...While giving short shrift to John Eastman's far right extremism, Haberman & Schmidt provide a useful timeline of how Eastman came to Trump's attention, beginning in mid-2019... nytimes.com/2021/10/02/us/…
...Post-election, Eastman was called on once by a Trump aide in connection w a challenge to PA's election results & once by Trump who asked him to assist w legal challenges to the election results...
...Curious which Trump aide reached out to John Eastman on Christmas Eve about a memo & who else was in the room when he met w Trump & Pence. My guess is Mark Meadows & Cleta Mitchell...
...John Eastman & Cleta Mitchell have served on the board of the Public Interest Legal Foundation fka ActRight Legal Foundation since its inception in 2012....
...In 2013, the Public Interest Legal Foundation focused on the IRS "scandal" which I have amply demonstrated was manufactured. In 2014, the focus changed to manufactured voter fraud scandals w the addition of J. Christian Adams, Hans von Spakovsky & William Davis to the board...
...The current Public Interest Legal Foundation board is comprised of the superstars of voter suppression. Contributions must have poured in after Election Day since PILF hired two new new staff members & jazzed up the website... publicinterestlegal.org/about/board-of…
...The one thing the folks over at the Public Interest Legal Foundation haven't bothered doing is filing the 2019 990 due Nov 15 2020. Another month & the 2020 990 will be due. The onus is on J. Christian Adams since PILF doesn't employ an outside accountant...
...In Aug 2020, @mjs_DC excoriated Eastman for his Newsweek op-ed questioning Kamala Harris' eligibility to serve as VP. Stern went on to skewer other notables at the Claremont Institute... slate.com/news-and-polit…
.. On Oct 6 2020, the Federalist Society, of which John Eastman is a member in good standing, sponsored a debate on the meaning of the constitution’s citizenship clauses bet Eastman & Eugene Volokh (no, I haven't read the transcript & won't)... fedsoc.org/events/born-in…
...In a Family Research Council presentation in June 2015, John Eastman gave a somewhat convoluted & misleading explanation as to why Uganda should reinstate a law mandating life imprisonment for homosexuals... joemygod.blogspot.com/2015/06/nom-ch…
...As noted above, John Eastman is chair of the National Organization For Marriage Educational Fund. I don't have much to say about NOM other than it peaked around 2012 when Neil Corkery was treasurer & Leonord Leo's CPA of choice prepared the 990...
...That's about it for this thread. Will follow up w one about the 990s filed by the Claremont Institute which changed CPAs & accounting policies a couple of years ago.

In a blunt editorial yesterday, Newsday called for Gov Hochul to take over NUMC yesterday & for NUMC Chair Matthew Bruderman to step down. Bruderman, appointed by Bruce Blakeman, bought the chairmanship. (ty @BrockWolf6)...
Matthew Bruderman & his family only began making substantial state & federal donations in 2021, the year Bruce Blakeman ran for Nassau County Executive. Bet 2021 & 2022, those donations totaled $1.25M...
In Feb 2022, one month before Blakeman appointed him NUMC chair, Bruderman held a fundraiser for Lee Zeldinn at his Oyster Bay home that was attended by VP Mike Pence....
7 Nod Hill LLC, 354 Nod Hill LLC & Special Proj LLC were registered in Delaware on June 22 2020 & are directly linked to Steven Bannon & Miles Guo. Given the timing, they may be linked to the Hunter Biden laptop hard drive October Surprise...
Rudy Giuliani's lawyer, Robert Costello, was prob telling the truth when he told Snopes that he received a copy of the HB hard drive in Sept 2020 but as we now know, Steve Bannon had a copy well before then... snopes.com/news/2020/10/1…
Until I read both the federal & state indictments of Steve Bannon, I didn't realize he seized absolute control over WeBuildTheWall's operations in Jan 2019 & was chairman of the WBTW advisory committee...
Bannon's 501c4, Citizens of the American Republic, is labeled "Non-Profit-1" in the fed indictment & "Unindicted Co-Conspirator Entity 1” in the state one. COAR was registered in Dec 2017 & filed a 2018 990...
Until I read the indictments, I also didn't realize Bannon's co-conspirator, Andrew Badolato, was involved w both WBTW & Citizens of the American Republic. Badolato, now 59, is incarcerated in FCI Edgefield & scheduled for release in Oct 2025... cnn.com/2020/08/21/pol…
In the two year period before the 2020 election, Steve Bannon was directly & indirectly involved w three major criminal enterprises. The first was Miles Guo's fraudulent investment scheme. Second was the We Build The Wall scam...
Third is the Epoch Times money laundering scheme. As I noted in a previous thread, Bannon signed on w Weidong "Bill" Guan's production of the film, Red Claws of the Dragon, less than six months before Guan's $67M laundering scheme commenced... cbc.ca/news/politics/…
This September 12 2019 Globe & Mail article about Bannon's involvement in the Red Claws film is very informative. The name of the actual production company is New Realm Studios & NTD (US) owned the distribution rights.... theglobeandmail.com/arts/film/arti…

Bradley Crate & Charles Gantt are treasurers of 300 or so federal political committees per the FEC...
Oh look. @VishBurra reposted Garrett Ziegler's tweet of my 2011 DUI arrest. As I recall, Mr. Burra has an arrest record for drugs. Not sure if he's a convicted felon like Gabby Lipsky's father, Dave.
Like Garrett Ziegler, Vish Burra spent a lot of time making the Hunter Biden laptop hard drive a thing. Happened across @Olivianuzzi's Sept 12 2022 story yesterday about the laptop hard drive saga that mentions Burra... nymag.com/intelligencer/…
No need to read Nuzzi's story to learn about Vish Burra's role in the Hunter Biden laptop hard drive saga. He laid it all out in this Dec 2022 interview on Dinesh D'Souza's YouTube channel...
