a tribute at the U.S. House of Repre- 10 sentatives.

11 In the tribute, McInnis noted that “in his capacity as a foster parent, Jeff has helped several 12 youth in the region through his work with the Young Life Association and the El Pueblo Boys and Girls Ranch.” 13

14 McInnis also noted that Bartleson was instrumental in the foundation and development of the Interfaith Hospitality network, which McInnis described as “one of Pueblo’s newest self-help 15 organizations.” 16 David Dill, chairman of the Pueblo County Republican Party, said today that although Bartleson 17 headed the McCain campaign office in Pueblo, Bartleson does not hold any position with the 18 Pueblo County Republican Party. He attended a few meetings of the organization, but that was the extent of his involvement, said Dill. 19 Dill said he believed that Bartleson directed McCain efforts in southern Colorado. State GOP 20 officials said today they had no contact with Bartleson. 21 The latest arrest stemmed from a report by a woman who worked with Bartleson in the McCain 22 campaign office. 23 According to the woman, she and a co-worker were planning in October to attend a Sarah Palin 24 rally in Colorado Springs but wanted to travel to the Springs the night before. 25 She told police that she mentioned the planned trip to Bartleson. He offered to keep her 5-year- 26 old son overnight in Pueblo and then drive up to Colorado Springs the next day and meet them 27 there.

28 She accepted Bartleson’s offer.

Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 66 Exhibit Q McCain Campaign Manager Arrested - Pedophelie - Page 3 of 3

1 The woman said that her son told her that while at Bartleson’s home, Bartleson insisted on giv- 2 ing him a bath, during which he was sexually molested. Later, said the child, Bartleson forced 3 him into Bartleson’s bed, where he once again was molested.

4 In interviews this week with investigators, the child said that when he tried to get away from 5 Bartleson, he kept pulling him back into the bed. He was ﬁnally able to leave when Bartleson fell asleep. 6

7 The child described Bartleson as “a bad man,” according to the police afﬁdavit. Asked why, the child responded, “because he does things to kids.” 8

9 Detective Anderson said he asked the child how he knew Bartleson did this to kids, and the boy responded that “Mr. Jeff” did this to ﬁve people and he knew that because “Mr. Jeff” told him 10 so.

11 Another alleged victim, according to a police afﬁdavit, said he met Bartleson through the 12 Interfaith Hospitality Network and was molested by him when he stayed at Bartleson’s home. Unknown to him until much later, he also was videotaped by Bartleson while he showered at 13 Bartleson’s house, the youth told police. 14 The young man told police that Bartleson “said if I told anybody, he’d hurt me.” 15

16 Dustin Taylor, the Pueblo detective who interviewed the second youth, said that his story about Bartleson touching his genital area “matches the modus operandi described by other victims 17 coming out against Bartleson.” 18 Capt. Dave Lucero of the Pueblo County Sheriff’s Ofﬁce said that Bartleson is being held on a 19 $150,000 bond for investigation of sex assault on a child.

20 The United States Supreme Court possesses original jurisdiction over 21 matters involving treason. Anthony Camboni, hereby, informs The United States 22 Supreme Court, and Justices of same, of voluntary acts undertaken by John 23 McCain, which constitute treason. 24

25 John McCain has demonstrated requisite criminal intent in performance / 26 attempted performance of substantial acts toward the commission of a crime.

28 John McCain’s public record, public statements, and criminal history, serve

1. Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 71 1 as evidence supportive of Anthony Camboni’s claims. 2

3 The aforementioned indicate John McCain’s intent. John McCain will not

4 voluntarily cease, or desist. John McCain’s engagement in the conduct described,

5 herein, is supportive of Anthony Camboni’s claims.

7 John McCain has personally, and financially, profited from treasonous conduct. John McCain has personally, and financially, profited from fraudulent conduct. The 8 conduct undertaken by John McCain is designed to deceive, thieve, and destroy. 9

10 In addition to John McCain’s public statement(s), and/or confession(s), John 11 McCain has taken measures to aid in the furtherance of a treasonable purpose. John 12 McCain has engaged in a pattern of criminal / treasonous, conduct. John McCain’s 13 criminal / treasonous conduct furthered the commission of criminal violation(s). 14

15 John McCain owes a duty / obligation of allegiance to the legal order, The 16 United States, and The State of Arizona. John McCain has demonstrated intent, and 17 taken action toward violation of his duty, obligation(s). John McCain has breached 18 the covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

20 John McCain’s actions constitute a breach of allegiance, and a breach of

21 faithful support, owed to the sovereignty of The State of Arizona, and the sovereignty

22 of The United States.

23 United States Constitution 24 Article III 25 Section 3. 26 Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying 27 war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid 28 and comfort. No person shall be convicted of treason unless on the

2. Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 72 1 testimony of two witnesses to the same overt act, or on confession 2 in open court. 3 The Congress shall have power to declare the punishment of 4 treason, but no attainder of treason shall work corruption of blood, 5 or forfeiture except during the life of the person attainted. 6 ------7 Overt Act 8 The federal crime of treason contains an overt act requirement. 9 Article III, Section 3, Clause 1, of the U.S. Constitution provides, 10 “No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony 11 of two Witnesses to the same overt Act.” In such a case, an 12 overt act means a step taken to execute a treasonable purpose, 13 as distinguished from mere words or a treasonable sentiment, 14 purpose, or design not resulting in action. It is an act in furtherance 15 of the crime. 16 ------17 overt act 18 n. In criminal law, an action which might be innocent itself, but if 19 part of the preparation and active furtherance of a crime, can be 20 introduced as evidence of a defendant’s participation in a crime. 21 Example: Rental of a van, purchase of explosives, obtaining a 22 map of downtown New York City, and going back and forth to the 23

24 World Trade Center, were each overt acts as part of the terrorist

25 bombing of that building.

26 ------

27 overt act

28 An open, manifest act from which criminality may be implied. An

3. Anthony Camboni v. John McCain 73 1 outward act done in pursuance and manifestation of an intent or 2 design. 3 - An overt act is essential to establish an attempt to commit a crime. 4 It is also a key element in the crime of Treason and has become a 5 component of federal and some state criminal conspiracy laws. 6 ------7

8 I, Anthony Camboni, believe the matters and things contained herein are true. 9
